6.00am
No, we still haven’t left yet – just wait, will you. We’re leaving about 9am, but I couldn’t sleep.
Anyway, I was lying in bed earlier thinking, ‘ain’t the internet bwilliant’. What an incredible way to communicate!
This would have been impossible 15 years ago. And the best thing about this blog is that it’s one way (I think). It’s probably the most powerful communication tool on the planet. Within 10 minutes of me writing this it could be being read by thousands (but not Martin V, obviously – he’s still asleep!) Now that’s power!
I was never a particularly good listener (waddaya mean - ‘we know!’) so this blog suits me perfectly. I can say what I like about you and you can’t get me back. And only I know how many people this link has gone out to, so you have no idea who might be reading this (‘morning, Barak!’). I can be as rude as I want and so may even feature some aspect of one new individual each day. Anyway, I’ve got some photos somewhere of…er …well, never mind. So keep reading ‘cos you might get a mention tomorrow!
Or… I could use it to remind you in very subtle ways about my birthday (12th August). I could slip small references into the text (12 Aug) so that you wouldn’t consciously realize that you were being reminded. (12 August)
‘Course, the flip side to all this is that maybe nobody’s reading this at all! So I’m babbling away like some lonely mad hermit in a cave somewhere ( Wales, probably). (12.8.11)
Or perhaps you could just choose to ignore the comments people post. Bit like listening with your mouth open!
ReplyDeleteHey....I could have some fun here, telling everybody stories about how Martin C never listens to get my own back on him. But then again he probably wouldn't notice. Only joking my Petal.
