Someone asked me this evening why I keep this blog.
What is the point of it?
Do you know, I couldn't really answer them at all.
The point is perhaps that there really is no point at all - its just an excuse to rambe inanely about shit.
I ramble about me mostly, which irritates a lot of people and amuses others.
Some bloggers opine about important issues on the world stage. Some review books, or express clever political philosophies.
Some ore banal and crass. One or two are even pink.
I don't really know and I'm not sure that I care. I've been keeping a diary in pretty much this format for nearly 20 years now (which is a fekkin scary thought), but to my knowledge only an unlucky few have read the previous 18 years worth of that.
I read very convincing argument recently making the point that blogging was an utterly selfish act of sheer indulgence.
Today I have (see - me, me , me already)
- Been to church and taken part in a ten minute dramatisation of Joshua's experience at the Walls Of Jericho
- Opened my soul in testimony and announced the curveball that the good Lord has seen fit to throw at us
- Discussed the effect of ovarian surgery on the conception of children
- Made further study of EB's incredible figure
- Explored Priory Hill Copse and Butlocks Heath reservoir during some time Dad Time with the kids
- Played the Nation 12 album three times and more or less finished the lyrics
- Played The Bedsit Tapes through twice. Incredible. Soft Cell never did anything better or as daring since, excepting perhaps This Last night in Sodom.
- Shared beers in the Junction.
- Discussed over said beers the process of VJing, digital art, Scandinavian music, wood veneer and the local rapist. Twice this year.
- Been interviewed by the police on the way home. Good to see them on the streets
- Watched a woman dressing in awindow
- Chatted online to Kink and pissed off Biscuit. Again.
That's probably enough for one Sunday.
I'd like comments on this please from anyone passing.
Seems more people read this than I deserve.
I have written better entries.
Its like pay to view - never quite delivers the punchline.
Amen
