I shouldn't be doing this. I originally logged in here to check on plans I'd made for later in the afternoon, but those are postponed and I haven't had access in several days, so I'm sort of snatching an opportunity on someone else's laptop at yet someone else's house. Worse, I'm doing this in a room where someone else is fast asleep, which always makes me feel like a bit of a bastard, because, as well all know, the internet is completely frivolous. Hell, I'm not even supposed to be here today.

Anyway, since I've made the time, I'm going to use it. For starters, someone of the readings of my fellow journalists have brought to light a few things for me. 1) I'm comfortable with my lack of thought. Some of y'all border on what I consider neurotic. 2) I need to stop getting into the habit of abandoning people just because they get busy in their lives for a few weeks. I do it frequently and I really should stop, but...on the other hand, one wonders if it's always my job to keep up the lines of communication. I *do* have a cell phone now, after all. 3) Lastly, being mentioned in other people's writings always makes me smile, so I'm all for it. Just know that you may be inviting discussion by doing so, but hey...who says that's a bad thing? People keep me around for all sorts of odd reasons, none of which I've quite got a grasp on and I've mostly quit trying to.

All right, as much as the last thing in the world I want is to get offline, I feel obligated to do so. So, tomorrow, I'll tell you all about where I've been for these past few days and all the fun I had on my 24th birthday....
