Lame Connection

Social networking drives me crazy. I first had a myspace, then a facebook. I deleted my myspace, and stopped going on facebook. Then I got cancer, moved away from my friends, and felt like my only connection to other humans was through a computer. Lame. I write in a journal. Actually, I'm not that organized. I write on whatever piece of paper happens to be lying around when I feel like writing. I've started writing more lately. Since I've been all alone. But when I put down the pen, and realize that I just spilled my guts to a piece of paper, I feel more alone. I thought that if maybe I wrote on, yet another, website that maybe it wouldn't feel so lonely? It wouldn't feel like I was writing something only for people to read once I was dead.



So I first signed back up for myspace. But I hate having to collect friends. I don't want to be constantly reminded of how many people may or may not be interested in my life. So I went on here. Not exactly sure how it works, but I'm hoping it's kinda like that piece of paper, but with spell check.

  1. What the hell did you go and get cancer for?

    I'm sorry, but I'm sure you don't want to hear that kind of stuff.

    Do you think one day in the future we will all walk around with a personal computer built into our brains? It will be implanted at birth, or soon after. Maybe we won't even have face to face conversations at that point. We would walk round doing whatever it is that ppl in the future do while all the time a blank stare apon our faces as we silently process countless gigabites with our top of the line, recently upgraded brains.

    If this is our future at least we won't have to worry about awkward social settings.

  2. I know this comment is coming a little late. Like I said I was a little unsure of exposing myself on yet another site, so I kinda wrote something and forgot about it.
    Oh, and don't worry about your first comment. I actually like that attitude.
    And as far as the the PC being built into our brains... I actually think it will be a mac :)

  3. You're right. Of course it would be a Mac. Then once we have the basic operating system installed we would be roped into the mandatory upgrades.

    Now for a minor key change.

    I am sorry to hear(read) the news. My thoughts are with you. If I were religerous this is where I would write a bunch of Jesus taint tickling nonsense, but I'm not. However, I do believe in human beings and the power of intent and positive energy. So here is a big fat beam of positive energy from me to you with love.
