"Need to blog... Don't really need to blog at all." There's no deadline here. Almost 4 weeks of winter silence and here I say hello. Put a big quotation around the description "Weekly Blog."
There's a collection of stamps and postcards acquired from the past few years and so I thought I'd send some around and also a couple of packages. I still use old school mail, tried and true, now and then.
Blog can be a release, blog can be pressure. Each minute that passes when you're not typing a worthy word can be another minute gone, and for what?? An open letter to the public about anything. Yes, I do love to keep in touch and love this free, unlimited way of communication, but often I feel out of touch with the physical, breathing world when fiddling too long with a digital device.
What can I say? I don't follow anyone's blog- well, I did follow a couple of friends', but theirs are currently inactive, I believe. I regularly read blogs, yes, when I type in a topic of interest and it takes me somewhere and I check out what's been written on the subject and get lost surfing. I have a new album that I'm about to release any day now, and it takes up a lot of time and energy, so I am not always in the mood to regularly post. Yet, I haven't gotten rid of it. Sometimes I become post-happy because I truly delight in sharing with the world.
Doesn't it seem silly to constantly post everything about yourself, though? That is the norm now, too, I know. It seems like people aren't around their true friends enough in the real world and are seeking a fix of validation in the digital world. Yet, I'm not gonna bitch. It's fun, too.
This is the "silly season" for my blog, I suppose. Do you ever look up words you already know just to read the meaning of them? How could that word possibly be explained? So I came across:
PHRASES
the silly season: high summer, regarded as the season when newspapers often publish trivial material because of a lack of important news.
Seems like silly season is year-round these days...
I am proud of the students of this country making a stand, though.
