500th something of something
Just a wee bit before New year's eve I realised that I have had written exactly 499 entries. Not very much compared to you guys, the devouted bloggers of my friend list. That happens to be the result of 2008. The year my computer crashed, the year music production and the main reason for keeping my blog here crashed. The reason I got this blog was to sort of put my ego on the map. I wanted to know if I was any good, if it was possible that my doings would do any good to anyone out there. Can't say that I really, really started the blog with exactly that intention... Instead the intention lurked in the back of my head. With that came the need to show my art, and my music. Etc, etc, etc.
Now, with the 2008 personal computer crash of mine, I sort of left blogging. Instead I concentrated in working. What did I get out of that besides money if not self-gratification (or something related)? People appreciate me at work, even if they happen to be a bit low on the ladder from time to time and even if I don't have any personal ties with them it is enjoyable to go to work. The back of a work lies in your co-workers, and as long as your back is healthy the workload can be horrible.
Work has been awfully tiring lately. My sleeping pattern changed during 2008 a bit. To get back to the usual tempo might be hard since there is an oncoming art show which I will participate in. Just to name something that is happening. So sleep will be neglected.
The reason why I happen to keep the blogging on OFF mode is that my thoughts wander around in the more deeply personal and the more emotional parts of thought. Things that I dislike to put up here, and rather put in a future short story or something. That is the reason, the situation and what else have you. Nothing I really can't do about the moment. This blog could well turn into a blend of food videos and rants about my feelings towards people here and there. My journal is supposed, according to myself, to be an open journal. No locked entries, and if something comes up that happens to be related to things that should be in a locked entry then I won't write about it at all. End of story. I'd rather share those things via telephone or modern time's messenger tools.
When the spring comes my interest in farming will show itself again. Got some plans on what and how to grow it this year. Which will be fun! But tomorrow I will visit my half-brother. I'll return next week with some more news.
