Adventure with a capital A

There’s been a while without writing. Have had other things distracting me, like Michelle. She’s the only one that I’m really seriously interacting with, and things that go on between us are between us, and I haven’t been writing about them.

Also, I don’t tend to write as often when I’m staying still, and I’ve really been staying still this time. I’ve been feeling that I haven’t been moving forward socially, employment-wise, intellectually, that I’m sitting here using time that could be used more effectively elsewhere.

A few notable things in the last month: making a Scrabble board and pieces out of a pizza box, Lemon Meringue Pie and carrot cake, picnic in the park, I’ve started climbing again.

I worked for a while for Greenpeace, a bit doing phone promotions for free seminars to businesses. I’ve pretty much decided that the folks who wanted to send me to New Caledonia aren’t going to, which sortof makes choices easier.

And in the mean time I’m getting older. It’s the sort of thing that happens without you doing anything.

From time to time I think about cool things, but then I don’t get around to writing them down, and they move around pretty easily. Been distracting myself with a couple of dial-up tolerant games, Warring Factions and RuneScape, both of which are free. So not too bad, ’cause we’ve got free dial-up at home. Runescape’s frameset doesn’t like Adblock.

Also looking at Peak Oil stuff. Michelle and I had a moment of hesitation when we were like “what happens if oil makes it too expensive for international travel like we know it?”

So that’s the story for the moment.
