I think it is quite obvious that I have seemingly fallen out of love with the internet, and in particular, this ‘ere website. The very one I have lovingly (and sometimes angrily) crafted from nothing more than words and web software I don’t like very much over the past seven years. I’ve lost a lot of motivation for writing over the past few years, which is probably because I haven’t redesigned my website in years, because everyone knows you will stop doing anything that becomes monotonous and uninteresting. Because I do actually want to keep writing, I have wondrous and grand ideas of pulling everything down to bare bones, installing a new CMS, and completely starting again. I want a photography portfolio, and something pretty and new to present my musings on life in. Instead, I think, “Damn, importing all those entries into the database is going to suck!” and, “I really don’t have time for this!”
What I am really saying is that I am excellent at procrastinating. What I am also saying is that my life has also been extraordinarily busy. Since my last update I have:
- Spent four weekend in Auckland visiting my amazing boyfriend Duncan
- Went to the most amazing drum and bass gig ever: Drumz 2007 with Marcus Intalex and Doc Scott
- Spent eight days in Tonga fighting rabid dogs and falling coconuts
- Started learning to become a super awesome drum and bass DJ
- Become obsessed with the Shortland Street serial killer
- Discovered Facebook
To be honest, I’m not sure what the conclusion of this post is – I’m not going to profess to write more, and I’m not even going to promise to do the things I said I want to do in the first paragraph. But it’d be nice if I did.
