stamps

November 6, 2010

I am about to lose internet access for an unknown amount of time. Not because I forgot to pay my bill, but because I never have. I am a computer leech. Finding a unsuspecting computer and latching onto it for obscene amount of time checking Facebook, my e-mail, Christmas present ideas and my blogs.

yeah, I have 2. Whilst being unemployed for 8 months I thought I would start a card business making artwork-cards for people. It has ended up being more or an old art portfolio. That isn’t updated. Self-employment didn’t really pan out for me.

But back to my original point: my internet access is going to be in limbo. Maybe I’ll be able to access it next week, but maybe not until next year.

I realize that I am being ridiculous and dramatic, I can use the computer at work 5 days a week. But where is the intimacy in that? That is no way live. So I think I am going to give-in to my cultural influences, as diluted as they may be, and getting a phone with internet.

It is going to be more money and  will be forced to look at my fb status in a whole new format. In fact I may need to update this page at the library to stop from going completely insane typing on a keyboard proportioned for a spider monkey. I might as well tattoo a welcome mat for the carpal tunnel that is about to overtake my hands.

I will soon be one of the masses, and I have decided not to eternally condemning myself, but instead look at how much I will be able to keep in contact with others.

However, I am continuing to balance out my hate/love relationship with technology and have bought stamps. For letters. So I will be writing  as I have for years, but now I will be using it as a form of technology-overload therapy.
