You see how it is going to be today gentle reader? Not too pretty is it? I almost makes me want to cry. Cry or give up and shut down all effort. And to think, the bad days are still ahead.

Wow!
Over six hundred words for the day gentle reader and we have only sung down two "decades" (I wonder what the correcto word would be here if there is one. I may try and look it up later...) so far.
That is some serious wordiness. Some serious verbosity.
A part of the problem is the Broken Net Blues. Things are not working right. Sometimes down completely, sometimes DNS is messed up, sometimes routing is messed up. What to do?
I mean look:

How are you supposed to get where you need to go with problems like that?
Mind you, that is some serious count boosting fun right there. Not fun I would like, but fun none the less.
Almost to a thousand words so far today by wc figuring and no mention of any character yet. I will try and mention one by name once I break throught...

Just. Four. More. Words. Fulcrum! I hope I don't have to cut any out or Fulcrum will get his mention too soon.

Once again gentle reader, even with these literary tricks I still manage to find unknown ways to let time pass me by. I am unproductive in my non-productiveness. Can I sink any lower?
(5:43 pm Wed Nov 12, 2008)
There it goes again. Just off reading some email and bam...
Slowed right down now. Don't know what to think. Don't know what to write. Don't know what to say.

Got that?
Yeah right. I SAID... YEAH RIGHT!
There, that feels a bit better at least.

Fulcrum, Fulcrum, Fulcrum. How did you end up in the future? How can yoy be so calm in the face of such changes and bewilderment? What happened to you in your early years that resulted in such a character?

How can I keep doing this? How can I be so bereft of ideas?

So there you have it. Sad I know. And the thing is, I am counting on the fact that that song is in the public domain. I will have to check, because if it is not... I will have to rip everything out and put in some London Bridge and Humpty Dumpty or something else like that. It is amazing that things that were handed down from your parents to you are still in copyright when you hand them down to your child, even if your child comes along later in your life.
And so I bid you goodnight.
