Ack!

Absolutely amazing! This month has flown by and I just can't seem to get over it. I'm almost afraid that I'll wake up in the morning and it will be November lol Okay... so that's a bit silly... though I'm sure you get my point.

Was chatting with a few "old" computer friends recently... you know... friends that you haven't actually met in person... though you know so much about them that it's as if they lived next door I can just bet that you know someone that fits in this category. Anyway... the topic of discussion went to the way things used to be on the Internet. The information highway was new... creative webpages were in abundance... though blogs were not even thought of... at least the way we have them presently. There was no Facebook, no MySpace, and can you believe this... no PoGo! Chatting with various others in a box called a "room" was exciting... and building a website of your own was more than enough to keep you up late at night... eating Twinkies... and chugging gallons of your favorite jet fuel or "I.S.K.C." as Grizz would call it  We found that typing "lol" allowed the others to know you were getting the joke... and then many other forms of shorthand followed... some not so nice.

Time got away from us... websites went away... others sprang forward... groups formed... forums came to life... we exchanged moments, hours, days, weeks, months... and believe it or not... many, many years. We've shared in each others moments of glory... and shed tears when events called for them. 

My time has been limited for over a year now. Due to one thing or another... I've found that I don't spend as much time doing the things that I used to love to do on the web. The enjoyment of reliving old times with my computer friends is a welcome distraction from the every day that I have going on at the moment. My old computer finally bit the dust... I tried to keep her running as long as I could and finally had to put her down. I now sit in front of my newest delivery... trying to get used to Windows Vista and I'm not having too hard of a time. Except for having to phone tech support at MSN twice.

I hope everyone had a chance to enjoy the Memorial Day weekend. I'll return soon enough... if you want to find me... just hit me up on Facebook lol I'm hanging around playing Vampire Wars, Mafia Wars, Nitrous Racing, My Fairyland... and various other game applications. See... the Internet is such a busy place now 

 

Take care...
