Blogging

“Remember when we all used to have WordPress blogs? That was ages ago!”

A friend said that to me recently.

I remember making a mental sidelong glace towards this blog as I responded “Haha, yeah.”

That’s how I learnt I was out of date. Behind the times. Still flopping out of the primordial ooze and checking out these new ‘leg’ things which have replaced my fins. Meanwhile, my friends are all doing the latest cool things like ‘inventing fire’.

Oh well.

There is something nice about not being up to date. Now I know that I am behind the times, I cannot get any more behind them. I could start writing penny dreadfuls and try to sell them for a penny on street corners. I would still be behind the times. Nothing will have changed. I’m here. Nicely settled in.

Maybe now I know where I am, I could actually start using this blog for its original intended purpose? That’s what I am trying to do right now: take these words out of my head and put them onto this blog. There isn’t much room left inside my skull. These words need to go somewhere.

I have a dream that one day I will have a blog full of philosophical thoughts, in-depth anlayses on a particular subject and interesting content that will draw the crowds.

This isn’t that blog. Lack of time, lack of focus, lack of drive… there’s a whole lake of lack. A lack lake. A lot of lack in the lake. A long- okay I’ll stop that.

Here’s what I’m putting here:

Musings on stuff. Maybe some mental health stuff.
Table top roleplaying content (because I like them)
Poems? Possibly poems.
Jokes.
Doodles

+And who is it aimed at?

You. The reader. I have no idea who you are, or why you are here, but you are welcome.

I haven’t quite figured out how to find the courage to tell other people I am writing things here. Would they care? Why would they spend time reading it? Why should they spend time reading it? I barely edit it myself.

Anyway, more stuff coming soon.

Riri.
