So I decided I'd write this when I got home from work, before I checked who was on MSN, logged onto WoW, or anything else. But I didn't. I've procrastinated for the last six hours, and really, I still am. I have my TV on, WoWinsider open, as well as MSN and WoW. But I'm ignoring them all, kind of. I'm ignoring them enough to be writing right now.
I was thinking about a conversation I had last night. I said I don't blog anymore because there's always so little to talk about, and whenever I read it, it just felt boring, like the same depressing entries were being posted every couple of weeks. I've thought about it, and I think I'm wrong. It's because I'm embarrassed at how boring I feel my life is. Which is ridiculous.
On a day to day basis I may not do much, but who does? I go to work more or less five days a week, which leave two days to do anything else. In that time I socialise, sometimes online, sometimes with friends, sometimes with my girlfriend. Not to mention spending time with my family, or those weekends where I simply sit around doing nothing at all. That's my regular routine, fairly normal really. It's the stuff that's not regular, that I only get to talk about a few times a year that's not "boring", the weekends away, where I have a few days off and spend the whole time in whatever city has something happening. The kind where you sleep where you can afford, do what you can afford, fly home and ask for a few dollars so you can buy breakfast. Those are the times I can write about without feeling boring. How many people can honestly say they've decided to go on a trip, and left a few days later? That's me. With some money in the bank, and a few days up my sleeve, I'll simply go do something. And I love it. I love the impulsiveness of it. I love being able to meet people, see things (the sun rising while above the clouds), do things (walking around Melbourne for an hour, lost, at one in the morning) I'd never be able to otherwise. It's just so unpredictable, and that's what I crave. That's me, the expected is boring, the unexpected excite's me.
