The Wonder Of The Blog

I started this as just a way to get down my thoughts, share random things that people may or may not read. Only a day or two later and already it has produced results I hadn't expected. I showed my friend this blog, just to see what he thought. He reads it and this sparks a good couple of hours of discussion on a writing project between us. We have both expressed our ambition of writing to each other before, but we had never really gone into deep discussion about it, but my blog caused both myself and my friend to begin discussing these ideas with each other in ways we hadn't before.

Will this lead to that much sought after story I am hoping to write? Who knows, but it is certainly a nice path to go down, one which I hope will be both challenging and entertaining for all involved.

It's amazing how busy you can feel when you don't do much all day. Just chatting on MSN is something I seem to set time for in my head, same with watching a DVD or TV, it's a strange way to think, one I hope to rid myself off when my life actually picks up. First rejection letter from a job the other day, bit disappointing, but didn't get me down, which surprisingly surprised me.

That last paragraph at nothing to do with the one before it I know but I don't care :P I just felt like rambling a bit. I think I might do a review or two sometime next week, of what I don't know but I don't think I'll go for something recent, I feel like reviewing Die Hard which I just watched today, or something similar.

This weekend however is going to be focused on sharing ideas with my friend Piers in regards to this story we are both now set to work on, there's also the small matter of my Dad coming back after 2 months away, no doubt to tell me to get off my lazy arse, but hey that's life folks.

I think i'll end with a little thought about music, I am rarely without it, even if I myself havent chosen it. If the game i am playing doesn't have music all the time or there isn't anything on TV I want to be background noise to my chatting online, then music fills the void. I find myself disliking silence, even when I go to bed I have the TV on, silence makes me think, and thinking means I can't get to sleep. But when online or just sitting playing a fairly quiet video game I find myself feeling odd, and music rids me of that. Don't know where that thought came from but it popped into my head so I thought I'd type it out, and that's what I created this for so that's what it will be used for :D
