Pat's BlogAnnoying RealisationWednesday, June 29, 2005 at 4:32 PM After being at Glasto for only 5 days I've decided that I'm much MUCH happier outside and away from computers: I spent much of Monday afternoon (once I had got back home) relaxing in the garden reading a book. After a while I decided it'd be good to pop online for a chat with guys from Uni (aka The Vobble Crew) and after only 1 hour of chatting (whilst trying to book tickets for Edinburgh Fringe shows online) I was already feeling stressed and irritable. For at least an hour afterwards I wasn't really much good in conversation with people, feeling oddly preoccupied with my mind buzzing. I remembered: THIS IS WHAT I'M NORMALLY LIKE ALL THE TIME. It's such a shame, because computers are obviously a big part of my life - at work, and at home (for playing games, chatting to uni mates, creating stuff when I'm bored)... I'm a lot happier without them, but I'm addicted. Perhaps I need to just spend less time on them, taking more time to read in the garden, go for walks in the countryside and watch mind numbingly crap evening telly... although less of the last one. In fact, I'll start tonight. But first, I'll just need to work out which events I'm going to at Edinburgh via edfringe.com. Oh and upgrade Gallery on my webserver. And prepare some jingles for an online radio show. And see how my Uni mates' days have been. And relieve tension by playing a bit of Quake 3... On a serious note, though, operation Start Questioning Using pcs And Generate Elation (what? WHAT?) has begun. 0 Comments: |
