"THAT is when people lose their temper and what it says in the paper is; 'Custody Officer Assaults Inmate'. It doesn't say; 'Three Inmates Spent Six Hours Flooding Shit Water and Throwing Poop Balls At The Guy Until He Lost His Mind... And Assaulted The Inmate."

So how has everybody been? I've been blogging on my own website, http://WhatISaid.org/blog I like Vox though, so I am going to try to blog in both places.
But the truth is, I tend to be most active on social networks than on my own blog as of late. In other words, the best way to keep up with what I am doing, thinking, reading, taking pictures of, etc. is by following me on Facebook, Twitter, Friendfeed, etc. Friendfeed actually aggregates ALL my online activity into one feed, so lately that's been the best way to "follow" me as it's sort-of a catch-all for all my various online activities. Friendfeed is great, you should try it.
It's interesting that in the "old days" when the internet was new, everybody had "home page" web sites and those pages linked to various other websites they found interesting or useful. Next came blogs, and now it's social networking sites that are the most popular. NOW, people are going BACK to having Personal Home Pages, but this time those pages have links to their various social network online presences, sort of like a Table of Contents or "jump page". My jump page is here: http://www.MyOtherStuff.net
....a new job.
It started snowing shortly after I got to work at 9 this morning and its still snowing now. I swear my car was clean when I parked it earlier.
Its late (considering when i work in the morning), i have a kitten on my lap and I have just been reminded of who I used to be. Its sad looking back on my old flickr files and wondering where that spontaneous, intelligent, unique, and creative individual has gone. Christmas is almost here and I dont feel myself having any of the anticipation that a previous Christmas would have brought. All i am really asking for this year is a dinner and a haircut, of which I really hope I get both. Yes, my self-confidence has taken quite a downhill stumble but I can turn this around, I know I can. I am just a tad unsure of where to start. It doesn't help that I am in a relatively new place and don't know too many people. Of what I am sure about is that I will start my day tomorrow with a giant cup of coffee and make the most of what is around me. I need to arrange dinner with Spring, see if any of the guys do geeky get-togethers and plan to go see some music.
