I'm not often on my laptop these days. I spend SO MUCH time in work on my computer and it sometimes strikes me as so very sad that although owning a smartphone has given me access to cool stuff I enjoy and new ways to contact my friends and watch videos and listen to music, there are things that I used to enjoy that suffer on that platform. Blogging is one of them, reading copperbadge's blog is another one, writing long form stuff...

There used to be, as well, something enjoyable in the pattern of life. I would wake up, turn my computer on and while it wound itself up go and get washed and then maybe watch a few videos while getting dressed or read some fic while I pootled around getting ready. Now I'm much less good at getting up when I can just start flicking through my phone while still in the duvet! But hey, it means I get a lot more access to fic for longer duration- very important particularly as these days I'm often not at home long enough to wind the computer up!

Lots of stuff on my mind at the moment. Work stuff, social media shit, the fact that I need to get up in a minute and go and move my car as whe I got home my neighbour was clearly having some sort of scooter meet and they were blocking my drive.

Well, if I didn't know I was more mod than rocker before I surely do now. Ugh.

I haven't really had a lot of time for thinking about things, but sometimes that can be good with me as it postpones my natural eeyore tendencies. I was at a work thing the other week which was absolutely (suprisingly) lovely and I met a lot of really nice people and then it was straight into a show with my drama group (comedy stuff). Tomorrow night we start on Blithe Spirit- I am very much looking forward to it.

Haha, I still have that pattern - on weekdays, at least. But the pootling is still a little less fun than it used to be, when I was mostly reading stuff about fic (or fic itself) and interacting on LJ. Now it's emails and Facebook and links to depressing news stories! :D

Hope you're doing ok and not feeling too Eeyore-ish, looking forward to seeing you later this year!
