Apologies if you've been waiting for me to post. I'm not dead, although nearly, a few projects with short deadlines were won a couple of weeks ago and have necessitated the 14 hour days on the computer. Not, obviously, blogging.
My time is not my own.
Still I've found time to make a few notes, opine, as it were, upon even more topics with unpopular facts and opinions.
I should note that the difference between my opinions and facts is only ever one of interpretation. I generally get the facts right. The interpretation is subjective.
Met with a friend in Starbucks yesterday who had as well noticed my absence, we sit, catching up and exchanging thoughts on the imminent new world order, around us everyone has unfolded their MacBooks....PC's, apparently, are not allowed in Starbucks. I say this to a man next to us, but I think he believes me and is relieved that he made the right choice. "Whew" he thinks to himself. No sense of irony, or he simply refuses to acknowledge any sense of humour that makes him the butt of the joke.
Beside him there are two girls sharing a table, they would appear to be acquaintances, they each have their MacBooks open and are busy ignoring each other while they surf the net. Or, rather, who am I to say they were ignoring each other? Quite possibly they were in a heated conversation, messaging each other about the cute guys waiting in line for their coffee's, the ones who like to bath and use soap and deodorant and fancy cologne.
This is what the world has come to.
I've started to believe my little confabulation, even more so as my companion is taking it seriously, and I start to wonder about the lonely girl at the end on her PC, "They should throw her out...." I think to myself; "That isn't Starbucks at all....".
It's good to get out, however briefly. Now there are new projects, but I have an abundance of notes to transcribe and so the updates here will be somewhat more frequent.
