While on a grand scale this is the truth and we can all appreciate it, the minutae of online life doesn't lend itself to learning from others past mistakes making it possible in a relatively short amount of time to make the same mistakes over and over again.
Even the most "famous" in their corner of the internet, if they take a break for whatever reason are very quickly forgotten by all but a few who continue on for what ever reason but the probability of them coming back in the same capacity they had previously enjoyed is almost nil. Even if they do continue in the same space people change, ideals change and then it is natural to start to look back at what were the good old days.
The good old days on the internet are happening every day. There are always people who will find today and remember it fondly.
Where does this leave me? I am not sure, all I know is I have seen the rise and fall of several "dynasties"
Many I still know, some I think about fondly and then there is one who makes me wonder why he contacted me with the message he did.
I am left feeling like an object more than a human being and I don't like it.

Everyone has been going on about how warm it has been. All over North America.
I KNOW better, I said I knew better, I KNEW I knew better but I fell into her arms today. I was awash with warm air, melting snow, the sound of the creeks flowing fast. Mud, sunshine and hope.
The damn bitch got me.



Today 10c (50f) tonight -3c. Tomorrow another 15cms (6" of snow in the forecast.
I am tired of my monochromatic world,

When you want to bash someone over the head with a baseball bat and then think twice about it and use some tact the best result would have come from the baseball bat?
Is that badly planned foresight or hindsight you should learn from?
Armed with a bat and ready to use it!

but this just cracked me right up

Bursts of heavy snow are sweeping across much of southern Ontario.

For the second time this week flurries are battering the region. First it was the Groundhog Day storm. Now, another low is walloping southern Ontario with flakes.

Accumulation expected 16 cms.
Battered by flurries,

I has been busy around my house for awhile now but in the last 24 hrs I have had lots of "me" time.
I am ready to go again!
Relaxed,

according to some or one I should be the object of pity.
I will let you know if that is really the case.
If you want the truth go to the source not the ones who think they know,

I had my stupid boots on last night which have no treads what so ever and slid down the stairs. Did that stop me from going tobogganing? Nope, but it did send me to the Dr. today.
Sprained knee, such fun
Hobbling along,
