LOL!!!

I swear, on such a good track and then WHAM!! Life hits me, and suddenly its been over a month since I've posted anything...even a measly You Tube video!! I know, so sad! The whole Naked With Socks On blog had me all hyped up, and then as usual I lost track. In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that I noticed a friend of mine had started a blog today, I probably still wouldn't have posted! :-p...I swear though, this time (unlike all the other times I claim such a thing) it is SO not my fault!! :-p

Since we all know I am a shameless promoter of others, I would like to take the time to offer you a link to my friend, current inspiration for finally posting again, Eric's blog The Life & Times. He's new so only has a few posts up, and I apologize if I am wrong here Eric, but from what I have seen so far (and from what I know of you) this blog will be more political-based commentary, giving your personal views on politically driven issues (if I am wrong please correct me and I will retract and correct in my next blog ;-)).

For those of you who know me, politics is SOO not my thing, although I do have opinions about...ummm...stuff. Probably politic-stuff too, although if its phrased in political terms I am most likely to turn my brain off after word two. Not intentionally, mind you...not sure what it is, or when it started happening. Anywho, those of you who know me also know I am the kind of person who will follow my friends blog anyway and try my best to put an entertaining spin to it in my mind....

You know whats interesting about this train of thought? Is, that to have a conversation with, say Eric, who will have the exact same viewpoints and a similar way of delivering those viewpoints whether in written or in verbal form, I can be entirely enraptured in the conversation, having a "political debate" with an actual position I am supporting with actual real-life facts. Hmmm...maybe its because I am able while in conversation to temper the tone slightly so that it becomes less like a news report and more like a lively discussion. Hmmmmmmm...I am going to have to think this one out a bit. I keep having these random tidbits of thought cross my mind and I have to sit down and make sense of it all in my head...sigh...for another post then.

Anyway, life is good, except I've been dying from the flu. I started working at an Insurance company as a summer student. I know what you're thinking, I'm just a mail/filing clerk..but no, I'm part of sales and service administration and I have a lot of responsibility. Actually, I am doing really well (so it seems) and although they don't normally rehire summer students, if your boss really likes you they can extend your contract and make you part time during the winter and full time in the summers. Hopefully that will be me. The jobs pretty good, my team is really nice, and the pays really good for a casual summer job.

Fingers crossed.

Ok, I feel I have expunged my guilt of not blogging for a while. I will try and keep it up, but, as usually, you just never know with me ;-)

Cheers
