Hoping I will surface for air soon. Sorry to be offline so much. Can't actually express it. You know?

Still feeling a bit iffy
Posted Mar 11, 2000
I'm still feeling a bit iffy.
I've been having something like an out of the body experience for three days now. I'm coming back in to land now, but things were really weird for a while. I've been watching myself look and listening to myself hearing. This is somewhat less bad than it sounds.
I think I've been a bit ill, but these days I hardly ever seem to get an old fasioned flu or anything like that. Just these strange episodes.
I've had a crisis of confidence about my Guide entries. What this means is that I read them and thought they were crud. Except for the "Free Will" one. I suppose it shows that transient confusional states do not great writing make. I'm temped to unsubmit them, but I probably won't. If they are submitted at least one poor sod is going to have to read them.
Has anyone else felt that their inner life was some kind of contageous disease? Ah. Memes. Late again.
I'm doing some mildly self punishing stuff at the moment. Nothing very drastic (I lack the energy). Strange thing is, I'm not particularly unhappy. Life seems to have a momentum of its own. I'm not pushing, and things keep moving by.
I walked to my brother's place this evening, and saw what looked like a really nice alignment of the crescent moon and a couple of planets. I had a slightly insulated moment of "Wow, what an incredible Universe we live in."
Trite Thought for the Day: In other circumstances I think I could have been an anorexic, but I lack the organisational skills.

I've gone and done it now!
Posted Mar 8, 2000
In the last couple of days I've spent a huge chunk of time on line. Huge! The phone bill is going to be staggering. Thing is, I've had such a good time, I'm not bothered. When I've been away from the screen, I've been hooting wuth laughter about all the stuff that's been going on.
I'm obviously addicted, but I seem to have moved straight from habituation to the destruction of those parts of the brain which regulate behaviour. I am an h2g2 drone.
I keep thinking of that Robert Duval line from Apocolypse Now! - "Someday this war's gonna end." I'm going to enjoy it while I can!
Back at work tomorrow. Ggrooaann. Still, perhaps time away from h2g2 will make the experience all the sweeter when I get back on. I have web access at work, but I wouldn't want to spent (much) time looking at h2g2. Wouldn't be right. (Looks upwards - Help Me!)
