babyatom's (old) BIG BLOG

babyatom's BIG BLOG was somewhere for me to air some thoughts and tell you about what I'd been up to between March 2003 and January 2006. I'm now here

I seem to be surrounded by annoying people all the time. I was acutely aware of this last night on the way home when a succession of twats in their cars did stupid things and made me cross. When you're not in a car you can avoid people or, if you have to come into contact with them, can at least choose not to get that involved. But when your path crosses that of a twat in a car, you have to endure their spasiness 'cos there's nowhere else to go!! Grrrr!!!!
I wonder whether living in the Scottish Highlands would be any better. I really fancy a hermit's life. Maybe not a full-on hermit, perhaps just a recluse. I could do things the way I think they should be done without having to endure other people's actions and opinions. It would be much better than being surrounded by obnoxious, grumpy fools, intent on dulling the world into a Daily Mail nightmare of paedophiles next door, stories about a friend's brother's uncle who 'does that but much better and earns about £1m a week' and revelations that lollies and air give you cancer.
Wouldn't it be nice to wake up in a quiet place where you can hear the breeze, go about your business calmly and quietly - occassionaly stopping to look at things properly - and not have to say what you think about anything. Yes, it would. And I realise that this little manifesto is me saying what I think but, if I got my way, it would be the last time I did so. Ah, the peace and quiet. It would be like lying down to die but with 60 years left to live. Luxury.

		I agree. And that's a fine manifesto if ever I read one. But I don't think there are that many people who'd agree with you that "lying down to die, with 60 yrs.to live" is something to aspire to, although it sounds nice to me. If there isn't a dance beat pounding away near by, most people would be bored out of their brains! .....posted by Anonymous at 12:41 pm, May 14, 2004 Sheesh! All this time I've been looking at my new 'comments' on my mac and it looks lovely and you've all been saying it looks weird and I didn't know what you were on about. I come home, look at it on my PC - and it looked bloody weird! In a tiny little column!! Why didn't anyone tell me?! Well, it's fixed now and you can see how I was seeing it all this time. So there. .....posted by Anonymous at 11:18 pm, May 14, 2004 Man, has everyone reached a peak in Blog writing or what!
