That my muse went off to Euro Disney and didn't even send back a pair of ears.
I just haven't had the yen to post. Comment, sure. But the overall tenor and tone at the other place has made me rather *meh* on the whole process. I do that far too often .. let the overwhelming attitude of a few miscreants ruin my space..or hamper my desire.
And well, there isn't alot of interesting stuff happening there. Sure - there are those I like to interact with, but the majority are in the same August doldrums that hit me like a semi rushing downhill with no brakes.
Yesterday I actually had the desire to write- to share. And, of course, my internet and phone and connections all went poofy. Some node issue. Fortunately - I am an NPR addict - and love podcasts .. so I had the Apple TV with podcasts loaded and ready for a listen. So I did.
I discovered the real joy in listening to ideas and learning new approaches. I learned that there are people who can clearly define an idea that is truly complex, but make it attainable. I found links to blogs and books and information that I, the true information junkie, had never before seen or explored.
And - I found out that my inherent distaste for some in the 'public forum' is far less based on my thinking they are idiots, but really do have a root that is tangible and logical.
And - I know that listening to more podcasts on a near daily basis will become part of my regular routine....
