The Good Life. |
Sometimes, I get these random, nosy, morbid impulses to read the blogs of users I don't know very well in an effort to discern something about them. Typically, the act is prompted by some unanswered question, some confusion about the person, such as a user who I thought was a mature adult unexpectedly referring to parents as "mommy and daddy" in a public forum. Even though it's none of my business, I wonder, how old is this person, anyway? So I dig through a portfolio looking for clues, and I stumbled across a public diary personal blog. After rubbernecking a dozen or so scenes from the person's train wreck of a life, I wonder if I was born on a different planet. People and their lives are so vastly different from one another. Reach 300 students at MTMS by 12/31/11: A flurry of enrollments in the last two days, and we're back up to 158. Compile book inventory: No activity. Pick scheduling database by 7/31/11: No activity. Reading: One book per week. No activity, and I have a busy weekend going down. Payroll taxes are due, as is my own tax return, which has grown increasingly complex this year. Writing: (1) Blog at WDC daily. (2) Blog at MT.com weekly. (3) Write something... else. At some sort of frequency. Count points: I'm not exactly counting points, but I've been eating a lot of fiber. The good news is that I'm full almost all the time for minimal calories. The bad news? Let's just say you should all be grateful that you know me electronically. |
