12/5

I surf too much, no two ways about it. More breaks, taking a short stroll around the house or whatever, would do me good. It's when stepping back for a second that I remember the things that I want to do instead of just surfing around. Like remember to update this site with how wonderfully summery the world is right now, the whole room smelling summer when the window's been open for a while. The sun shining, warm enough to make the shirt stick to my back in that familiar way. The grass and the trees being so intensely green, so alive ... Never remember to type stuff like that in properly, or many other things for that matter. The web is too close, too easy to get to, and so much so that I wouldn't want it any other way either. I'd just need to get better at letting it be there and minding its own business for a while. Use the time to type more text in. To look at those notes I actually make on the Palm but forget when in frontog tyhe computer again. To play more games again! I'm still not through Black & White for crying out loud (or taking my time, enjoying every second of it either), what kind of gamer am I?

Part of the reason I'm bad at updating right now is of course that I'm spending tiem in Linux (and feeling very good about that by the way!) but still haven't found a way to mount my FAT32-partitions from there. That means site updates are a reboot away, which often feels like just a little too much trouble ...

See how easy all this comes when I just sit down and focus! That's another thing to put on the (often forgotten and overlooked) todo-list!

Henrik is very good for my interest in boardgames, they are embarassingly overlooked today! Space Hulk yesterday was followed by a really nice session of Svea Rike, and that in turn sparked some night surfing on extensive, info-packed boardgame sites. That's the kind of stuff I like to find on the web, completely uncommercial sites about people's interests! No wonder I get distracted, and entertained, from other things when finding sites like these :-) ...

We also dug out some more games that really deserve some attention again. This house has pretty extensive collections, especially when compared to the amount of time invested ... Ave Caesar, Drakborgen, Ostindiska Kompaniet and mroe just waiting for attention ...

Gee ... This weekend is only halfway through, and there's already way too much candy and ice cream involved :-) ... Both things served in the new bowls that mom's bought, that are so yellow you feel happier just by looking at them. Tomorrow I'm going to do some running, then, hopefully, sit down and get some studying done. Tomorrow: another start on a better life! Today: ice cream with whipped cream!
