Where the Hell Have I Been ?

2008-03-06

I was just asking myself the other day.  I sure as hell haven't been online, but  I have a perfectly good explanation for that.

 Answer number one, and  I hate to admit it, but I've been gaming for hours playing  Oblivion  IV.  I made a vow to myself over eight years ago, when  WOW was still a single play computer game, as the 56k modem and 512k memory didn't make it technically possible to play online, that  I wouldn't get wrapped up in a cyberworld again as I was, long before  MYST came along.  Ah the nineties.

Plus, I'm so disgusted with politics I don't want to waste any more time on it and I don't have the patience to explain it to the masses.  But again, pick up a copy of  Sid  Meir's  Civilization, and get your happy ass from a black dot in The  Beginning of  Time, to  Alpha  Centuri without the peasants revolting from tax hikes, and other nations waiting to tear you a new one.  We'll call it a cheap life lesson under  $50.00.

Excuse number  B. My laptop crashed.  Seriously,  Windows  Vista is a decent OS, but still even as a  Director of  IT, we can get caught with our proverbial pants down, and my computer got an  STD.    Ok,  I'm not saying  I'm on a lot of porn sites where most problems arise, this little bugger came through on  Windows  Messenger.  The timing sucked as  I was attempting to log on and book my seat assignment on  US Air, and  I walked out of the room for a minute and came back to    PLEASE CHOOSE  WHICH OPERATING SYSTEM TO  LOAD. uh oh.  I slammed the lid down, vowing to deal with it once  I returned from  San  Diego.

 Which leads me to answer three;  San  Diego.  What a beautiful town.  Embarrassingly clean if one has ever been to Filthydelphia. Sure my hotel was in the heart of the  LGBT community, but the view, and the shower was worth it.  Balboa  Park was a lovely excursion, and I spent four hours walking around, going to museums and taking in the natural flavor that sure wasn't vanilla,and definitely had a twist.  My goal is to move there, even if at the present time it seems daunting.

But with a forced four day moratorium from online games, viruses, and the media,  I felt that  I should at least write something even if it was just a bunch of excuses. 

Please excuse Pam from writing and she now has a severe case of blogarrhea.  Can someone please pass the wipes ?  Signed,  Epsteins'  Mom.

Hey, I love Philly! Didn't you ever see Rocky?! I'm no doubt showing my provincialism, but what's the LGBT communty? Lesbian, Gay, Bi, and ... what? Tranny? Termites? Transylvanians? And my most important question: You can get viruses from downloading porn?! Uh-oh. Well, that just figues; the on thing that gives meaning to my otherwise tepid life.
