I have always relied on the kindness of strangers...
The new platform on 20six will, I think, signal the end of my adventures into blog-land. I no longer have time to dedicate to my writing which means that my random ramblings can get misinterperated and (at worst) offend people who read them.
Blogging no longer has the same impact that it did when I was trapped behind a desk all day longing for something better. My blog was a place of daydreams and it's true to say that reality is what takes my time now.
I've changed quite a lot since those early days of blogging, I'm less blonde (literally) for a start, and I'm more fulfilled. It's been hard work and sometimes so hard to push myself, and as recent entries show... I'm still not able to completely understand who I am - sometimes I feel like I am writing as someone else entirely... like I have made myself up!
But, if nothing else... then perhaps that's what I've learned from blogging. That you don't have to always make sense. That however smart you think you are life doesn't play like a Meg Ryan movie...
I am judged enough in my day to day life by sharp teenage eyes looking for faults, and I am reassured enough in my day to day life by a boy with blue eyes and a lovely smile. I don't think I need the kindness of strangers anymore.
So - here's to my last week blogging... and make sure you come to blinks on Friday night.

Does that mean that this stranger doesn't get to buy you a drink when he's coming down to London to be at the Blinks especially?!! :-P

(16.1.06 12:34) Hey, dasiy. Never say never. You can use this blog as an occasional release, and sod the people who judge. They only judge others because they are scared to look inwards towards themselves. |
|
(16.1.06 12:45) Oh. My. God. Keith!! The kindness of strangers thing is a quote - from streetcar named desire! |
|
(16.1.06 13:33) I am so there on Friday. Some things just run their course don't they? I ought to stop too really (but I am rubbish, so I won't!) |
|
(16.1.06 14:29) So you're leaving us 'again'? Or is this just another publicity stunt to increase your ratings?  You realise that if you do stop blogging then I'll have to find some other way to waste an extra few minutes of my lunch break? Do you?? Can you live with yourself knowing that?? Life gets to us all, and as a result we no longer require the same things we once did. So all I will say is this: mwah mwah, tata chick

(16.1.06 15:29) NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO |
|
(16.1.06 15:41) Oh I don't deserve good ratings anymore because I don't write well anymore (this is not fishing). When it was easy I could carry on pldding away at this blog, but I have so many things to do that I can't learn another platform, and it seems right to leave. I will blog all this week though, and naturally reserve the right to return in my summer holidays!! |

(16.1.06 19:08) You know those Ford super-mini cars, and you know how they did a version called 'Street'? Well, if you bought one, and called it desire, you'd have: A Street Ka named Desire! Ahem. Anyway - yes - I'm coming to London, so I need a number to get hold of you on again, you could email me on keithspragg[at]vodafone.net and I'll respond :-) Keith (Never say never again!) |
|
(16.1.06 21:48) A double-leaving whammy no less! I'll probably try to keep my blog here going in some form or another, but I'm feeling all the vibes of a fresh start and what better time than this to exit stage left (or at least start a new one?). Looking forward to Friday. |
|
(17.1.06 05:11) ialways liked your blog but i understand your reasons for departure. goodbye and goodluck x |
|
(17.1.06 09:40) Keith - nerd warning! Technically, Ka is a mini, not a super-mini. Super-minis are bigger than mini's. Extra nerd warning: A MINI (BMW's finest) is actually a super-mini! Get your head round that!! Daisy - its been fun. As Dippysea says, "Never say never"! Have a break and we'll see you in the hols! Ta Ref |
