Coffee Crone: Taming Coffee Blog

The Joy

I've done absolutely nothing blog worthy for over a week now. I've roasted some lovely coffee, made a few good meals, and interacted with friends and family, but I figure, if it feels this boring to me, well...

I toyed with writing about why I am not rushing out to buy Vista. Ho Hum.

I even thought about whingeing about my sudden inability to tolerate dairy products, including my beloved cheese, but it somehow seems better to mourn my loss more privately.

I have a couple of friends who are considering blogging. And although I have spoken to one of them about it, and was supportive, right now there is this inner voice screaming, "Don't do it. Don't do it. It will just hang out there in space and haunt you."

In truth, it is easy enough to babble on, even in dry (and uninteresting) periods like this, at least it is if the act of writing gives one joy regardless of the topic, the importance, or whether anyone actually reads it. The trick seems to be sitting down and doing it, whilst having faith that in the doing will come the joy, even in dry periods.

I guess if I felt any compulsion to be honest here, and I really don't, I'd have plenty to write about now. I'm struggling physically, worried about some people I love, concerned about something having to do with RT's career. Lots of blog fodder, if I chose to see it that way.

Sometimes though, life is too important to blog about, the process of blogging too trivializing for the truth of one's life.

I will update to Vista after the release of service pack one.

Whatever you choose to write about, I always enjoy reading. I blog like I talk: much ado about nothing. And I'm with you on the Vista thing. I'm actually waiting to buy a new laptop after I see how Vista performs. I'm utterly disgusted with technology whose performance does not match the hype.

If I needed a new computer, I wouldn't hesitate or wait until Vista was a bit more seasoned. I just feel fine with XP Pro and no particular need to make my machine look more like a MAC. There is the whole DRM issue, but I can't get worked up about it now.

I just read where the anticipated surge (heard that word before?) to the stores to buy Vista simply didnt happen....and in one local TV poll, less than 10% said there were going to buy it right away---I am part of that 90%, and I may very well wait until service pack 2!
