Soapy shower thoughts

Well, sorry for so long between postings - I was sick as a dog; like, too sick to even bother to watch tv. Yeah, that sick. It sucked.

So, back to my racy post title. I realized that most people just seem to use the internet for porn, so if I have naughty blog titles I should naturally increase my readership. I'm a genius.

However, on a serious note, I really do have all my best blogging thoughts while I'm in the shower - the only way they ever end up on the blog is I repeat the idea over and over again until I get to the computer. I can't wait until someone develops a way to have thoughts transcribed on to paper (ok, screen). I type fast, I talk faster and I think about 17 times faster than that so it would be a godsend. Technology is light years ahead of me so it probably exists already but since I can't figure out how to put videos on my ipod I probably won't end up with it at my disposal anytime soon.

The thirtysomething alternative? I think I might get a whiteboard for the shower. Mounted on the far wall of course. Although, it'll have to be removable or I'll end up having to do all of my blogging in the bathroom - which would then mean my audience that identified with me would be teenage boys surfing the internet for porn and coming across my blog instead. With the door closed for privacy of course ;)

How not to multi-task

The idea of multi-tasking is a great one. We all should do more of it. What we should NOT do however, is watch TV and surf the internet (unless of course you're reading a great blog like mine) as that isn't multi-tasking. While I may like to pretend that it's not just me sitting on the couch and wasting the *prime* years of my life, that's really all it is. With a portal on my lap that can show me in an instant what exactly it is that I am missing.

Oh internet, how I love/hate thee.

I'm thinking of going into a self imposed TV exile (and besides, think of all the great things that will be on my PVR when I go back to it), but I'm pretty sure I lack the discipline for a task of that magnitude.

I did however, turn the TV off to write this post.
