Damning my brain…

I actually like the idea of disciplining myself to typing today. Many times I’ve told myself.. that if I had time… I’d write some of my inner thoughts. The strange way that I perceive things and take them apart.

Seeing the big patterns and the complexities of society with a simple framing view.

And yet.. at 7:15 I find my intelligence scanning Wikipedia’s entry on MadTV for the name of the cast member I absolutely despised.

I’m still not sure I’ve been able to find it, even after looking at the complete cast list

Though after consulting the list of MadTV characters.. I’ve found my bane. “Comedian” Michael McDonald played a character called Stuart. I’m really not going to elabourate on this character beyond the fact that it was the one thing that spoiled an otherwise enjoying sketch comedy show for me.

So there you have it.. The depths of my complex views on the world… Or at least that which I damn my mind for distracting me from the complexities of my thoughts.

And I should put in the obligatory report since the topic had yet to emerge.
shimmeringjemmy and aiden_freeman are both still asleep. Shortly I will plug in the cell phone since I sense that some of my posts today will be audio based as I wrestle and wrangle the child.

I’m noticing a level of focus that blogging will require today.

It’s very easy for me to get distracted with some little project. Having picked up another sponsor (Thank you)

I tried to do some analysis of the Blog List page at the main site. I started doing my typical data analysis work and realized it was time to start writing another post.

There are actually monitors making sure people actually stay with the process today.

The initial field of 566 has already been peeled down to 527.

So it’s going to be an interesting day.

Sadly, when I walk away from a distraction (or find another distraction) it’s very hard to get back to the first distraction.

I think shimmeringjemmy once referred to it as “Running in massive parallel process with leaky thread control”

Geek girls… For the record… Amazingly hot.

Granted I think everyone I subscribe to on LJ is a geek in some measure…

Brains == Hot

(And this is what I am capable of mustering at 7am 😉
