Stayed up way too late last night, I ended up crawling in to bed around 2:30. The decent demo was cool, but I didn't complete it. The map function doesn't work in the demo, and I'm sorry, but descent is not playable with out the map, it's too easy to get lost.Last nights entry was actually written today at work. Oh well. I'm still pondering the pro's and cons of placing this journal on line. Damn, just went ego surfing (put my name in Copernic and checked what I saw), and found my home page (18th selection) and the list of grey day supporters (14th selection)
DinkFog, I haven't used that name in a while. It's the name of a character I used to run in an RPG a while back. The url DinkFog is not used either. Let's see what I can do.
This whole thing started with brianna's Diary of a stripper. My friend Thor and I were talking about things recently (one of those 5 hour catch up on the last 18 months) talks and started talking about how I enjoy talking with dancers and had taken a friend to jodies because he and his wife are particularly looking to try to hook up with a dancer. Don't know how well that will work, but we had gone and I was explaining that this is a job, that the women are here to make money. At some while I was explaining this to Thor, he told me that I had to check out this site, that I would love it because she was saying all the same things that I was. So two weeks later I'm reading and it's just flipping cool. Then I started looking around and finding out that this is like some big trend or something. Do I want to "join a bandwagon", or am I still one of the pioneers? Probably depends on if you're reading this 2 days after I put this up, or if your reading it 20 years from now.
Dealing with that whole issue of annonimity. I am a computer programmer, in a very small shop. I have a friends who I really don't want to see this. Not all that interested in my family seeing this, because I'm sure my sex life is going to come up here somewhere. Right now I'm trying to figure out how to place this on the net. Probably just put it in my home page after journal and be done with it. I really want to get my domain name now. It looks like it's $35 a year. That's not the problem. The problem is my ISP wants an extra 20 - 50 a month to host it. I'm not willing to pay that much, just to have my own domain name. Not yet at any rate.
The one thing that I have noticed since I've started doing this journal is that I seem to be much calmer. I'm not sleeping anymore, but I'm a lot calmer. I'm starting to think that 34 and childless is not a bad thing. That it's ok that I am not going end up hooking up with a slightly submissive 18-24 year old, 5'2- or 5'11+ bi blond with oral and anal fetishes. Who also wants a good handful of kids, and can deal with the stresses of modified monogamy.
Now mind you, that was a short flash today. It's going to be a while before I'm REALLY ok with it. I need to call some Mike and Rita and see if they want to do coffee sometime next week. I also need to call Joe and find out how he's doing. And I also need to hit the gym tonight.
