It's been a long time/Since I left you...
I haven't blogged in a while. Not because I haven't had anything to say...OK, I've had plenty to say (and there's been plenty to talk about), but I guess that I didn't feel like typing.
A lot has happened since January. Popes have come and gone. Games have been won and lost. Family Guy is back on network television. I learned how to ride a real motorcycle.
But mostly, I've been writing offline. About what? Well, I can't give much away, but suffice it to say that I've been reflecting about a relationship that I haven't really had; in many ways, it doesn't exist. So I've been challenging myself to find ways to codify in words a non-existent relationship with a completely existent person. Confused? Me, too. But patience, dear reader. This will make more sense soon.
On another note, I have been doing my part to conserve fossil fuels, so that the prices will drop. What have you done? It might seem silly, but it's true that if you keep the lights off and the computers off and you don't cook and you don't do laundry and you don't drive and you don't heat the house on cold nights, you'll be doing your civic duty to bring petroleum prices down and stick it to the oil cartels. Changing the way I live my life to adapt to aggressive price tactics -- feels like reaction to terrorism to me.
Overwhelmed at work. Overwhelmed at the pump. Overwhelmed at home. Limited access to activities based on fossil fuel consumption. What's left after 10:00 at night? I guess I'll go see what Brian and Stewie are up to...

Well, I think I have a fair understanding about that whole non-relationship with a real person, but I'll leave it alone for now. As far as conserving resources being a reaction to terrorism, I think we need to look at other reasons for saving fossil fuels, etc. For the simple reason of less consumption, and for trying to be less gas guzzling as a society, we would do well to stretch our gas tanks as best we can. Isn't George Bush as much of a tyrant as any other world ruler? After all, his whole family is in oil, and he has no interest whatsoever in trying to preserve the environment. He is all and completely about money. For the rich.
