Opportunities
Six weeks of open time are ahead of me. First of all, obviously,
HURRAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for that fact.
More importantly - and this just hit me while I was in the shower (to which subject I shall return shortly) - that's not an opportunity to be lost.
It's 1.30 in the afternoon and I only just showered and dressed. This morning was spent mooching about, waiting for emails, posting on GUT, watching tv... it struck me as I indulged in some serious shower meditation that this morning was a big lost opportunity.
Opportunities should be a time of challenge, don't you think? They should be used to find out new things about yourself and to experience life fully - not briefly and only just enough to post about it from a computer. I love GU and lots of the people on it, but I'm not sure it's good for me.
I'm going to try out some stuff that's good for me. And weaning myself off this laptop a little has to be good for me.

Absolutely.
You're by no means the only one to wonder about amounts of time spent in certain e-places, but that's about to change for me for reasons outside my control.
But if you do try challenging stuff and learn from the experience, it does no harm to share what you've learned from the experience or put it down somewhere like this so you don't forget it.
Enjoy your six weeks, and all the ones that follow it too!
Hey, uber - good to hear from you! I hope you're not going to lose touch during these changing circumstances... I will come back here and scribble thoughts as they occur. I may wander over to your blog and say this all over again!
