La Bene Vita

Sunday: Updates

Even in Writing.com, blogging must step aside and bow to the mighty microblog. At work, we can't get the teen employees to read their email. If you want to check whether they can cover a shift, you have to Facebook or text them. Damn, I feel so flipping old.

And yet, a new radio station has kicked off in my town, Gen X Radio. It's pretty sweet. They play Black-Eyed Peas then Backstreet Boys then Def Leppard then Nickelback. Like, all in a row. They advertise themselves as the best mix tape you ever made, but without all the pausing. Clearly, the market is still there. We're still alive, for a little while.

Still hovering between 210-215 somewhere.

Writing:
(1) Blog at MT.com   by the end of Wednesday: Nope.
(2) 30 minutes of daily freestyle writing: No, but I'm reading "The Catcher in the Rye" for the first time. It took many, many chapters to get into it, but it's moving okay now. I'm starting to get the point that Holden Caulfield is the biggest cynic in the history of mankind.

Count points:
YESTERDAY: Bleh.
