swingin' good times

So I'm in the mood to write and I don't care what. You want a rant? Fine. Controversial political opinion? Yeah, not gonna happen. My ideas are too much for this world. Anyway, as I said, I'm in the mood to write. What exactly puts me in the mood, I hear you ask. Well, it requires one or more of the following:

1. Something cool to write about
2. Good music
3. A door in my mind to open up without a bouncer

Though, for true masterpieces (or total random) you need to add lack of sleep. Much like now. I'm running on 3 hours, with an 8-hour shift under my belt. Literally, if I wore a belt and felt inclined to put my roster there. I might just do that one day, when I could be bothered putting a belt on. People would comment on my new style and it'd be like highschool all over again when I cleverly wore my timetable inside my hat for quick viewing. It was a growing trend before hats became uncool.

Speaking of hats, I like the one I wear at work. I made a new style with it. I call it the "helmut" because it looks like a helmut. An aerodynamic helmut. For speed, because when I work, I work fast. Ish. And that's all you need to know about it!

Speaking of knowledge, here's one.

You know, it's funny how in an era where technology rules pretty much everything, save for 2/3 of the world. Ok, let me try that again. In an era where technology rules that which rules the world, you'd be surprised how desperate some are to cling onto older, messy ways. Like writing with pen and paper. I know, I know, it's great to use pens and such. Assuming you're handwriting isn't like mine, in which case it's as great as a non-great white shark. But seriously, we have word-processers, or, if you like, an infinite supply of paper on a computer screen. Don't be a smart arse and talk about Printing. That's the point I'm making. Printing is the final step; the efficient use of paper. When it's all been edited/deleted/mutilated/copied/pasted/corrupted and ready to come out into the real world. In theory. Of course it doesn't ever happen like this, but you get the idea. It doesn't matter though, because you're still utilising what you have available instead of forcing yourself to be traditional and dirty a perfectly good sheet of paper with your scrawl.

That'll do for that argument. I want to keep going, I really do, but I'm afraid of the irony that might appear. Keep your pens and paper, but don't be stupid and think it's better one or the other. Before you say it, I never said using the computer was better. I was merely arguing against the idea that "writing with a computer is bad."

Arguing with three hours of sleep... I'll get it!

Stay cool, unless it's snowing.
