Turning off the Interface

I’m going to take a break again from blogging. I’m not in fact taking ‘a break’ – I’ll just be using the free time in the mornings towards my story and other offline activities for a while. It’s all part of the move to remove myself from being interfaced.

Whenever I increase my efforts of communication, I end up in a situation where I’m then being talked to. This happened the other day when I responded to an email sent by an old London friend (we go back 15 years). It then turns into a ‘dialogue’ with a follow-up email if I don’t respond to a couple of points. That’s why I uninstalled Skype, msn, deactivated Facebook etc.  - I just don’t like being interfaced.

Luckily, my BF is the same. The ideal scenario for us is to just be recluses and do things together or separately (him on the Xbox 360, me reading The Guardian or pottering), without anyone else involved other than the cat

As for the writing – I have started my story. Once it’s done, I will discuss next steps on here. I’m sure I’ll also be back with my plans for 2010, seeing that ‘09 is nearly over. I have a feeling 2010 will be important – certainly some key things must happen. Life is not a dress rehearsal.
