Sombre me

...my Yahoo messenger that ist kaputt, or is it a widespread problem, I wonder?

I junked MSN Messenger because of its unreliability. Now they've teamed up with Yahoo, I'm getting Yahoo IM problems.

Doesn't take a genius to work out what the problem is.

Unless, of course, it's something that I've inadvertently done whilst blindly fiddling around with settings, not knowing what the hell I'm doing really but blagging my way through my reputation in the family as being the one who 'knows about computers'.

Hah! As the old adage goes, 'Just because she spends all day on a computer, it doesn't mean she knows how to program it.'

OK, I just made that up. Ooh. Wonder if it'll work its way into everyday use.

Ah. I've got to do a re-install and probably a re-boot, according to an esteemed correspondent.

Brb.

...due to the inability to think of anything interesting to say.

Still can't, but thought I'd pop my head 'round the door.

Actually, I've been all over the place emotionally. I really do have to be in the right 'mood' for blogging and that particular mood has eluded me for quite a while.

I don't know how people keep their blogs going from day to day. Same as I don't know how TV/radio presenters remain chirpy on a daily basis. How is it that other people don't seem to get low like I do, I ask myself.

Then I ponder on that for a while, come to the conclusion that actually they probably do, it's just a matter of getting the hell on with it and putting up a front. Then I beat myself up a bit for being so inward-looking and pathetic in comparison, try and snap out of it, fail miserably and end up wallowing in my own festering bog of self-pitying bullshit even more.

And so the cycle goes on and on and on...
