Its a rant, but not as you know it

So, this is a blog.

I'm not entirely sure what to do with a blog except that on those nights when I'm at home and bored I should write crap late into the night and try and talk about something meaningful. I don't know if I can do meaningful, so I'm just going to write crap.

So why do I have a blog?

Well, the other day I was thinking to myself that I haven't spoken to anyone "back home" for such a long time. I've even got bad with writing emails. In fact I've tried three times to unsuccessfully write a bulk email to everyone. I tried and didn't succeed. So this blog is that bulk email. It is the email that no-one likes to receive because who really likes a ranter anyway? Well, I do, but that's an entirely different story. Possibly something to write an entry on?

Yep (back to the story), a time difference of half a world is crap, but at the end of the day with mobile phones, landlines, email, postal system and blogs there really isn't an excuse. Now for a complete mind trip - I'm not going to tell anyone I have this site - well not just yet. I'm going to make random comments on other peoples sites and see what happens. Call this a mini experiment in social networking, call me damn lazy, call me ... well call me anything you want really. I'm still going to do it.

So, in the meantime, I think I might try and pretty up this ugly page. Maybe I'll post a picture of me, maybe I'll post a picture from my trip to Malta fom last week, or maybe I'll just try and sort out those crap links on the side of this webpage. Who knows? Again, so many options.

So now something "meaningful". What was I doing tonight to give me the time to write this entry? I was job hunting. I hate job hunting, it takes up months of my year and it is always stressful wondering if someone is going to pay the outrageous rates I charge to sit on my butt all day. I mean, I'm a talented man, I have great skills and can web surf with the best of them. I know how to turn on a computer, how to talk on a phone, what more is there to life?

But I've set the wheels in motion, so if anyone knows of a job in London for me...?

Anyway, more about that later. I have to check the weather forecast for Belgium.
