The World Outside

wishusEastercon happened, and for the most part it was immensely pleasurable. However, during the weekend I started feeling pretty ropey. Hotels, aeroplanes... with all the travelling I've been doing lately, I must have been exposed to loads to evil germs - and one of them got me.
Hence, a lot of stuff has gone on in the world, but I've been in my sick bed, too tired most of the time to even put a film on, but not getting much sleep either for all that.
And things went on in the Black Mirror. I saw some of them and in my sickened state I wondered if some of it was actually real. Some incidents involved me... and caused me great upset and confusion, because I had to deal with them when I really should have been resting. I've also seen discussion of things that are nothing to do with me; other people are looking at their monitor and asking themselves why they were being subjected to stupid rubbish when all they have done is tried to help, to promote the things they are passionate about. I'm being deliberately cryptic here, but I've been told about one person being upset about something today and what I wanted to say is that it doesn't matter who it is or what it's about... it's not a huge thing and I don't want to contribute to the snowball. I want to see this sort of thing stop.
I want to see positive things. I want to see real things. I live in a great town, with some wonderful, creative people. In all likeliness, so do you.
So, I probably have stuff to say about my supermarket challenge... just know it is going well. I'm leaving this screen alone for a bit and getting out into the garden. The birds are singing, the weeds are growing. Also, I need the exercise.
