I would blog today if I could think of something to blog about, and I would have blogged yesterday too if I could have thought of something to blog about. Â It seems I have reached the bottom of the blogging barrel. I assume it’s just temporary, but time will tell.
So, while I’m waiting for the ideas to start flowing again, let’s play Ask Me Anything. I’ve seen this on a few other blogs. I seem to recall that XUP used this method to generate blogging ideas to sustain her through NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month, in which one commits to blogging every day for a month. Also known as NaNoblahblah).
Here’s how it works. You ask me questions in the comments or by email (zoomery at gmail dot com), and I’ll answer your questions in blog posts.
Subject-wise, anything goes. Just don’t ask me about stuff like transhumanism and its relation to quantum computing, or the hardness of simulating Newtonian physics.
Hi Knitnut:
I’ve been a lurker for a long time, and I enjoy your blog. I love the videos of your birds!
So, here’s my question:
Where’s the knitting, Knitnut?
@thatdarncat: Good question! What with the quilting bug hitting, and then pottery, my question is:
Have you considered other fiber-related hobbies?
Did you go outside and look up at the moon when Neil Armstrong went for a walk there in ’69?
Oh, I looked at the moon when Neil was there! It was a huge deal. That sure dates me. LOL
A topic I’d be interested in is the pros and cons of self-improvement and how it’s related to self esteem (if we have enough self esteem, do we even worry about improving ourselves?). Are we better off applying liberal amounts of acceptance and stressing less about how to make ourselves better? Does any of this make sense? Should I just see a counselor? LOL Sounds a little like “Lifetime of My Discontent” as opposed to just a cold season.
On a much lighter note, we haven’t seen much of Duncan lately; the Itty Bitty Kitty Committee and Maru help fill the cat cravings, but Duncan is one of my favorite innerweb kitties.
Oh, and are you still using your organizing system with all the file folders?
These are all such fantastic questions! Thank you! I can’t wait to start answering them.
You often post about writing, but I don’t recall ever seeing a post about reading? Are you an avid reader? If so, what types of books do you typically read? What do you look for in a book?
Is it okay to ask multi-part questions?
Multi-part questions are good.
Hi Zoom! I miss you tho we still have never met..
I would like to read your thoughts about romantic relationships. What has life taught you about them? What makes for a good relationship or a bad one for you? should a good one still take work, sometimes hard work?
Cheers!
yer best friend you never met
