I'm confused today because my bedside clock said 5.20 so I made tea and came to check the overnight loops... but my pc says it was an hour earlier. Is it my eyesight or have the clocks changed! I've been rising earlier and earlier which means I go to sleep earlier (watching some rubish on TV) If this keeps happening I will soon disappear in a swirling vortex that sucks me up to a timeless existance. On the plus side, maybe I will become young and beautiful again and I'll be able to reach those disappearing vocal high notes :D:o<3

There is nothing good about getting old, the only thing is maybe you have more experience and a bit more level headed.

But I found there is one good thing old age gave me: I need less sleep :D :D :D

Thanks TeeGee, however I now know it wasn't my age causing the confusion it was the 'Time Lords' that changed the time zone setting on my pc and transported me to the past .... thankfully I am now Back to the future.

Shamika, even your observations on things happening around you have a lyrical feel to them.

Nice of you to say that Teg, everything I see, hear, read or that happens seems to spark off a possible song/lyric in me :o

To carry on with the TIME saga. Right now my screen is showing 07:43 but the actual time is 08:12 so I have 29 minutes to hover in the time transporter before I get to live in real time again.

The problem is, my pc is very old and I'm still on Windows 7. I've been offered a new machine but I'm worried I might lose all my songs and videos and the programs I use in the transfer.... having said that, I suppose I could lose them all anyway if the drive's wheels fall off and I crash into a wall of oblivion somehow. :D

End of August is approaching, I feel September vibes a little, "Vorboten des Septembers", the vibes tell me... weather will get cold, people will stop going outside, WL uploads will increase, Summer will be gone, but despite all of this, it is still August today. I send you kitchen greetings.

I didn't expect the diary to keep going so long but it's a stubborn thread, it won't go down without a fight :D

Today my foot felt much better so I walked around the nearby graveyard in my new, thick soled trainers..
I noticed in the natural burial area there were many fresh mounds of earth.
I got to thinking that humans (whoever created them) have a design fault !
Instead of having to deal with the dying process, wouldn't it be better to just 'fade away' as you floated to the sky while your loved ones waved goodbye. Sorry if this is a bit morbid.... but these thoughts belong in a diary to be read in the future.

I was wondering, how come I see wild birds and animals killed by predators, traffic or shot by humans.... but I never find a creature that has just died of old age?
