Spring Cleaning: Part 1

The Blog Sidebar
Gone. The malfunctioning blogroll, the useless subscribe options, the ads, the logos, all the cool cute stuff. I don't miss it. I barely remember what was there or why I even had it... mostly useless. Some experiments, now dead and done. Mostly, extremely cringeworthy.

Haloscan
What started this? I think it was - Haloscan. After two or three years of ignoring buggy code, I finally got down to it and wiped it. Lost some comments, but who cares.
I felt light. I felt... freed.

Torrents and Games
I left the PC off last night. Ferelden can take care of itself for a while. No torrents either. I've barely started seeing the stuff I've downloaded. What's still coming in, can wait a little longer. In fact... maybe I should just leave it off.

Went for a walk instead. Listened to music. I like this feeling.
Life is too complicated, too messy. The circumstances will color perception. The junk outside will infect my mind. Has infected my mind.

It's time... to exorcise.

Spring Cleaning

I, am in, a spring-cleaning mood. 
I usually let it finds its outlet in

  • Cleaning up my room
  • Getting the bike serviced
  • Formatting my hard disk
  • Updating my CV
  • Changing flats
  • Going on a holiday
But this time... I want to do more than just that. I want to do all of the above. And more. 
Dangerous times. 

Feel... heavy. Weighed down. Too many things. Too much to worry about. 
Ballast. 
The trick to never have any regrets is to never look back. If I take an axe to the ropes now... I will need to remember this. 
If, of course, it comes to the axe. I need to backup first. 
What the hell - it's good Feng Shui anyway. 

Watch this space.
