Ahead of the Curve
I’ve mentioned this before, but I write almost all of my posts ahead of time and they post on an automatic schedule, once a day every weekday. It takes advantage of downtime at work and the times I can’t otherwise be at a computer.
Sometimes it’s hard coming up with things to write about. Sometimes life is boring and doesn’t change much. The routine is the routine, and nothing notable or new comes around. I could talk about the economy, politics, or whatever else is in the news, but that’s kind of blah. That involves me broadening my horizons.
Steve at my old job used to call me a knowledge-miser, hoarding knowledge for no purpose other than to simply know. I suppose that’s mostly true, but now that I think about it a bit harder, it’s more specialized than that. I prefer to deepen the knowledge in fields that I already know about, or, rather, interested in. That sounds silly now that I’ve stated it though, that’s straight-up preference. I’m not interested in what I’m not interested in. Big shocker there.
So when there’s nothing to write about, I can always ramble!
