Words that once were

I was certain I had written (and saved) a blog entry for February 26, but it seems to have been sucked into some black hole of cyberspace. Where do the bits and bytes of life's moments go when they are sure in our minds and then they suddently vanish while they are being conveyed across the internet? It's almost as though these events never happened at all when our writing of them is lost. If life is a comic book waiting to be pulled from a rack and read, does what we do really happen if no one ever bothers to read it?

I really should not attempt these kinds of thoughts in the evening. I'm far too tired to make a point and far too annoyed to let the matter drop, rather like a drunk who keeps repeating herself everytime she is roused from her drunken stupor. The only cure (for me) is to leave this topic and go get some sleep. And so I will.

Quote Of The Moment
The greatest happiness of life it the conviction that we are loved - loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves. -Victor Hugo.

Stealin' copy is as bad as horse-thievin'
and cattle rustlin'! Lightning may strike
such varmints when they least expect it!
