More content...please

Working on some work-type issues, writing late at night. I recently killed one of my older blogs because I want to have a real Miller blog. One of the problems I had with the old blog is that when I write I get introspective, which quickly turns to maudlin depression and then I start writing about personal stuff I don't even want to think about, let alone turn over to permanent Internet custody with my name on it.

I think this is called the process of finding your voice. Obviously I am still looking. I could make this a multi-subject blog, where I could just write about things I'm interested in. I tried that with the old one but it just turned into posting links and bitching about hard-hearted capitalists and the lobbyists who love them. No one wants to read that.

What do they want to read? What do -I- want to read?


Today's note to future self:
Did you ever answer that question, future self? At the age I am now it seems like there are not that many new horizons for me.

Ideas for future blog posts:

1. Personal finance, specifically building a portfolio. I'd like to find a good investment club. Maybe I should start one, with all this, you know, free time I have while I'm working at 11:55 PM.


2. Bible study in a year? No I don't want to join the evangelistas, in fact I have a great deal of contempt for what they've led us into, but I do feel the need for spiritual refreshment and maybe a 1 year Bible study would do the trick?


3. Certification exam. Yawn. Just thinking about it bores me. God.


4. Something else techie....maybe writing but probably not. I think my muse has finally died. She still likes to play Battleflag and Up North for me every now and then, but I think my left brain reigns supreme and right-y is down for the count. Who knows, I thought that in '94 too and then City of Angels and Nightcrawlers came along.

Music:
