Void

Okay, so I lied about the next post coming within four days, but here it is, and the final one at that. I've realised that this whole blogging craze has come along just a little bit too late in my lifespan. I'm sure I would have made a great blog if I was still a media studies student, when I created and hosted, along with my friend, a reasonably popular webpage and had ample time on my hands to contribute to things floating around in cyberspace. I'm sure, I would have been a devout blogger back in the days when I was a spotty high school teenager. I remember the joy I used to get when my ramblings were the most often published in Britian's best, and most childish Amiga magazine of all the time, The One Amiga. (Yes, I was the one who was awarded 'Git of the Month' in the very last issue of the magazine. I've often thought about including it on my resume.)

But as things stand these days, I have a full time job, which, unlike some unfortunate people in the same profession, keeps me busy for the best part of the week. I will be getting married in just over a month, and wedding planning takes up the rest of my time. After the wedding, and when my then wife and I will be living together, I'm sure I'll will have other things to do than to publish the occassional entry on a blog, which neither I, nor anyone else really cares about.

When I started this blog, I had many fantastic ideas floating around that I sure would have turned it into a more interesting read. However, things didn't quite turn out that way, and for that I'm sorry. If anyone happens to stumble across my blog (thank you for the guy who found me by searching for 'Rick Rude', you got my vote), I'd like to invite you to check out the blog of my friend, Crunchy Hamster. His blog is a very interesting read, and how mine should have been. I wonder if I could hack into his account and change all his signatures to mine?... On second thoughts, he may get angry.

Well, that's enough rambling from me. It's time to put this blog to rest for good. Thank you to everyone who read even one word on my blog. Although it probably sounds pretty gay, if any of you are ever feeling down, you've got a friend in me.

Finally, I would like to quote my friends at The One.

'And, er... that's it!'
