The older I get, the more I miss places and experiences that no longer exist.
- I miss browsing bookmarks on the wire spinning racks near the registers at Waldenbooks.
- My first car was a shitty little Toyota hatchback that burned through a quart of oil a week, but I could fit so much stuff in there. Maybe what I miss is having a hatchback.
- Having to look up movie showtimes in the newspaper.
- Being a kid and walking over a mile to the pool (unsupervised!) to spend a few hours swimming. Bonus points if I had enough money to buy a frozen snickers bar to gnaw on during Adult Swim when all the kids were kicked out of the pool for 10 minutes every hour.
I'm back on my bullshit!
Well, at least I plan to be. This is a fairly shitty example so far. Also hi, I swear a lot. Anyways, I used to hand-code a site on Fortunecity ages and ages ago before it died. I then moved to blogging software like Blogger, Movable Type, Vox, and Wordpress. Fuck, I miss Vox. Anyways, here i go giving Neocities a try to see if I will enjoy going back to my poorly coded roots.
In the meantime, plese enjoy this picture of my cat trying to kill me with her brain:
