SWARTHOS

I sat here for a moment pondering what I was going to title this post. First thought was to call it “Original Intention” but I saw that it didn’t fit properly so I changed my mind. I then thought I might call it birthright but that was just a word that popped into my head and had no relevance to what I was going to rant about here.

So I settled on Original as in my original intention for this blog has been lost. Quite frankly I hadn’t even remembered that I had this blog until last night. These past few days, well let me start that thought over. I quit playing the video game Elite Dangerous as it was sucking the life out of me, consuming most of my free time and I like to be creative.

So these past few days I’ve been reviewing all my online media, that is all the blogs, vlogs and websites I’ve created and attempted to maintain over the years. These are important things to me. [I just spent about 3 minutes wondering what word to use instead of “things”] So, all of these things, blogs, vlogs and websites are what I fantasize as one day being part of a Great Repository in the Future Digital Wasteland.

I have to digress yet again. Future Digital Wasteland. Future Digital Wasteland is a term that I believe I coined. At least, it appears as though I’m the first person to use it in a post online. I originally posted it using my SWARTHOS persona and then again recently on my SATOK63 YouTube channel and also Blog. Well, I noticed someone else used it to describe a scene in a play they were producing. I don’t know, it irked me a bit. I have no patent on that sentence, that phrase isn’t owned by me. Heck, perhaps I heard it mentioned years ago and it resided in my deep cluttered subconscious until it resurfaced a couple years back. But still, it bothered me. Why the hell have I gone off on this tangent? Right on! I have no idea how I arrived here. As I mentioned somewhere on this site, this is how I like to blog or whatever.

Yeah, my original intentions for this site was lost. I think maybe I was just going to post random updates and such but I feel a strong desire to be more active with it. I like it because it is free… Not because I’m a cheapskate, you see I have two website domains that I pay for each year. SWARTHOS.com and CaffeinatedCyberGiant.com < right on. Problem is, I’m getting close to retirement and I didn’t plan well during my life and I won’t have that much money any more so I’ve been periodically creating free sites and adding my mindless banter to them.

Hey! My incense stick holder burner thing arrived. [I just got back from eating an apple and checking the mail]

That’s it. $500.00 American Dollars. 🙂 Not really, I think it was like $2.00

I just turned 60 last month and I don’t feel healthy. I do have some health issues like high blood pressure that I take medication for and high cholesterol that I also take medication for. High cholesterol is a funny thing because I’ve never been a meat eater. For the last 40 years of my life I’ve pretty much not eaten meat or cheese etc. Anyway, the medication worked amazingly. I went from 220 to 60 for bad cholesterol in a matter of just a few short weeks, and that was at the lowest prescribed dosage.

But now the rest of me doesn’t feel good. Like Napoleon Dynamite said on the phone “I don’t feel good”. My feet don’t have good circulation in them and they get blistered easily when I run. I enjoy running a couple miles every morning and then I also hit my stationary bike in the afternoon. I’m not a sedentary person, I’ve always worked out and eaten healthy but I still have issues. I guess it’s hereditary. Imagine how bad off I’d be if I never took care of myself?!

I guess I’ll close this off here. Hopefully I won’t lose track of this Blog again and perhaps I can keep my paid websites going. I know I don’t have a lot of interesting things to say, I have these sites solely so that I can feel like a participant in this timeline. I was here, I played a very small part. I lived a life and had thoughts that were my own.
