Dear Internet,

I’m sorry I have neglected you.

There is a new girl in my life, a real human, but that is not what this is about. You have been supportive with that and even facilitated our relationship with iSight and GMail. The neglect has been due to the doldrums of an occupation.

I never thought I’d be a working man, working a nine to five job. I thought I could work a four hour day, somehow make a great living, and spend the rest of my day on the Internet. There was nothing that told me this would be remotely possible, and I had no skillset to be able to accomplish this, but it was what I thought to be attainable. Well, my reality has become that of a working man. It has come to the point, where I am beginning to neglect you, someone that has always been there for me.

Normally, I write on my website almost daily except for weekends. My posts are generally thoughts and musings on things I have read, seen, or even imagined. Work is cutting into that time, not just to post, but also to come up with writing material. I normally write posts in segments, writing a couple minutes at a time, saving a draft, and adding a few more sentences until I have a post. It is a sad day when I don’t feel like I have the time to interject some time for you, even if it’s only a couple minutes at a time during the day. I just feel like life has become too easy and routine and I have taken you for granted.

I want to make an attempt to rekindle this relationship that has been so important to me in the past decade, even if it’s just for a short while. I want to commit to contributing to you and not just taking from you. That is why I am making this public commitment.

Starting Monday I am going to go vegetarian for a week. I will document my struggle on the Internet for all to see. This way I can get out of the working rut and get into some new an exciting adventures. It will bring some interruption to the boredom of an eight hour schedule, where my thoughts are not my own.

Who knows? Maybe this can be a theme for my website. I can try new and different things and through those things, I can give back to the Internet. I can try to do more ocean fishing, go a week without showering, or spend a whole weekend awake. By adding new activities to my life, I will actually spend more time with the Internet rather than more time away from her. It’s like bringing another person for a threesome to enhance your relationship, almost a smart move. I digress.

Internet, this is my commitment to you. I will spend more time with you.

Until they invent robot girlfriends,
