Gimme a language I can hang my post on!

It hit me I really ought to finally be done with "set autoindent" in the .vimrc. I think it's there because I used to write a lot more code, and thought I might return to that in a bigger way any day now. But that's clearly never going to happen.

               so bye bye
             miss c language
                 int i;

            drove my for loop
          toward the core dump
           but the loop count
                 ran dry

             them good 'ole
                  voids
          were storing pointers
                and chars

             singing this is
            how we increment
                    i
                 this is
            how we increment
                    i

These days I'm far more likely to paste others' verbiage into a vim session for triggerama inspiration, and paragraphs breaks can lead to ever indentational funk under the auspices of autoindent.

What is thought when you think about it?

My wife and I took our sweet time navigating the moments strung together between the endpoints of this day, watched some zany flick called "Rat Race", coffee and tea, ate as we pleased. And now she's readying for a drive past properties in the interest piquing zone en route to her younger sister's "antiques" store, chew some fat, shoot some shit, maybe buy a thing or two. You know.

Amazing dream last night in some resort hotel reminiscent of a place we briefly inhabited half a decade ago.

And you wanna know the most amazing thing of all?

That I somehow ever imagine anyone else could possibly be interesting in reading this tripe!

(ho ho ho hee hee hee ha ha ha)

Gimme spectacle, great Lord of Experientia!
