Natural and Normal

Life right now: it's Natural and it's Normal. Very natural! And very, very normal! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, don't settle for less: you deserve it. It's the way life is meant to be lived.

Today I received a donut: 120cm in diameter, 100% polyvinyl chloride, strawberry with assorted flakes. It will lift me over the water but it won't keep me dry. It would lift me over the sea and carry me all the way to Oceania if I asked it to, but I won't; I don't have time. It will lift me over a lake, and that's all I could hope for and it will be natural, and it will be normal.

In 2003 two men fought online about how content in the web should be syndicated[1]. I wonder how things would be different if we hadn't let facebook monopolize social spaces online. Not very different in the ways that matter, probably. This blog is now available in RSS format[2], or if you prefer in plain text[3], both formats natural, natural and normal.

I've been thinking about the weather a lot.

Life right now: it's Natural and it's normal. Very natural! And very, very normal!
