Have you ever?
Insane Girl, Just a thought February 25th, 2007Found yourself wishing you could gather all of your favorite people from your entire life, living or otherwise for just one night to enjoy their company all at once?
Sometimes I feel very lonely for conversation with those of a similar mind. I’m not saying that my husband doesn’t provide that and that we don’t have similar interests. We do. It just seems that some of those interests are not the same and I miss the conversation. Since having all of the guys together, the debates about theology and politics and philosophy and authors and their works, all seemed to cease and now it’s nothing but cars. Cars. Cars. Cars.

Remember when the blogosphere was the one place you could pretend to be in that gathering? When the room was just a little bit less crowded and the politics of just being part of the once-exclusive community of bloggers wasn’t anything serious?
What I would do for a real live holodeck sometimes to accomplish exactly what you’re proposing…

Funny that you should mention a Holodeck. There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t wish for a Holodeck, Transporter and Replicator.
I think those small “cliques” still exist in the blogosphere, however, too many are burned out on politics and being stabbed in the back by others along the way that we either get stagnant with our blogging, or way too personal, or way to caustic in order to “protect” ourselves from the emotional drama that really isn’t needed in our online activities because the God/s/ess know/s we don’t need it here as life beyond our blogs is full of enough excitement for anyone.
