As I mentioned a week ago, there are plenty of people out there posting weblogs like this one. I noted as well that too many of them are lame attempts at creativity. When I found one called troubled_diva: "Dermot O'Leary does the South Bank Show", I was certain I had found an excellent example of crap to prove my point. I was, however, delightfully surprised.
A polar opposite of my Mainstream-American-Main-Street-Working-Stiff bloggery, the Troubled Diva is a gay man in London who documents his life, as I do mine, on his web page. He has a Brit's flare for getting his point across with well-worded pinache, and his life is interesting (to us on Main Street. He finds it all very boring, I'm sure). I've been reading his page for a few days now, and I can't help checking in on him de temp à temps to see what's going on in his universe. Vacation update: Not much happening. I built a worthwhile mast-raising system today. We also bought some pansies (which may have inspired me to mention the Diva), and Janice planted them. A good day overall. Our Thanksgiving pies are in the fridge, so we're ready for dinner tomorrow with family.
