May 28, 2003Drawbacks of CyberfriendshipsOver the past 12 years I have more and more emmersed myself in cyberspace. I have grown to basically live here, working and playing on a daily basis. It's weird, but I have way more cyber friends than I do physical "real world" ones. Although some of them are both, most live so far away I am lucky to see them even once a year, if at all. Hell, Tim(/me waves) and I have never ever met, and we worked together for years. And I think that is the draw back to such friendships. When you just need to get together after a crappy day and whine about it over a beer or a coffee, you just can't do it. After the hellish closure and failed rekindling of Merilus/NetMaster, my friendship with my best friend ended up with such a large wedge between us we seem to barely be able talk to each other. And when I look around now, I realize after so many years being reclusive in cyberspace and my work, all my close "real world" friends have moved farther and farther away, making it impossible. Maybe thats why I find blogging so therapudic. Even though I can't really blog my deepest and darkest thoughts and feelings, it still seems to be alright. Of course, I think I really need to get out to that big blue room and find some new friends, because I like going out for a drink... and hate drinking alone. And driving like 30 minutes to an hour just doesn't seem fun to me all the time. Oh well, I guess I should suck it up and just get back to this corona and my kernel debugger.
