I was looking at all the blank space on my page & it started to piss me off, so I'm just gonna rant...

If I can't rant against what's REALLY bugging me, maybe ranting on something else might take the stressy edge off or whatever...

I am f#%king fed up w/ Myspace. I've tried to quit & kill my account so many times, but somehow keep getting sucked back in. The place is DEAD... dead but w/o zombies to make it fun ( me likes da zombeh... brains!! ). It's become like one huge redlight district w/ people whoring themselves or pimping their bands/companies/whatever. Call me stupid but I am actually there to network & meet people... as in make a few friends.. that means TALK to people on a more or less regular basis. I don't have a huge number on ANY friends list on ANY site... I refuse to blindly collect numbers for the sake of it & if I don't actually talk to someone or they just fade out on my ass, then they are not going on the list. Simple as that.

Anyway... I only go on there to talk to maybe a couple of people. Even then... one of them I now chat to on Yahoo IM instead of Myspace. So basically I am only keeping the account alive to chat to ONE other person... this creature used to e-mail me at my regular address but then sort of stopped, so I'm trying to play it safe. This person is highly cool & I thought had become an actual friend instead of just a 'Net-contact. So I don' want to just cut him out of my life. The only other reason I keep my account alive is for networking... I write & if I ever get into the position where I need bands to interview in some distant future then it's a resource to mine or whatever.

The problem isn't JUST confined to Myspace... you'll find it everywhere...

My girlfriend says I should just poke people. But that is so not my style. I prefer to reply mail for mail... too much more than that & it feels like I'm stalking someone & starts to look pathetic after a while. Besides.. you have to be realistic, sometimes life gets in the way.

So I have no idea what to do about my artist so-called 'friend' Jim... or anyone/anything else, for that matter... just kinda tired of the situation, that's all.
