It’s amazing how many things you can miss while taking a short break from social media. After only two weeks of non-stop business learning at UVic, I’ve come back a few times to discover that some blue and black dress has blown up on the internet setting people into a frenzy because it actually looks white and gold. Just before that there was a blogging uproar and the blogosphere turned upside down after two amazing blogs set some impressive and apparently overpowering records. I feel like I’m out of loop already!

Free verse and my poetic mind. I can’t believe the speed of these times… there’s no rewind.

A blackout?

Numbers pile up as statistics run wild and technology rapidly increases faster than babies are born and all the while I sit here in a little corner of the interwebs and wonder to myself…

What would happen if it all just disappeared?

What would we do??

We would be in the dark and hidden from technology.

Maybe it’s because I’m really upset that Revolution was cancelled, but I have dreams of the power going out for good and finally being “off-grid” officially and forever.

If it actually happened we could totally bring back those tin can string telephones and have to walk miles just to say hello to people and friends in the same town. We would never know where anyone was anymore so we would have to come together once again and send telegrams and bring back horse carriages and forget about cars…

*Day Dreamers*

Unfortunately there would be no heat in winter. That would suck… but that’s OK because we would just burn our furniture and cars. We could live in huts in the forest and let all the plant life take over the cities and we would no longer see the concrete jungle…

The stars would be brighter.

Would time melt away?

Sometimes my mind goes crazy.
