Having nothing to say, no words but the words of others, I have to speak

I'm looking in the mirror and I have a dog's head. It's a small dog, rather well-groomed, with a bear-like snub nose and golden-brown hair. I have to go somewhere, see an art exhibition in rural Turkey, catch a train to the mountains... Oh, wait, that was a dream. I've woken up. I don't feel so great in the mornings -- a bit stiff. I'll be fine ( Read more... )

How long will you respond to comments on your Wednesday entry? Or will Tuesday be your last comment day?

It ain't over until the fat lady blogs about what she's blogging about!

Momus, I was actually thinking about how you might feel due to the fact that you will end your blog and also a part of your daily life in two days! - you might be a little bit nervous, even afraid or just extremely happy to get rid of the hole burden.
You might even regret your decision to stop the blog on Wednesday. But whatever happens, please never make a comeback in some years!!
I personally never liked the idea of a comeback, never in music and especially in sports - what about blogging I ask myself - would I restart following your blog when you would decide to reopen it in lets say 3 years - I hope I would not click through your opera at that time - there is always an end to certain things.

Nevertheless thanks for the last couple of years,
W.

after you end the blog you could start blogging about your post-blogging life.

I've had a lengthy love-hate relationship with your blog since you started it, quitting reading it in periods when i felt the thoughts contained in it were dominating my own too much, becoming a bit of a "blogger groupie" when i first moved to berlin, even having occasional random dreams with you (none of them sexual!) so this going to be a sad goodbye. I was around 21 years old when I started reading you and much of what was said here went way over my head back then, so I didn't dare comment much, but the glimpses of other worlds you offered were always illuminating.
Looking forward to meeting you in Osaka if you move there!

Why, are you in Osaka now, Mario?

no, but who knows?I am saving up to do a tour of asia in the near future, when im done with school. I have a friend who is doing the peace corps in mongolia, and another working in shanghai, and a possible tour in japan with internet2, so i might draw a line starting with the transmongolian train and ending in osaka, this summer, and give staying in japan another try.
