I'm trying to keep this away from being a personal weblog because personal weblogs cheapen existence, but ultimately, that's what it is. One's life just becomes even more "content" on the Internet. Life become a description, however deftly and elequently put forth, represented largely by words in a box; literally, in a big CSS text box. There is no mystery, except for wondering what the next post might be. Hmmm, what will the next piece of "content" of my life I can describe in a text box on a blog? Conceptualizing my life as "content-in-a-box" even cheapens the sexy gnostic idea of a simulacrum.
I had nothing better to write about, and I am trying to write regularly. So, here's something: I exercised today and I'm tired. I've been exercising regularly.
June 10, 2008 UPDATE: I changed the title of this post because it did not reflect the content of the post. The old title was: "Yeah, Why Madison?" which I overheard from a TV commercial whilst composing. The new title is different. It begins to reflect the content of this post, but is mostly confined to reflecting the content of this Update.
