Blogging on the Train

· 1 min read ·

I apologize for not having written more recently.   One of the most over-used excuses anyone ever gives for anything is "I just don't have enough time."  I hate using that excuse and would rather wake up at four than to spend my life saying it, but I haven't had much time recently?honestly.

I bought a new laptop which I am using for my current contract.  I try to blog some while on the train.  I figured it would be the ideal time to do it.  I am forced to sit down (hopefully) and think about things.

But I have problems blogging on the train.

First, I can't get the guy sitting next to me to stop reading what I'm writing.  I find it very unnerving.  They just crane their head around and watch what I type.  How bored can you be?  Can't they just bring a book?  Every typo, every backspace, every random thought?they just sit gormlessly watching me type.

Second, I never get control of the arm rest.  It must be something they teach British kids in school, because I always lose the armrest battle.  It's impossible to type with your elbows in front of your stomach.

Anyway, I'm going to post when I can.
