Argh! Okay, I’ve been invited to chat on yet a third messenger application. One is Yahoo! Messenger, the second is AOL Instant Messenger and now Windows Live Messenger! I cannot sit on my desk the whole day to find out what is up with people who either are interested in chatting with me or whatever the case may be.
So I’m online with one chatting application and see three ‘friends’ online. So far noone has initiated a simple ‘Hello’ or ‘Hi’ or ‘Greetings’. I feel so left by myself and with my thoughts. This means they are either too busy with their own lives and working to keep abreast without my concern or knowledge. It’s none of my business either.
Blogging is okay and allows me to express the same thoughts literally to the public and without any feedback or comments mostly. With chatting, however, the same thoughts are read and a conversation rolls with other people. Anything goes by chatting but within the agreement set forth by these darn terms, rules and guidelines.
Earlier this morning, a forum moderator from last year suddenly ‘peep’ his presence with a greeting. I was surprised he even remembered my old Yahoo! account and of course I reply using his name. We chatted a little and then signed off in a few minutes because my parental units were hollering from downstairs in their impatience to go shopping. He moved on with his life and I berated him for getting involved with a chic that is totally not his match.
I think I should be one of those advice columnist, a Counselor Troy from the ‘Star Trek: The Next Generation‘ series and let people know how to better handle simple situations in their lives by sharing my open and honest insights (as one of my other chatter describes). Actually, I’ve gotten only one positive response via one of my conspiracy forum posts and then she ‘fused’ with this other character in her life. I got lots of hugs from her as from the other dude VIA ONLINE.
This may be one of my purposes. Maybe I should look into a social service field. For now, I’ll be twiddling my thumbs until any sign of ‘good news’ happen to manifest soon. I’m really getting bored being an arm chair guru of all sorts, too.
