In the Sunday paper (the New York Times, to be specific (I do think it sounds pretentious to read the NYT in Wyoming, but what passes for news in the local paper is usually some garbage about college football) and, besides, I like doing the Sunday crossword), I learned that I am a 'slow blogger'. This doesn't mean that I am unable to type fast or that my brain capacity is highly limited, but that I tend to reflect upon my words before writing them.
I am so relived to have found yet another label for myself. I must add it immediately to my Facebook and MySpace pages and twitter and tweet it to all my 582 friends.
I thought I was just bored of my blog topics, but it turns out that I am just meditating until the right one comes along. I didn't even know how deep I was.
Another label that I have discovered to describe my behavior is 'flexitarian'. I don't eat meat every day, but I can still muster up some interest in a juicy cheeseburger from time to time. I like tofu and veggies and fish and eggs. I thought I was an omnivore, but I guess that term just wasn't clear enough.
Some people have called me a 'cat person', but since I don't have whiskers, I'm not sure this is entirely accurate. Besides admiring felines, I also like other animals like goats, pandas and marmosets, but I've never been refered to as a 'marmoset person'. I read about this Chinese guy who climbed into a panda enclosure at a research facility to give the panda a hug. The panda bit him numerous times. This illustrates not only that people are stupid in every part of the world, but also that I am a 'panda person'.
I feel refreshed and one with the universe now that I have finished my slow blog.

Too bad we don't all reflect on our words before we say them too, it would be a happier place. Now isn't that profound?
And where has all your comment-makers gone? Are they slow bloggers too? Is it contagious?
What kind name is Tessie Armstrong, anyway? Why does she want to muzzle my freedom of speech? I can say anything I want.
Now, she's saying that slow blogging is a disease because it's contagious. So, I'm diseased? I'm not diseased.
