I used to (and to be honest, still do) suffer from Zombie Worker Syndrome, where during the week I am one of the undead going from home to work, work to lunch, lunch to work, work to home, home to bed.  It&#8217;s an easy rut to travel in, but it&#8217;s not what I would call the apex of living.  This blog has made my brain much more active.  The juices flow.  I can&#8217;t say I don&#8217;t stagger through my day from time to time, but I believe I&#8217;ve shed at least a portion of my zombieness.<\/p>\n<p>Starting my <a href=\"http:\/\/negativesignage.blogspot.com\/\">negative space signage<\/a> blog has pushed me out of the house on a self-created scavenger hunt.  There have been some nice side effects of being on the hunt &#8212; I&#8217;ve noticed lots of interesting architecture, and have wandered a lot of neighborhoods and cities I have never been to before.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ablogofnotes.blogspot.com\/\">A Blog Of Notes<\/a> has made me more alert to the sound environment we all move through on a daily basis.  Yesterday my train was sitting still, and I noticed a freight train next to us start moving.  The wheels of the train starting making this high-pitched musical squeak.  I immediately pulled my audio recorder out of my backpack and recorded the sounds.  During the two minutes the train went by us, a really eerie, haunting song unfolded for me, and it was all due to the fact that I was being alert and listening.<\/p>\n<p><span>Eerie Freight Train<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/isplotchy.com\/notes\/sounds\/eeriefreighttrain.mp3\">Link<\/a><\/p>\n<p>And of course, I am very grateful for all the people I have connected with since starting this blog.  I initially met people through <a href=\"http:\/\/sprawlingramshacklecompound.blogspot.com\/\">Bubs<\/a>, and then over the course of time I somehow knew a lot more people.  It was neat how it just sort of organically happened.<\/p>\n<p>Along the way I have realized how connectedness is something really important to me.  A lot of the things I try out, whether it be 60 Second doodles, collaborative mix tapes, or adopting actors all have a way of connecting me with other people.<\/p>\n<p>So, anyways, I don&#8217;t know that I&#8217;ll be doing this forever, but it&#8217;s been fun so far. I&#8217;ll try and hold off on doing one of these posts again until I get to One Zero Zero Zero Zero.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey, it&#8217;s my 1,000th post on I, Splotchy!
