As I lay here wide awake in the wee hours of the morning, and my mind just wondering, I find it hard to imagine what my life would be like today if there had not been an invent of the internet. I'm trying to remember some of things that I was doing and some of the things that I wanted to be doing before it even came along.
I do remember that I was doing a lot if writing at the time. A whole lot of it. I would be sitting up at all hours of the night (like I'm doing now) just writing... writing short stories... writing songs... writing poetry... whatever came to mind.
But the internet came along, and the things I was doing slowly but surely started to shift. My fascination of websites just blew me away. I wanted to know everything about them... how are they built... what makes them work... and how far can be reached with them. It was like being able to travel the world without even leaving my living room. And it was totally amazing to me... and I knew that I want be a part if building that... So I self taught myself how. Since the only thing that I really knew about was also a thing that I have been involved with many years prior, I decided to build one based on that exact same subject... Go-Go music and its culture. Hence... TMOTTGoGo.
That was 16 years ago. I had no idea back then how long I would be doing it, and still have no idea today. I just know that over the course of those 16 years it has absorbed every sense if my existence and every core of my soul. And to this day I have no idea if that's a good thing or a bad one... because it varies as each day goes by.
And in that note, I think I'm gonna go ahead and get me some sleep... and clear my head.
Good Night / Good Morning, Y'all.
