Monday Musing

As I sit here and type frantically, my XBox is blipping away in the background. I recently submitted a Monday Musing. Unfortunately, nothing appeared on the Dashboard for a while - in fact, Monday Musing seemed to disappear altogether for a while...

But then, a message appeared: "you've been featured." "Featured in what?", I thought. Unfortunately, my internet has been acting up over the weekend. So, naturally, it immediately disconnected once I received that message rendering me unable to reply or check the dashboard.

Once it came back, the blips came thick and fast. Friend requests, messages, chat invites and party invites. For the most part, people were pleased for me. Suddenly, I became a celebrity for my brief moment of fame. With that came the inevitable disagreement. Surprisingly few people disagreed with me, or at least took the time to message me to show their disapproval.

I have been doing the "right" thing up to now. I have messaged everyone back - both those who supported and disagreed with me. I also accepted all friend requests...until I realised that I was up to 87 friends (from about 20) and that there is a staggeringly low limit on XBox Live. Of course, my internet dropped too so this post is likely to be saved locally before posted at a later time.

I will post up the Monday Musing for others to enjoy - if it has been edited, two versions will be posted...I accept all feedback - good and bad. I will try to respond and, hopefully, can accept your friend request should it come to that (SabreO001 - frustratingly, Sabre0001 is gone...and I may have taken it by accident without realisation that all accounts were linked - what a n00b!).

Thanks to all who messaged me (again, good or bad), friend requested me, and invited me to parties or chat! Nice to know that people do read these things once in a while.
