World Called Cat Entropy
I've been thinking about changing the name of my site.
I got in to blogging through a friend. I work with Korova over at Mask of Anarchy and one day he let slip that he was running that blog. Naturally I asked him more about it - I've got this comicbook project I've been working on and was wondering if a blog might be a good place to try and generate some interest. If not then I thought I could start one up and just see what happens. I didn't feel that I had anything particularly interesting to say (Oh, how right I was!), but I'd been reading a few of the blogs that are around and it looked like it could be fun.
Korova was telling me how he enjoyed doing the blog and that I should give it a try ("Go on. Give it a go. Everyone else is doing it. You'll like it once you've started" - actually the more I think about it that could have been another conversation all together), so I did and was suddenly hooked.
When I was trying to come up with a name for the site I wanted something that sounded cool. To be honest I thought making a Shelley reference with Mask of Anarchy was too good and I was feeling competitive.
So what to go for? I'm addicted to music so I thought I'd go with a song reference and as I seem to be listening to an awful lot of Matt Good at the moment it seemed like an obvious choice.
My first thought was for 'Symbolistic White Walls' which, if you read the lyrics, seemed incredibly appropriate. Sadly that had gone, so I went for my next choice which is what you see at the top of this site, 'In a World Called Catastrophe' being another great song.
All well and good you may think but I can't help but feel a little paranoid. As soon as I had set up my blog Korova put a link on his site to mine, so there I am at the top of his list of blogs. Now, those of you who have been to his site know that it is very politically orientated. He's got opinions and all sorts going on over there and its well worth a read. However all of the other blogs he has listed are also very political and I reckon that I must be getting a lot of very confused readers coming over. After all 'World Called Catastrophe' even sounds like it's going to be a political blog, so imagine the disappointment on their little faces when they click that link and get me rambling on about sharks and scary welshmen.
The trouble is I'm quite attached to that title now, so I think I'll just let people carry on as normal, flicking between myself and Korova with slightly bemused expressions on their faces. Look at my site as somewhere to escape the stresses of all the arguments going on in those political type blogs. An oasis of... well, not calm exactly, but you get the idea. And if you are one of those people that has stumbled across here by accident, then you're welcome to stay. Feel free to leave a comment though- I'm intrigued to know what you make of this if you were looking for political articles to read!

well i think it is cool, i mean even I get depressed reading all the stuff i put in my blog. you need some relief....and there is nothing more relieving than a welshman sniffing pants in your bed!! Besides, I like an eclectic mix of fellow bloggers i link to. makes life interesting!!
Getting political for one moment, the title is certainly very apt for these times...oh no, here i go again....
There you go, it's official. If you need some relief come to my site.
Although that sounds a bit pervy. Thinking about it that won't attract the right crowd at all. I'll wind up with puzzled political types and extremely disappointed perverts all socialising together on my blog.
Then again they might just be the same people so I could be killing two birds with one stone. Pass the oranges.
Well, presumably the disappointed perverts are here already. Well, me (and formally you and the Ginge)
What do you mean 'Formally?'.
I'll have you know I still get disappointed...
