Ani Moller: Absent Blogger
20 September 2007I think it is quite obvious that I have seemingly fallen out of love with the internet, and in particular, this ‘ere website. The very one I have lovingly (and sometimes angrily) crafted from nothing more than words and web software I don’t like very much over the past seven years. I’ve lost a lot of motivation for writing over the past few years, which is probably because I haven’t redesigned my website in years, because everyone knows you will stop doing anything that becomes monotonous and uninteresting. Because I do actually want to keep writing, I have wondrous and grand ideas of pulling everything down to bare bones, installing a new CMS, and completely starting again. I want a photography portfolio, and something pretty and new to present my musings on life in. Instead, I think, “Damn, importing all those entries into the database is going to suck!” and, “I really don’t have time for this!”
What I am really saying is that I am excellent at procrastinating. What I am also saying is that my life has also been extraordinarily busy. Since my last update I have:
- Spent four weekend in Auckland visiting my amazing boyfriend Duncan
- Went to the most amazing drum and bass gig ever: Drumz 2007 with Marcus Intalex and Doc Scott
- Spent eight days in Tonga fighting rabid dogs and falling coconuts
- Started learning to become a super awesome drum and bass DJ
- Become obsessed with the Shortland Street serial killer
- Discovered Facebook
To be honest, I’m not sure what the conclusion of this post is – I’m not going to profess to write more, and I’m not even going to promise to do the things I said I want to do in the first paragraph. But it’d be nice if I did.

Oh oh! Matching (sort of) blog posts… What have we become?!?
Thanks. Now I’m Googling “Shortland Street serial killer” and have found a way to waste more time.
Since you and Duncan are writing similar posts, perhaps a joint non-blogging venture is in order?
:)
Y’know, it’s funny how your thoughts echo my own. I kind of turned my blog into a 90’s Aussie pop-culture nostalgia Google AdWords vacuum devoid of any updates a couple of years ago.
Maybe if we combined our powers with two other likewise-thinking folks, we’d have one fully functional blog.
I am so excited you have updated! I miss Shortland Street so much. Some dude off Coro is apparently on it, I saw he had been arrested in Auckland for shoplifting.
I miss you more than SS though xx
