SHAG. Wake up at 6 am, finish live firing at 9 pm, clean weapons until 4 am, sleep from 5 am to 6 am.
There is this prefix called "meta", which seems to indicate self reference. For example, meta-ethics is philosophy of what-ethics-is (as opposed to what is ethical), meta-mathematics is the philosophy of what-mathematics-is, meta-humour is humour based on other humour sources...So I extrapolate that blogging about blogging about blogging is called meta-meta-blogging.
Interestingly, when you are meta-meta-blogging, you are also meta-blogging, since you are blogging about meta-blogging, which is blogging.
This leads me to conclude that when one says that he's blogging, he could really be doing an infinite number of things: blogging, meta-blogging, meta-meta-blogging... and (meta-)^infinity blogging.
Guess what I have been doing for the past 15 minutes. I have been meta-(meta-)^infinity blogging. Oops! I just meta-(meta-)^infinity+1 blogged! Oh no! Not again! Would Georg Cantor please tell me what I've been doing for the past 16 minutes?
