Thanks to whoever sponsored me back into existence

Jeckyl and Hyde.

That's he only way to describe the night that I have just had. It started off great - really chilled out seeing four great local bands in an ancient church. Cold, but atmospheric.

And then....

The walk onto a bar after the gig changed everything. This is kinda like Lost Season 4 changing everything. I was wih two friends and a large...

Ha!

No, nothing really. This week has been all about sports and money. Spending money I don't have watching sports that I care about. In the end, the team I love (Man Utd) got through to the European Cup final and won their league match to gain the advantage....and my local team got relegated to a league they've never been in during their 120 year...

ultimately, cheese happens....and I curdle at the thought it may not.
it's like this - all is fine in love, war and work.
cool?
right?
yeah?
sorta?
ok....what's up?
not much.
it's good.
better than most people have - ie. i got an incremental pay increase this month. next month i get 3.0% and in october i get another 3.5%. it's locked down and really...

i never blog anymore.....i don't know why. just have no urge, i guess. probably why i'm not even bothering to capitalise this shit. guess my heart ain't really in it and i'm showing no apparent conviction in conveying what i've done/thought/etc.

or maybe it's because nothing has really happened at all.

CLUE: The latter is VERY likely.

Yeah.....basically, I've been plugging away at the 9-2-5...

Why am I always sick with flu or something at the beginning of the year?
Oh well, maybe it is my crazy immune system saying that the Christmas holiday just wasn't long enough. Stupid immune system - get the fuck over it, you're a slave now.....live with it, deal with it.

So, what's happened this week? Nothing really....I've (perhaps) stupidly agreed to do a stand...

Woah....Happy New Year!!!!

It's been a long, long, long time.
No excuses, just a short sharp explanation in that it's been a tough time - mentally, emotionally, physically etc. Yadda, Yadda. I've been ill, but not really ill - according to my colleaguea. Yeah, fuck you.
I've been there or thereabouts and been comprehensive in my actions, but not really been motivated in my actions,...

I do still exist, honest!!!
I've just been taking things VERY easy recently - doctors orders etc. And, you know, it's pretty much worked. Back on track in all aspects of my life and enjoying things a whole lot more as a result. I've cut out all of the things (ie. one person mainly!) from my life that were contributing to the shit side of...

Lazy, lazy, lazy.....that's me.
I've just not been using my computer that much at home and have spent time doing other things that require a more relaxed seating position, like, erm, reading a book, er, watching TV....yeah, that kind of thing. Doctors orders and all that!!!

So, weekends are more likely to be my "heavy" computer use days rather than weekdays until I get my...

It's been a while, but it's been an odd couple of weeks.
A couple of Friday's ago I went to the doctor complaining that I was always excessively tired despite getting good sleep. I put it down to having a cold and tonsilitis just after I got back from holiday and it had never really gone.

Well, I was kind of right. I had a...

I really should get my ass in gear with these updates - that said, I've been very busy with work. I won't bore anyone with the details other than I get there early and leave late most evenings at the moment...but it just means extra days holiday, so that's not too bad I guess!

The weekend was a bit messy....no, not that kind of messy...
