I managed to rip my favourite pair of trousers on the back of my bicycle pedal (lol, I wrote peddle) a couple of weeks ago, so much so that they only thing they’ll be good for now is turning into scruffy lounge-about-the-house shorts. I went to buy a new pair yesterday, but the closest match […]

Too Much Stress
I think I had a panic attack on the way home from work today. I’ve never felt anything like it in my entire life. I couldn’t breathe, and the harder I tried the worse it became. I had an overwhelming urge to cry but nothing came out. It was as if I was going to […]
All I Want For Christmas
…is my health. My health, damnit! I’ve been holed up in bed pretty much non-stop since Saturday because somebody infected me with a bloody cold. What is it with the stream of shit I’ve been hit with this past week or so? Food poisoning (or stomach bug, whatever), then my period [shudder] and now this. […]
Killing Myself Slowly
Guess which lucky person has managed to give themselves food poisoning? I don’t know how, because I’m so ridiculously anal about raw meats and things, but last night I was mightily sick. I’d been sat on the sofa all evening since tea (dinner) — which contained the deadly chicken thigh — playing Zelda. Not a […]
Growing out of McDonalds
As a kid I always loved McDonald’s. Didn’t get the opportunity to go very often because Mum generally refused to let us eat “that shit” but when I was invited to a birthday party there, or something like that.. you bet I’d scoff that food down. As a student, due to the locality of the […]
9lbs and an AMD Athlon 64 X2
Things have been a little slow lately because I had last week off work. Actually, that’s a lame excuse, you’d think that’d make me blog more… Anyway, apart from being told I’m short-sighted last week we also had an incident with the car (Karl explains it better), I had a ‘successful’ doctors appointment in which […]
Those follow your eyebrows dear!
It’s been around 14 years since my last eye test and after much “umm”ing and “ahh”ing, Karl and I decided it was probably about time I got off my lazy arse and went to the opticians. I figured that working and playing with computers for up to 14 hours a day probably hasn’t done them […]
AARRRGGGHHH
I am an in such a fucking foul mood this evening. So many stupid things… I spent part of this afternoon re-doing work that I spent almost three hours yesterday polishing off (don’t ask). My face broke out in spots down one side last weekend and they won’t piss off. I look fifteen again. I […]
Walking Malarkey
So, as the doctor prescribed I’ve been taking a brisk walk every day. Except, I have a confession… I’ve discovered that I am that bloody unfit that I am struggling to keep it brisk for over 5 minutes, let alone 15. I can only try and guess at how the hell I used to do […]
Doctor, Doctor!
My 18-monthly depo checkup/3-monthly jab was this morning. I was particularly looking forward to this after the doctor had to Google the procedure and the nurse left my arse exposed to the world last time. Fortunately this doctor — although obviously new — was more clued up than the last guy. He started asking me […]
