Birthday Daytime
I have already done an FTBD post about it being my birthday, but what the hell. This is my self-indulgent personal blog, and surely this is a great day to write self-indulgent, personal dribble. So, I am now 26, which means I’m… perhaps clinging on to my mid-twenties by a flattened tiny hair, but it could go either way. Certainly, another year and I’ll have to admit to being...

What It Means To Have A Birthday →
Sorry, folks. Once again, this site is getting a little beaten down by the stress and strife that is my “real life” schedule. Well, to be more precise, my illness over the past weekend. I usually…

They Eat Leprechauns, Don’t They? →
This time, it’s St Patrick’s Day, a chance to celebrate all things Irish. Which, in practise, usually seems to mean, um, green-ness. And leprechauns. And drinking. Unfortunately, I’ve covered …

None Of My Busyness →
So, last week I moaned about how busy I am and how annoying it was. I did briefly consider whether posting this entry was a barely-concealed insult to all the people I was meant to be socialising…

Bargain Control →
Last weekend, the US branch of Amazon suffered a technical glitch. A huge selection of comics (or “graphic novels” if you think you’re too grown up for “comics”) were offered at hugely reduced…

Fad-Jumping - 100 Days Vs Camera
This morning, whilst reading Twitter, I saw a tweet by Josie Long mentioning the recent end of the One Hundred Days To Make Me A Better Person malarkey. I was vaguely aware of this before, in fact I know someone else who was doing it, but a connection sparked in my brain this morning. As you’ve probably noticed if you’ve been reading this lovingly crafted blog at all, I have been...

Busyness Is As Busyness Does →
Friends are like bus metaphors. You wait ages for one, then suddenly they pop up in all your writing at once, making you look like an unoriginal, cliché-peddling moron. Sorry, that was a tangent….

Mess And Messybility →
