Month: July 2010

Hey, There. I’ve cracked the ice. The empty white background that’s the backdrop of the Blogger window. Now I feel galvanised into action, the breakage freeing my mind to actually do something. Something. Anything. For a bloke who can talk until the cows come home, there are times when words don’t come so easily. That’s why the quote: almost high brow compared to my usual pop-scene. 😛 Is that how blogs end, they slow up and eventually stop? Anyways, for the last ten minutes, I’ve sat; staring into space or studying the fact that my keyboard could do with a clean. So it goes sometimes. I so didn’t want this to be another post about darkness or shadows (Ed: any […]

Hey all, There are times when I feel I’ve got plenty I want to say, but I’m not quite sure how to start. Maybe it’s procrastination, or that the thoughts flutter around my head so quickly, I can’t quite decide which one I should try and grasp first. Okay… deep breath and focus 🙂 This week’s been good. I’ve been for a check up and despite the dip from last time, the mood sine wave – as the doctor said – seems to be settling to something all the more typical. Less dips, which I think can only be a good thing. Let’s hope the tablets keep things on the straight and narrow. The drop in the the searing summer […]

Hi, How’s things with you? Stuff here is… is better than it was. The earlier part of the week was not so good. Oh arse. I was hoping not to write about this type of stuff because it’s all rather negative isn’t it. Rough with the smooth I suppose. 🙂 I think that’s the difficulty with a blog. Okay, they say ‘write about what you know’, or in my case, perhaps what’s going on on Planet Jones. I guess the down side of that is that when it gets rather personal and heavy going, it doesn’t really make for fun reading. But equally, life isn’t all smiles and happy stuff. Some days things don’t go so well and you just […]

Hiya, Let’s start with some good news eh? I’m feeling much better than I did a few weeks ago. I guess, and unlike the song, the drugs do work. 😉 The doctor did warn me that there may be a little dip, due to chemistry, about mid week and I think I’ve hit that yet kept on trucking. Good times. I suppose the cliche is ‘coming out from under a cloud’ and while I know a little about coming out (Ed: groan), for me, once the tablets had kicked in, it was more that I woke up. It was quite startling. I mean, just walking through the supermarket, my memory of what we needed to buy was there; I took […]

Hi, Today has been one of those odd days. Not in a bad way, instead the beginning of something good. Don’t worry, it’s nothing major or life threatening – thankfully. There isn’t an easy way to put this and I’ve spent a while wondering how to put this in words. Hell, I had the same problem when I went to see the doctor. Let’s just dive in eh? Depression. There’s a word that’s both easily banded about and, if the language experts are to be believed, overused too. So over the last 2 years or so, I’ve been okay. I’ve had a few blips – doesn’t everyone? – and I put those down to being tired, stressed from work, not […]
