“Sleep is not my friend”

Uncategorized

Hi, If there was one underlying thread this week, I guess it would be tiredness. I don’t think it’s a lack of sleep per say, moreover, the lack of the right type of sleep. I never said I wasn’t a fussy so-and-so. 🙂 While my cat powers allow me to sleep pretty much anytime and anywhere, I guess a full night’s sleep without the audio terrorism by snoring’s causing would be helpful. 🙂 Maybe I should be going to bed earlier, but there is only so much time in the evening and I guess I’m guilty of burning the proverbial candle late into the midnight oil…. or something like that 😉 So, Chams this week and a party night at […]

“You gotta fight,
for your right,
to party”

Uncategorized

Hiya, It doesn’t seem long since I was last here, typing away into the Blogger interface. Well, actually, that’s not strictly true. Some afternoons have dragged by slower than a double dose of classroom based dullness. No matter how dry work may get, there is still the option to walk off (mostly), so that makes it unlike double maths on a Friday afternoon. Sleep has been a little hard to come by this week. I have a very minor cold, but as the evil so-and-so has lodged itself at the back of my throat, I am now able to snore for England. That makes is less than conducive for a good night’s kip for me, or the Ever Lovely Mrs […]

“No Time, Never Got a Thing to Wear”

Uncategorized

Hi, While we’re not out of winter just yet, the lighter mornings are enjoyable. A touch bracing perhaps, but it’s light, yay! Lots of folk seems to be enjoying the brighter evenings, but personally, I like it dark around 6ish. I dunno, for me at least, there’s something a little bit magical about the night. Sure, summer’s fun, but dark night holds something else that a warm summer evening doesn’t. Still, that’s one of the good things about living in a temperate climate, we have seasons. Okay, a lot of rain, but seasons none-the-less. 🙂 It was Chams the other night and although we had nothing special planned it turned out to be a packed evening. A few new faces […]

“I’ll rip it up to shreds and let it go.”

Uncategorized

Hi, How was Christmas? I hope it went well and if you were with family, that it wasn’t too much of a trauma. 🙂 Things went well here and the planning over early Xmas shopping – not to mention the speedy wrapping – all paid off. The Ever Lovely Mrs Jones did rather well, by her own admission, not mine. Wee Man was all made up over the amount of Lego he got and Little Miss? She was happy playing with her toys too. Throw grandparents into the mix and a good meal and really, I think we did pretty well. On the present front, Mrs J surprised me with some early gifts. “You’ll have to open these on Xmas […]

“You can fight the sleep but not the dream”

Uncategorized

Hi everyone, This evening I’m unusually tired and for that reason, and hopefully that alone, I’m a little out of it at the mo. With luck, a good night’s kip will set me right. But, it is Friday and Friday night is blogging night. I suppose in some odd way, I have my own personal deadline and if I break it, I wonder if I’ll get out of the habit of regular writing. Well, lets see where this week’s stream of consciousness takes us then eh? 🙂 Health – or perhaps more accurately, head-wise – I’ve been pretty good. I think the malaise over the last day or so is just tiredness. Nothing to panic about and really, would panicking […]

The first post isn’t the deepest

Uncategorized

So this is it eh? Welcome to the blogosphere. The giant swirling hive mind of the Internet. Pushing memes and new paradims through the datasea… Or, just a load of old tosh that’s randomly updated by people who should know better. :)Well, the jury is out on that one I’m sure. So, welcome to my little spot of the t’interweb – soon to be filled with occasional guff and nonsense. I’ll be straight with you (heh – straight*) I’m curious as to how long I can keep this blog thing going. Will it disappear by the end of the year or take longer than that? Hmmm… we’ll see. [ * note to self, don’t laugh at your own jokes – […]
