Almost a fortnight

No, nothing,  Can't write a line.

Is this depression?  I certainly hope not.

Been a week...

Perhaps writing about writer’s block will help.

I’m interested in a new play, audition just after the trip to New York, but I can’t write at the moment.

I can’t write.

Another week at work, then maybe…

My Tram Experience (not mine, someone else's)

Everyone else is doing it, why not me as well...



This is going to sound perverse, but I was quite heartened by the clip. Yes, ignorant know-nothing, probably had no school or discipline her whole life, mouthing off while other civilised people around her try to talk some sense. She just came off sounding like a head case, which is what all racists are when you think about it. That attituide was felt by 99% of the population 50 years ago, now' it's 1%, if that. 

And yes, it's that poor baby of hers I feel sorry for too.

No need to name and shame her, I suspect she's in a bad enough place as it is.  Besides, this clip will do all the work for us. 

Update - The Daily Mash have reported on it, so now the satirical correspondance is closed.

And there's a still a week left...


The rule number one of any blog is to update frequently.

The raison d’ĂȘtre, the key purpose, the mission statement of mine was to follow through previous lacklustre efforts.

I have failed.

Allow me to protest.

A new boiler has been put in, which broke a radiator.  In the bedroom.  Which won’t be replaced for two weeks.

Agh, said the wife.

A new TV has been bought, and now we have TiVo downstairs and the old cable box upstairs in the bedroom.

So we are cold at night, but at least we have TV.

Then we’ve been going through IVF, and are a week away from a pregnancy test.  Keep your fingers crossed.

I dropped out of the play I was going to be in, knowing I couldn’t give it my all.

And a couple of days ago, a month away from New York, and the day before the ATP Tennis Finals at the O2 (I’m not in it, just watching) my car has decided to break.

A few hundred pounds later, I might be able to get it back later today.

It’s been a long month...

A quick review of the Twilight films from someone who has never seen them...

Twilight - If a boy ignores you, and is rude to you, that means he likes you more than anything.

Twilight: New Moon - If this same boy causes, by his actions or inactions, you to end up physically injured requiring a trip to the hospital, it is your responsibility to cover for him, including lying to the authorities.

Twilight: Eclipse - if a different boy, who has the capability to rip out your throat, tells you he loves you but you tell him no, on six separate occasions, eventually you will give in and say yes.

Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 1 - Sex will kill you.  One time, any time.  Abortion is not an option, you must suffer always and give your own life regardless.

How far was I off?
