Offspring
Occasionally I like to revisit the bands of my youth. This the Offspring and for some reason their songs have been stuck in my head for the last couple of days. This was always one that amused me...
Follow up from previous excitement
Ok, before I get going on the whole "Holy frak I FINALLY have my Doctor Who cosplay coat", time for a brief point on the subject of stupidity. Now I accept that some people are smarter then othe...
It's here!
Pics to follow when I get home from work!
One week in.
Well, it's been a week since I started my detox diet. No alcohol, no caffeine, fresh fruit and veg every day. Practical update: Still tired. I look a little less soft around the midriff. Maybe. ...
Making the inanimate real...
When I was younger I had a pendant of ultimate power. It was a cheap little battle axe pendant I bought for about a quid from the saturday market in Penrith. It was sort of a joke to myself that ...
Self improvement is hard...
But I'm doing well. Bought myself a new hoodie on saturday and I DIDN'T EVEN NEED ONE! Oh my god, you are thinking, this man is crazy. I also decided to do a detox which is a bit more important ...
Trying to explain the truths
How do you tell the people in your life that they annoy the fuck out of you? Trying to explain it to them in a logical and coherent manner doesn't seem to work as well as we'd like. Simply put, ...
Here I am stuck in the middle...
...with... oh wait. Me. I am in a really bad mood. I shouldn't be. It's been a good day. I've been to see the new X-men movie, been for a walk, went for a drive and I'm making myself a curry for...
So... much... work
Sorry for not writing a lot, Diary. I'm totally burned out and my creative juices have dried up like a... thing... that dries... up.... badly. The reason for this is the VAST amount of work I'm ...
'sup
Got that friday feeling? Nah, me neither. 6 day week this week. So much training to do! Keeps the bills paid I suppose, I'm certainly not complaining. So, what's happening in the life of Adam. W...
A-Z survey
In absence of a real entry, have a survey. A - Age: 32 B - Bed size: Queen sized, I think. I’d love a proper king sized one but there doesn’t seem much point in the current flat. Oh, incidental...
Freezing... monday morning...
She is waiting for her train to come! Nope, that was Divine Comedy. Technically, it's neither freezing; monday; or indeed morning. It's actually a fairly balmy tuesday afternoon and I write thi...
House... so... clean....
It was lovely last night. Got home, dropped stuff off with Miss Bath. Relaxed. I didn't get the bathroom done. Bad Adam. Just could not be bothered. Instead I watched "Addams family" on Netflix....
Not feeling hot part 2
So, after my last entry you were probably wondering if I died. Yes. Yes, I did. Seriously, though, still feeling a bit poorly. It’s annoying. Eventually decided to go home on friday as was just ...
Not feeling hot
Woke up at bleurgh o'clock feeing, well, bleurgh. I'm not a big fan of sleeping in anyways these days. Sleep is the enemy, trying to stop me being productive. It's a bit annoying, however, to be...
Iiiiiiiit's quiz time!
What is your name? Adam. Or Ado. Or Ad. Or Aaaaaaaaa. What is your age? I’m 32. Physically. Mentally I switch between 8; 21; and 87. Single, Married, Hooking up? I think I count it as “Hooking ...
It tells me things about me, way down deep inside
Haven't listened to this in forever. I wish I could write like this. This is possibly the worst set of lyrics Neil Gaiman ever put together. It's still better than anything I have ever written a...
The Weekend
Is a range of days occurring on a weekly basis, usually typified as "Saturday" and "Sunday". This can also include a "long weekend" which may stretch to include "Friday" and/ or "Monday". And no...
Tired.
Gah, new interface! This is bizarre. I'm a sleepy Adam this morning. Had a bout of insomnia last night (first for a while) so just caught up on some reading till the sandman took me. It has left...
Hello Monday
Just a week till we start rolling out the new training. It’s gonna be good. I really do think they’ve brought a lot of stuff in line officially that I’ve been training out for years but has never...
Poem time
Sometimes my poems are complex with a lot of sub-text. Sometimes they're simple. Sometimes, like this one, the concept is simple but the underlying emotion feels very complex. I'm a complicated ...
People often ask me...
"What's your job like?" I say often. It's happened. Quite recently, hence the entry. My job is a lot like teaching except the material changes on an almost daily basis and by the time I've taugh...
Quiz
I pilfered this off Loki. The Prosebox Loki. Not the Norse God of mischief. Although they could be both for all I know. Anyways, thanks to them for posting the quiz so that I can steal it. whats...
I nearly died.
Ok, that's an overly dramatic title. What happened was I opened up my Macbook Pro and an enormous dog face appeared on the screen and uttered one word: "Zoooooooooooooooool". Apparently I left...
Some days are harder than others
Title pretty much says it all. Today has been hard. Sometimes I really don't know what I'm doing or why. If that sounds pathetic, don't worry, you're not in bad company thinking thus. I do. I j...
Book Description
Note: This diary is a continuation of the diary I started on the 3rd of October 2001, on Opendiary. I may even get to collating the entries from my olders stuff on here at some point. It’s also still under construction so it may be a little rough around the edges at first.
Disclaimer: The contents of this diary do not reflect the opinions or thoughts of anyone really, including the author. He generally just writes whatever comes to mind.
It’s a gift.
On the other hand, some of the things he writes he spends far too long reviewing and trying to make it work. This is usually poetry. Some of it’s ok, if you like the sort of thing.
In addition, if you happen to live in Tyne and Wear, and are interested in Live Action Roleplay check out this site. I made it so you know it’s gonna be good. Eventually.
Finally, if you take offence at any of the content of this diary, we will come round your house and murder an adorable kitten in front of you. So please don’t take offence. We can’t afford the kittens.
