  The last couple of days I’ve been battling a bad virus. It’s one of those ones that sinks it’s claws in and hangs around for awhile. It really sucks. Youngest caught it first. She’s rarely sick but given that she just started Kindy I expected her to catch something. All my kids did when they…

  April 16, 2018

  Lordy I’m tired today. That’s due in part to several factors: Work, Family life and the neighbors adult son (who is a straight-up dodgy fucker who can’t resist the urge to engage in criminal behavior and therefore makes me nervy - last night he was sitting in a car out the front of our house…

  ... and counting until the next phase of life starts. 8 weeks of hard work. 8 weeks of learning. 8 weeks of studying and sleepless nights, exams and worry. I put my official resignation in at my current job today. This whole thing is a big step outside my daily routine, a huge change for…

  It's certainly been awhile and I have no idea if I still exist on anybody's lists but hey, never any harm in starting again really. I'm not really certain where I left off, I do know that I stopped believing that I had anything interesting to say so I stopped writing. A pity really... I…

  I just took a bite into my apple and realized I just gnawed off half the sticker. It was very rubbery and kinda chewy. Obviously I was sitting in the middle of oblivion and paying no attention to things like apple stickers. Cravings suck. I'm not gonna lie, they absolutely reek. It's no help when...

  Mario pushed me to that point where my body was screaming from within. Every muscle feels so fatigued that lying like a lumpfish is just about all I'm capeable of. I came home and slept for about 5 hours... does that tell you anything? I cannot move my arms beyond keyboard level BECAUSE I'm almos...
