New Look, well, old look revisited

Hair short again, new specs (purple) … overweight!

The glasses are a freebie from Vision Express as I am still waiting, over a month later, for the ones I ordered!

I stopped taken the anti depression meds. I did feel some improvement with them but, I don’t much want to lose every morning and there was an issue they caused which I also didn’t much approve of. I have counselling soon anyway so let’s see what that does.

OMG! I am going to Download in June …. Muse, Hollywood Undead and loads of other bands you’ve probably never heard of but, even if it is raining and cold, how awesome is that! My first ever festival … OK, so no camping and getting drunk but, maybe next year though, they’d have to go some to top Muse.

Leonard Nimoy died (84), how sad. True, he couldn’t sing to save his life, his acting was exactly amazing but, he was Spock.

I so couldn’t resist this baby. Sure, I’m broke but, all the same, part of my getting well is getting things sorted that I need sorted. My current PC is good but, as the main household unit there were some failings and that isn’t acceptable.

It’s Official …. I am definitely considering the possibility of maybe moving on with some aspects of my life, we shall see, watch this space.

Was lovely to see Pete the other day and Chris, so glad he’s feeling better. Good also to have the occasional text from those I didn’t really pay much attention to but who’ve made a real effort to stay in touch with me since I left Facebook. I am still not really considering singing in again any time soon.

Looks like Northampton Borough Council might actually be getting their act in gear and sorting out my benefit claim on Monday … I won’t be holding my breath waiting though.

The Navigation thing in my car is playing up, trying to convince me I am using non Nissan software! Went into Nissan and they told me if I fork out £180 or so for new software it ‘might’ solve it. I told them to jog on!

Seems as though Robin may be getting his car within a couple of weeks too! It’s all happening now.

Budget Day

So, we have the ‘Let’s buy a whole host of gullible voters day’ with George Osborne. No doubt we’ll be told how employment is rising, how the deficit is falling, how we’re all so much better off now than we were (compared to what?). We’ll be told that there are still tough times ahead but that only a Conservative government can steer us through them. It will be pointed out how inflation remains low, how not raising duty on fuel has helped everyone as is seen by the current lower prices at the pumps (it’s going up again George). In short, I should listen to this budget later and decide to vote Conservative in May but, I won’t. Labour certainly did nothing to avoid the mess the country got in but they didn’t cause it. They made the mistake of trying to be too conservative, allowing high finance the freedom to cause a catastrophic cock up for which they took zero responsibility. They made the mistake of allowing Gordon Brown to take the job of Prime Minister, one for which he is totally...

Not a good day

Today is a very emotional one for me. I have no idea why that would be the case but apparently it is. For a day that had nothing pre-arranged this one has turned out quite busy. First, I agreed to take Matt for breakfast though I wasn't really hungry. He was being quite argumentative in the morning about some thing or other, I don't recall what exactly but some matter of politics where he was going to argue the toss whilst knowing little or nothing about it. But, even so, I was quite upbeat as Jermaine had gone to school on time ... no, scrub that, i was upbeat until I yet again had to tell Zoey to get her arse out of her room, downstairs, do her chores and get to school, that is when this day started to go downward. I spent way too much money on a new doorbell, true, we needed one but not one that cost nearly £50! This too has not helped. I went to see a garage that can fit parking sensors to my car, all well and good but they needed me to supply paint to match the circles up ...

Understanding the British

As a nation we are a funny lot. We get through the worries of life with humour. Not always good taste humour and the words 'too soon' are often mentioned! Now, this is not unique to us, many other countries adopt humour to get them through. I am going to show some ideas of humour here, don't shoot me, we're just musing this topic. Moment of silence for the people who agreed to live with shitty roommates because they "wouldn't be spending much time at home anyway" There is going to be a lot of pressure over the next few days to talk to friends and family. Fight it. Stay positive Anyway, you get the picture. Actually, most of those came from the USA. It's terribly British for one person to cough and a whole host of others stare and one person shouts, 'we're all dead now, he's got the virus'. Obviously it's not a joking matter but, without keeping our sense of the ridiculous we would go quite potty. Estimates c...
