Bowie is King of the World
Bit of a nothing day, but I feel quite relaxed. I was thinking about David Bowie earlier—I realised, of all the older music I like,… Read More »Bowie is King of the World
Lethargy
Monday was a fairly lethargic day. Batteries are recharging slowly. My insomnia hasn’t improved much, by the way. 🙂
Clearing My Head
I took the dog for a walk earlier, to get some fresh air and clear my head. It worked and didn’t work at the same… Read More »Clearing My Head
Reflections
I’m going through a period of reflection at the moment. I still feel strange. I can’t turn my feelings on and off at will.
Many thanks to those who have e-mailed me today. Knowing a few people care and understand makes this a little easier—there are always doubts and fears around such a difficult decision. Contact with others makes me feel less alone in this.

It’s Over
I have left the person I’ve recently been involved with. I had already said this might be for the best, and that this coming weekend should be our goodbye. But following a tense exchange, I decided to put an end to it before more damage was done.

Taking Control
Still I find myself contemplating the meaning of life, but in some respects this has taken a more positive direction.
I am, in general, feeling considerably more determined to make my life more ordered and less stressful. I don’t have a full set of answers right now, but I’m lucky to be finding writing—both the stuff I complete and numerous scraps I fiddle with and toss aside—increasingly cathartic again.

Well, hasn’t been much to say lately. Just the usual stuff—contemplating the meaning of life, etc. I have been writing bits of stuff on and off, some of which has been productive, some of which has not.

Being Positive
Okay, first entry of the New Year! But not much to say, really, except I hope everyone is recovering from the holiday period nicely—the even greater than usual degree of inactivity has left me personally feeling more lethargic than usual! But I’m generally feeling positive and geared toward doing more constructive things.

Christmas Cheer?
Well, parents just went to bed a short while ago. Before this, around 3:00am, mom decided to hand me my card and present since we were all up late and it was basically Xmas Day anyway. As I suspected, I got a mobile phone.
Fiddling around with my new toy, I did manage to not watch the original 1931 Frankenstein movie, which is just about finished now. Fancied seeing it… been ages since I watched it. Oh well.

Spend Spend Spend
Not a bad day. Didn’t get up very early, but did drop into Dudley for a spot of retail therapy.
I bought myself a floppy, navy blue hat. And some gloves. Needed new gloves. Just thinking about the weather. So boring practical retail therapy at that!
