People suck

28 May 2009 22:05 PM
I walked to and from work today and realised just how much I enjoy it. It takes me around an hour to walk door to door and that’s about the only hour I get to spend on my own. I enjoy time on my own because all the pain I have ever felt is a [...]

Evernote is great!

26 May 2009 18:05 PM
I love my iPhone but it would be like every other smart phone on the market if it were not for the applications that are available from the App store. Most of the applications that I download are purely fun; the Urinal Test is a great example of that, it really is nothing more than [...]

Fuck my life

25 May 2009 19:05 PM
We first met at a friends birthday party. The moment I arrived I noticed her from across the crowded room. She was wearing a black dress which contrasted nicely with her mousy blonde hair. We shared a few laughs that night but as it came to an end we went our separate ways. I didn’t [...]

Great expectations

19 May 2009 23:05 PM
When I was 3 or 4 my Mum started taking me to the supermarket for her weekly shop. I was of an age where I absolutely loved any excursion outside the house and I had little idea of what was required in a trip to the supermarket. It’s more than simply a matter of going [...]

To her door

18 May 2009 20:05 PM
I havent stopped shaking since I first got the call. “Mum’s not answering the phone”. Most people don’t give a second thought to that statement. They think I’ll call her mobile or she might be in the shower. But when you nearly lost your Mum 2 years earlier to a severe case of pneumonia, and [...]

Turning back the pages

17 May 2009 15:05 PM
What follows below is a something I wrote back in 2004.  It’s amazing how much things have changed since then. Every story has to begin somewhere.  Of course where it starts isn’t always where it begins; it’s only where the story teller chose to start it.  So I chose to start on a day like [...]

Popping an umbrella

15 May 2009 13:05 PM
We’ve all heard the slang term ‘pop a cap in his ass’ which loosely translates to ‘shoot someone’. It isn’t the most complex of slang terms to understand; cap – bullet, pop – shoot, ass – bottom; and in the right environment, it certainly gets the point across. For example, it  is far more effective [...]

Wanking, weakness and moments of clarity

13 May 2009 22:05 PM
For a few weeks when I was 22 I lost my will to live. I didn’t leave it at a mates house or on the train. And it wasn’t between the cushions of the couch, also known as the black hole where everything turns up, as yeah, that was the first place I looked. Not [...]

My Mum

10 May 2009 13:05 PM
Dear Mum, You have put up with a fair amount of shit in your life, some of it self inflicted, some of it inflicted on you by others and most of that inflicted by me, though through out it all you’ve managed to stay mostly positive and I thought today would be an appropriate time [...]

6 Beers of Separation

10 May 2009 12:05 PM
I stumbled across this site the other week on YouTube. Basically it follows four people as they try and track down (trap) their favourite celebrity. From the website; Can you corner a celebrity? We have four hosts who aim to find out. They’ll attempt to prove that you are never further than 6 degrees away [...]
