This used to come easy to me..

This one's for you Dave. And anyone else who has recently referred to my distinct lack of blogness. Which at a very basic count would have to include Matt and Teh Dadhead.

I'd better clear the air before launching into anything serious. It's important to self-reference early on I feel. And plus I know you all be thinking a million different wrong things about why I int blogged recently. So here's the skinny.

Incorrect or wrong reasons for lack of bloggage:
1. Growing up and all responsibble now I am about to have a nipper.
2. Now actually have a life.
3. No longer a geek (pretty much the same reason as #2 but hey ho)
4. Blogger.com blocked at work
5. In a huff about lack of people submitting quotes.
6. Nothing interesting to say anymore (the more astute amongst you will realise immediately why this couldn't possibly be the reason).
7. Fallen in love (married people don't do this)
8. Fingers have fallen off.
9. No internet connection (what is this, the dark ages?!?)
10. CJD

I will do you all a favour and dispel the myths once and for all..

Correct or right reasons for lack of bloggage:
1. I go through phases

That's pretty much it.

Sorry.

Anyway. Here's a bunch of undeveloped thoughts that should really be expanded upon for you but won't be because I'm already stupidly tired and in need of going to bed.

• I'm unconvinced that as human beings we are able to know objective truth. That's not to say that I don't believe there is such a thing as objective truth, nor actually that we are unable to know objective truth actually. Just that we can't objectively know that we know objective truth. We are subjective beings and that is our limit.


• Having a baby isn't as scary as people would have you believe. Or at least, the run-up to it isn't as scary as people (apparently) would like it to be.


• Losing your hearing is bullsh*t - on any level.


• Having a new boiler goes down like a genius.

I have a sneaky suspicion there was more for that list, but I really have run out of steam.

It's been nice to have this little catchup with you all. I hope you're as glad about the return as I am. Don't forget, you can ignore the real world all you want whilst you're living it up in La La Land, but at some point it's gonna jump and bite you on the arse..

I feel closer than I've ever been

Heylo my prittys.

Sorry to harp on again, but it does really grill my cheese when people assume the worst of situations before they really should. Honest to god.

But what kind of life to lead that you're so concerned about a situation you assume is going to happen that you feel the need to let everyone else know through passive-agressive posting of news articles and such?

It's not healthy.

This is how I can claim I'm not cynical I guess. I want to believe the best of people/situations. I may also observe bad things that do happen but I remain defiantly optimistic.

For all of you lovers of conundrums and puzzles, head over to the Network. He's been running a link competition for his last few posts and it's causing quite the stir.

I'm not sleeping at all well of late. This is a fairly teenage blog statement, I know. Wah wah wah. Last nite was just wisdom tooth pain, but it seems that most nites recently it's been blowing a freaking gale, then I get up in the morning and all seems calm and peaceful as if the nite's turmoil never happened. There's probably a good metaphor to be had there but my tired mindtank can't make the link.

Oh well.

overandout friends.
