I'm not sure how this post will go down with anyone that bothers to read this blog. But then I figure this blog is for me so really my care factor about offending anyone (especially on the internet) is virtually zero. I think I need to make sure though that I clarify my heading carefully. …
Insomnia is dumb
With such a profound title this post is destined for greatness clearly. It is April and I am feeling pretty groovy on the days where insomnia has not struck. I think insomnia sets out to make us WANT to fight it. So we lie there, in our beds, snuggled under the covers, wearing cosy pyjamas …
Books Ain’t Never Gonna Lose Their Shine
I'm a child of technology. Well a 30 something child of technology then. I have the usual spread - an iPad, a smart phone, a MacBook Pro etc etc. And I love to read. So it made logical sense to me when I'm travelling that having my books on my iPad is a good thing. …
The Allure of Mediocrity
Everyone should be mediocre in their lives at some point or other. It gives perspective and relevance to when our lives are spectacularly awesome or devastatingly horrible. Mediocre is an okay place to be but you have to be careful you don't unwittingly get stuck there. It's like the stealthy ninja of the behavioural addiction …
The Singularity Confliction
Being in a long term relationship (going on 15 years now) makes me think about what it would be like to be single. Pretty sure if I was single I would be wondering about what it would be like to be in a relationship. This is definitely a very typical human thing I think - …
Busier Than An Ant at a Picnic
It's been a little while since I posted here and I suppose that's what happens when your online life takes a back seat to real life happenings. I don't mind it when it does but I always have just a little itch to not let things happening in the online world slide past me for …
We Can’t All Be Judy
Judy rocks. She's a judge and she's smart and she won't fall for the whole pissing on her leg and telling her it's raining crap. She gets to judge people everyday but she doesn't do it blindly. She lets the people tell their stories, she listens to all the sides and she looks at evidence. …
Taking back the FREAKS
I think the word 'freak' needs a new and improved definition. It's such a versatile term - noun, adjective, verb - that it's usage has evolved over time to the point where all the negative connotations of it are becoming less and less. I like to think of the word 'freak' as a fond term …
Questions on an Insomniac’s Mind
These are of course very numerous in number and I shall be selective in my writings about what questions I want answers for. Things like - I see a pregnant woman and I think immediately "I know what she did." My brain's maturity astounds me sometimes. Followed promptly by "I wonder if the sex was …
“I can’t go to bed there is shit happening on the internet”
This phrase has sadly taken on a very literal meaning of late. The FBI has shut down Megaupload a fairly significant file sharing site that probably 95% of people who use the internet have probably accessed at one point or another. Now I don't know if the FBI has changed it's overall job description, perhaps …
