Anger.

In Blogging, General Banter on 4 April 2008 tagged Blogging, Computer pain, WordPress with no comments

I just typed out a really long blog post, and WordPress lost the whole thing. It was probably my fault, but still, I want to smack a hole in my computer right now.
Maybe this is why I haven’t been blogging so much! Damn you technology!
Until I can be bothered to write something else in this [...]

Understatement

I totally need to blog more often. This is beyond a joke.

This is Kev. He cost five quid, although I think he’s worth at least eight.
Good PHPWM meeting last night! Darren Beale did a great talk on the Symfony [...]

I slept through the Great British Earthquake this time, and I am really quite glad I did. That last one nearly made me pee my pants.

Whenever you need me I’ll be there

It’s Saturday. The sun is out. We are going to buy some nice glasses for my wife, and a number of other tasks. It’s a nice day, which is nice.
I need to get a compact camera because my old one is old and broken, and while I love my SLR, I don’t take it everywhere [...]

Alien Invasion

In General Banter on 19 January 2008 tagged aliens, dreams, germs, sleep with no comments

We just watched ‘War of the Worlds’ (The Tom Cruise version), and now it’s 1:16am, and we’re going to bed.
I hope I don’t dream about tripods. Tripods that kill you dead.
No, I will dream about nice things. Nice safe, non-deadly, un-alien, friendly nice things. Deal.
Although if they do show up, we both still have colds. [...]

I went to Tunisia with my wife, we went, then a little while later, we came back
I went to Alton Towers theme park, with my wife, in the rain. We went, got wet, had some fun, and a little while later, we came back
I read Sex [...]

It’s the weekend.
Make it a good one, people! Rest, laugh, go to church, enjoy God, enjoy each other, and watch less t.v. Eat well too, healthy like, right?
I have lots of things to do, many many things. You wouldn’t even believe it. Actually it’s probably not as bad as that, but I do have a [...]
