…so tired today, and yesterday too. OK, yesterday’s tiredness was apparently caused by a bout of insommnia the night before. I stayed up late again last night, but only until midnight or so. But today I am still tired and lacking in energy. We went shopping today in Ayr – I wanted to look at […]

….feeling blahhh. Besides the usual (headache, stiffness, nagging bladder) I felt low and depressed. This was probably to do with something I’d talked about with a friend last night, an ongoing situation that gets me down sometimes. But, it’s my problem, I’ve lived with it for long enough. It’s not that serious. It just gets […]
…that cannabis – especially when combined with a shedload of other pharmaceuticals – can be bad for you comes in the no-longer-chubby form of David Shayler. The ex-MI5 whistleblower appears to be shapeshifting into the new David Icke.
……pinned up in in the local Post Office this morning: FOR SALE Mountain Bike. Used once, 6 months old; Elliptical Exercise Bike, 6 months old; Magnetic Exercise Bike, 6 months old; Phone XXXXXXX Somewhere, I hear the tinkling sound of broken New Year resolutions…….
…from the annual Oakleaf Camp. And still dead tired, despite having nine hours solid sleep. But it was mostly fun. What I didn’t like: The unending drumming. If anybody wondered why I never appeared at the fire, that was the reason – I don’t like having to listen to hours of mindless skin-thrashing. Even away […]

I’m going to be selling some of my greeting cards, and I’ve just printed off and laminated some rather snazzy business cards for myself. I’ve decided to […]
I joined Second Life for about three weeks ago. I’ve not been there all that much – it’s terrifically time-wasting. However, from my POV as an Aspergers person, it is proving quite an interesting experience. For me, being on Second Life has many parallels with my RL experiences. Notably, it is impossible to tell what […]
The Slacktavist is one of my favourite US bloggers. Besides doing a sharp and often hilarious weekly takedown of the excreably-written – yet unfathomably popular – Left Behind books, he often comes up with gems like this: Early next month, 425 Wal-Mart stores nationwide will begin carrying faith-based toys from One2believe that target parents who […]
For the time being, I’ve got very little computering work to do. I have been thinking about a big new project, but it’s still in the “thinking about it” stage. So I’m faffing with yet another new design for the Oakleaf Circle site. The Oakleaf Camp is the weekend after next, and there’s going to […]
Since turning down the Elfin Diary job, we haven’t got a lot of money to spare. The bills are never-ending and now there’s never quite enough to go round. So, a couple of days ago, when B mildly suggested that it was time I bought myself a new dress, I shouted at him, which made […]
