being bothered

oh blog. poor neglected blog. will you ever forgive me? i've been so busy doing nothing that you haven't even been on my 'to do' list. not that i have a 'to do' list but if i did you wouldn't have made the short list. sorry. i really am. what can i do to make it up to you? substitute my tv watching for some blogging? now that's a big ask. how about something less drastic? how about i just make more of an effort?

hyperhypo

it's that time of year again. and i don't mean spring or summer. i'm talking about the time of year when all the puny white boys parade around topless. i'm going to think up a name for it. how about the sunny strut? i'm sure i can think of something better. leave it with me while i try to eat a messy lunch without staining a new shirt. i know. how about parade of the topless puny white boys? or better still, the puny white boys topless parade? no. i didn't think so. its been a good few days since i started to write this and i still haven't come up with a name for it. i have decided though, to start a club. it's called HyperHypo and there are 2 members at the moment. me. and my friend who will remain anonymous. you see, we suffer from the same illness. she's hyper and i'm hypo. being hypo has it's advantages. no, actually, it doesn't. unless you class feeling tired and sleeping as good things. and being forgetful. and carrying more weight than your body should be able to carry. on that note i'm going to have a nap and recharge. until next time...

sinner

forgive me readers for i have not written in a while. it has been days since my last posting.
as i said in my first post. i am a thinker. and thinking is what i do best. if you could plug your usb memory stick into my brain and download all of this i could rest my tired fingers. or put them to good use in the biscuit tin. may be in a few years they'll develop something. isn't it amazing what they can do with technology these days?
now i'm getting stuck for words. what? how ridiculous! i think it's because i'm thinking too much about this. and mary berry is making a dessert on the food channel. i'm also easily distracted. did i mention that before?
so last night i went to vote for the new london mayor and london assembly etc. i parked right in front of the salvation army hall (are they still around?) and almost skipped my way to the front door. i have to confess that this is the first time i've voted in a long while. so as i get to the door i find myself walking towards the biggest rottweiler the world has ever seen. luckily it was facing the other way and didn't see me as my heart skipped a beat and i went into panic mode. there was a man holding it's lead and patting it's head but all i could think about was if this thing wanted to take a few chunks out of me - it was going to. so i was a brave girl. took a deep breath and walked straight past it into the hall. when i reached the table to register i could barely speak and i'm sure the lady thought i was having some kind of seizure. needless to say i took a long time to put my x's on the three ballot papers and slowly walked out praying that the dog had gone. and it had. so i made a run for the car and drove home at speed. did i tell you that i used to work with animals?
