But it takes more than this to make sense of the day in OD
Looking at that picture, I’m not sure why people think I like reading… I’m knackered. I’m constantly knackered. I’m getting about 8 hours sleep a night and usually have a nap during the day, ...
In which the author breaks some art in OD
Yeah… One of the local art galleries was launching their new exhibition today. I went to have a look. As I did, I turned round and nudged the stand for one of the sculptures and it kinda fell...
Would you put day drinking under experience or special skills? in OD
I’m currently rewatching Jessica Jones season 1 before bingeing season 2. I love this show so very much. I suppose it is kinda obvious I would though. I’m a huge fan of noir books and films (...
You couldn’t make it up. No, really, you couldn’t in OD
You know how they said that satire died when Henry Kissinger won the Nobel Peace Prize? They may have been out a few decades. It’s truly dead now. The Sun, a paper I haven’t held in any reg...
Turn and face the strange in OD
(Oh, come on, like I wasn’t going to use the TARDIS for this one…) I’ve recently re-read my old entries and one of the things I’ve learned is that a variation of this question was asked a lot a...
*Insert witty title here* in OD
I did dye my hair on Saturday night. Here, from left to right, is me normally, me having gone blond and the end result: I think it turned out OK. I took part in the Reddit Gifts book exch...
Oscar predictions in OD
(That’s my nephew Oscar. It fits the theme. That’s my niece Tamara in the picture as well.) I didn’t get to watch every film I wanted to, so here’s my predictions for the categories where I h...
I’m not as clever as Mark Twain in OD
I watched I, Tonya last night. I actually kinda feel sorry for Tonya Harding after watching it. Only kinda, I doubt the film is that accurate. I’m dying my hair tomorrow. It’s going to be go...
Imagine the disturbance at the time of the occurrence in OD
I may love snow, doesn’t mean I can’t have fun with it at the same time. Meanwhile, in Geordieland: I’ve finally watched all the nominees for the Best Picture Oscar this year. Here’s my cap...
If we all hold hands and very quietly shout in OD
I really don’t know what inspired me to post this song… Because I’m nothing if not a bandwagon jumper, here’s my answers to the housing survey doing the rounds. And because I can’t stand shout...
I smell snow! in OD
(You know, I’ll never understand why people on Gilmore Girls made fun of Lorelai for saying she can smell snow. Not only is it possible to sense snow (I knew we were getting snow at the weekend...
*Bangs head off wall* in OD
This phone upgrade is going well. Depending on your definition of well, that is. Now, I could either get the phone sent to the flat or to my local EE shop. I got it sent to the shop. This is...
Brunchy Spoon in OD
Yes, I can explain my entry title. A couple of days ago, I decided to watch every film nominated for the Best Picture Oscar before the ceremony. Last night, I decided to extend that to every f...
Hold the phone! in OD
So, I’m not getting the phone I mentioned in the last entry. Got an email this morning saying it was out of stock, but they’d let me know when they had more. When I phoned about this, I was to...
On phones and letters in OD
Phones: My mum phoned me earlier on her mobile phone, which was a surprise. My mum never uses her mobile phone. I don’t mean that as in actually hardly ever but does on occasion. I mean as i...
I wanted to use one of these as the main picture, but it cut part of each out. So, you’ve got my Chandler collection instead. I did manage to get my leather jacket. Which is a surprise, c...
I’ll render services that you may reasonably require in OD
I finally have the money to pay for my subscription, which means I can finally post photos! The picture above is me outside the TARDIS before one of the advanced screenings of the Doctor Who Ch...
My diary is now fully restored, with notes, so I’m having fun reading my old entries. I stumbled across this story I wrote and thought it was too good not to share again. Sir Henry Fossingto...
The Rainmaker in OD
I’m rewatching Looper for the first time in ages. Damn, I love that film. I just wish Rian Johnson would stop wasting his time playing with Star Wars. I still can’t find the bulbs I need for ...
Don’t panic! in OD
I’m watching the weekly bun fight that is Prime Ministers Questions. As usual, our esteemed PM isn’t doing a particularly good job. My mums birthday present arrived yesterday. My new memory c...
And I love to live so pleasantly… *EDIT* in OD
My diary has finally been restored! Well, OK, it’s doing the multiple copies of entries thing and there’s no notes on my old entries, but I’m willing to wait and see if that changes before subm...
I’ve got to admit, it’s getting better in OD
I’m no longer feeling out of sync with myself. Whether or not I’ve ever been in sync with the rest of the world, however… I’ve finally got an appointment to get the results of my CT scan. I m...
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! in OD
The memory card for my phone is, to put it bluntly, fucked beyond fucked. My phone won’t recognise it, my tablet will but won’t let me write to it. I was able to copy everything on the memory ...
I’m feeling, I dunno. Discombobulated? Like I’m marching half a beat out of sync with myself, never mind the rest of the world. And, no, it’s not just because I’m watching the State of the Unio...
Straight Outta Titles in OD
So, it’s half one in the AM, I probably should be asleep. Instead, I’m watching The Defiant Ones. Biggest surprise so far? Dr Dre is a huge Nirvana fan. Speaking of music, it may surprise so...
