Life is good.
My role at work has changed for the next 6 months. I'm currently in charge of organising, facilitating and delivering training for the store. I love it. It's so far removed from what I was doing before & it has definitely allowed me to develop as a person.
I feel like I'm in a state of change at present. I'm getting more...

Ugh. Left it too long again. Been meaning to write an update for ages, but I'm always too busy or too tired to do it.
Last update was a brief one in March & before that it was a new year post! Sheesh.
To bring you up to speed:
We now live in Cambridgeshire & I work at my company's store in Cambridge itself. I'm...

We're finally back online after moving. I've been rinsing the 3G on my phone. Proper update soon as I'm about to leave for work.

Sorry to always comment on it, but SWEET MERCIFUL FUCK, your daughter is the cutest thing ever.

So here's me doing the accent challenge thing:
First video blog thing. Might do some others at some point. Who knows.
Currently off work for 2 weeks for a well deserved rest as it has been stupidly busy recently.
I finished my short story for the Blizzard annual competition. Fingers crossed - if I win I get to go to their headquarters and nab a...

Loving the necklace sir, I think there's a few people not too far from me that probably have the genuine article.
I must say I do like that profile pic sir, very distinguished.

So this morning, we were 7 weeks and a day to go and Pinklet noticed something that was a little cause for concern, possibly even an indicator of impending labour.
She rang the midwife & we took her in to the maternity unit we will be delivering at. Funny story - we'd just gone for the tour on Sunday, which they do every week to...

Hey, I don't think we've met, but I met Zoe a good few times and just wanted to send you all my best wishes 
(It's Gareth, not 100% sure she'll remember me but glad you're all doing well)

I've been a bit more creative lately. I've also decided that I can draw or write or whatever - just for the fun of it. I put so much pressure on myself for the creative stuff I do to be 'worth something' (not in a monetary sense,) that I sometimes get quite freaked out about it & get nervous, more often than not, leading to...

Glad to hear you're being creative mate. Loving the zombie. I know you've shown me that before. I get the same when drawing though. I compare myself to others and put too much pressure on myself to be at a certain level. Every now and then I just go nuts and draw some crazy shit to relax and have fun with it again.
ikaruga:
good to hear about the creativity, man...
doodling for doodling's sake is always annoying as hell for me, but then again, I can't draw for shit...

I'm not going to do a big roundup of the last year, mainly because my memory doesn't work like normal people's. I can remember stuff but have no sense of time associated with it. I could remember something and not know if it happened this year or the year before. Suffice to say it's been awesome and the last couple of years with Pinklet have...

I rejoined the site last night after a few months off and I suddenly thought about you and your better half this morning and thought "I wonder whether they're preggo yet?" and here you are all preggo and that, I bloody loves it!!
Congratulations to you both, I'm absolutely over-the-moon for you
Oh, and a belated Happy New Year too

Something like that, anyway. I often have to read back on blogs to separate one week or month to the next. I note things in my appointment diary to jog my memory too! Oops.
Sounds like 2011 will bring a whole new kettle of fish for ya anyway! I'm sure that'll help at least some remembrance, until the sleep dep. kicks in anyway...

I've been meaning to update for ages, but didn't really have much to say or else was wondering how I could top the last one. Well obviously I won't be able to for about 6 months, so fuck it, I figure just update and be damned.

I've been raising a kitten which I know is kinda (ok so very) different and the only advice I can give to you is be prepared for a lot of shit. Everywhere.
Good work on the impregnation by the way!

You're gonna have to explain to me about this scrivener you're talking about....because I'm too lazy to e-stalk you.
Holimoonaversary!
For those of you struggling with the concept, it was mine and Pinklet's first holiday together, which coincided with our first wedding anniversary and technically it was also our honeymoon as we couldn't afford to go last year after the wedding.
My best (wo)man and her hubby visited us a while back and suggested the south of France, as they were going around...

Hmm. Been mostly offline for a while - well I've been on Twitter (@narshada,) and Facebook via my iPhone but my Macbook Pro has been wigging out. Took it for a Genius bar appointment in town (I know, the irony eh,) as I'd tried everything I could think of & it wouldn't connect to Wi-Fi at home. My iPhone & PS3 will connect no problem,...

I love reading about the apps for the iphone in your blogs. my dad gave me his old iphone (3G). Its unlocked - so I can stick my sim card in. Sadly disappointed that I can't have my own text tones (that honk is annoying.. argh) - but I now know how to make them should I ever jailbreak my phone - but that idea scares me. don't want it to fuck up after only having it 3 days.
However, the first thing I thought when i got the iphone was 'i need to re read all of mike's blogs so i can get the good apps!!!'
So here I am, stalking your blogs.
