I work in a bookshop, it is another of my many contradictions.
I see every book that comes into the shop, which is ace. Often, I'll see a book that will remind me of someone or I'll think "Ohhh, I know who'll like that..."
So, A quick run down of book based musings for today.... Read More
1# Being woken by tiny puppy dog. Bless you, you hairy little thing. Now get out of my room.
2# Falling down the stairs. Not an embarrassing stumble, A full on, running in a hurry, make a full on mis-step into dreadful empty air and plummet, rolling a screaming to the cold hard ground.

This far from home, the Earth isn't even a... Read More
Every had a good cry in zero gravity? It's beautiful. Each tear slowly detaches and floats away from your face as surface tension gives way. Cry for long enough, or hard enough, and you're surrounded by a tiny contellation of wobbling crystal balls, tiny and salt perfect.
Cheers dude The punch bag might be a good option - we've got a garage, so I might be able to find space... I need to find something aerobic, basically. It's just fitness and weight loss I'm bothered about, I've proven many times recently that I'm mighty
