  So anyway, I feel in a contemplative mood at the minute. Life is good. Not amazing, but good; if I didn't have this job, and my wife, and her growing bump, life would suck - and though I often feel that life could be better--less stress, more money--I have things now that five years ago…

  July 21, 2013

  So anyway, my wife is fifteen weeks pregnant. It's flown by, helped tremendously by the fact that she's barely suffered from sickness at all. There's a bit of a bump now, and her breasts are bigger now, but as far as hormones, moods, temperament go, she's just the same as always. Or at least appe...

  So anyway, this work thing. Started on 9th October. It's now 21st April the following year. That means I've pretty much been in it for six months. I should be getting a raise in this month's pay packet, which must surely mean I'm doing well, and I'm far more confident at it than I was…

  So anyway, this work thing. Started on 9th October. It's now 7th December. That means I've pretty much been in it for two months. Got the hang of all the basics now; my main duty is to enter orders we receive onto the computer system. It's simple. There are only a couple of things I…

  Yeah, that's pretty much the whole entry, there in the title. I now have a job. Got through to the second interview stage with three others, and they picked me to get the role. Pretty chuffed, with a little relief thrown in to the mix at finally being employed again, but mostly nervous. I'm not&h...

  Read my story! I'm reviving Conflict Ego. I posted a lot of it up on blogger a few years back, then took it all down. Now I'm planning on posting it up again, in issues just like it was last time. The first issue is up, as well as the home page. I'm going to…

  August 25, 2012

  So anyway, twenty-three eighteen. My girl and I will probably saunter off to bed about midnight. Snuggle for a bit. Maybe I'll nom on her neck and drive her crazy again. We'll see. We read a story (or the bits that are written thereof) that my sister's fiancé's mum is writing a few nights back,&h...

  July 31, 2012

  So anyway, I've been spending my time writing - trying to get the first novel of my saga ready for sending off to agents. It hasn't been easy, but with help from my girl, and a little from my older sister's mother-in-law-to-be, I think it's there. The earliest document pertaining to it that I can...
