(Content Warning – poor mental health, description of a mental break, mention of suicide) I’ve mentioned a few times that I suffered from a mental break last year. They used to be called nervous breakdowns. Technically a doctor can’t say definitively that I did because I didn’t immediately end up in in-patient care. However two … Read More
I am glad that I know Glasgow pretty well, not only because it makes studying there easier but also because it doesn’t feel as bad as perhaps it would knowing that the last time I was here I went on a date with The Fae Ref. I suspect if I ever end up in A&E … Read More
I wasn’t really feeling my birthday this year. I had planned to have dinner with my partners. All of them meeting each other. Then to rent a place with my Welsh partners to just hang in, to make some art in, and then… we broke up instead. I couldn’t share with them and so I’ve … Read More
I started explaining to M-i-L and FJ that the biggest lesson I had learnt over the weekend was not to have a first kiss whilst in character and they started laughing. I had actually forgotten that I reffed their first kiss… or at least I was a ref that weekend. I still maintain watching him … Read More
My bets paid out to 5th and 6th place for the National so I’m up on the bookies, a position I enjoy being in. Then Cambridge did me proud! So FJ is buying me dinner plus dessert and coffee. It’s not been a bad weekend, even when I had to bail on M-I-L’s birthday it … Read More
This weekend I will probably be losing some money. I’ve got high hopes for the National but less so for the Boat Race. However, I got good odds on Anibale Fly and they’ve distinctly shortened since. I put a bit on One For Arthur mostly for last year, not with any real thoughts to win … Read More
I have to admit that I enjoyed turning thirty. I know that FJ agrees with me and I’m fairly sure that there are other people out there too who think it’s kinda good to be this old. I actually feel like I know what I’m doing a lot of the time. Do I feel like … Read More
I love the energy bursts that the start of the year seems to give me. I’ve no idea if I’m biting off more than I can chew but I’m working my way through Noom and the House Organisation Challenge as well as starting the Spell A Day for a year Challenge. Every so often at … Read More
I have pretty much just slept for two days straight, pretty much the only reason I got up today was work. The Boss needed a prescription picked up (technically I’m on holiday from them but available in emergencies) and The Magic Fan needed some socialising. I tried out Magic the Gathering Unstable for the first … Read More
This winter I have felt particularly aggrieved every time I’ve got a cold. I’m behaving like I’ve got man-flu or something! The aches and fatigues just feel as if they’re the straw before the camel’s back breaks. See – I can’t stop being melodramatic about them! The Girl With the Golden Hair and I were … Read More
