The dating game…

October 26th, 2008 by Dave

Ok, so getting back in “the game” is a little more difficult than you realise.  Especially when you haven’t been in said game for quite some time and you are not quite the same person as you were when you were having moderate success.
So I have taken to trying to get inside the minds of [...]

More finance shenanigans

October 22nd, 2008 by Dave

So…after a few days of excruciating pain and finally moving the pain to an amber alert I am able to type a little.  Fortunately, for a man bereft of interesting things to blog about, there was an interesting diversion today where I work.
A well dressed businessman, complete with briefcase tried to gain access to the [...]

Ch ch ch ch changes….

September 8th, 2008 by Dave

So, I sit here - 3 days into the whole not smoking thing, a week into the exercise thing and the same into the diet thing.
Jesus wept.  Pretty tough if I am honest.  I don’t know if I built up some immunity to Zyban from when I took it years ago, or if I was [...]

Healthy?!?

August 24th, 2008 by Dave

OK, put the paramedics on alert….for soon….I shall run.
I have visions of my athletic prowess from my youth springing to the fore and running a record time around Frankfurt, passing professionals with consumate ease and mocking them mercilessly….. Visions that are definitely suggesting that I am not entirely in my right mind.  There may well [...]

Feelings

July 17th, 2008 by Dave

So another day, another passworded post.  I was going to remove the last one, and in fact I did for a short while.  But then I thought, screw it…noone can read it so it doesn’t matter.  Then I went through some stuff last night and lo and behold…another one pops out this morning.
Feelings are strange [...]

Scared much?

July 8th, 2008 by Dave

So we have already established my fear of public speaking, and it got me thinking about other things and situations that keep me rooted to the spot. 
How do you define a phobia?  Wikipedia says “A phobia (from Greek: φόβος, phobos, “fear”), is an irrational, intense, persistent fear of certain situations, activities, things, or persons. The [...]

Cheat much?

June 30th, 2008 by Dave

So, I promised myself to deliver a post every day this month….I seem to have achieved it with this very post.  Now, I don’t think that making a post about making posts is necessarily cheating….
It was bloody hard, totally lacking in quality and did I say hard?  I stepped over to a blog the other [...]

Argue much?

June 27th, 2008 by Dave

Is it bad when your boss starts sending emails that end with things like “Ask them to change it, but try and be nice”?
Sure, I can argue and I can do it pretty well.  At work I can get quite aggressive, which is in direct contrast to what a soft cuddly teddy bear I am [...]

Getting old…

June 24th, 2008 by Dave

Ok…so 35 is round the corner.  i know this as I have recently referred to myself as 34 and 11 12ths.  When did this happen.  I don’t feel 35, christ I don’t feel 34.
One of the key identifiers (of which there are numerous) is that I seem to be falling apart.  I groan when I [...]

On reflection…

June 22nd, 2008 by Dave

So the summer is kind of almost officially close to being nearby.  Or at least that’s how I view it with the ever changing Frankfurt weather.
As pointed out by a friend, one of the best things about summer is how the women over here have a penchant for the G-String and white trousers combo.  There [...]

Is senility contagious?

June 18th, 2008 by Dave

I hope not, although recently I seem to have caught an accute case of it. I had a great idea for a blog post on Saturday, but between having the idea and screwing my ankle (AGAIN!!!), by the time I got home I had forgotten it.
This is happening with monotonous regularity at the moment [...]

Writers block..

June 15th, 2008 by Dave

Now, I am under no illusions about my ability to call myself a writer, but I find myself suffering from that heinous of afflictions….writers block.
I made a decision that I would attempt to post something every day this month, without fail and up until now I have done ok.  I regularly page vomit (how I [...]

Close encounters of the vehiculer kind

May 18th, 2008 by Dave

Yesterday something interesting happened to me.  By interesting I mean painful and by happened to me I mean…well, happened to me of course.
I was walking across a pedestrian crossing when I was clipped by some moron that decided to go through a red light.  At least I think it was a moron, they definately had [...]

And so it begins again…

April 21st, 2008 by Dave

So, I should be getting my internet this week sometime (sound familiar?).  I don’t know if the engineer will bother turning up this time, but I hope so.
I always knew that the internet was vital to my life, but I hadn’t realised just how much until now.  The blog is a small part of it, [...]

No internet….aaaargh

April 13th, 2008 by Dave

So right now (according to my ISP), I have until Wednesday to wait until my net gets reconnected.
Quite frankly it is killing me at the moment. No blog to bore you senseless with, no pr0n to surf for (just kidding mum)..
No updates to my (perfectly legally acquired) TV show collection. I am [...]

Tired and back…sort of

April 9th, 2008 by Dave

Well, I am back home and should be back online around the 16th of this month, a little while after they originally said, but not too bad I guess. It will give me the opportunity to get my apartment in order I suppose.
I had a hell of a week, but it was very enjoyable…I [...]

The list

March 26th, 2008 by Dave

When I separated from Lorrin, I moved back to Ollerton and moved in with my Grandparents for a while. I was a bit of a mess after the breakup if I am honest and was glad of the support from my family.I got back in contact with old friends and slowly started building up [...]

Why am I here?

March 6th, 2008 by Dave

Woah… sounds like a profound statement.  Trust me it’s not.
I have spent long and varied hours reading through other peoples blogs, mainly for distraction and definately for the funnies, and it strikes me as a good way to get things off your chest and maybe….just maybe create a modicum of entertainment for some other brain [...]
