New week

New week

Hey hey!  It's Monday!  How are you feeling?  Is this too obnoxiously boisterous for you?

It is raining, and do I have an umbrella?  Well, I do now, although it is actually a ladies' umbrella with a pink lining.  But why must we submit to the tyranny of pink, eh?  I have an umbrella, it has a deep pink lining, I am still a man.  Just a man, with a man's courage.  Like Flash Gordon.  Flash Gordon's get-up is significantly more wussy than mine and you wouldn't go calling him a big girl, would you?  No.

My real problem today is that the one interval of sunshine and blue skies amidst the rain and wind was when I was deciding on "Coat or not?".  And so I decided "Not".

I'm cold.

sunny side up

sunny side up

It feels like a long time since I updated!  Ages.  I don't know if that's true or not.

How was Easter for you?  I think for the first time maybe ever I didn't have a chocolate egg, or indeed any chocolate at all.  This did not give me too much pain, in the final analysis.  Perhaps the eggs stuff really is for kids?  We'll see - it's not like I didn't have pancakes on Pancake Day*.  Still, it was a nice long weekend with the odd spot of painting in our spare room and a bit of the old ultraviolence in GTA IV.

Imagine if you lived in Liberty City!  No shops are ever open, the threat from terrorism means you can barely get from one island to the next and every few minutes your car is stolen.  Especially if it's a fancy car.  You're probably safe in a people-carrier, although not from me, because I love the way those suckers handle.  Much better than some flighty sports car (although I spent a good 10 minutes trying to total a Turismo - man, that thing was immortal).  if this doesn't happen, you're still not safe.  Someone will ram you, or knock the cup out of your hand, or even just throw a petrol bomb at you by mistake.

I'd move if I were you.  I hear San Andreas is nice.

*Actually, I didn't, I had them about a month later.  But still.  My motto is "fuck lent" so I can have pancakes whenever I want.  The great benefits of atheism are plain to me. Pancakes whenever, chocolate eggs where available. Sundays free.

Monetise?

I'm not sure what that means. It's not a word!

I've not been into Blogger much lately, you can tell, so to see a tab saying "Monetise" is a bit surprising. I assume it doesn't transform your work into an impressionist masterpiece? Although that would be cool. Someone should totally do that.

Anyway, happy Nailing Jesus to Wood Day! Poor blighter, he was only born in December. You monsters!

Hmm. Ooh, maybe one of these days I will go through and put labels on my posts. That would be exciting!

Oh, that looks bad

Oh, that looks bad

I do an April Fool's post about not posting, then I don't do my usual Friday update.  Whoops.  Heh, no-one's ever going to check my site again.

Well, it's Monday and I have a camera!  A proper, 35mm Canon EOS 50e if you are of a camera-geek bent, with a 50mm Prime lens.  It's fucking gorgeous.  Gorgeous, I tell you!  I'm looking forward to the photographs.  My first SLR!  Eeeee!

In conclusion - in your face, digital camera revolution!

As if.

As if.

Blogging off

Blogging off

This is it!  My thanks to Mike for the loan of this webspace for so long, but I feel that I can no longer maintain a blog.  It's just such a pain!  Sorry, my single-figure readership, but I'm upping sticks for an easier to maintain medium.  This is what you call "fair warning".

When I get round to it, ie. when I'm at a computer I can ftp from, I shall post up links to my BeBo space and my Facebook page.  Those of you who follow me on Twitter will have to rely on me feeding my Facebook status updates to Twitter.

Farewell, Blogger.  Goodbye, wetflame.  It's been fun.
