You know, it'd be a hell of a lot easier to be just friends if you weren't as cute as a gosh darned button.
Everyone knows Twitter is the current way of finding out all you want to know about everyone you could possibly wish to know anything about. And as suspected (for a very long time) my favourite write...
...I think.
Dear N and I always laugh at how very much alike we are. Sometimes it really feels like she's just a short version of me (without the mercurial temperament and the vicious streak). Similarly, our liv...
Oh, Dr A, don't be jealous. He may be beautiful, but you're my Captain.
DF will be 22 tomorrow, or so Facebook tells me. He used to sit next to me for an hour every day during Latin. We rarely spoke. It was always my favourite hour of the day. DF is doing the MA in Class...
My music has always reflected my soul. I used to be all funk and glamrock and in-your-face-sexy, and nu-jävlar and secretly rebellious against more or less everything. And lately I'm all Tom Waits an...
Dear Lord,I've always been good. I've never judged a book by its cover, always given everyone a chance, always had time for those less than perfect. My friends say, "She's all about personality" in t...
Listen kids; Freedom of Speech is Grossly Overrated.I'm not usually prone to violence, but if I hear one of you go "Meh, jag säger ju bara vad jag tyckeeer!" one more time, I WILL take you down.
Running on stress and survival instinct this Saturday afternoon. Have read five long journal articles on boring boring Oral History simply because I can't stand thinking anymore. It's been like this ...
Gorgeous rainbow over Benwell last night. It looked like it came down smack in the middle of the gorgeous graveyard down the road. If AK or MD were here, I bet they would have come with me looking fo...
Post-suicide essay Bank Holiday weekend, and as always I feel slightly empty, a little lost and without a purpose the days after a piece of work is finished. Great alcohol-fuelled craziness on Saturd...
Gah. Life is SO unfair.
You’re making this so hard. Or should I say you’re making it so easy? Without even knowing it (I’m sure) you’re providing me with a long list of reasons for why I should run in the opposite direction...
So, here I was, hovering about in worn old jeans and Chucks, looking forward to a day of essay-writing and some coffee with lovely NH in the afternoon. And then my inbox went Ping! with an invitation...
(Seriously, how hot is Jon?)
He waves my research proposal around in front of me, the way he does when he gets excited."...and this is why I think you should go into research; whether here or somewhere else. It would be a loss t...
Scary meeting about my dissertation proposal. I always feel better if I at least look as smart as I wish I was. Hence conservative attire in the style of Temperance Brennan. And messy hair in the sty...
Got a text at 2.57 AM last night, fumbled for my phone and read it, mind half-clouded by sleep. It was from lovely AK (the former student AK, as opposed to the Chili Peppers Frontman AK, hah) who tol...
Yish, what an uneventful weekend. Feels like all I’ve done is laundry and paying bills and reading. And not too much of the latter if I’m perfectly honest. And to top it all off, DM cancelled on me t...
Found this at Tina's, and it seemed sufficiently lazy for a Saturday morning. Love lists like this, I like to pretend I'm famous as hell and being interviewed by someone who hangs on my every word. A...
Well I’ve had my Booth-fix and have another week to work on my paper, even though I kind of finished it in a big rush today. It could do with some more work though, and hopefully by next Friday it’ll...
And all of a sudden my deadline might NOT have been moved (don't know for sure yet) and I may have to turn in aformentioned essay tomorrow after all. And now I'm at that stressed stage where it feels...
How do these days happen? I don't get it, it started so well, with a 9 am meeting about my suicide-paper. I got some more good ideas and J.A was his normal formidable self.(As I am leaving he gives m...
I hate having these prophetic nightmares. Woke up with that sick feeling in the pit of my stomach again. I just see things so clearly when You're not there to could my judgement. Gah.But Newcastle bo...
Ghosts are real, too. They live inside us. And sometimes, they win. (Stephen King, I think. And no, th historian in me can't give quote without referencing.)Just finished the dissertation proposal th...
Last night's birthday bash for John, Natalie and Stacey consisted of wine, cake, boardgames and very good company. Very civilized, and great fun. Unfortunately, this morning it is very obvious that I...
Came back to my blog this morning after having neglected it for a long time, and decided against deleting it and starting a new one. Writing is fun, and I've always liked the idea of doing it in this...
I'm addicted, that's the horrible truth. Ironically, the only reason I didn't relapse in the most spectacular fashion yesterday, was you. And now I've had time to think, I'm elated that I didn't. You...
