I noticed something last night…

By Mandrill | Published September 28, 2006

I was sitting at the kitchen window, lookiing up at the small patch of sky visible from my perch and smoking a cigarette (yes I know, I gave up but I started again, its my wifes fault) and I realised that I wasn’t angry. Now if you’re a regular reader you’ll now that I’m angry about alot of stuff, what you may not have gleaned from this site is that I am (was?) angry an awful lot of the time, which can’t be a good thing. Like Sandra Bullock’s character in Crash (not the Cronenberg one) said “I wake up angry every day, and I don’t know why!” That was me. Well I don’t seem to be angry anymore.
Maybe I just don’t have the energy to waste being angry, being at home with the sprog every day (and cooking I might add). Or maybe something clicked in my head and I realised that there’s really no point being angry, it ultimately doesn’t achieve anything.
This is not to say that I don’t care about the same things and believe the world could be so much better if we just opened our eyes and realised how bad it actually is, I do. But I’m not angry any more. I can live with it, finally.
Sprog is getting fussy so I’d better go see to him, there will be more photos soon (and I’ll reinstate the old ones, I promise). Laters all.

    Its extemely liberating not having to go to work every day (especially in a job you hate).
    I'll look into some form of preview system. Not having used the comments much since the switchover I didn't really notice.

    I kinda wondered at that. Your response over on SD was much mellower than I expected.

    I have a rather elderly 'sprog' of my own that I am caring for. She had a stroke back a bit and every experience is new and fresh for her. For me it's rather more like 'Groundhog Day'.

    I look forward to your post on IP but it's possible we may just have different philosophies of property. All the same, we probably still share common cause on most matters.

    Do you have a preview button? One advantage of it is that if you enter the Turing code wrong (as I just did) when you page back, the comment reappears. I have enough of a problem even with a preview button that I'm afraid I may be totally incoherant without one. This time I'll copy my comment before I try to post it.

    Your site looks good. I like the dark background/light print format.
