<whinge>

i've just spent a miserable day looking after my wife and 2 kids who *all* have flu... today is also the 'go-live' date for a project i've been working on for 2 years which means it's been a work-day i couldn't miss

i therefore had a baby in one arm, a toddler in the other and a mobile phone plasted to my ear for most of the day

i'm just thankful that i'm not personally affected

%lt;/whinge>

i started out as youthinkthisisntme - a song by REM that seems to mimic my general mood... this was complemented by an icon of Terry the Phycho from Crisis' True Faith - don't know why, it was just a bit different

i wanted a change and *was* going to revert to my Uni nickname of Judas (don't ask. really.) and found a really good icon. However, with all the religious debates going about the board these days, i decided to keep my head down and pick another name...

someone (was it DD) called me thinky in a post once and, as it was the first nickname i've had for years, i decided to adopt it as it makes me part of a 'gang'

i've kept the judas icon though...

Yes - although uncomfortably 'edited' to fit into the MEG, i would heartily recommend this to anyone.

It looks beautiful and is a good read

all sensible advice...

although when i want to sleep the sleep of the contented i treat myself to an (ahem) hand-rolled cigarette of dubious nature

works everytime

yeah, me too. so much for convenient jumping-on points, this - my first experience of the 'new' Durham - just leaves me cold

i know Synnamon has come in for some grief (can't think why, 'cause i love it), but at least there's no backlog to catch up on

heh

i initially read that as BottleThrower, and as such was about to go into some kind of anti-Alan Smith diatribe

I sort of wondered if yttim was supposed to be mitty backwards

not a bad idea that, but nah - it was in recognition to my favourite song by my favourite band

The Apologist - REM

they call me the apologist.
and now that I'm at peak.
you know at first it really hurt.
we joke about these things.
I've skirted all my differences
but now I'm facing up.
I wanted to apologize for
everything I was. so
I'm sorry, so sorry...

did you understand me right?
the people here are good.
they tell me what I should have done
and offer what I could.
I'm good, all is good
all's well, no complaints.
when I feel regret,
I get down on my knees and pray.
I'm sorry, so sorry...

I live a simple life
unfettered by complex sweets.
you think this isn't me?
don't be weak.
there I go.
I'm so sorry.

thank you for being there for me.
thank you for listening, goodbye.
I can forfeit selfishness
I hope for you that you apply
this happiness
this peacefulness
I'm sorry, so sorry...

I live a simple life
unfettered by complex sweets.
you think this isn't me?
that's so sweet.
I'm so sorry

funny, looking back now, but with a username like youthinkthisisntme i can understand how certain boarders thought i was sc*jo...

thtinky????

i'll forgive you that slip just this once as - in this new persona - i am maganamous to a fault

oh, and in you're poorly evolved form, it's only natural that conversations between members of the higher orders are bound to confuse your poor piscine mind
