It reminds me of when I was unemployed, having all this free time. But it’s weird – instead of bumming around playing videogames all day and moderating meaningless internet forums, this time I am spending my time improving my situation. I asked Twitter when the lockdown first started if this …
Today feels a little bit like before Jake was born, back when I had unlimited free time. Man, I had such narrow perceptions of that unlimited free time. I have purpose and drive now. I thought I used to have it. Turns out I was wrong. No urgency. No haste. …
Oh my, has it really been that long since my last post? That really is very bad of me, especially considering I could’ve knocked up a few smaller update posts on my phone during a lunchbreak at work or something. I’ve been in some pretty dark places between then and …
Yeah, I think I was a little hard on myself the other night, I was just looking through the targets I had made and saw that I had failed them and maybe got a little down heartened, but then I realised that I did a whole lot of other stuff …

The title just about sums up the new modem. I won’t take a picture of the speed test as I can’t be bothered to make one – you’ll just have to take my word for it. The technician left without setting it up or telling us what any of the …
So what happened in 2013 then? It was another mixed bag. The best thing ever happened: I stopped smoking. And I don’t even miss it. I’m not suffering from some black depression because I’m holding myself back from smoking my precious cigarettes, I’m not deluding myself by switching to an …
As if it was not clear from the above title, I’m quickly running out of ways to combine the words “Friday” and “Update” in creative ways. Ooh, it’s Friday the 13th – scary? I did kind of get really ill really suddenly last night whilst playing the RGF. I was …
