The Darkness. The lovely melatonin bought me this several years ago as a Secret Santa gift. I played it for a couple of hours, got bored, and stopped. Many years later I played Syndicate, a game by the same team that made The Darkness. Having loved Syndicate, I decided to revisit The Darkness to see if I was a little…

Please note, none of the websites mentioned in this post are still active. Am I ready to launch this now? Yeah, I'm ready to launch this now. http://eyess.net Jane suggested many, many months ago that I have a dedicated website for my art, and here it is. I was originally going to post it all up on here, but I…

Tonsillitis

Posted inCreativity, ReflectionsNo Comments
I have tonsillitis. It is not good. Jane has it, Myrtle has it, Claire has it, Lewis has it, Ethan had it - I feel like putting a black X up on our front door. I've had it since Thursday, and it is progressively getting worse. I will be going to the doctors tomorrow, for sure. I worked a 12…

Don’t think about smoking

Posted inMusic, Reflections, VideogamesNo Comments
These past few weeks have been dominated by smoking. I've been thinking about smoking, thinking about not smoking, hating every time I light a cigarette up and being totally schizophrenic about it all. I want to be a non-smoker, or an ex-smoker, but at the same time I don't feel I can face not being a smoker. I know Allen…

Twelve weeks and One day

Posted inReflections, Site RelatedNo Comments
Good news! I'm pretty sure I've survived Asda's 12 week probation period. I'll have been there 12 weeks exactly on Saturday, which is my next shift. I was unsure whether I would actually be kept on after the 12 weeks, as no-one said anything either way, but I'm incredibly glad it looks like I will be. Paul worked there one…

Getting healthy

Posted inReflectionsNo Comments
I've decided it's time. What spurred me on? I'm fed up of being fat, basically! Back when I had Norovirus, I lost 10lbs in the space of two days, and seeing my weight below 19 stone on the scales was invigorating! I know I didn't lose it fair and square, and I put over half of it back on when…

Busy being busy

This blogging lark is starting to get away from me now I'm working. I think I just need to update my schedule of LOLs, Reach screenshots and weekly round-ups. The LOLs and screenshots are fairly easy to do, so I'll keep them on the same days, but doing the weekly round-up depends on when I have enough time off, and…

On the desk

Posted inFilms/TV, Reflections, VideogamesNo Comments
Oh, hi. Work is going well - I recently had my two-week review thing and expressed my concerns that I was not being used to my full capabilities, and lo and behold, I was put on the desk yesterday to get a feel for it, with a view to reorganising the Music and Video department. It's a pretty big mess,…
