Hiding a little
On 2 Feb I found a site that was centered around mental health and experiences. It appeared to be quite new and such sites are far less intimidating then those with established members who have already set the world in order so I thought I’d join. In a couple of months I expect to have [...]
Number 5
Starbucks in Leicester the staff have always been polite. There may be a touch of work-weary there at times but polite is always there. London they were good. The Starbucks in San Francisco I don’t remember. In New York it was straightforward. It wasn’t rude, more like “You want coffee I’ll give it you – [...]
Slowly slowly
Took me well over twice the time it should have done to get from the hotel to nulabs, I managed to miss the Starbucks, missed what the map says is an Apple Store but we have those at home so no loss. What we don’t have is the colorful signage, or so many cars that [...]
Somewhere new
I thought I had a good idea of how to get back to the nulabs office from the hotel and had this shopping mall not looked so good I might have proved I knew. Wandered into one which turned out to be pretty long and the street I found myself on also looked interesting as [...]

Polite ignoring
One thing I hated about Facebook was that sort of obligation to add people who wanted to add you. There was nothing to say you had to but there felt like there was an expectation, that you would offend if you did not. This was partly why I deleted my account there then later re-added [...]
Ill 2.

No talk, just cope.
Until her sickness do us part: why men leave ill partners Men are seven times more likely than women to leave a seriously ill partner, a study has found. So why are males less able to cope? Times Online I joined a forum recently for me. Nothing at all to do with Jacq. I joined [...]
I want
to go to Spain, or Portugal or Italy for 2 weeks. No internet. Just cafes, bars and eateries. No TV, maybe a newspaper. Maybe no laptop though playing Infocom would be nice. Books. Newspapers, crosswords, coffee, chatting but lots of silence too. Lots of sleep. For things to slow, be calm, relaxed. A rest. 3 [...]
pqrst
So I said there were no worries…. Everything was normal yesterday morning. Nothing at all unusual. At some point mid-late morning (I forget the time. It’s in irc logs but it doesn’t matter) I had just chatted with Hanni on skype and gone afk from irc as I felt odd. Literally a few moments later [...]
