Day Two - Introductions

"I'd like to introduce a man with a lot of charm, talent, and wit. Unfortunately, he couldn't be here tonight, so instead . . ." ~Melvin Helitzer

Today's topic is introduction; how you introduce yourself to new people, unfortunately it's been a long time since I've had to introduce myself, perhaps that's a sign of how closed my social circle has really become so tbh I don't have a clue beyond the usual "I'm Nik, I'm not crazy, honest" - usually I'd only introduce myself after I'd been chatting to the person for a while and thus built up some kind of a rapport beforehand so it's less likely they'll be horrified by my terrible introduction and run a mile... or three.

So yeah, short post for today but hopefully I'll be able to make longer ones about some of the other subjects... that's the plan anyway.

Day Eighteen - Your Plans for Tomorrow

Thankfully, tomorrow is Saturday, so my plan is pretty uncomplicated. I'll probably be getting up with Amanda at about 9.30/10.00 and then walking her to the bus stop when she goes to work before heading home and doing a few chores and then relaxing and playing computer games for the rest of the day until Amanda gets home... ah the simple life

Black History Month Day 9

"I guess that's your choice Christian Baby, I'll be enjoying my physics based parachute while you smash into the ground, have a nice flight!"

Never Forget 3.Oct.11 

But institutional racism is imaginary, right?

Watch.

Day Ten - How I Wake up in the morning

I feel not unlike a small boy, waking from a bad dream to find reality not much of an improvement. ~ John Byrne

I think I was probably born to hibernate; I find waking up to be the biggest challenge of each day, especially if I have nothing on my to-do list for that day. Usually I require the assistance of an alarm clock with several alarms set to ensure that I actually stay awake. Once I've been awakened by my alarm I have a minute or two in which to actually get up, if I don't - chances are I'll go back to sleep again until the next alarm wakes me.

I'm not adverse to getting up early - this morning (with help as usual from Amanda) I was up at 7.45 in order to go to a local market and for a previous job of mine I had to get up at 6.30 to get a train... which wasn't fun.

...anyways, that's today's topic roughly covered, more to come tomorrow!
