The eyestrain finally got to me and I decided to update the template used for this website. Black is the new brown and brown is the new blue and that means that puce is the new purple. 🙂 The Missus saw what I was doing and said: “Thank god for that. I hated your last design.” Gee – thanks for the honesty. Why didn’t you tell me sooner?
It’s not quite finished as I haven’t put all the links back on but I’ll get around to it eventually. The idea is to have something a little more legible and to ape the rest of the blogs/websites that are out there. Being radical with design and trying to do something weird doesn’t always pay off. Plus my design are crap. Stick to something else.
Not much else to report, really. I told The Missus a story the other day at the pub. It was an idea I had for novel. She seemed to like it and did her best to convince me to start writing it. I should give it a go but my fingers aren’t willing. Lazy son-of-a-bitch.
The weather veers from heatwave heathaze to overcast November afternoons. At the moment I am wearing shorts and a jumper just to be on the safe side.
On Saturday, I spent a couple of hours with one of the bits of kit we’ve ever bought: a coin counter. Over the years, we’ve collected jars and jars and jars of assorted loose change. So in an attempt to have a clear out, we bought the coin counter and decided to bank all these coins. I forgot what the final total in 1, 2 and 5 pences was, but I think it was around £80. Not bad, I guess.
For the record, I’ve a pain in my chest/back. The pain is dull, but depending on movement, sometimes feels like a stabbing pain. I would like to say it is easing since its arrival on Saturday but it keeps coming back. Not sure if it is my back or something more “internal”.
In terms of creativity: 0% done recently.
Just been wasting time and wasting time and wasting time…
