Gaming, Music, The Internet, Whatever….

There is a problem I seem to have. No, this isn’t more about my bladder concerns (something else I can thankfully banish to 2008) but more to do with here.

Throughout the day I have a seemingly never ending supply of thoughts going through my head. Anything and everything usually; some stuff I’d like to share, some stuff I probably shouldn’t and some things that are technically illegal in 47 of the 50 US states. Though quite why I spend my days thinking about MDF, I’ve no idea. Or however that joke from I’m Alan Partridge goes.

Problem is, I have a never ending supply of things to say, but never a way to say them.  On a basic level it’s a form of writers block but it seems to go a bit beyond that; some other kind of mental block that I could really do with sorting out cause it does seem to extend to my everyday life as well as this humble little interweb home. For example at the moment I seem to have plenty of thoughts on Liverpool’s form in the Premier League and Rafa’s apparently remarkable rant against Sir Alex, which was neither remarkable or a rant; the wonderments of Fallout 3 and why it’s inspiring me to visit Washington this year; and in turn why resurrecting beloved franchises from the past can be a dangerous thing for anyone to do (partly inspired by my mate Tim’s review of the update of the Ghost in The Shell) as well as countless other things such as politics, the economy, gaming, travelling and the world at large.

I suppose I could do with getting my head round it fairly soon. Not cause I seriously believe that what I have to say is important, more that the longer I let these things lie, the more they annoy and frustrate you (one thing I did learn from last year, but I’m not getting into that here and now.) And I’m certainly not concerned with coming as sounding childish and amateurish, as if I was I certainly wouldn’t have imported all my old Blogger posts.

A start would be to touch on the thoughts raised above but simply devoting some time here would enough of a catalyst to get the mind up and running properly for 2009, and a properly running mind something that was sorely missing in 2008. And I think with that, we can put 2008 firmly in the back of our minds and move onto bigger and hopefully better things. Or at the very least one of the two, anyroad.

YEEEAAAHHHH……

So the last two weeks then? Have, in essence, been very long and tiring. Sadly. Unfortunately holidays are not free and thus overtime at work is often needed to pay for them, so my good run in keeping my eye in on this venerable site was broken thanks to that. Thankfully, things should get back to normal (well as normal anything to do with me ever are) reasonably soon. Certainly should find some time to post on Sunday, no question. Settle down with the Macbook in front of the big game against Chelski on Sunday and get some things done around here, namely sorting out the design a bit more. Think it’s mainly a font thing that is irritating me now but can play about with that in fullness of.

As a sidenote, got round to watching Full Metal Jacket again for the first time in what, must be, pushing ten years a couple of nights ago. What a stunning film that is. Incredible to think that almost all of it was filmed in a disused gasworks on the Thames.
