Because not all of us want to wear beige…
I am sitting here on a Friday afternoon trying to think about what I want to talk about. Not usually an issue, but today inspiration isn't exactly flowing through my veins. It's been a while since I've flexed my writing muscle, but it's also been a mad couple of months, both personally and work-wise. Probably… Continue reading Motorcycle Emptiness
It's been a while again, right? What was supposed to be a place to dump my thoughts has become like a graveyard of late. But that is ok. I feel like I am waking up again, I don't know if this is good news or what! Back in November, I wrote about wanting more. I'd… Continue reading Enjoy the silence
Can it really be four months since I last blogged? I think it can - and there is no shame in that. Life has been doing its usual thing of kicking me in the bollocks sometimes, except I don't have any, but you get the gist, right? So what has been happening? Well, my dad… Continue reading What the hell is going on around here?
Yep, I know, it’s Christmas day and I’m posting a blog with a title that’s about death. Well, it’s not all jingle bells for everyone at this time of year, right? At the time of starting this, it’s 6:20 am and I’ve been awake for 90 mins crying. On Christmas fucking day… I would suggest… Continue reading (Don’t fear) the reaper
You'll probably get the reference if you're of a certain age; if not, don't worry. I'll still let you read on... So, this will be all about music, which is probably no surprise as most of my blogs reference it in some way, shape or form. It's definitely safe to say that music is my… Continue reading Pop Musik
I am feeling reflective on a late Sunday afternoon in November. I've been talking loads about what has been and not much about what will be. That needs to change. After all, we're not going backwards, are we? As always, a song is linked to the blog's title. It feels like this is a thing… Continue reading More!
In the last blog, I spoke a bit more about my relationship and how ADHD, hormones and mental health are affecting it. One of the things I talked about is maladaptive daydreaming. This is something that could be linked to both ADHD and some mental health disorders. Essentially, you can daydream for hours and control… Continue reading Let me be your fantasy
Yep, another song track - but I'm not telling you who this one is by. Answers on a postcard, please... And yes, this is another blog about love, or at least my take on it. You all know by now that these last two years haven't been exactly kind to me, so my relationship with… Continue reading At the heart of it all
I am 50. I have no idea how I got here, but one thing that I've started to realise over the last six months since my birthday is that I am different. I really noticed this yesterday when I was wandering back to the car after being in the Trafford Centre with my sister. This… Continue reading Love me or leave me
This is not the first time this has been the title of a blog or an article. I originally used this over on LinkedIn as a title for an article which talked about the transition from corporate to freelance work, back in 2018. You can read that article here if you feel like you want… Continue reading Can you see the real me?
