As is natural, I find myself constantly hit with new challenges, hence the on-the-nose title. The most recent (current) one is trying to find a place to sit and work while my car gets serviced. Coffee shop full. Next one closed. So, I’m sat at the garage typing away with a mask on. Awesome. In … Continue reading New Challenges

17 Oct Progress Report
That shit sounds official as hell. Complete opposite of me, which is alright, I know I'm not ever going to end up as some stuck up, starched collar CEO running around the big money districts of the world. Couldn't stand it. The money that would come with it, sure, but not the job itself. Or … Continue reading 17 Oct Progress Report
Incomplete To-do List
As I so often do before I leave work for the day, I wrote a small to-do list for this evening. Most of the time they sit there on my desk, forgotten, but this one was about the right length to be actually achievable. Especially given that it was only about ten steps long, and … Continue reading Incomplete To-do List

Day log 2
7am - Have actually been awake for a while now, wrapped in a duvet like a toasty cinnamon bun. The usual ‘Do I even need this job’ refrain in the background, but the song stuck in my head, bizarrely, is the one they sing in the boozer in Beauty and the Beast. No idea why, … Continue reading Day log 2
I used to be indecisive…
...and nothing’s fucken’ changed. Still don’t know where I want to be, what I want to do, whether this is better than that or if the grass is greener underwater or whatever. But what I do know is that I’m taking pains to put some time into writing whatever crap happens to be in my … Continue reading I used to be indecisive…
Sunday Evening
Settling down now with a Guinness and a whisky to get a quick reflection jotted down. It's a marvellously relaxing way to ease out of the weekend. Not that the weekend was particularly stressful or busy - certainly not what would be expected of the last minute Christmas shopper. Saturday was spent trying partially to rectify … Continue reading Sunday Evening
