Long Time No See

I wonder how many blog posts start with some kind of apology for not writin. I am going to hazard a guess at around 90%. Anyway, if you hadn't guessed this is my "sorry I haven't written a while" post.

Last month I quit my job (which was going nowhere) in the hope that I would find something better soon. So in the mean time I am a little on the poor side and going out to give myself things to write about unfortunately costs money. So for now I will update with things like reviews of music, movies and tv shows (True Blood is my current TV obsession). I'm going to start by doing one of those "I am currently watching/listening/eating" memes (I apologise if I am inadvertently stealing this meme without giving appropriate credit)

So here we go:

Watching... True Blood of course, I originally started watching it a while ago and the soapy non episodic feel kind of wound me up. I watched it this time round though and it has sex, blood, vampires, what is there not to like? Oh Anna Paquin that's a perfectly reasonable thing not to like.

Listening... Jamie T's new album, Kings & Queens. It took a while but Jamie certainly didn't suffer, like many do, from 2nd album syndrome and I would say this far surpasses the ffirst particular not to the track Emily's Heart and Jilly Armeen.

Drinking... not coke (as in cola). I have given up fizzy drinks and I am not feeling great about. Instead I'm drinking mineral water and tea (vanilla black mostly but also earl green and sencha)

Reading... Belching Out The Devil by Mark Thomas, goes hand in hand with the above
