Is this thing on?

Standard

*taps microphone* Is this thing on? I mean, still on?

Well it’s nice of you to come back (thank you two people). To say I’ve been wallowing in a mudbath of self-pity is… a bit of an understatement. As I scoop the gloop from my eyes I notice that my last post was 9 whole months ago. Standard jokes about I could have had a kid in that time blah blah – fuck it, you’d have known all about it if I had.

No, nothing so productive as that I’m afraid.

I have at least changed jobs, started a degree, switched my Twitter handle to @medalmagpie (WHY have I not done that before?) and been to the bottom of a well and back. That’s a story for another day – for the meantime I’m still here and still alive and still very much looks for all that glitters.

Why I’m writing now is simply to overcome inertia; to rev the car a couple of times before releasing the handbrake. But I have been sitting in the driver’s seat for months. Plucking up the courage to go.

Key’s in the ignition now…

  1. Settle comfortably in the driving seat, turn the key, use mirrors (no need to look back), rev the engine, and off you go. No wait, I need to be the driver. 😀 You’ve got running shoes.
