Woe oh woe oh woe is me, the gods have taken it upon themselves to single me out and rain down misery upon my weary sole, I am suffering the sufferage of the unimaginable devastation…

.. . I have a slight cold.

The only known cure for a low level illness, is a day of self piteous introspection whilst wrapped in a quilt watching bad American sit coms.

Now the intention when I started typing was to do a lengthy and poetic blog about 2006 and all the wonder and heartache it brought, but this has failed for two reasons, my mind-brain is lacking in creative words [as anyone who has spoken to me this week will testify] and, well frankly, it was my year, not yours… it is simply enough to say I've had pockets of fun, obviously hidden in the woe, I've got to know some new people who will have all changed me slightly, I've sent some embarrassing and inappropriate digital messages whilst drunk [which I have been too often], I have sacrificed potential times with impressive people because my heart was once left in a rusty bucket in a kitchen cupboard many years ago and neglected to take it with me when I moved to new surroundings, I've visited the capital of, I've travelled alone on an aeroplane, I've played thirty nine gigs in sixteen different towns in two different countries, I've had a record that I played on played on radio1 [one of those moments when your life feels like a film], and since September I've had an amazing experience every tuesday night and I've finally moved into a flat that I really really like, so much so I'm even keeping it tidy. I've I've I've, Me Me Me MEEEEE!!!

You know a genuinely think I've broken my brain, I just read back at the blogs I did in the first half of the year, and well, all todays words feel mocked by them… I think I shall sit in a corner and weep gently at the loss of my cleverishness.

As an addendum, a thanks to the couple of people who kept me sane last night, it was a pretty stressful do and the company, smiles and hugs were much appreciated… I shall return the favour one time.
