Proof of life
I'm still alive. Here's a little of what's been going on, and what's to come.

They’re bringing whimsy back
Apple brought out some new devices and I got a printer. That’s it. That’s the episode.

We go the long way round
This is the one where I figure out marketing.
Fight, flight, or freeze
I explore my morning routine, modern pop music, and how to deal with things that are offensive.
Sniffles
A short episode today as I’m sniffly and don’t want to make snotty noises all over the mic. I’m certain all’s well so will be back tomorrow, no doubt in full force.
Tough love is nonsense
It’s a slightly higher-energy episode than yesterday’s, and one which weaves in and out of tangents like a 70s movie car chase.
Neuance – where d'it go?
I recap my day, talk about being too fat, and then explore – for about 20 minutes – a Facebook post about education funding in the States. It’s riveting stuff.

Hedgehog down days
This is the one where I sing. Also I talk about moods, and create a metaphor involving spiny woodland creatures.
ICQ IRL. ASL? K, BRB
I talk about Internet dating in the wake of the millennium, and perhaps get a bit oversharey about my own experiences in the arena of affection.
Dolly Books
I complain – briefly and lightly – about marketing, read some nice news about Dolly Parton giving away books, and follow a tangent that takes in Johnny Vegas and 101 D...
The Tangent Olympics
I bury us deep in tangents today, talking about DAT, a highly awkward theatre sketch, and the time I trapped a children’s author in a library.
