Look at how much I love myself...
I don't think I can find any more love from anyone else, am I thus subjected to a life of loneliness and egowankery?

Can I get your podcast from iTunes? I have almost run out of ways to procrastinate.
Yours ever,

I have achieved neither of these things and it grates upon me. Should I continue to pursue my dream, what can I rededicate my life to at such a late stage?

I solved that one by never reading horoscopes.

I've just been gazzed by a random /talker who I fear may have got the wrong ides about me. I'd given them a shout to say hi, and now I feel I may have been a bit too over-friendly. One feels so terrible in these difficult social situations.
I'd like your advice, and also a plug for the b3ta book group I'm trying to set up.
Can you help?

I shall add you to the list.
Fuck knows how I'll organise it, but I'll work something out.

Sci-fi, classics, modern, non-fiction etc. Have you had any suggestions so far?
(, Mon 25 May 2009, 15:06, archived)
I'm going to keep the suggestion list as broad as possible - basically, anything you would like to read, or have read and would like to talk about.
All recommendations welcomed.

That would make the choice easier.
First month - One from Spangles' book pile.

I've done this idea as a drunken inspiration that I'm going to follow through with, and I need all the help I can get. Seems like a popular idea, though.
I shall be delighted to include you, dear Spangles.

by Herman Hesse. It's odd, and possibly great.

although I suspect you'd like Steppenwolf if I had to recommend a book of his. It's all a bit pre-hippy hippy, mind.

I hate the ones that build up a really good story and then suddenly realise they've got to finish and rush through the last bit.
(, Mon 25 May 2009, 15:08, archived)
The Discovery of Heaven is a fantastic book, and then the last-but-one chapter feels like a rush job, and then the final chapter has a great twist that leaves you unsure whether it actually makes up for the disappointment of the chapter before.

don't worry, it's not compulsory, although there will be prizes for outstanding effort.

I'm wearing bright pink socks and red shoes. Should I go and change footwear, and if so, which?

I did get dressed without thinking this morning, but not that thoughtlessly. I used to go commando when I was younger and wearing very tight dresses, but sadly no longer.

Back in january, I lent a mate £100 who was going through a bit of a rough patch with his family (wife and 3 kids)
Wife has severe anorexia, and wasn't able to continue her job, and he has a full time job as a teacher. All 3 kids are 7 or younger
I was told I would get the money back in March, when they got back from a 'much needed and pre-booked' Holiday to Eurodisney. In the time since March though, his mother in law has now developed terminal lung cancer, and the father in law also had a cancer scare last month. The wife in all of this has also been hospitalized recently due to the anorexia, levaing my mate with a full time teaching job (albeit extensive paid leave) and 3 kids to look after. She is now out of hospital and has a part time job at.. wait for it... Macdonalds. My question is this: How much of a c*nt will I look if I ask for the £100 back now, which he assured me would be mine back in March? It's The Present Mrs. Architect's Birthday shortly, and I'd like that £100 to put towards a nice long weekend away for the two of us, as we could do with a holiday too.

as a rule, if I lend money to friends I don't expect it back.

/as a rule, I don't lend money to mates or otherwise, but given the fact there were 3 young chiddlers to support in all of this, I felt obliged to help

I tend to think, would I rather have the money or the friendship? That is normally the decider.
