Superstar

December 8th 2010.

Countdown to Christmas- 17 days left

Me, I'm a Christmas-sy person. Its not even hidden. I start singing Christmas carols by June, people hate me, I ignore, and merrily sing about Christmas tree's and creepy kissing Santa's whilst pretty much counting down the days till Christmas.

You know how everyone has a way in which they see life. Some realistically, others in a strange fantasy version they've concocted. I am not that original. My life is played in my head as a musical.

Musicals have always fascinated me; was it the songs, the dances, the beautiful imagery or really witty humor? Who knows! All I do know is that every moment is a scene in some grand musical  of my life...which in my case would be called Some Kind of Bullshit. Ewe you may say, but trust me its fitting.

Like most leads in any musical, the character always expresses doubt, not the normal garden variety but rather the most institutionally accepted one, which is to say self-doubt. To this character it seems like all the forces in the universe have conspired just to have one hell of a laugh at this reluctant hero's expense (yes people, the leads are ALWAYS the reluctant hero).

Disbelief? Well lets do an example, like we're back at school. Yesterday whilst merrily singing my carols and other various songs about the strange things I was doing, I grab a cup of coffee and spill. Clean up. Walk to living room. Place cup on table and spill. Again. All over table and floor. Only to then clean up, trip and bump my head and said table (oak btw). Five minutes and bruises later I pick up coffee cup only to discover the dredges remained. The rest? On the floor and then the sink.

Someone stared down and peed themself laughing.

Sigh.... Now dear readers I shall adjourn to my bed.

Next time on Quiet! Fridge Fear dun dun duuuun!!!


(Honestly gentle readers, you will find that this blog has a certain lack of cohesiveness. I would like to say I've done this for a reason and been extremely post modern, but alas no. It is only because I lack focus (not just in blog form but dissertation and life too), I live in hope this will turn into something somewhat entertaining.)

Some Assembly Required

Hello dear possibly non exsistent readers!

Since my first entry the only thing I've been longing to do was to come back online and repost....alas this did not happen. The weekend came in like a tornado and with it removed the really awesome idea's I had for the blog.... now I'm left with mere ponderings on not much.

I'm trying to refraine from the very natural inclination I have, which is to turn this blog into some sort of a diary...it'll eventually bore me, I was never good with diaries.

....thinks...stares out window....thinks a little more....

I think I know where this blog is going...sorta...

Right now I'm in a transitional phase, out of varsity, job hunting for what would be the better part of 2 years and still no prospects, my loss of ambition and idea's or stories to write...its really sucky to thing that you've peaked at age 21.

But its time for a change, this blog with be a sort of Gratitude Journal or a space in which I can reflect, if I bore you...ooohhh well I'm writing this for myself not for an audience. Maybe some part of me is hoping it will get lost in the ether that is the world of cyberspace...or it might be turned into that really great book I'm trying to write but never seems to come out. Who knows?

Well, thats all folks!

Welcome to the Hellmouth!

Ominous a title as the above may seem, let me assure you dear Reader not always with this blog be entirely dreary....or maybe it will, time...she shall tell...

Bearing in mind this is my first post and my Broadband is as slow as...erm something really slow, it has taken me the better part of 2 hours to get this Blog started. In short, this post will be short.

The premise for my Blog is still unknown to me, so if there is anyone reading I apologize for the random posts that may or not occur in frequency. What I can tell you is that every post will be titled using a title of Buffy the Vampire Slayer eps...I'm obssessed...really I am....

I'm hoping this will evolve into something useful, informative or at the very least cathartic....

If anyone out there is reading, I do hope you enjoy or at least I've managed to lull you into a deep sleep...sigh mission completed...
