Tring Tings

Lots of little notes for you today. Have at thee: – Get Stuffed in Tring is up there with the loveliest gigs ever. I’d never been to Tring before and, worse than that, I’d never even heard of it. But it turns out is a really lovely town not far from London, with lots of […]

Corn Dust

The corn on the cob I’ve stuck in the over is clearly burning. I decided to start this blog and the second I did I smelt burning. However I refuse to bow down to the demands of an inanimate cooking pulse and so I will leave it there until this blog is typed. If this […]

Counters of Hope

My local Barclays bank has five counters for staff to sit behind and deal with the ever growing queue of people. For at least two to three years now, there has never been more than two people behind these counters at any time. Essentially there are three counters of wasted hope. I queued up for […]

Marching Onwards

Its Spring! There’s sunshine outside my window and several duckling, baby rabbits (ribbits?) and daffodils all simultaneously dancing in circles outside my window. The last few bits were lies, but there is definitely sunshine and I’m fairly sure all the other bits will follow pretty soon as that’s what happens in Spring isn’t it? I’ve […]

The Morrisons Effect

Its a day off today and I’m so excited about it that I’ve managed to get to nearly 2pm having completely wasted it so far. This is not fair. Time is not allowed to fly by if I am not having fun. There are rules that should be in place. So far my day has […]

Sign Of God

This is the current advert outside the loony church round the corner from me. Much as there is large part of me that likes to find huge holes in a fraudulent cult corporation masquerading as a religion, they do seem to dangle the bait out there like they want passers by to mock. I haven’t […]

Caffeine Hated

I’m really tired. Proper stupid tired. As a result over the last day or so I have pumped levels of caffeine into my body that were someone to lick me, they’d probably buzz for a few hours before crashing. This is not good, as obviously caffeine makes you more tired in the long run, meaning […]

Comedy Hero

It became quite clear, fairly quickly last night, that I am properly shit at Beatles Rock Band. Or Lego Rock Band. Or probably any Rock Band of any sort. I have complained about this before (see HERE) and very little has changed since then, except that as well as trying to understand how to press […]

You’re Hot

Just did an interview thingy on Sunshine Radio. I’m aware how dubious that radio station name is – you know along the lines of special bus etc – but its local radio for Herefordshire, Worcestershire and other places that end in The Shire, like Middle Earth. Maybe that’s why they had me on. Actually its […]

To Work or Not To Work But Think About Work? What A Long Question

  • Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010
  • Posted by: Tiernan Douieb

I’m doing work today. Yes work. I was meant to be doing work yesterday but my brain completely gave in and decided that it had done enough work for a few days and after several hours of just starting aimlessly at my computer, struggling to even resend a tweet about a big dog that people […]
