What is life without a list?

Must learn to be a doer not a note taker
must make my lists more comprehensive
must actually do things on lists
must not make endless lists
must get more organised but not with lists
must try and remember things
must write less lists

Childhood revisited or never left?

At the moment I'm having fun trying to fill gaps in my comic book collection. It's costing me an enormous amount of money, but it offers me a window into my childhood. Revisiting my earliest escapist haunts does make me realise I have changed; I have grown up. I don't know if it's a good thing though - I am not as easily pleased and I see politics in everything.

Otherwise great stories can be marred now by conservative threads or even the face of the old enemy - Ronald Regan. I am reminded how much I hated that man, so I guess I would have had the same feeling back then too, seeing him saved by Wonder Woman. When I was young I didn't doubt her and the flag-outfit seemed like a fashion choice....

Don't they know about Tall Poppies?

Yes we are all aware of the great things North American's have given the world... because they keep telling us. They even tell us when it wasn't them. Guess I can't say too much about that, being Australian - since we seem to like appropriating famous people from New Zealand (or anywhere really - all they have to do is touch down here).... Anyway, we already knew about the great things and we know about a lot of other things too unfortunately. Finding out wonderful things about ourselves as well.

Lost control anxiety

I can only vaguely imagine what having epilepsy must be like. It would make you want absolute control over every other aspect of life I imagine.

Escape is never enough

I love it when people say, as they always seem to be doing, "I watch too much TV".

How can you watch too much TV? Why don't they just tape it and then it would be video?

growing up

When I was young I said things like:

“No I’m not a feminist. Why would I need to be a feminist?”

I didn’t know….

Cursing

I sort of wish that the time I spent deleting spam could be taken out of the spammers life and given back to me....
