The lies we tell ourselves…
“Hmm, this bath is so nice. I feel totally relaxed and not at all stressed about leaving for the US tomorrow. You know what would be nice? I’ll just read the first chapter of Order of the Phoenix to whet my appetite. Just fifteen minutes; I can stop anytime I want to.”

One hour later…

“CRAP! The bathwater is cold; I’m all wrinkly; I’ve wasted an hour on this book and I’m all stressed about the trip and I STILL CAN’T PUT IT DOWN!”

  2. I’m now 250 pages in. I can’t stop! This book is taking over my life. I’m not even packed and we leave in, like, twelve hours!


Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
