Proofs And Presses

Image: Colin Galbraith

I’m shattered. My eyes hurt, my head is sore, I have that run down snivelly thing going on and I want to sleep for hours while at the same time go out and let my hair down. Maybe I can do both. Scotland are playing England at rugby in the Six Nations Championship [...]

Mr Forgetful

I was shattered going into work yesterday. And I was in a bad mood because of it. Missing my bus didn’t help either. Fucking Lothian left early. Three coffees in the office didn’t really help move things along either, and I spent most of the day with a sore frontal lobe [...]

Poshing It Up At The Usher Hall

Image: Pure Music

I struggled to get out of bed yesterday and was late for work by a few minutes as a result. I hate being late, but I think the lengthy shifts I’ve been putting in has started catching up with me. I could do with a couple of days off mid-week just to redress [...]

Slumped

I found myself in a right slump yesterday. I think the combination of my recent sun stroke with subsequent loss of appetite, and the ill-timed deaths of a close friend and family member, could all be taking its toll. I feel exhausted, depressed, and generally quite down and deflated about everything. Perhaps my [...]

Interviews And Promo Ops

Image: ChelseaMclean.com

I spent most of yesterday trying to lift myself out of a lag. My back was sore, my eyes tired, and I just felt like lying down and never looking at another computer screen ever again. But, STELLA won’t sell itself so it’s on with the show and on with the promotion wagon!
The weather [...]

Exhausted

Exhausted.
Up early and working by 7:30am on The Company’s network. It was almost 3pm before I was finished. A full day in other words, and it wasn’t the most stress-free of occasions.
By the time it (part 1) was over, it was almost time for the Grand National at Aintree. I had a tenner [...]

Crisis, What Crisis?

Back to work today and my, what a struggle! After a weekend of chilling with my mates, ridiculous drinking games, and wild debauchery, kicking my gears into first only served to rattle my kidneys and tire me out. It took several bottles of water and a very early night to set me straight [...]

Not Very Interesting

Image: sillygwailo

Thank God it’s Friday. Good moods abounded early on today, with several parts of the universe experiencing extreme levels of excitement and fun. Gratefully, I was happy to be in the middle of one of them.
Not that anything particularly exciting happened during my day: I got up, wrote and drank coffee, went to work, [...]

Wiping The Slate

Image: foundphotoslj

I was a wee bit tired this morning but managed to force myself out my nest. As I sat with my coffee reading my morning email with BBC News 24 playing quietly in my office, dawn broke. It was the most amazing display of pink, yellow, white and blue across the sky I’ve seen [...]

Buzzing

My head was a veritable hive of buzzing nonsense today. After the intensity of last week’s Muse Conference, a high load of freelance work, and coping with a busy day job, I ended up sleeping in slightly this morning. Waking up to rain and gales battering the window didn’t enthuse me much either, so I [...]

Glasgow In The Top 10

Only Wednesday? Or should I say: only Wednesday …
The last two days have been hard work, exciting, fun, intense, pressurised – long. But I’m coping, and coping well. No complaints, just an awareness that the 19 hours I did on Monday, the 15 yesterday, and the 16 today, only takes me to the forty three [...]

Oddness And Loveliness

An odd day.
For some obscene reason I’m suddenly finding it difficult to rise from my kip in the mornings of late. It’s not like I don’t get up; this morning for instance, I got up later then normal and after ten minutes went and lay back down again. I never got up again until an [...]

The Number 5

I was out for the count by around half past nine last night. As Gail was heading out for a drink with her sister-in-law, after dropping Laura off at her pals for another sleepover, I found myself nodding in and out of sleep with the TV playing in the background. I could hardly keep my [...]

Not So Tired

Got a good sleep last night and felt 100% better for it this morning. One cup of Douwe Egberts and a cool shower saw me back at the top of the world.
As I look over my GDR review for July, I keep giving myself into trouble for not getting much done this month. But I [...]
