Posted on February 12, 2018 by Hatboy

Day 43. 95,223 words. Crud, out of time for today so I won’t get a chance to review the movies we saw over the weekend. They were pretty cool, though. Yesterday was a bit of a pain in the balls, … Continue reading →

How is it still only Tuesday?

Posted on November 28, 2017 by Hatboy

Made the coffee

Posted on October 24, 2017 by Hatboy

Posted on October 2, 2017 by Hatboy

Meeting new people

Posted on August 24, 2017 by Hatboy

Yesterday, I was once again amused to find myself face-to-face with some people on Facebook who I’d never met, never heard of, and who clearly had no idea they would be meeting me either. The subject was “Australia Day”, which … Continue reading →

Interlude: Sick, Tired, Bummed, Uninspired, and Suffering from Blue Ballpoints

Posted on February 20, 2017 by Hatboy

Ugh, must be Monday. I’ve been dealing with a niggling cold and sore throat for the past few days, which hasn’t really gone away yet. Today, it’s been enhanced with a pounding headache. Our car’s still out of commission until … Continue reading →

Interlude: Norovirus

Posted on January 16, 2017 by Hatboy

Yup, it’s well-named. Feels like there’s a giant bovine dumbler stomping around in my stomach. Kids have been down with it since Thursday, Mrs Hatboy and I came down with it yesterday. Fortunately I managed to get a couple of … Continue reading →

Interlude: Guuuhhhh

Posted on January 3, 2017 by Hatboy

Wound up busy again today. Not that I didn’t get time to write anything – I did get time to write a bit – just nothing I can put up on the blog right now. “Short” story #4 for the … Continue reading →
