Out there, somewhere

Listening to Over And Over from the album "The Warning" by Hot Chip

Seasons greetings one and all, except you and you and you.

Had a good christmas.  Rich bought me a PSP which initially didn't work but I worked out why (it took more than switching it on, ok :) ) but as he didn't realise a memory stick is a useful thing in PSP world he didn't buy one.  Bought me LocoRoco instead.  So I try and play it and the firmware isn't recent enough so I connect (wirelessly) to the internet to download it and it tells me there is no memory stick to download update onto.  Argh.  I was annoyed.  So I've had to order one: went for a 2gb card so I can rip all my dvd's and watch films and episodes of Futurama on the train.  I can finally upgrade my phone tomorrow.  It's about time.  I'm getting a flashy one.  That's all you need to know.  Back to work proper tomorrow although I've been working from home today.  Yes really.

Whilst in Swindon I got to catch up with Neil and Charlotte and got to hold their beautiful daughter Amelie.  She is incredibly gorgeous and didn't scream when I cuddled her.  In just under two weeks I will be 36 and the same age as my mother when she gave birth to me.  I now believe I won't be in a position to have children and I really don't know what to do about it.  I feel really quite upset about it.  I really hope this putting my life on hold for someone else to realise their potential works out ok because at the moment it's really crappy.
