Resolutions re-made
I'm not going to make New Year's resolutions this year. I've spent today watching TED videos while making food / washing up (okay, and procrastinating). Inspired by this video (also below) by Matt Cutts, I'm going to make 12 resolutions, and do one small thing consistently for a month.

Proof!
Just went to watch the rest of something I had on record and started earlier, and got distracted and watched all of the film Proof as well. Does it sound conceited to say the main character (Katherine, played by Gwenyth Paltrow) reminds me of myself? Only a bit, only in certain senses... there's one scene in particular. I dunno, I could empathise ( Read more... )
