Old Pic
Hey, recently got a few old pictures digitalised (via a mate's mobile) . I almost never like pictures of myself but I actually like this one. Sadly it's from about 20 years ago, not much resemblance to present self. It was taken by my friend, Stetson . (thought j-t might be interested to know that )

non-calm hiatus
It's amazing how quickly the odd few hours of feeling right as rain can raise my expectations. This was a pretty stupid time to start a few conversations. My incipient replies to Pyraxis keep getting driven into the background by savage bouts of asthma accompanied/interspersed by hayfever, neuralgia and a few other unpleasantsymptoms .

more fun and games with the legal system

My vitamin D is still abnormally low. Fancy that. No chance to discuss all the questions arising , because the poor man was rushed off his feet (two of his ( Read more... ) -
Comedy of errors with E-mail
Please don't anybody rely on contacting me e-mail me, atm. I keep getting locked out of my account by Micocrosoft's increasingly excessive security measures, coupled with increasingly bad memory for passwords etc. * sigh * . Same problem extends to alternative accounts... with knobs on, because they all send security info to my Hotmail account ( Read more... ) -
Belatedly Observing Christmas
Bah. I've sat on the following post for more than a year now, cos I wrote it too late for chrismas '12, and forgot to post it in time for Crhrismas '13. Meantime, I've kinda drifted away from LJ again )MUST catch up soon!), so let's compensate a bit with a sort of ghost of my former presence. Besides, on re-reading it, I really like this one.
