This, that, and the other half-heartedly revisited
Writing things down enables one to move on. Well, it enables me to move on, anyway. I never noticed until this week when I finished writing something down in story form—pretty rare for me to do—and then noticed that the next day I wasn't dwelling on it at all and rather wanted to put it behind me and forget it.

Things I like
—dogs. They must be some of the most wonderful animals on the planet. I like them big, I like them small, I like them bouncy, I like them placid. I just don't like large dogs with big teeth jumping round me with their mouths hanging open hoping that I'm going to give them something to eat, and surely that's understandable? (I should probably mention here that I don't have a dog, and that a family member with more authority than I have (a parent!) is very against the idea of a dog in the house.) Read more...

Plant a sunflower
One of our neighbours had a beautiful little tree in her front garden, with 'had' being an important word here. Read more...

One verse
Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels. —Mark 8:38 Read more...

5 reasons why there probably is a God
According to the BBC, some buses in London will carry the slogan "There is probably no God. Now stop worrying and get on with your life" at some point next year. I know this isn't new news, because I read about the buses first on Tuesday, but I thought it gave me an ideal excuse to list a few reasons why I believe that there is a God. I don't present them to you as a water tight argument, because I've got passed the stage of worrying about God's existence and on to the stage of worrying about what he would have me do. Read more...

Six Random Things About Me
First, a quick acknowledgment to my sister, who did this first on her blog. Oh, and I wrote all the top five four days ago, but couldn't think of a sixth so didn't post. However, I finally thought of a sixth, so here you are... Read more...

But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we do all fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away. —Isaiah 64:6 Read more...

Attending the abbey
Yesterday we went to the abbey for evensong. The abbey in town is church of England; this means it’s the official parish church for the town where I live, and therefore it is the default church for us to attend. We hadn’t been there since Christmas, when we went for a nativity play service on Christmas Eve. Read more...

I came across this (http://www.typealyzer.com), which claims to Myers Briggs analyze blogs. Being a curious sort of person, I put my blog's URL in and it gave me this result: Read more...

Two things for which I am thankful
I know, I know: two things. That's a bit of a poor show...or it would be if I set out with the goal of writing a list of things for which I am thankful. However, I didn't—these two things are just things that yesterday I found myself really thankful for and still am really thankful for. So, here they are. Read more...

A post of links
I'm not actually sorry for producing this puny collection of links, because I think they're worth the time they take to read. Only two of them are even remotely depressing. Read more...

Talking of Christmas. And food.
It's almost Christmas; there's only just over a week to go. And this will probably be my last blog post until sometime after Christmas—I intend to have an internet break over Christmas and my recent rate of posting does not support the idea that I'll post during the remainder of this week. Nor does it support the idea that if, by some strange chance, I did post during the remainder of this week, the post would be worth reading. So this is it until after Christmas, and then I will think about writing meaningful posts and decide to write boring filler posts instead. Read more...

Hot drinks and alarm clocks
I have finally discovered that hot drinks and alarm clocks are not useless. It's taken me a while to discover this—maybe that I now know they actually have a use is an indication that I'm growing old—but here are my proposed uses. Read more...
