Awkward moment of the year award...
Older friend of mine who I look up to as a mother. Goes “Adam you look happy and relaxed again lately. You’ve been fucking around again haven’t you?”
Waits for ground to open.
“oh would you look at that. Your face is as red as your shirt”.
I walk off mouthing bitch and searching for another beer.

TMI
Not sure why, but I’ve been such a freaking man whore lately. Haven’t been like this in years. Probably cause of all the exercise etc etc.

Oh Sydney you fickle bitch!
After teasing us all Summer so far with Rain, and more rain, and mornings cold enough to be winter. You suddenly lift your skirts, and let summer arrive.
What a glorious day you are. And we are getting 5 more days of this, with no sign of rain! A dry, hot weekend?!
OH MY GOD HOW MUCH HAVE I MISSED YOU. PLEASE DON’T LEAVE US AGAIN.
As you can guess this weekend will be me, outside,...

Conversation I had at work just then...
Colleague coming up to me to tell me I’m wrong about something I told him yesterday, and he can prove it.
<cut to 3 hours later>
Colleague : Oh you were right
My response.
“please just argue with me for the hell of it. rather than rely on my 14 years of experience, and tell me how you think im wrong, only to find out that you are a retard, and wasted 3 hours fapping...
Anonymous asked: I would date you if I was local to you. You seem focused, and committed to what you want out of life. I think it's great, and very addictive. That more attractive to me than what anyone looks like on the outside.
Anonymous asked: You seem to be very focused at the moment. I'm proud of you. Don't let anyone get in the way of what you are trying to achieve.
Anonymous asked: You're an adorable bear, Why wouldn't you want to stay one?

Week 3 of 52
SW : 174kg (Sep 2010) CW : 145.5kg GW : 70kg
A bit up and down week. I’ve been screwed around by people, and I’ve decided to refocus again on myself. I find I start feeling needy in these circumstances, and not really strong enough to fight my inner child. It’s still healing, and putting it in situations that it’s not really comfortable is not good for my...

bobbyfreakouthour replied to your post: Oh I give up…
Dont date. Just be active in the community and meet people. Be social, ask to spend time with people. :)
Yeah that’s what I’ve been doing. My biggest annoyance is, there is a sub-culture in the gay community that loves bigger / bearded guys ie. bears. I have no problem with this in general, but I tend to attract guys who...

Oh I give up...
Someone just buy me a dozen cats and get it over with.

FML remind me when I get inklings to date again. Remind me not to.
Idiots.

Re blogging this. As I wrote it on Saturday night, while partly drunk, and I know quite well most of us (even the ones without lives) are online less on weekends :)

I have been thinking of writing this for a long time.
I’m 38 years old. I’m heading rapidly towards 40, and the first time in my life I feel like I have a sense of my own self. There has been so many people that...

Retro Sunday morning. I’m cleaning my place and Aussie rock from the 80s blasting through. Bands such as Inxs, Midnight Oil, The Angels, Spy vs Spy, Hunters and Collectors, ACDC, Icehouse, the list goes on. It’s been a long time.

Random personal thoughts, and an apology.
I have been thinking of writing this for a long time.
I’m 38 years old. I’m heading rapidly towards 40, and the first time in my life I feel like I have a sense of my own self. There has been so many people that have come and gone in my life. Lovers, friends, people who have made an input in more ways than I care to mention.
They have all said the same thing about me.
“That...
Need some ideas people. First photography assignment. “Photograph something from your house”. Interpret that anyway you want. Hmmm?

THE ANGRY THERAPIST: Is it possible for an ex... →
Re-blogging, cause I need to remember this!
theangrytherapist:
The question isn’t if it’s possible. The question is what are your feelings toward your ex-boyfriend and what kind of relationship do you want from him? If you want to keep him as a friend but still have feelings for him, ask yourself if it’s healthy to be friends. Can you handle being just…

I learnt a lot tonight. The guy running the course has pretty much done it all. His passion for photography is so infectious and I just want to learn more.
This is going to be a tonne of fun. Bring on next week.

SW : 174kg (Sep 2010) CW : 146kg GW : 70kg
It’s been an interesting week. I’ve dropped another kilo, which I’m really happy about. My feet are still giving me issues, but my new orthodics which are even more aggressive should solve this. The pain is completely gone in one foot, the other it’s moved from the arch to the back of the heal. We went in the right...

The rumours are true...
I’m staying in the place I’m currently living. The new owners want me to stay on. So staying in Newtown. For those who don’t know Sydney.
Newtown is about 2.5km south west of the CBD. Close to Sydney Uni and UTS. It’s traditionally been the place where immigrants first were in Sydney, and home to a very diverse population. From Poofs & Dykes, to Hippies & Urban...

Well that was a walk of depression...
As you can guess it’s already Valentines Day here in Oz. This morning on the way to work was the awkward reminder that I’m yes am indeed single, and you are going to have people trying to force feed you a steady diet of flowers, choclate, and all things love from every comericial concern.
I really wanted to just hurt some of them this morning. So for those of you in love good on you,...
