Scratch ‘n’ Sleep

During periods of high anxiety I find that I often participate in odd unconscious nighttime activities. My new one appears to be sleep scratching. This is not in a DJ sense. I awoke this morning with nasty seeping scratches and gnashes all over my hands, arms, chest and legs. During the midnight hours I must […]

S.O.D.s

It is my final day to write the Standard Operating Procedures and Directions for that despicable company I slave for day in and day out. It is not finished. I am very stressed. My usual activities are a month behind and I shall be in trouble for not spending 24 hours a day working.
Well, I […]

Standard Operating Procedure

Arrrggghhh!!! You’ll have to excuse me today. I have to complete my major work-based project in the next couple of days. This magnum opus describing my day-to-day operation is now on its 197th page, and I’m not even half way though. If it is not completed by Monday then I face the corporate firing squad.
It’s […]

Body Rebellion

Something is happening tomorrow, something major. I am not telling you what it is yet. It is an adventure whereby I need to be one hundred percent fit and healthy. Not much to ask, I am fit and healthy and only suffer from colds a couple of times a year.
So what are the major things […]

Night Terrors

Periods in my life that involve extreme stress always lead to nightmares. These dreams share the same theme and are occurring far more often as my work situation spirals out of control. Nightly, I find myself sitting bolt upright in bed, trying to catch my breath, covered in cold clammy sweat, having just expelled a […]

Reality Time Shift

I literally time travelled yesterday. Yeah! It was brilliant. One moment all my clocks said 1pm and 15 minutes later they all said 12.15. I’d travelled an hour into the past. I don’t think it was just me either – the whole country partook in it’s own temporal back step. It made me feel a […]

Sweat-a-rama

Why oh why is it that every time I do an Overview at work my armpits leak? It doesn’t happen at any other time. I’m sat here telling other departments about how amazing I am and the incredibly interesting things I do and my pits leak like a ragging torrent. It’s most embarrassing, especially when […]

No Such Thing as a Free Punch

I did it. I spent two long hours in the company of various colleagues and my CEO. My initial feelings of bliss are rapidly being replaced by intense paranoia. Now I’m worrying that I said something stupid and everyone thinks I’m an idiot. We had to go around the table and give a short talk […]

The National Year of Worry Campaign

I’m dead good at worrying. It’s one of the things that I’m genuinely good at. I’m looking forward to the day it becomes an Olympic sport so that I can represent my country – I’m that good. Be it having a leak in my flat, not receiving an item I’ve ordered or getting from my […]
