the blog that needed a nap

So one of the boxes of random possessions that I mailed to myself in Manchester just before I left Portland arrived today, and as I excitedly unpacked it this afternoon (having no idea any more what was actually in there) I took a bunch of pictures to post here. It was fun, but it certainly slowed down my day. Then transferring the pictures, selecting the good ones, exporting them, renaming them.

Now I finally have time to post them, and I'm realizing I can't fucking be bothered. The only reason I took them in the first place was because I knew this blog was in dire need of a new post. But they bore me, the pictures. It's just more of the same old navel-gazing crap I was doing all summer, only in a weird, inverted form.

Yawn.

So yeah, I think I'm done with blogging for the time being. At least here.  New England Gothic is on semi-permanent hiatus.

On a happier note, I think today's shipment may have delivered my Halloween costume ;)

Or y'know, I could always just go as myself.

Goodnight, babies. It's been real.

What of the new domain, eh? What will become of it?

You're just being selfish. Think of your public.

This is everyone except me's fault for not commenting enough.

I blame everyone except me.

Currently too busy having my head done in by a cold, but in general, yeah.

yeah :)

I suspect it will languish in the white space of registered, hosted, but unused domains until its purpose in life becomes clear.

I'm sure it can handle the existential challenge.

Will miss you yannow.

Tanks eh. But I'm not shuffling off the coil or anything! I'll still be around in the form of blog comments. (Wonder Twins, activate! In the form of ... Blog Comments!)

S'all good, trust me. You don't need to see any more pictures of my coffee mugs.

(yeah yeah ...)

No way is this the last we've seen of YOU! But you live so close now. I could be at your door by 10. Unless you wanna meet me half way.

It has been unreal...sleep well.

And remember, no matter where you are, and no matter what you do, the All Seeing Eye of the Cam will always look over you, and the all embracing tentacles of Fiat Nox will caress you.

Let us know if you ever make it to Vegemite Land..its much better than the Marmite World you would be getting now :-)

Have you ever heard of Norwich's famous mustard shop?

Because we have one.

[j]

Have you ever heard of Norwich's famous mustard shop?

I confess that I've not.

Because we have one.

Excellent. Will you come party with me in Manchester and bring some famous Norwich mustard?

I like mustard.

Especially if it's spicy.

[Adam]

I believe it's Colmans... I've never tried it, nor have I been in the shop. But I'm told it's very famous.

Come to Manchsters? It's a tad far. Maybe if you're good.

[j]

Maybe if you're good.

This may pose a logistical hurdle.

[teigan]

Oh, she's very good! Most of the time.

But y'know...

[Dev]

Lets all take a moment of silence... *tear*
