Everytime you refer to your shameful past of freakishly normal activities I feel it’s a new betrayal all over again. Why do you want to hurt me, Tim? Why?

I can never see our love in the same way, everytime I look in your eyes I’ll just see teamsport, and the dreadful toll its taken on your humanity.

On the upside, I got a new TV today. We can all rest easy once more. Or at least watch latenight TV in bed eating jam with a table spoon.

Homemade fig jam is the shit.

p.s. By “still going strong” do you, in fact, mean “not updating much at all really these days”? *poke!*

I was looking at my bookshelf just yesterday and noticed my 1996 Roald Dahl diary, sitting next to my 1997 Paul Jennings one. I’m sure it’s full of terribly exciting things like “I got my school uniform today” and “Today I got my cast off”.
