Well, I’m at home for the next couple of weeks and while I’m not bored there’s not much to write about. I appear to be fairly gainfully self employed in the website design lark, at least for a bit, and while that’s great it doesn’t exactly make for good weblog fodder. I could write about my trials with the crontab or describe some neat CSS tricks or Movable Type hacks but to be honest after working on them the last thing I want to do is write about them.
And I think I’ve exhausted the postage potential of tea.
I could write about the election, I suppose…
Or not…
So…
Um…
Maybe I should have a look around and rip someone off see what kind of subjects other people blog about?
Any ideas?


Since it’s quite possible that you’ll be wanting to describe your trials with crontab/css/MT to somebody fairly soon, why not do it here?
Fwiw, the election has been exhausted pretty much, unless there’s something uniquely compelling going on in Kingstanding. Like it’s the Crime Minister’s concubine’s constituency, or something.
Ideas? I liked the shopping expose you started with the shoes. A really good round up of swop suggestions or other ways of blagging things so one doesn’t have to go and do the dreaded shopping would be interesting. Birmingham is so full of horrible samey shopping places, it’d be good to know how one goes about avoiding them. It’s not difficult here in Durham. :)
Must stop before this starts looking like a whole blog post I might have made on my own… but again, that’s somewhat circular. Crontab. Pff. :)
Although it’s the stuff I normally skip, I kind of think you should feel free to rattle on about website tech stuff if it’s interesting to you.
Other than that, stick with the small details of life. Or maybe a more in depth account of how you adapt to earning a living by sitting on your arse at home for increasing amounts of time. Might contrast nicely with your recent bout of constant walking about. (At least I’m assuming you’re stuck at home – I suppose you could be out and about working on a laptop in all the loveliest tea shops of Birmingham for all I know).
When in doubt, write about zombies. Works all the time.
Why don’t you answer a few more of those questions we asked you a while ago?
Oh yeah, I’d forgotten about them. Since the thing I was writing about the election has descended into a spiteful rant against the general population of this country it might be a better idea…
