Trivia

I can't stop the story when it gets ordinary, as most of life is, and there would be lots of gaps otherwise.
I'll just start by saying anyone who takes the piss out of other people's work, just do your own before you criticise others, it's very easy to be an audience but how many audience members dare to go on the stage and perform themselves?

Anyway, wankers abound and I really don't give a flying fuck, life is tough enough on the earth without worrying about crap on a screen as well. Too much Big Brother, all their rude language has crossed into my mind now...
I'm working my way through the usual business we have to, I got my car's final MOT test today, which means I've got a year to get another one. I've had 7 years good service from it, which is a record for me, and as it'll be about 14 years old when it goes I'll survive. So far just about every part of real life has stopped me putting stuff back in the new kitchen, but as I unpack it there's so much crap landed on it every item needs washing before I can put it away, and tomorrow I hope is the day to do it. Unless a woman comes round offering me her body that is. So I'll be doing the kitchen.

On a general point, my blog is the tip of an iceberg of stuff I've been writing since I was 8. My dad gave me a desk diary he didn't need and I drew filthy pictures in it which had me cracking up with laughter, and when that was full I got another one. That was the start of a habit I've had ever since. And with no one in the house for a quarter of my life it keeps me even busier as if I can't talk I write it down, so many ideas I've covered in them have now been formed here. I have actually reached a point where after nearly 40 years I'm running out of things to put in my notebooks as I've covered more or less everything I can think of. But (hard luck guys) I haven't here as though I may have seen it all already, putting it on the internet is its first exposure to daylight as nobody's ever seen my notebooks before, though I expect the millions on sale in every stationery shop on earth means many people like using them, people would really challenge my sanity if they saw them. I obviously write this for the public so have to use just enough discretion to stop me getting beaten or locked up (or both). My notebooks have it all, though I have created some pretty funny stuff messing around in them over the years. By a typical Kingsbury coincidence I just came across a site of illustrated letters, which is a professional style version of the nonsense I do in my notebooks, and will hopefully inspire them to look a bit better in future. This one's the sort of thing I do, minus the collage element. I've now reached the stage where I want to share one so the ideas bounce off each other.

So I take no distance from any pride in what I write, as anyone should if they create something. But I won't ever go as far as rating it, that's not my role, and that counter is vital to every blogger who cares about what they do (and the number are growing if you look), as in any business, paid or not, we like to know it's not a total waste of time and effort. I would have carried on regardless, but knowing it's read is a whole lot better. But if I ever start believing I'm Jesus I'll be the one to say so, I don't need guesses from the gallery.

To confused readers, the coded messages here are for a comment that never saw the light of blog, but was read by me. It was pointed out without an explanation no one will know what I'm on about. Sorry for any confusion, and let's hope this bit gets read as well as I don't want to edit the post again...

After reading your blog, I have come to realise how much I am attracted to you. You are everything I want in a man. Please be mine?

I'll definitely consider it, but will have a difficult job as long as you remain anonymous...

I won't remain anonymous for long. One week from tomorrow, at the hour of the setting of the sun, I will reveal myself to you.
