Regular Urban Survivors by Terrorvision is a great, if rather dated, album, which I had a listen to the other day, much to my pleasure. Some good lyrics on there.
I'm stressed as anything. I'm not sleeping right at all. I think it's this whole job/baby/move house thing. Three life changing events in the space of a few months... great. Anyway. Let's not moan.
The baby is due in 10 days, which is pretty scary. It may not actually be here for two weeks after that, at which point they induce labour, but either way that's pretty soon. I think we've got all the gear we need, but I wouldn't say we feel ready in any way. It's quite scary, but in quite an unreal sort of way. As far as I'm concerned so far it's just involved Alison getting bigger and bigger and not feeling very well. I think it'll get a whole lot more real when the baby actually appears, and then the sheer magnitude of what lies before me will probably hit me pretty hard. Still, on the plus side, it can't be that hard, can it? Stay tuned to watch me eat my words...
We've found a house, which is good. Might help relieve the stress. It's in Atherton, just outside Manchester. It's a 3 bedroom semi at the end of a close, and it's very fancy. The people selling it have done loads of work on it and it's really well kitted out. We've made an offer and it's been accepted, so it's just a case of getting the survey and mortgage and all that stuff sorted. Good stuff.
I forgot something in my "thing I like" list the other day... Those new Cadbury's Creme Egg/Dairy Milk bars! They're delicious. Clearly a great idea in the world of chocolate. I salute the Cadbury's person who came up with that one.
That's about it for now... More when I get round to it. I still want to write about scary computer games and books by Chuck Palahniuk. Later people.
