The Suicide Motor Club

30 September, 2016 James ForemanBooks

I couldn’t sleep, or rather, I fell asleep at 10:30 and then woke at 3, wide awake but exhausted, so with no other alternatives I read The Suicide Motor Club, a book about vampires driving[…]

Crummy

29 September, 2016 James ForemanNothing Much In Particular

La Serpiente was sick again this evening, after being clingy and sluggish for several hours. She asked to go to bed before 7pm, an unheard of development. I was kind of glad of this, for[…]

Don’t rage against the dying of the light

28 September, 201629 September, 2016 James ForemanNothing Much In Particular

La Serpiente stopped being sick some time around 3 or 4 this morning, having made sure we changed sheets, substituted Toffee Puppy’s doppelpuppy for its stained counterpart, and been through more pyjamas than I believed[…]

Taking your children running

24 September, 2016 James ForemanFamily

La Serpiente didn’t sleep well last night, coming into our room several times and foraging for attention. I slept through my 6:30 alarm and panicked at 7, trying to wake her up, get her dressed[…]

Empty headed Friday night

23 September, 201627 September, 2016 James ForemanNothing Much In Particular

This evening, brains shattered by the day, we watched a MotoGP race from two weeks ago, and then crawled away to bed. I made myself vaguely useful, attaching a new bell to La Serpiente’s scooter,[…]

More power testing

22 September, 201627 September, 2016 James ForemanRunning

This evening I went out to do another power test with my Stryd. Last time I did that was at the track by the National Stadium, but a friend of ours was in town so[…]
