Anyone alive?

What's happening everyone? I may not feel or function like a person but I'm still alive and not out of the fight yet. I don't really have the energy to go into things in any great detail but I may be finally getting to the bottom of why the treatment for my terrible sleep breathing issues is failing. The good news is that I'm managing to improve things with my new knowledge and the bad news is that my breathing issues are orders of magnitude worse than anyone realised and my faith that said issu

I'm building

In an absolutely reckless fit of not being cripplingly exhausted and/or stressed, I started making something the other day and I kind of like where it's going. I also logged into my flickr account for the first time since like 2012 or something.

Quick Life Update

So as some of you may remember I experienced a miracle health improvement last year, and it's somehow been almost an entire year since that happened now, which is kind of frightening. Anyway I never posted an update so I'm going to do a quick one here.   The good: the working metabolism is here to stay, and has been literally life changing. Last year I really felt like I was hanging on by a thread, but the metabolism has given me physical stamina that wasn't there before, and is (or was) improvi

MNOG II

I've been feeling a bit nostalgic recently, and I now have a strong desire to play the MNOG II. I've never actually completed the game ever - I remember playing it when it was on the BIONICLE website in 2003 and getting virtually nowhere, then the game eventually getting broken, and then around 2011 I downloaded a fixed version of it from BZP and got quite far, except I wound up making some horrible mistake and getting trapped in Ta-Koro without some items necessary to finish the game, and I did

2017

It wasn't very good, but it was better for me knowing that Tekulo was called "SwagtronYOLO".

Quite A Scare

Dad broke his neck and his back today. Thankfully, thankfully, thankfully, his spine is intact so he isn't paralyzed, but I'm in shock about the whole thing.

To Make Sumiki Jelly

Burnt orange trousers.   And also a terribly creased shirt, but the fact that it's sand blue clearly makes up for that.

Rain

By golly, we are getting a lot of it.   And this is Ireland, where we're used to rain.

The best news in forever

I don't know how often I've mentioned this here, but if you follow me on tumblr you've probably heard me ranting about getting bad headaches every day. But hey hey hey, guess what? We finally know what causes them, and even better, how to fix them. It turns out the muscles down my neck and back have been badly screwed up (for a long time it seems) and have been restricting the blood supply to my head. So little wonder it's been so painful since forever.   But even better, it's quite easily fixed

Ask Brickeens

Seeing as these entries are a thing again, I might as well do it like I did back in 2010. So, ask me questions, and I'll hit you with a tennis racket.

Actual Life Update

I realised a while ago that it's been something like three, four years since I've really been active on BZP. 2012 was the last year I was actually doing things here, and since then all I've done is visit the blogs every day out of habit, as well as make the odd post here. It feels so strange because BZP was my internet home for so long, and now I hardly know what happens here.   It would be great to say that I've just moved on or have been doing things in life, but it hasn't really been like tha

Callout post: Sumiki

Didn't make his annual "DANGIT, WHERE ARE OUR TELEPORTERS?!" entry so the one I scheduled to post last night fell flat

The new best news in forever

So if any of you remember, I got a skin biopsy a few months back. I thought they would have been well done with the sample by now, but they're still testing it, and it's ACTUALLY SHOWING STUFF UP DO YOU KNOW HOW GOOD THIS IS!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?   It's complicated, but how I understand it so far: They've found my metabolism isn't breaking down fatty acids properly, which my doctor is excited about because apparently it explains so many things. Poor energy, dif

Dear Stomach

Please calm down. I only drank half a glass of orange juice and now you seem to be having a panic attack.

Dinosaurs

This post isn't actually about dinosaurs, I just wanted to see how fast Jess would get here.

I made a tiny MOC

I thought I'd make something for Sumiki's 20-pieces contest, so I threw this together a couple of days ago. It would probably be a lot better with arms and a torso that isn't a stick, but I got so carried away when I was making the legs that by the time I got to the torso I only had six pieces left.   ANYWAY gasp shock horror, I made something! I'm not totally dead.
