Well, give or take 15 minutes.
But before you start bringing out the celebration streamers and/or vuvuzelas to celebrate my inevitable triumphant return, I must regret to inform you readers that this...isn't it.
In fact, there is an altogether simpler and, some would say, 'shallower' reason for this post. Something that a number of you can probably identify with.
I'M HAVING NEW OBSESSIONS.
I want a copy of Transformers: War For Cybertron.
I want an Original Skateboards Torpedo 40 Longboard.
I want to longboard.
Okay fine, I wanna learn how to longboard.
I want a pair of new 'everyday' shoes.
Seeing as how it's my birthday in a mere 2 months, 18 days, 22 hours and 52 minutes, I thought it might prove a little handy to put those into mention should any of you feel an overwhelming generous need to provide me with them.
And no, I don't mean all of them at once.
Though I won't stop you if you do have the overwhelming generous need to do that.
And yes, I am aware of this whole 'consumerism' trap I'm falling into.
I'm taking one for the team here. So what are YOU complaining about?
And even though I'll be on an altogether separate island than most of you in a month or so, need I remind you that a great singer once mentioned there wasn't a body of water that was big enough to come between me and you, with 'you' referring to the objects I've named above?
I'm just paraphrasing here.
So yeah, do your local oblivious ape a favour and drop him
Well, the only time this year.
Okay fine, THIS MONTH.
Again with the details, geez.
