Its been a while...
I haven't been to any gigs recently...always on the look out. But i did go to a small gig which my piano teacher, Bernie was playing at, down on the barbican at Blackjacks, which was cool.
The last few months i have been lots more active, walking loads more with my new walking aid. I have named it Roy...see what 've done there...Roy...Walker?! I also have another turnsafe at the gym which means i can get on all the equipment loads easier. I have been using the bike pretty much everytime i go up there and all the resistance machines, and the other day i got my head around the rowing machine.
Carly still comes around and does reflexology for me which is wicked.
I watched wimbledon as always, much to my disappointment, with Andy not winning...he did well...theres always next year.
Summer has been shit so far hey? the wettest ever, which is painful because i need my sunshine.
a couple weeks back i went on a random one to Maker ferstival which was cool. I bumped into some old mates which was cool....Naomi, Nick Markers and Sam....so it ended up being quite a social event! That same weekend I also went to Chris and Nicola's wedding reception and had a good catchup with some old friends...Kemp, Macca, Gooding and Philip McCrack - it was cool...got accused of being a pirate several times as i was on the rum!
My medication has been slowly decreased and I have come of some of the tiring medication which used to knock me out, so my stamina is much better now. I am now mentally preparing myself for my skydive, which will hopefully be sometime in September in Honiton, weather depending. Scary shit!
I have discovered a place in Seale Hayne called Hannahs, which is the same guys as Dame Hannah Rogers in Ivybridge, but bigger and better. Its a little surreal oasis in the countryside. I thought i would partake in some music sessions that happen down there..i have been chatting with a guy called Carl down there who is arranging some stuff for me to do. I have had this wacky idea to see if i could organise a disabled band for a bit of fun and a jam...watch this space. I have met several musicians there with varying disabilities and i'm pretty sure i can work with some of them. there is a guy there who wants to learn to DJ and scratch so I am hoping to be able to help him with that.
I am gonna cut this short now because i am off to do some rowing!

Uni?
It s not hardcore supersex.
Sorry about that. My main focus at the moment is my physical fitness...been going down the gym loads..about 2 or 3 times a week, doing lots of walking, which is improving slowly...i'm not tripping over my own feet so much now which is always a good thing. the gym is only 2 minutes away which makes life really easy.
About a week ago, I went to the mr scruff gig at the student union with Carly and Matt. It was amazing.. its just what i needed...met some cool people, but unfortunately didnt get any numbers - it was too loud. Being there made me want to get back into education and go to uni...meeting people, learning new stuff. I'm looking at music based courses...watch this space!
For the first time that i can remember, i now have a phone that i can actually use. the novelty of texting people still hasn't worn off. it makes it so easy to just give someone a prod now. its an iphone with siri, so i can talk to it and tell it to text or phone. sometimes it gets what i say perfectly; other times it comes out as gobbledegoop...but it plays a vital role in my social life.
I have decided not to see a psychologist every week now, as i felt not enough time passes inbetween sessions and so i have nothing to say!
The other cool thing which makes me more independent which i have at the moment, is an electric chair (with a really threatening horn - sounds like a kids toy). At first i didn't like picturing me in an electric chair, but since i have been getting used to it, I can do longer missions without anyone pushing me. sweet. the most amazing thing is, people move out of your way quickly!
Now, i can't wait till the weather is gonna warm up...sunshine and hot women...i'm in desperate need!
