Has it really been 6 months?
Wow. Two posts since the start of the year. I’m awesome at this blogging thing. I mean, just awesome. I should get some kind of award. I wonder if there’s a “You Forgot About Your Blog But You’re Still Awesome” award?
ok, so I didn’t actually forget about my blog. I moved to America. Yes, yes, I know they have the internet in America (well, most of it I think). I’ve just been kinda busy. And lazy. Mainly lazy.
Note to self: update the About section. You no longer live in London.
If you’re wondering “why the hell did he move to America?”, the short answer is “fortune and glory”. ok, that’s actually the Indiana Jones answer, but I’m running with it. In reality, it’s for boring reasons like work and cost of living and the phrase “why not?”. Also, I heard they were having a recession and I thought I’d get in on that. I mean, there’s now more dollars to the pound! Awesome! oh wait… that’s not a good thing is it? Bugger.
So what have I been doing with my lazy arse for the past 6 months apart from moving to the US? Not a lot actually (that’s why it’s called a “lazy” arse – it doesn’t do much – really it doesn’t). Obviously there’s been boring stuff like finding somewhere to live and buying a car and all that stuff, but on the whole it’s been a cavalcade of TV dinners and a day job. Oh, and “settling-in”. People have been asking me how I’m “settling-in” for the past 4 months. They’re beginning to stop now, perhaps because I’m seeming like less of a foreigner by the day (my consistent use of the word “awesome” no doubt to blame).
Anyway, I have made a decision that his blog will lie dejected no longer. I’m making a concerted effort to update it “regularly”. And no, I don’t consider bi-anually to be “regular”. I mean, I’m living in the sodding USA, there must be something I can bitch write about on here.

Um, didn’t you forget about an important episode in which you played the American (read: real) version of Monopoly? We should repeat that. And are you back here yet? Or still visiting the motherland?

I’m in Blighty until the 17th, so I’m afraid Ameriopoly will have to wait.

So how are you settling in?
Seriously if you avoid us the entire time your in the UK, words will be had. Not sure what words, but they’ll be had. It’s sooo quiet in the office this week you should totally come by – and Wednesday is massage day, although we’re all excited about getting more time each since there’s just 5 of us, so we might not let you in on the action.
And for the record, you have a lazy ASS, arses aren’t allowed through US customs.
I want to hear more about your Royal Albert Hall fame. And you should come with me to proms on Tuesday or Wednesday night.
