Is the juice worth the squeeze?

I've been trying to decide on whether or not to write this blog or not for some time. I have too much in my head to tweet... But not enough to write a length blog. Quite the conundrum. Anyway, anyone who knows me well enough, or even barely knows me, will know that I can be quite neurotic and high maintenance. I'll over think the smallest details of something that matters to me. Although, now this is what perplexes me, it's normally only in regards to love/lust and men. If I like someone, I'll act in a completely different manner to my usual self. Normally I'm a laid back sorter guy, with few hang-ups. But when I like someone, I'll analyse the amount of kisses on the end of their text, I'll think about all the possible meanings of one of their texts. I drive myself mad doing it, but I cannot help it. It's something that's been with me since I started this 'gay-thing'.

I get attached quite easily. This isn't ever a good thing, as normally, it ends in heartbreak. I'm a romantic sorter guy, with traditional values, I try not to sleep about. When I'm with someone, I won't cheat, etc etc. I don't know why I get attached, but for a while, I enjoy it, I enjoy having someone to miss, having someone to look forward to seeing.

I'm happy to be like this, I can endure the mess that I become, the erratic behaviour and mood swings. I ask my self is the juice worth the squeeze.

Topics...

No no, not the hideously disgusting sweet that was recently ejected from 'Celebrations', I'm talking about the topic of this entry! I had no idea what to write about! If I'm honest, I still don't. So this is going to be a medley of various things, I expect I'll cover Twitter and other social networks, Love, Life, and my infuriation at both the technical and the mechanical worlds! If any of that strikes you as 'not your cup of tea' then please, discontinue with your reading, go and find yourself a cup of tea, no doubt it will be a cup of tea, put your feet up and try not to let your imagination run into contemplating what this blog could possibly have that you're not interested in!

Twitter and Other Social Networks
I've got to admit something to you all...All two of the likely readers...I used to be Twitters biggest Foe. "It's never going to be as big as Facebook," I said, "So what, Stephen Fry is on it...What's so good about that?" I thought. I was wrong. Twitter has transformed my life. When I first started using it, I had two followers, and was following more celebrities than a restrained freak, with a complex. I came to realize, twitter is something which you only get out of it, what you put into it. If you don't post anything, nothing gets replied to, nothing gets retweeted as a point of interest, no one '#FollowFriday's' you, and you don't get any followers beyond those you know from MSN, Facebook, Gaydar, Match.com, Etc etc... Where's the fun in that? What's the point in wanting to be a part of something, if you're not going to give it a good go? There isn't one! So, from a twitter convert, too likely other twitter converts, I give you this message, rip the plaster off, jump in the pool without testing the water... You might discover something amazing!

Love/Life
I thought I'd combine these topics as the all go hand in hand like a gay and his hag through the canal streets of Manchester. My life has taken some sharp turns, some gradual revelations to the left, to the right, and now, it's soaring along the mountainous roads, gaining risk, enjoyment and beauty. I'm working hard, loving my job, getting places with it as well, being noticed for my achievments not just in education for once. Exams in Education shows what you've learnt, where as work, displays where you've grown. I'm working hard, but as I said, LOVING it! Really, I am... Love, well, less said about that the better!

Infuriation at Technical and Mechanical
My Car broke down, I had to take out emergency RAC, which irriated the hell out of me, as it cost an extra £100, just for them to come out that day...tssk. They couldn't even fix it at the roadside:( Then I had to fork out for the Earth Wire to be fixed, which in all fairness to my little clio, didn't cost as much as I was mentally preparing myself for. THEN My laptop goes and fails on me. Stupid Virus', which the computer shop took three weeks to fix because it was a hum-dinger of a set of virus'!

Anyway, I've rambled enough! My next blog will be a little more structured with any hope! Enjoy yourselves!
