I am having a few problems right now. The first and foremost on my mind is the amount of energy I have for moving Project AJD. I can’t quite explain it, but I feel like I am going to burst with the energy I have for this project, I continuously have ideas all day about it. I have a fixed plan in my mind about what it is going to look like now and I know that there are going to be two problems with it:
- I need more websites to add to the portfolio and I don’t know how I am going to manage this in the 65 days that are left to do so. Currently I have two. I am hoping for eight. If you know anyone that wants a website done let me know.
- The fixed plan that is in my head changes on a daily basis. I am influenced by almost every site that I see.
I have also reached my saturation point for television. It is easy to recognise this point. It is when you are still are still in front of the television at three am on a Sunday morning watching the top 25 most annoying TV programs. My brain having switched off hours ago but still not having the common sense to go to bed. I came to a sudden realisation at number 5 of the top 25 (which was list programs like the one I was watching, in-case you were wondering) I could be working instead of watching this utter crap. I know that I was watching it because it was on and not because I was interested in what was the most annoying TV program. My brain was screaming “I DO NOT CARE WHAT THE MOST ANNOYING TV PROGRAM IS!” however my body was showing a total lack of movement.
I decided at that point that my relationship with television was over.
So of course on Sunday when I got up the first thing I did, after I got some tea and toast, was switch the television on to watch country file so I could find out how the Healey family are getting on with their pursuit of keeping chickens. I realised that I had already floundered on my breakup with TV.
So, I have re-instated my breakup with television. I would like to point out the finer terms of this breakup.
- This breakup covers broadcast television except:
- Does not included broadcasts (live or highlights) of sport.
- Does include this years Olympics (Free Tibet)
- Does not include DVD or DVD box sets
I think I should be able to live without kn0wing how the Healey’s get on with their chickens. I am looking forward to getting through some of the piles of books that I keep meaning to read instead and investing even more of my time into Project AJD.






I feel your pain. I too have been drawn into late night encounters with the television and a breakdown of the 100 Best Songs from the 90’s. Granted, the first time I watched such a show with with a friend, it was on in the background and provided a nostalgic moment or two to accompany our wine.
However when you’re watching the 3rd show of this nature (yes, Top 100 gems of the 90’s, Top 100 Song of the 90’s, and Top 100 Pop Icons of the 90’s) one needs to ask “is it time for bed?”.
Part of my new regime is to stop scanning the freeview in hope of something to watch and go to bed at a reasonable hour. Oh, and leave the wine out of the equation for a week or two!
Good luck, and as with any break-up, be strong. The chickens will forgive you
