Catching up

It's seems every couple of posts I claim that I'm back to blogging regularly. As I only just remembered I even had blog after a three year break, I'm not convinced I'll keep up a regular outpouring of humerous brain dumps. 

So without making any claims that this will be a weekly or fortnightly thing, there have been a few things that have happened since my last blog and I thought I'd catch you up:

1) We had a baby - but he isn't actually a baby anymore. He's a 'big boy' now. I'm sure there will be more details in future posts but let's be clear, I don't actually like babies. I love my baby and I don't wish other babies any harm. But you definitely won't ever here me talking about how much I love babies. 

2) We bought a house. This was mainly driven by having a baby. We decided to buy a house with a garden. Something we couldn't afford to do in the inner city, so we now live in the suburbs... I miss inner city living but living where we do now has some advantages. Convenience after late night drinking binges isn't one of them. 

3) I haven't been out much since having a baby. So the convenience issue mentioned above is rarely an issue. This point isn't an update on what I've been doing since my last post, more of and admission of an omission from my life. 

4) I don't do stand up comedy any more. Again, mainly due to point 1 but I really haven't missed it. Turns out I liked being on stage but hated everything associated with being a comedian more. I got a proper job, earn more money than I ever did as a comedian and actually work a lot less than I ever did. Plus, the bank wouldn't have been as happy to give us a mortgage if I didn't have a proper job. 

5) Did other things that I'm sure we'll discuss later. 

Speak to you again soon... Maybe.
