An Unlikely Alliance?


I’m sure that two of my inner personalities have joined forces. I should say two more of my inner personalities, since Bernard (my nagging inner voice) and Fred (my not very pleasant driver) tried to take control of me a few weeks ago (or is it months – I can’t remember). I think they are still off somewhere in the dark and cobweb-filled corridors of my deep mind, in search on the needle in the haystack, that I asked them to find to keep them busy. My thoughts have been OK on the whole since I set this task up, but every now and then some negativity will pop up. Either Bernard is back, and is playing with me, or he has left a stand in, a Bernard understudy – Bernard Mark II, to keep me on my toes.

haystackI’d rather like to think that Bernard and Fred are still moving each strand of hay, one at a time as I asked, looking for the tiniest of needles… there are more than one (needlesneedle and haystacks) so I think they’ll be busy for some considerable time yet. I’ve typed this to reiterate the task to them… I’m pretty sure they can hear my thoughts even if I can’t hear theirs.

Talking of typing, remember Fingers? My inner typist who nw=ever makes any mistakes? I have a strange feeling that he has joined forces with no other than Tom the Geek (my inner nerd).

I’ve been wanting to write more of late. I’m still adding stories to my other blog, Talestream, in particular Clancy Farquhar scenes, but that doesn’t seem to be enough. The randomness of this blog (wellheregoes / Me! Me! Me me me!) is keeping my mind occupied by trying to think of something different to write about everyday here, but I feel that I need something else as well.

In work, I’m adding all kinds of multi-coloured tables and panels to documents that do not need them, and the recent posts in this blog have had a splash of colour or two. I’m also having the urge to … set up a website! Only a free one to start off with, to see how it goes. I know that this urge is coming from the geek within me because (now here’s a coincidence based on what I  wrote about in my post yesterday) I don’t know what I want the website to be about. Only a geek would want something that they don’t know what they want, right? How can I move forward if I don’t know where to go? One step at a time and see where I end up… that’s how!

This urge has been with me for a few days now. I’ll leave it until next week or so, and if it is still there, another part of cyberspace will be allocated to some aspect or other of me. With Fingers and Tom the Geek in control, what can go wrong? Can anything go right? The answers to these, and possibly more – many more – questions will appear in due course…

      Hi Bex, I’m sure they’ll be kept busy… and if not, I’m sure I’ll think of something else for them to do…

      When I decide what to do with the new site, I’ll add a link to it! And, speaking of links, there is a link to Talestream up in the top(ish) right-hand corner of the main page to this blog, or, you can click here! 😀

    questions, questions, … and no answers as yet, Sir Aquatom, I feel certain all will be revealed in the next episode…Confused? moi`? never!! … another website too?… I’ve wondered about doing some such, but keeping up,to date on WordPress and ignoring Blogger (I’ve not updated there for a while now), takes a lot out of you.,..ignoring summat ‘cos it plays on your mind something awful and wears you down… I wonder if it’s the pixies at work? …. You’re doing a fantastic job in keeping Bernard and Fred busy, that Needle’ll take a lifetime finding, so it’s just carry on regardless and head for the hills…. (darn pixies again!!) … .. Strewth the suns shining… I’m off to catch a few rays…. xPenx

      Hope you enjoyed your sun, Lady P, I had rain, but luckily I was stuck inside a freezing cold office (I think I’d have preferred the rain).
      Bernard and Fred are busy, which is the best for all concerned. I’m now waiting for my inner pixie to make an appearance… you know what these inner beings are like; they can get very confusing at times…
