There&#8217;s your bucket list, that list of things you should do before you die &#8217;cause your life will be better for going out and doing them; but there should be a fuckit list too &#8211; for all that stuff you think is a good idea but your life would actually [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m a little at a loss these days, dealing with the delightful problem of feeling better. Seriously, it&#8217;s a rather strange and foreign feeling after over 6 months of decrepitude. My current dillemma is one of how to rebuild my life, and into what? I have so many interests and things pulling at me, I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve had some really interesting conversations this week, many stemming from thoughts on the books we&#8217;ve been reading. I think the sort of books you read tells a story about the kind of person you are and what life is like in your head. Walking by my bookshelf the other day I noticed this little [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I miss that zip-zip sound corduroy pants used to make when I was a kid. Cords seem to have lost something from the ribbed pants of my stripey-shirted, yes-avacado-is-a-colour-and-it-goes-great-with-pumpkin, 70&#8242;s childhood. So, I&#8217;ve been wondering as I walk around, my pants more of a stuttered whisper than that zip-zip I used to love, what&#8217;s changed? [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s one hell of a wind out there today. As I watch the trees outside my window I marvel at their flexibility. The spruce branches are waving like undersea fronds and a poplar branch as big as my thigh still has the give to sway broadly as the wind gusts. As I sit cozy and [...]]]></description>
