i`ve decided i`m going to stay in tonight. i don`t feel like interacting with people and i don`t want to go out and be sullen and antisocial, i can do that in the comfort of my own apartment. the only person i want to see tonight is vic and that`s not happening.

but that`s not what this post is about, i`ve only been posting her nine months and i`ve gone from bitching about my shitty job and my long wait at the hands of bureaucracy, pointless post about nothing and quizzes and surveys to taking my writings here a lot more seriously in the last couple months.

since april 8 i`ve accumulated close to 700 posts and over 15,000 visitors, i want to thank you for putting up with me and i humbly offer my top ten post. i hope you enjoy them as much as i`ve enjoyed writing them and i hope to have you back next year.

10.please, thank, sorry, good day

wherein i opined on the lack of manners in society

9.and we have a tie, probably because these are related:

hipster pants are not for you and

my unsexy list

7.another tie, wherein the erstwhile blogger found out that writing here has repercussions

i did not have sexual relations with that woman

retractions and corrections

5.eos, rosy fingered goddess of the dawn

no particular reason other than i loved the opening paragraph

4.fucking like minx

in the midst of vic`s visit to trinidad, i still had people checking, so we decided i should post.

3.i used to cruise target

one of the first set of post when i started thinking about what i was writing, sums up some of the loneliness i`m experiencing now.

2.popularity, pissing contests and cries for attention

my contribution to the best of journalspace community.

1. my beautiful wordsmith

an ode to my wife, my joy, my happiness, my light.

i hope you`re happy with my choices, but feel free to roam around and let me know if i missed anything.

post script.

since starting this post, i`ve spoken to vic and she`s encouraged me to get out of the house. i`m off to see ROTK again and possibly attend a house party thrown by one of my co-workers.

thank you and good night. happy new year. peace, safety and blessings to you all.

i decided earlier that my contribution to the year end wrap up was to post my ten favourite sites of the year and a couple other top ten lists i found while i waste the day online

if i feel up to it, i`ll post my ten favourite posts for the year later.

sometime last week monet posed the question what would you do for a million dollars and i answered fairly honestly.

however i did come across a couple of things that i could find to do with my money if i were independently wealthy.

first of all no man is an island, but with enough money you can buy one. yes you too can own a island of your very own

and if you need to defend your island why not get an aircraft carrier or in my case, what better place for a data haven?

i was going to make a point about money and the great divide between them that have and them that have not. but i don`t have the energy right now, my less than 8 hours sleep is catching up with me as well as the arousal cycle is starting to ramp up again, thus draining the need blood from my brain into other areas of my body.

for my divinely endowed wife.

i love you.

here are this year`s short list and winner for the bad sex in fiction award.

i had planned on going home cause i wasn`t functioning at work, but down came the rains and as much i like it, i was in no mood to walk home in it.

or i knew there was something important i had to say.

[mounts pedestal]

today is world aids day.

do something positive.

get tested, buy some condoms for someone who is sexual active, march, participate.

HIV/AIDS is a global epidemic. it can happen to you, it can happen to some one you know.

fight aids @ home

[steps off pedestal]

trinidad is ranked 5th on the reporters without borders world press freedom rankings

that`s nice to know.

for the web geeks and page designers, the ultimate in 404s

the logical extension to the reality and makeover tv craze

share the love, blog your felicide here [loosed based on the principle that every time you masturbate, god kills a kitten]

the nerve unsexy list

in non-fun news

here`s a good reason for you not to fly jet blue.

and that`s that. now go out and have some fun.
