For the last week I've been slowly migrating my blog from wordpress.com to a self-hosted server, using my web development skills learned in another life. Whenever I get to use things I learned in previous lives it's always a nice feeling. Nostalgic in a positive way, without wanting to return to those 'lives'. There is … Continue reading Tornadoofchaos.uk

Environmental Changes
Two stampy housemates down,Including the one from the room aboveβNo more creaking floorboards (for now),From the movements of replacement zombie; Replacement zombie??Yes, the zombie housemate about which I'd complained for so long,Who stumbled around full of alcohol, at all times,Barely alive and dropping food and drinks all over the place,They actually moved out around last … Continue reading Environmental Changes
Back 10 Spaces
Like when you find a long-neglected piece of clothing in the back of the wardrobe,And realise that actually it's not so bad at all, It is something you can enjoy again,A matter of perspective,And it's a happy reunion, an added bonus,Best of all it costs nothing. πͺ
Maybe I Could Write Something
I'm dying without writing,OCD is as bad as it's been,My days have lost their beginnings of meaning,I can't even remember what I was saying;(Struggling to begin anything); But maybe if I start small,And slowly build it up,I'm sure that I can adapt again,And manage to write something. πͺ
Doing
My brain has been so stale and obsessive,Stuck in a rut,So I'm going to create something,Big,A story of profundity,It's the best cure,And now I am doing,Once more :). πͺ
Proud Of Myself
Warningβ this is a lengthy impromptu monologue/summary of my last 2 years! I am sticking to Sundays for the long story posts, but this is a one-off. By all means read selectively or not at all! And thank you greatly for reading. I can't wait to start going through it all with the therapist. It's … Continue reading Proud Of Myself
Imaginative Freedom
What if I put those energies into writing and creativity?Writing as a way out of an obsessive OCD mind loop; This is not new, I've done this before,But then unfortunately I showed this blog to family,In a time of desperation; At first, I wasn't too bothered,And I was riding high on good feelings of no … Continue reading Imaginative Freedom
Free Radical
Free like the wings of the Orion Nebula!Shining rays of light into the universe, Free like lonely old Sedna,Roaming the outer fringes,And not in the least bit orthodox, Free,Freer than ever,Away from the storm at the centre, Free from prying eyes,Hidden from judging minds, Free to just be me,Once more. πͺ
