Two things that have been constant in my life for years have changed today, my homepage www.shift.com is ending, the publisher pulled the plug after ten years of digital culture. Also www.iamcal.com has changed colour schemes.

What has changed in you life and made you uncomfortable?

Least I get a bunny(chinchilla?) to look at now.

I left uni almost a year ago now and had to start doing something useful with my life. I'm still avoiding actually taking that step, but at least i've redesigned my website :)

"rapid decline"

surely "decine" suggests that at one time the humour wasnt this crap

Changes in my life have included a break up with someone I was with for 10 years.

Living on my own for once in my life.

Dating again.

All very uncomfortable and scary.

good luck to you november. that length of time must be quite... disorientating. but arent you loving the freedom? I know I did, (not as long a relationship by half) but then I also bent my brain and body in half by taking drugs and drinking, so perhaps I didnt handle it very well after all... shit! that cant be right! um, I had lots of sex?

Ditto, the transition was shite, i hated the first six months, but fortunately now my big bastard company has completely crushed my morale through a combination of Windows, Word and bad vending machine coffee. All those people in fulltime work for more than a year, look at those new graduates coming in, and then remember how uncool they looked when you had just graduated and started work.

Not much changed in my life for a while. I got a dance mat for my playstation so perhaps I can look forward to a little better cardiovascular health.

I did buy stubbie bottles of Stella instead of cans the other day. That was weird.

I love the freedom, but I do miss the way things were at times. When I get like that, I go out with my friends and keep myself busy. Last night was my first night home in about a month. It felt good to sleep in my own bed.

So I guess you get like that a lot.....have you ended up with a lovely wardrobe of other peoples clothes and the impression of various sofas left imprinted on your butt? :)
