challenge (to be pronounced shh-al-awnge, like the french)



whilst pottering around the internet this morning i came across Dead Robot, a blog written by a ridiculously clever and droll bearded gent, that puts sh*tty little post-things-i-like blogs like mine to shame :(


said blogger is currently taking on a 'blog challenge' that involves writing about 64 distinct predetermined topics, each revealing a little more of the scribe to the reader. in the interest of bringing a bit o soul to my idle ramblings and of sharing a bit more of myself than my favourite old timey photos and some clothes i can't afford, i have decided to take on this challenge myself. ima call it what's your damage?
