On The Future

The future is an unknown. "It's bright. It's Orange" (as the old mobile phone company ad used to be), it's exciting, it's scary, it's hopeful... it's too much and not enough.
Without 'Tomorrow's World' [Tomorrow's World - the home of the future]here to guide us and only 'Black Mirror' showing us the way, technology is increasingly a crazy, scary world. Just look at Twitter or Tinder or Cambridge Analytica.
As usual, I digress (and use too many parentheses) as I am writing to let you know about some plans I have coming up.
Plan 1: win the lottery - this is an ongoing scheme but one which may never be fulfilled as I don't play the lottery.
Plan 2: as usual I am looking for a new job. All past job searches have been scuppered because

• I am really bad at Excel
• I am "too honest" in interviews
• I don't have the right experience (this one has always really killed me. It's such a lame catch-22 that I won't even go into it here and now. Future post?)
• I don't actually want to have to work for a living

Plan 3: James and I are going to start a podcast. The USP of which is essentially this blog and so I have resurrected it and we'll be rich and famous (or just a tiny bit internet famous but not for getting "cancelled" or tweeting horrendous things) and then that'll show 'em (who?). 

Plan 4: I have ordered loads of fabric samples coz I want to do a thing. Maybe I'll show you said thing when I have made it. I get fancy notions and then nothing comes of them as I have the attention span of a goldfish which has ADD and no Adderall. 

So, the most important plan here is that James and I will be going on and on about some things so please listen out for that.
