Well hello
it's been a while since anyone's been around these parts, so it's nice to hear from you. I really enjoyed writing that poem and it's my intention to write some again soon, but soon is one of those things that just gets further away.

lol
Hi
Man of Legend Posted Jul 23, 2003
yeah, can imagine insomnia's a raw deal, i suffer from the opposite problem, i'm constantly tired, dunno why, could be something to do with the crazy hours at work. I wish there were more hours in a day so i could sleep, but knowing me i'd end up doing something else with them. All I can do is wait for retirement!!
As for the next peom, hmmn, let me muse...
Hi
~~Insomniac.Vampire~~ Posted Aug 7, 2003
Hey Leg-end,
i never said i wasnt tired, just dont sleep much, worse now with this weather!
why you hoping for retirement? if you dont like your job why dont you just look for something else? but then who likes there job anyway! lol
i heard a good poem the other day, could put it in here if you'd like it, no room on my page
Hi
Man of Legend Posted Aug 15, 2003
Even
Can't sleep? in that case just relax, if all else fails pop enough Nytol to fell elephants, and don't wake for days
Get another job? the less said the better, read my journal for clearer thoughts on this subject.
feel free to post poems here, i need the distraction from 'real' life.
bit drunk, going to listen to music before finally succoming to the darkness

Hi
Man of Legend Posted Aug 17, 2003
HEHE, yeah Dan is my real name, Man of Legend (MOL) is an ironic statement, one of my mates nicked it off me and i don't think he totally got the joke!
ahh it's in an e-mail, i presume you will be copying and pasting, not typing it in Please make sure it is not copyrighted before you but in here, i had a bust-up on this subject before when i tried to make some more people aware of the beauty of prog rock lyric's. This would have never happened in douglas's day (grrr)!
I have a mate who's sleeping pattern is determined by nytol and proplus, dangerous way to live if you ask me.
Anyway it's about time for me to play footie in the park, with bags for goalposts (don't need jumpers in this weather)

~~Insomniac.Vampire~~ Posted Aug 18, 2003
Hiya Dan,
yeah i got it now lol MOL yeah
i agree with you, your mate must be crackers, im suspicious of all pills even paracetamol lol
oh damn i keep forgetting about that poem, i cant cut and paste it as im not on pc, ill have to write it out..it'll be in this thread and ill not say anything if you dont lol im not sure whether my friend wrote it himself or saw it somewhere, actually its very good so i dont know
footy in the park? i thought you was from this country? dunno where i got that idea from but if you are i thought it was a strange time to be playing, in the dark LOL
still have to go take a look at your journal, geez im so scatty id forget my own head!
hope your well,
take care
Hi
Man of Legend Posted Aug 19, 2003
Evening, well it is to me anyway.
What country are you in, i'm in the UK, but there will probably be some confusion over when i posted that because I wrote it about mid-day-ish, and the server wouldn't let me up date it, so i copy and pasted it into a doc, and then posted it later when the servers where better
anyhoo, thanks for checking out my journal and stuff, and your positive comments on my work. I think i just need to find the time to write again, i'm the absolute worst at setting time aside for regular things. It's also quite difficult at the moment because my room is being re-decorated, but that should have all settled down soon!
it's knocking on to 1.30am now so i'm gonna push off to bed.
speak later
MOL
Hi
~~Insomniac.Vampire~~ Posted Sep 3, 2003

take care
Hi
Man of Legend Posted Sep 17, 2003
Hey
Been a while since I posted, hope your holiday was good, i think i could do with another one soon, maybe october or November, might take two weeks and do very little! That is if I'm still working for PC World, and I hope I'm not, had an interview on Monday, and it went well, all i can do is hope.
Other than that, boring really, still found no time to write anything, although i'm finding a lot of time when i'm bored and could do it, but i don't have a pen in my room, cos it's STILL getting decorated. It's all MFI's fault I've been waiting for furniture for a over a month now, darn it (I want to say something stronger, but you don't know who's reading).
right i'm gonna stop whinging, altho i am rather good at it
take care
MOL
Hi
~~Insomniac.Vampire~~ Posted Sep 18, 2003

life is pretty boring here too at the moment, i need some fun! hey you know you could always throw in a if 'darn it' dont cut it lol
that was whingeing? lol boy you got a lot to learn!
i looked for the poem i kept going on about and i think its gone im afraid sorry about that but ill look for something else to leave you

take care

Man of Legend Posted Sep 19, 2003
Hey

MOL
Hi
~~Insomniac.Vampire~~ Posted Sep 20, 2003
Hello Leg-end,
since your offering can i give you a dead arm instead? lol
way to go Dan! congratulations Leg-end! here have some i think you earned it
lol
so whats the other half then?
oh guess what? i found it, it was in my other email, i missed it cos i couldnt remember what was on the subject block..as i said its from a friend but he didnt say whether he penned it himself.......
Who Are You?
==========
Who are you? moving across the sunlit sky, moving unseen as you pass me by.
I am a zephyr, a gentle breeze, unseen, I pass you by with ease.
And who are you at the dead of night, who passes by just out of sight?
I am the guardian that watches over you, who keeps your soul and keeps it true.
And who are you? where do you go? just like the breeze you never show.
I am today, then im gone, i have no name, just call me John.
So who are you? i must remember. Did we not meet just last September?
I am him and him and her, I am all things great and small, do you not concur?
So who are you? i again inquire. are you my Lord, my master, my sire?
I am the day, i am the night, i am your dreams as they take flight.
So i am you and you are me, put both together, we are we?
++++++++
hope you like and it was worth waiting for lol i like it
well you have a good weekend and well done!
take care

Hey
It's been a while, but i'm still around, just. Just to sort of say new job's groovy, living life in a faster lane now, although temporarly slowed due to lack of car (i hate them. love driving, hate cars, go figure).
I did like that poem, it was worth the wait. No to the dead arm, I have this adversion to pain, it hurt's!
Thanks for the drink, i've added it to the huge amounts i've had since i was last here.
anyway going to rattle along again now
Speak soon
MoL

Hi
~~Insomniac.Vampire~~ Posted Nov 26, 2003

Hi
Modesty, not a stong point of Sheffielder's when they are talking about their city. There is something here for everybody, and the house prices aren't getting wholly rediculous, YET!
Pubs?, easy, The Red Dear, just off west street, is my personal favorite, all the real ale's and stuff. Most of west street is alright, but be careful of 'flares' heard it can get a bit hairy in there. Clubs, we have the world famous Gatecrasher for the townie types, plus other hell holes such as kingdom. However, if you like music with a little more kick, there is the Corporation off of devonshire street, where I sometimes grace with my presence. Other good things about Sheffield are Henderson's Relish, Vally centertainment (cinema's and stuff), and if you like a good curry, the 7 spices on west bar is one of the best. In fact the only bad thing about Sheffield is the road out!
The car is alright ATM fingers crossed, touch wood, etc.
anyway hear from you soon
MoL
