I seemed to spend a lot of 2008 using that line anytime I was unable or unwilling to explain why I was acting in an unusual or out of character manner. As much as I hoped that I would it has only been the past week that I've realised that I should and that it might be vaguely interesting.

There's one week left until I finally 'win', finally get past a really difficult period in my life. I suspect that as I blog what happened and why last years events occurred it will generate a number of comments such as "Why didn't you say?", "You could've talked to me, I could've helped", etc. Hopefully though most people will understand what it was all about.

It's my intention to start (and possibly finish) blogging about it from next month (Feb).

In other news, did you know that you can follow me on twitter? It's my latest fad and I'm enjoying both adding what I'm up to as well as following selected others. To follow me go to http://twitter.com/niceguyali
