Hi. I’m finally posting, which feels ironic, given I still owe MySpace a status update.
I’m Richard. Northern Irish, awkward geek, and professional overthinker with questionable social media skills.
Please lower your expectations for updates. Let’s see if I can actually keep up this time.

Got my flu jab. No sticker, no lollipop, just rain and regret. Also, face fuzz (lol) is out of control… posting so future me remembers to trim.

Not to sound dramatic but… what am I gonna wear? 😱
Not sure if it’s Sunday scaries or just new job jitters - either way, big day tomorrow. Fingers crossed it all goes smoothly!🤞🏼

Starting the day with the usual heartbreak: realising a box of Crunchy Nut barely lasts three bowls. 😩

Wait… did the clocks change and no one told me? This is how people get left behind in movies.

Technically my last day yesterday - even though I’ve been off for over a week 😅 Handed in the laptop and now I’m chilling until November when the new job starts. Open to suggestions on how to spend this free time!

Your boy’s had a bit of a week. Third round of redundancies at work in five months - I dodged this one, but had already decided it was time to move on. Got something new lined up, and three glorious weeks off in between. I plan to sleep like it’s my full-time job. 😌

If anyone knows the safe daily limit for sesame seeds, do let me know. I may have overshot it with dinner 😅

Work’s a circus right now - too many changes, job security feels like it’s on life support. Love that for us in tech. 🙃 Thanks, AI.

Morning folks. Heading back to the gym this morning after a short break. Let’s see if muscle memory is a myth. Hope you’re all good! ☺️

Took a step back to celebrate life - birthday, best mate’s stag, and a little digital detox. Edinburgh’s still got a hold on me, even 13 years on. Feeling recharged and weirdly grateful. Thank you for the birthday love! 🥰

Cheers to 38… because nothing says ‘thriving’ like comparing knee pain with your friends.

The face of a man powering through one more workday before the good stuff kicks in: haircut (long overdue), birthday fun, and my best mate’s stag in Edinburgh this weekend. Big week. Let’s go. #mcm

I usually hate them, but today has been semi-tolerable.
Gym done earlier. Now it’s time to fake adulting through a marathon of Teams meetings. 🙃

Anyone else got a splitting headache today? Is it the weather or am I just malfunctioning? 😵💫

Leg day this morning. Praying my life doesn’t involve stairs, hills, or standing up too fast for the next 48 hours. Send help… or a forklift.
