I am starting to find myself boring and I’m somebody who never really experiences boredom but I have been here so many times. Yes the blog is back and yes I am feeling like I’m ready to stick to it and yes I have said all this before, boring right?
I need to be writing because it gives me the best distraction and distractions are very important when life is crumbling but more on that later. I share what I write because sharing gives me a gentle push into doing what I love to do when I have bastards holding me back but more on that later. I enjoy this because I actually enjoy and need to learn things. I am ready.
I cannot think of a better way to open a blog than with an introduction and especially because this is a personal blog. So that is exactly what this is, my name is Danny London and here I am…
I was born in the 80s but I can’t recall any of it because I was new to earth midway through that decade. Growing up was pretty cool for the most part. I was fortunate to be surrounded by a loving family that wanted the best for me. I am 40+ years old now and still I’m growing up, we never stop but I have a lot of catching up to do.
I have an interest in a lot of things and really my basic online bio sums me up…
Over sharer, renegade master, blogger, gamer, music listener, TV viewer, tofu eater, reader, Chelsea supporter, retired Tamagotchi carer and labelled with schizoaffective disorder.
Alright I do overshare and a few people in my circle hate that I do but I can’t stop it. I am in places where I feel a little more comfortable to be myself and online is one of those places and also why I am not on Facebook (they don’t get me there).
Video games are great but I struggle to play anything now because of physical and mental restrictions. I try every day and sometimes I can handle an hour but sometimes I barely handle ten minutes and I will always be upset with this.
I would be lost without music and I am aware of people saying “I will listen to anything” but I mean it and play a song for me and I will listen. I am in the process of moving from Spotify to YouTube Music and will get on that soon. If you wanted to know who my favourite is then I wouldn’t hesitate saying MF DOOM.
I try to watch things but I can struggle with that too. I watch all-sorts of visual entertainment and I really do, for example I’m currently being pressured into watching Married at First Sight. I try and watch a film a day because I need to try and have moments of calm.
I do not preach about veganism but sometimes I will speak up. I have been a vegan since 2020, yes the COVID days, and I miss nothing so it was the easiest and one of the best decisions I have made.
Hmm, reading is tough but this might be the one hobby I wish to do more of the most. I struggle because of concentration and unwanted distractions which brings me to the last thing in my bio.
I have schizoaffective disorder and you can click on that should you want to know about this mental illness. I experience a lot of the symptoms and looking after my mental health is a full-time job. Everything I have mentioned above is affected by this illness.
This post is longer than I thought it would be when I decided to write this but it could’ve easily been longer. I am more than all of this and I will teach myself that as I continue to write and share blog entries. I have set myself a schedule but I might have to change it like I do almost everything. I’m hitting publish now and going to try to handle all the problems that occur when I have shared posts elsewhere in the past.
