Join the mailing list! Stuff will happen!

So, the other day I started a mailing list, but somewhat buried its announcement in my Hobson & Choi #50 retrospective blog. So, here's a post of its very own.

There is now a mailing list. The form to sign up can be found in the left sidebar of this blog, or I'll embed it at the bottom of this post. Mailings will be infrequent, once a month at the absolute most, and I'll only use it when something of substance happens/is about to happen. You will not get an inane message every week announcing when H&C goes up, don't worry.

In fact, if all goes well, there will be some news/preview material regarding an upcoming "thing" out there on the list in the next few weeks. So yeah, totally sign up. If the embed form below isn't working for you, you can also click here to get to another one. Ta very much.

Misery Loves Equations

Apparently, yesterday was the most depressing day of the year. Blue Monday, they called it, which I thought was the title of a song. Apparently it’s all bollocks based on bad science anyway.

Point being, I didn’t notice until lunchtime, which was annoying, as I imagined it would have made for a good Feeding The Black Dog entry. However, I tried to write a “Blue Tuesday” day-after piece just now, and it felt kinda contrived.

So maybe it’s a good thing. Or alternatively, maybe it’s eight in the morning and I’ve only just woken up. Either way, I will be letting Blue Monday pass me by for this year. Hopefully this will mean a slight decrease in personal misery.
