You might be overdosing on Skyrim if...

You catch yourself humming a theme tune at least once a day.

You pass a rock that looks like ore veined rocks and wonder what you could mine from it.

You feel a strange urge to talk to anyone walking past you, just in case they have a quest for you.

You realise that salt suddenly became a rare and special commodity in your world view.

You get off the bus and start looking for your horse as you have just fast travelled.

You feel disappointed that there's no open fire cooking spit in your flat.

You start giving suspicious looks to people who admit they don't know what Skyrim is.

Happy New Tax Year 2012-2013

New Tax Year is upon us, time for some resolutions.

I will keep up with paperwork, almost a week in and it's going well.

I will keep all work related receipts in one place, I think I already lost two, oh well.

I will not leave my tax return to do on the deadline night with madwoman's glint in puffy eyes caused by two tables not adding up, well, I have until 31st January...

I will not go into depressive and ranty mood when I see the amount of tax I have to pay this time, I will instead go and poison a batch of heroin to get rid of some of tax-money-sucking pests.

I will not get into a state of nervous breakdown every time I get a letter from HMRC in its ugly recycled brown envelope, it doesn't mean audit is on its way the only mistake ever made was theirs and they did even apologise.

And to all my non self employed friends - be happy, your paid holiday allowances have just renewed!
