Today was one of those days when the idea of writing a daily blog feels like a silly one, as there are days in everyone's life every now and again in which absolutely nothing happens. If nothing happened to me and I didn't have an obsession with not breaking the chain of a daily blog, then that would be fine because nobody would know that nothing happened. As I have opened with the fact that nothing happened, I feel torn between not putting the work in as most people will have stopped reading by now, or making something up. I've been writing a blog, (although not daily) since 2007, and it has never occurred to me to make it up before. My life could have been made to sound much more interesting if I had created a fictional life for myself, but alas I decided to stick with the truth.

Today has mainly been about Moonage Daydream, with the first edition ready to record this weekend, (working at the weekend again) and upload on Monday. My second edition will centre around the Aladdin Sane album, and the retirement of Ziggy Stardust. I've started writing that edition, and might rush to create what will be my third edition which will focus on the Pin Ups album.

Although I am up to date with the blog, and attempting to keep it that way - I'm even taking the laptop next week when we're in London so I can write about the Bowie exhibition on Wednesday - I am behind with the audio book version, which I will be slowly catching up with and adding the links to the blog.

Regular readers will remember that I downloaded my entire Twitter history from my old account, and rather than waste some of my good comedy material, I have dug out another list that won't mean a thing to anyone outside of Nottingham. What better way to pad out a weak blog?
