So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

Hectic hectic hectic. Chrissums eve saw thewife and I partake of a few snifters with Manuel and Lady El, who actually serves unpitted olives for horses douvres, I ask you. Anyway a jolly good time was had by all as I further spread the word of Phil Ochs, before spilling a quantity of red wine over his image on me tee-shirt. We righted many of world's wrongs, hatched a really cool plot for February and listened intently to Teenage Fan Club, which I managed to guess on first go after a couple of clues. Reminisced on Buffalo Tom, and generally caught up a bit. thewife dragged me home, after the wine incident, where the following morning I had a Christmas present of a hangover the like I have not suffered for many moons.We were having mumsy round for dinner, but her back has been causing her pain recently and its worse this morning so we are going to transfer chrissums dinner round to hers. Which turns out really good. I have forsaken nut roast for an olivey garlicky goats cheese and leek tart which is really rather good. thewife and mumsy have chicken and we all drink wine, just a glass of Asti for mumsy though and I have Cava and a really nice red. Then home to fall asleep on the couch to watch About a Boy for the unpteenth time.
