Armed with the past, and the will, and a brick

I'm Pete and I get funnier the less I sleep

Got this incredible Defeater tattoo inspired by lyrics from "cemetery walls" done by my apprentice mate Duncan Fyfe.

I like pop-punk

It's about the only thing keeping me going these days. I seem to have lost all interest in life other than a good song filled with pure teenage angst.

Whilst I was in London I bought my wee one a teddy bear and took it all over the place with me, so when I give it to her, I can show her that her teddy bear has been on holiday and that she can now take it with her all around the world with her too.

Another Fathers day spent without Olivia.

I have the best girlfriend.

My sister was watching teen mom last night as I was sitting chilling on my laptop. I often find myself drawn to watch as so much of it resembles what's happened in my life. Last night, however, I was particularly struck by the events as the divorced couple were sitting having a chat, where the girl tells her ex-partner she is now engaged and that their daughters were going to have a step-dad. In the entire time since Rebekah and I threw the towel in, it had never once occured to me how I would feel if Olivia was to get a new Step-dad. I couldn't care less about Rebekah having a new partner, it was the gut-wrenching thought of her having a step-daddy. It's now filled my head with so many woes and worries about what happens if he's better, or if she likes him more. What might happen if she grows up to prefer him and I get cut out all together? Its yet another new element to this saga I hadn't even considered. Needless to say, I just want to let out a big sigh and crawl into a corner to escape my own head telling me that I am screwed.

You're the best kept secret, rolling off my tongue, some say you're as easy as they come and I say, what a way for the ice to break.

This is my wee granny. She turned 83 last year but doesn't look a day over 65. When I was really wee my mum had to work with my dad in the family business a lot and so for most of my young years it was my gran that looked after me and as such we've always had a really close relationship. I'm so very pleased that she got to meet my wee girl and that she's been able to spend time with her and get to know her and fall in love with her. I know Olivia won't ever really remember her so I have documented their every single meeting to show her who my granny was when she's older and just how much she loved her. I've always been so proud of my Gran as she was once a concert pianist and one of the most renowned piano teachers in the UK writing books and lecturing everywhere. She's always had such a passion for playing the piano even when arthritis has crippled her and managed to bring her passion for music into the songs she plays. She once tried to teach me piano but naturally that failed as 5 year olds are so un-motivated. I'll always remember the holidays she came on with us to America, taking me around disney, her and my Papa just taking me out for dinner and being taken every friday after school up to the Avenue in Newton Mearns for a fresh orange and lemonade. Tomorrow I'm seeing my wee gran for possibly the last time, but she won't know it as neumonia and the medication she's on has left her in a coma. I just want my fresh orange and lemonade with my gran one last time.
