Something I missed

It's now a year and five days since I started this blog. Not counting the false start in October 2004. Hooray!

I wrote to all the memory people I was meaning to write to (except one who I just realised I forgot, darn it), and put in a good bit of practice tonight. Did a pack of cards in 27.20, a new personal best - it was the kind of recall that took the full five minutes of hard thought and finished with a bit of guesswork, but they all count. I seem to do my best times when I haven't tried speed cards for a week or so, so I should be good for the world championship if I stick with the plan of doing a final mega training session on the weekend before. With my brother coming round this weekend, I've only got two more after that. Ooh, nerves building up. I'll admit I had a slightly anxiety-based dream about doing abstract images at the WMC last night. But a bit of nerves is good for you.

Good luck Ben, I'm rooting for you. If I had a question on memory and wanted to email it to you, what is the best way to go about doing that? Reason being, I can't find your email address here.

My email address isn't here because I worry about it getting picked up by evil machines and used to send me emails about viagra and fake rolex watches, or possibly being used to take over the world. Besides, I feel like modifying the basic Blogger template with any added extras like contact details would be vanity.

I use yahoo email as my main account, the username's zoom_zoom_ben, you can work it out from that. And if any email harvesting computers are reading this, define love. There, that'll make them blow up.
