… I am so close, it scares me. That was the quote that was on a t-shirt I bought on holiday once when I was a kid. In truth, I know I am not perfect – but then who is? No one I guess, yet some people, while perhaps acknowledging their own imperfections, seem unwilling to accept that others may be less than perfect. Alexander Pope said ‘To err is human.’ Now, he would probably say ‘it’s human to fuck up’. I fucked up. How? Well, trusting an ‘ex’ friend would go their own way, allow me to Read more […]

A 100 Reasons why I HATE Twilight.
January 27th, 2010 
madnad Actually, there is only 10, but I figured a 100 would get your attention. I am sure if I could be arsed to read more than the first two books I would probably make it to a 100 no worries. Do feel free to add your own in the comments. I also realise I have ranted about this subject before, and that what I might be doing is engendering you with an overwhelming desire to read it (if you haven’t already) just out of curiosity, but I am just sick and tired of it just taking over everything. My inbox Read more […]

Michael Sheen no longer a twitterer
November 20th, 2009 madnad So, our man Michael Sheen has confirmed that he has left twitter, for the time being at least. After toying with the idea for sometime, I have taken the decision to remove his twitter feed from the front of my fan site. I must confess, I am devastated at the news but at the same time, appalled at the criticism that he has received on twitter from so called fans. When I started following Michael Sheen on twitter, he had less than 50 followers. At the time, I had been getting increasingly frustrated Read more […]
Twilight?
May 11th, 2009 madnad I realise the Twilight saga is very popular, but I had never really felt drawn to reading it. Partly because my time dedicated to reading had been reduced by college, revision, then the website etc, and what time I did have I was caught up in the very addictive Mark Chadbourn novels. However, some weeks ago now it was announced that Michael Sheen would be appearing as a vampire named Aro in the film of the second book in the series, New Moon. This has prompted me to give the books a go, and I Read more […]
Bank Holiday Ahoy!
April 29th, 2009 madnad The first of two long weekends is looming, and I confess, I cannot wait. I have not got any plans so far, but just enjoy the fact that I can enjoy my Sunday evening, without that usual dread of Monday morning. I am taking some steps to hopefully remedy this. I applied for a job the other day, and have an interview shortly. I am not going to get too hopeful, but it would be quite cool if I got this new job. In other news, Michael is continuing to twitter occasionally. When I started to ‘following’ Read more […]

April 23rd, 2009 madnad And I think… he has! For those wondering what on earth I am wittering on about, there has been an epic battle on Twitter between a Fake Michael Sheen and a Real Michael Sheen. The faker made the mistake of obsessing a little too much about New Moon (the Twilight sequel that Michael will shortly be filming) and this was picked up by the many Twilight blogs out there. News of the twitter account obviously got back to Michael, so our man joined Twitter and graciously offered the Faker a chance Read more […]
All things Michael Sheen
April 1st, 2009 madnad I have been very lax with this blog, but I make no apologies as I have been rather busy. It was mentioned in a previous post that I was finally getting off my arse and putting a website together, for Michael Sheen. It has been up now for a few weeks and I must say that I am blown away by the response. There has been so many visits, and registrations, that it proves to me this was the right thing to do. I am enjoying myself and learning a lot, which to be honest, was the plan all along. I have Read more […]
Something to add to your browser favorites
March 6th, 2009 madnad Okay… so I know that I said I would finish my Lucian fanfic before I did this, but I got a bit excited and… I am now the proud owner of michael-sheen.co.uk. Yeay! It seemed such a shame that such an amazing actor only had one website that I could find. The existing website is also very badly organized (in my opinion) and infrequently updated. I have wanted to do a website for sometime now, but have been lacking in inspiration for the actual content. When I spotted that there was an obvious Read more […]

February 27th, 2009 madnad Since my retro crush on Michael Sheen has been reactivated after my first (hopefully of many) viewings of Rise of the Lycans, I have decided to splash out on a few DVDs of his work outside the Underworld franchise. Last month, I managed to pick up Laws of Attraction, which is a sweet and funny story and Michael looks great as the rock ‘n’ roller Thorne Jamison. Second purchase was Ancient Rome: Rise and Fall of an Empire which I have not watched yet, although I have seen a few clips on You Read more […]

Success!
February 16th, 2009 madnad Today I received a good email. Hidden away among the rest of the flotsam and jetsam that is my infrequently visited inbox, was an email from the AAT. It seems that I have passed my final exam, and am now eligible to apply for full membership therefore allowing the letters MAAT after my name. For those unfamiliar with the AAT, it is a finance qualification, somewhere between an A level and a degree. I will not be applying for membership as I feel the use of letters after ones name these days Read more […]
