Thoughts, Quotes, Recipes, Books, Witty Anecdotes and General Ramblings of a Linebacker That Can Count
Who Am I?
- Tarannau57
- Daniel Lewis. Ordinary name, not such an ordinary bloke. I'm from Llanelli, and I've lived in Bath, Cardiff and have now settled in Devon and soon to be Somerset. I graduated with an honours degree in Accounting and Finance from Aberystwyth University. I played 3 years for Tarannau Aberystwyth American Football Team and now play for Somerset Wyverns (#57 and now #27). I am the defensive coordinator for Exeter Demons. I enjoy my life to the best of my ability, through family, friends and sport. I'm one of those cases of don't judge a book by its cover. I love to hit and do all the macho things you can dream of, but I'm also a domesticated professional, who loves to cook and read books. I'm a bit of a strange one, from my sense of humour to the title of this blog, as one of the rare few linebackers that can count.

It's Funny How Things Change
I like to start every blog post with some humour, and because it's me and I usually can't think of anything witty to say, I choose humorous cartoons or pictures. This family guy one is no exception, the show is a goldmine for comedy filled stills and gifs. This one really made me giggle as it shows change in an appropriate way to what I'm about to write about. It shows how the shows characters have changed over the years and how the writers have changed how they are perceived and act in the show. The worst part is, if most of you are completely honest, you wouldn't have noticed massive changes in the characters. But they are there and this image sums it up. Funny that, change. It kinda creeps up on you.
When I started writing this blog, I had a lot of things on my mind. Writing a blog seemed like the best way to get them out and to be heard. It has been fairly good, even if my writing needs work. The main reason for starting was because of the plethora of things I had to write about or felt I could write interesting pieces about. I started this blog just before Easter, and have been endeavouring to post regularly and interestingly. Endeavouring does not mean succeeding. At that time, I was busy socially, sporting and academically and had so much to write about I made sure I blogged regularly enough. I didn't always have the time to fit it into schedule.
The change has come post exams, once I have returned home to the wonderful hallowed town of Llanelli. (Sarcasm in parts but not as much as you think.) My life exists of breakfast,gym,lunch,job hunting, house, ps3, running and reading. These are all activities I quite enjoy apart from job hunting, but they aren't very exciting. This leads me to have loads of free time to do what I want. Blogging is high on the list, but the lack of excitement in my current lift means I have little to write about. Talk about catch 22 right? Not quite as harsh as the tale of Yossarian but essentially to find things to write about I have to take away the free time that would allow me to blog. Like I said before, change is weird.
On a passing note, if you've seen any of my tweets or status's lately you'll know I've been raving about and watching a lot of House. I will eventually shut up, but it is a genius of a program, a superbly played character and one of few TV shows that actually makes me think and become sharper. It's odd. Maybe I have a very similar sense of humour to the writer. Jesus, has that changed in me too?
