I Hate Damien Mulley

February 23rd, 2009

Damien Mulley is an enabler.
An enabler of alcohol induced mess.

I think this week I will be having a wee think about what I’m doing. In general. Not to get too deep but I don’t think I’m happy right now. I get out of Belfast whenever I can and that’s what makes me happy. Little else seems to be working as I float on through life. Some changes need to be made…

The past few days have brilliant; I’ve met so many people who I like and respect, the problem being that all of these people live where I don’t.

This year Damien put on a number of events the few days before the Awards, not to mention the fact that this year’s venue of the Cork International Airport Hotel is the greatest hotel and venue for such an event ever, but Damien with his free alcohol is just asking for trouble.

So as I decide what to do I want to thank Damien for 4 years of being an enabler of fun and for providing this platform of encouraging people to meet in person. Congrats to everyone who provides great content, puts it online and to those who have been recognised to as being as great as they are. Thank you for those whose company I have enjoyed over the last few days; thanks for putting up with me. If I was to do it again, I would do it a lot differently. I heard the inflatable twister was good.

(Obviously I don’t actually hate Damien, quite possibly the very opposite)

Sounds like you are doing a lot of thinking there:) If you are not happy make a change man, it can seem daunting but is actually very easy to do and it could make you 10 times happier :)

Phil, I hope you get to where you want to be and are happy doing something you enjoy. At times, stepping back to have a good think is essential. You’re very talented. In fact, you’re awesome.

You are the smiliest, happiest drunk I’ve met in an age. Even when totally hammered, you were a dote, pouring a pint of water over me or not. We all get totalled now and then and do stupid things, not everyone can be as nice when they do. Don’t think too long and hard about it, you’re one of the most genuine people I’ve met which is rare in this cynical world. And this is being typed by a cynic. I don’t not hate you too dude!
