The button itself




thanks, Katie Craig.



So why the Fuckit button?
It was my friend Katie who came up with it. She told me that one of the best things about me is my well-developed fuckit button. I think she meant by this that I'm a plucky little fucker. That I don't let my fear of failure, my embarrassment, my insecurities hold me back. That I'm alive enough to live. (That's not a tautology, by the way). As such, it's the nicest thing anyone has ever said me and will forever be my personal mantra - certainly for work, probably for love, too.

I get very angry with myself when I can't locate my Fuckit Button, or when I wimp out on pressing it. Must try harder.

Mine can be a bit defective at times, but when it works it's wonderful (well, or completely devastating, depending on my reason for hitting it). It seems to have been put to quite a bit of use since you and I last met, I think you may have helped to repair it, so thanks for that.

Liking the blog, by the way, some interesting stuff here. Keep up the good work!
