'At 3.24 am, my life fell apart.' So starts the downward tale of despair of Michael. Dumped by the woman he loved for eight years, he finds himself now having to pick up the pieces of his life... what there is of it and start all over again. Michael soon falls for the new girl in work, Vicky, who is utterly unobtainable and he then makes it his quest to make sure that they will be together, by any means necessary. During all this time, he experiences driving tests, job interviews, the problems with living in the place he had once shared with someone else and the even further problems of moving, cats and the occasional cameo by his ex to make his life miserable with stories of her perfect new life. Or maybe that should be even more miserable. He explores the problems of men meeting single women, dating rituals and the sheer futility of life interspersed with top ten lists, bile-infused reviews and comments on things that have affected his life in the big wide world.
