Yes last saturday I watched paint dry, when it was all dry - it was beige by the way - i did a small celebratory dance that involved half an air punch and a semi twirl. It was very exciting aswell - the taxi says it'll be 5 minutes but really means 10.
Well I enjoyed the doodling more than I enjoyed the reading of said Guardian. And other than that I was burning CDs all day.
I had a pasty for lunch, pork and apple. That was nice. I saw my old friend Al McAl whom I've not seen in a while, which was also nice, then I bumped into my brother and had a chat, and I also saw my Mam for a bit.
Michael Viner's Bongo Rock: the incredible story of the Bongo Rock Band was finally delivered. 4 MONTHS! its the one with apache on it... A moment of extreme joy.
I (think) I amused some people on the limerick thread
And I had a conversation with a bird
not a lady - a big Hooded Crow/Jackdaw thingy that was sitting on top of a car near my house and screaming at all the passers by in a scarey 'caaaww' edgar allan poe kind of way.
It was a bit surreal actually as I was walking along reading Aleister Crowley's 777 and this crow was definately some kind of evil spirit so I 'caaawwwed' back at him a couple of times and he 'caaaawed' in reply - This exchange went on for about three minutes before he gave up and flew away - people were actually staring and watching this little exchange.
Other than that - every time I look out of my window at the sunny stockholm autumn evening I am full hearted with joy at the beauty of nature - I should take a picture and put it on my profile - it's awesome
Oh - and I took a pic from my balcony about ten minutes ago and posted it on my profile - doesn't really do it justice but it's so lovely I thought I'd share
Well today is my birthday. I got some nice cards and a digital camera (will need to change the profile pic soon) and going out to a nice Mexican restuarant with some friends later.
btw does anyone know why it is tradition in offices to buy cakes or sweets etc for the whole office?
I'm about sit down to watch all four "Of The Dead Films" with a bottle of vodka....my day could not get any better...then I am going out to a rock club to get even drunker...
"The day is nearly over.
I'm drinking a very fine bottle of white wine.
I beat you !"
No actually you didn't because... about an hour after finding the bag of Haribo, i also found a full bar (unopened) of mint aero. And i mean a big bar.
I had to work today, at a conference that I organised. I got up at 6:30. But now I am home with a beer and I don't have to be in work until Monday afternoon.
