Jeeez. I just logged on to post something, but spent so long deleting comment spam that I forgot what it was that I wanted to post. Great.

Things I hate the most: No.1. Not seeing my son each & every day.

I had another one of those Mondays that makes you feel the need to listen to Linkin Park at dangerously high volumes on the way home. Ug. If people just relaxed a little, I betchya the world would keep revolving.

I’ve been struggling with something that should have been really simple all afternoon, and I’ve been berated for swearing so harshly because of it. I’d forgotten how my swearing had reduced since Jack started learning to speak. I’ve been trying to do a really simple layout on the front of a Word document on my…

What the fuck just happened? England hadn’t been playing too badly, although midfield was looking a bit tired in the second half (by my uneducated vantage point). But we were 1-0 up against France.

As from this weekend, any CD ordered for delivery to the UK and Ireland will incur a surcharge as…

Oh man. That sucks. I used to visit thespark.com ages ago, for genius content like the “date my sister project”. Back then it was full of novel pseudoscience stuff, and was a fun site with minimal advertising. I checked it today and it’s pretty much full of the same old stuff, but it throws tons…

I had to go to Tesco’s yesterday to get the usual Christmassy crap plus nappies and food for Jack. I hate Tescos, unless it’s quet. I waited until as late as possible (about 9.30pm) before I went down. It was packed. Luckily with my iPod I was able to blank out the awful Christmas muzak…
