Except that yesterday I went to two picnics. Which could have been difficult. But thankfully they were at the same time and place. I wish I could combine more things in that manner. Eg. Bible study and work. Church and engagement parties. It could work.

I had a dream…
that I had a third eye, on my forehead, above my nose. It was quite distressing really. I considered asking a doctor to sew it shut but then realised that I would have a soft spot in the middle of my forehead. Not a good solution. It then dawned on me that it wasn’t a [...]
intriguing
I just realised that I don’t like what was my favourite tv show anymore. This is sort of good because it means I have no permanent commitment after 7:30 on Saturday nights anymore but it’s a bit… odd. I just watched the first 17 minutes and felt that the final 43 minutes would be too [...]
stalking a cowboy
Today my brother and I went shopping for a birthday present for a friend. As we were walking from the car into the shopping centre I saw a guy wearing what appeared to be a cowboy shirt. I was intrigued by this shirt so told A that we had to catch up so I could [...]
Wiblog entry for 28/05/2004
This morning as I was gazing out the window of my train, I noticed that every single indicator monitor on the platform had a Windows error message obscuring it. The stations were still scrolling merrily away underneath the error messages.
That must be why the trains aren’t running on time. I blame Microsoft.
a story from a different pharmacy
This is true. It occurred while a friend was working as a delivery boy (damn him!) at a pharmacy in his youth.
An elderly Italian man came into the pharmacy and asked the assistant for a “crotch rubber”. The assistant directed him to the condom section, probably muttering something involving “dirty”, “old” and “man” at the [...]
a thought occurred to me during bible study…
When Moses came down from Mount Sinai and everyone was worshiping the golden calf except the Levites, how did he know that it wasn’t the Levites doing it? Surely the Israelites would have all looked fairly similar… and there were quite a number of them…
Yet another occasion where my bible study leader looked confused briefly [...]
hmmm
I arrive back at work from some excursion to the following discourse:
New boss: Yay, do you know a junkie call XYZ?
Yay: never heard of him
New boss: er well he has been here lots of times before and said that (old boss) used to let him take the diazepam and pay for it later.
Yay: what was [...]
need another weekend
I am totally exhausted. Have had a somewhat non stop weekend. Well, a quite large proportion of today was spent sitting on a picnic rug but that was still a social situation where one must behave and make polite conversation (er… well conversation anyway!). The hens night was a quiet evening – very civilised really. [...]
6 hours til bedtime!
Have survived the hair rehearsal. Thankfully the person doing the hair is a very dear friend of mine and it was quite a fun afternoon really, apart from all the hot spiky things shoved into my head. Ah well. I am now convinced of the need to talk about product. eg. “I need a lot [...]
