The Parting Glass
Well, readers, it's been a funny day, all told. Up to today the most exciting thing that had happened all week was that I went to Birmingham on Wednesday. And bought a tie.
DIGRESSION ALERT: I apologise for those last two sentences being delivered in the style of Jeremy Clarkson (seriously, that's how it sounds in my head).
Then Sunday. I hopped off to buy a Sunday Times, as per usual. I went to the gym at 11, much earlier than usual, at the behest of my gym buddy. I had lunch, and quarter-watched (couldn't call it "half-watched") the F1. Then I decided to embark on The Ironing. The Ironing pile was immense. It took me over three hours to safely finish it up (although there were a few massive breaks in work in those over three hours... I like ironing, but it's not good to do so much at one time).
Then dinner, followed by the most uncomfortable Top Gear I've ever seen. Poor James. Dave pitched out to feed the capitalist behemoths of Tesco, and I committed myself to the washing-up. When Dave returned and came through the lounge (steady now), there was a crash of some sort. It transpired that the picture frames I'd got for Christmas had fallen over; sadly, the glass in one of them had shattered. So Dave set about collecting the glass and putting it into empty cereal boxes, as per tradition, with a little help from myself. I was taping up the Cheerios box that contained the glass and writing "GLASS" on it when I noticed that if I wrote the word in the right place, the front of the box would read "Deliciously crunchy GLASS". Just one of them things.
Finally, I decided to investigate something. I've bought a remote control for a PC. Just a little thing for presentations at work; I'd noticed that the PC is very close to the screen in one of our classrooms, so I thought a remote would help out. It's brilliant. The power I can now exert over my presentations is amazing... and I don't even have to point the thing at the dongle (tee-hee) it uses. I am all-powerful indeed!
Also finally, UK MSN Entertainment's list of TV's Unlikely Sex Symbols includes David Tennant. I find it unlikely that that fellow would be in a list of Unlikely Sex Symbols. Shows what I know, right?
PS Worried about Futurama. The original cast has to come back when the show comes back, or it just won't work.
PPS Thanks for reading. You're a superstar!
