Horoscopes

My horoscope today told me that I should bet a small amount on a horse with a jockey wearing lilac and that I like to receive long distance messages.
Firstly, every horoscope suggested either buying a lottery ticket or betting on horses, who sponsors mystic meg? Ladbrokes?
Anyways, who wouldn’t like any message from someone? Let alone a long distance one… Unless it’s a really long distance message… From an Asian call center… I don’t think I’d appreciate that as much.

Much love for Apple

Ok, so their computers are based on free code and sell for outrageous amounts of money, wrapped in horrid white plastic, no games support (big deal to me…), their user interface is hideous (apart from when the icons bounce around… that amuses me), they force users to use their software to get their IPods to even turn on (and this really had me shouting WTF at my IPod) and their RAM garbage collection in their OS never seems to work. Their IPods may have sucked and offered absolutely no advantages over the normal, cheaper, easier, DRM-free mp3 players available… but damn, I love my IPod touch… You think I was excited when I heard about a Dexter game coming to the IPod? I shall never doubt my decision to buy an IPod touch ever again:

Stability

Everything right now is a combination of the worse things that’s ever happened to me.
I have an insane amount of work with a seemingly long deadline, but is actually rather imminent.
My wound on my leg that I’ve had since Feburary had a swab result confirming mrsa is present again. I have multiple doctors appointments planned with the possibility of needing to see a microbiologist and a dermatologist.
My girlfriend has left me and it happened all over the Internet. She wouldn’t tell me the reasons properly and I have a lack of motivation and company.
I write this from my bed on my iPod as I can’t be bothered to go to my lectures.
The only chance of me publishing this will be if I drink too much wine later… Unfortunately, drinking on my own.

And there it is, I’ve had the vast vast majority of a bottle this evening… feel worse than ever. I’ll probably take this down tomorrow when I’m thinking clearly.

It feels like someone has taken my heart cut it up, then pulled everything out from inside me and just left a shell” - someone wrote this once

IPod

Posting from my IPod!!! Not the most user friendly device (it hates interacting with anything non-apple…) but whoop!
Shame it’s closed platform or I’d be going mental with the programming doo dah.
Post how to on making it work with stuff later.

Prawns

Why can’t I find the nice mayonnaise they use in prawn cocktails?…

These are the things I ponder when I have a report in later today… and it’s currently 3 in the morning…

and don’t you just hate rhetorical questions?

Money stolen from Debit Card

The other week I had just over £150 stolen from my account in the form of 16 I-Tunes payments… Needless to say I’m pretty annoyed. Took me forever to get this sorted. I started at the bank, where the girl at the window took 20 minutes to print out my statement, highlight the payments I didn’t make and tell me a phone number to call…Apparently, the only way to do important tasks is over the phone, despite me physically being in my bank branch with all my details.

Week of YouTube - Love songs, Seances and Magic!

Tim Minchin - Saw him live a few weeks ago, my second favorite song of his at the moment… if anyone knows where I can find Taboo, I am in desperate need of hearing that song again!

More after the jump!

Need… Internet…

You don’t realise how much you need the internet until it goes away… In Bristol, I have no internet access in my new student flat and it’s driving me nuts… I realised all my organisation, contact details, calendars, documents etc… are all online… I’m no longer organised…

Alternatively… I’ve spent more time working on a mind-reading trick recently… which I guess has been useful as I’ve nearly perfected it…

On reflection… I really waste too much time on the internet… now, during the few precious moments I have online, I find it hard to know what to do…

Oh well… I guess a few days straight playing “Air Traffic Control” on the DS can’t be too bad…
