I hate karma.

Eating bread soaked in yoghurt and honey just so I can swallow some food was not how I envisioned the next few days. Although, there may be ice cream soon. I guess that's an upside, right?

Some Advice

Always check your toasters for mice.

SLOW DOWN

Adbusters have announced 'Slow Down Week' (see the animation here). The premise being:

For one week, instead of running to catch the bus or zipping in and out of traffic, try walking to work. Instead of grabbing take-out on the way home, cook a meal with your family. Leave the TV and computer off, and play an old-fashioned board game, or just sit and catch up with family and friends. If possible, take a day off work — and then while it away with a long walk and an afternoon nap.

It sounds interesting, but then one has to have been going fast in the first place for that to work :P

I checked out the latest Adbusters in the liiiibary t'other day, it was a roundup of 2006 edition, which, as per usual, scared me senseless. It's very interesting though. Always worth reading.

Also, it being new year and all, I thought I'd share this link with you - yes everyone claims to have the secret to willpower, but this kind of thing I think would actually work if anyone actually tried it.

And now, I must go blitz my Play to Create project...........

ETA: I've been chocolateless since Sunday.... similar to last year I've given it up.

James Dream

I had the weirdest dream, whereby I was in a James Dean movie, but I was also a man wearing a Jack Daniels t-shirt (JD I guess) and everyone was in colour except James Dean. Something weird went on, where we all ended up in this testing centre with lots of PCs where we just had to do whatever we would normally do on a PC, and I remember desperately trying to think of a way to escape. Dean was there too. I think someone had an afro.

What the hell was that about, and why was I a man?

It was not helped by my cat waking me up at 5am by walking on my head repeatedly until I got up.

I don't like Mondays.

Almost 24 hours until the first deadline hits. I like flashing underscores, they're helpful.

I also got rid of so many videos in the last 24 hours that I'm terrified. My amazon wishlist consists almost entirely of DVDs now, which is most unusual.

My hair is two colours. See my Myspace for more details.

Space Monkey.

Happy new year. Do not drink wine. That is all.

I can't believe it's 2007. That's all kinds of scary. I'll be 20 this year, no more teenagerness. Although, twenteen :P

I'm working on an essay about imagined communities, joy. Ed's playing Sonic Heroes, I'm jealous. But I'm listening to Placebo, so it's ok. And I have cake. Good cake.

Also, if you've never heard of Girls are Pretty and have a few decades to waste reading amusing things, you should go there now.
