Companies House

Another website with opening hours. Weird opening hours too. 7am to midnight.

I’m at a loss for words really. Since when do websites have opening hours?

Tagged Moaning

Wordpress does tagging now so I decided to go through all my old posts* and tag them.

Screenshot of a tag cloud.

I’ve certainly moaned a lot here, haven’t I? I hope I don’t give the wrong impression.

I don’t think I’m a terribly negative person in real life. It’s just that I’ve tended to use this blog as a place to get stuff off my chest every once in a while. That’s why this thing is so quiet most of the time. I have nothing to moan about!

So, uh… yeah. Good for me, I guess.

Also I apparently loves me some crap jokes.

*30 posts made in 3 years so it wasn’t that hard!

I wonder…

Is it possible to get an aneurism or stroke from coughing too hard?
I hate being sick.

This stuff is great. It’s like burning to death in a blizzard. What an age we live in.

Crock o’ Clock

I overslept last night because my clock crashed. The time must’ve frozen at 8.03pm last night so when I woke up today I naturally assumed it was 8am. It was only when I woke up an hour later and it was still 8.03 that I realised something was wrong. It’s just a clock! What could make it crash? Either I was abducted by aliens or Oregon Scientific make poor clocks.

Good/Bad Things

  • I failed my Foundations of AI Exam yesterday
  • I had a nice day out and about in Seaford on Friday
  • It’s really very hot here and when it rains it mostly just makes it sticky too
  • I have 4 more exams to do. Two of them are at 9:30am
  • I have no 3rd installment to my student loan and it doesn’t like I’m going to get one
  • I finished Metal Gear Solid 3. It was good, but I don’t know if I liked it more than MGS2

Little Good Things

Just to prove that life’s not all misery I have made a short list of good things that have happened today1.

1. My toilet was fixed
2. I got a bill dealt with in a very satisfactory manner (it was sent in error and I didn’t have to pay it)
3. A memory card for my dreamcast arrived
4. Housing is sorted for next year (though this is somewhat bittersweet)
5. It was sunny and bright and everyone was happy

1It should be noted that today was better than average, I’d say

Misery x 2

Bad mood time.

Misery 1: I’ve not had a restful night’s sleep since I got back. If it’s not the birds tweeting, it’s the drunken revelers shouting and singing and playing their music too damn loud for 4am. I’ve tried closing the window (but it does get stuffy), I’ve tried earplugs (even though they’re uncomfortable) and I’ve tried both at the same time. None good enough, nor in combination. I have one last weapon in my fight against insomnia. Hypnotics. I’d rather not resort to drugs to help me sleep (for fear of screwing up my sleeping pattern even further), but it’s my last resort.

I promised two miseries, didn’t I?

Misery 2: My toilet has sprung a slow leak.
