The
weekend was rather a busy one; I suppose that it's no surprise that I
slept like a log last night. Out cold for over seven hours. That
rarely (if ever) happens these days. I got up and found my
little dog was still asleep. After his tea he went straight to his
basket last night and was still there this morning. He also had found
the weekend rather wearing.
Over
brekkie I had a look-see on-line. In addition to the Brexit-ers
who've thought about their decision there seems to be a growing
movement advocating leaving the European Union for the simple reason
that the likes of the Prime Minister, ex-Prime Ministers and various
prominent politicians feel staying in is the best option. The logical
extension of this is that because the likes of the Prime Minister,
ex-Prime Ministers and various prominent politicians advocate
breathing, one should immediately drop dead from aasphyxiation.
I
also read that one of the video feeds from the International Space
Station has picked
up a UFO, and that our old friend science has discovered
lesbian gorillas.
I
tried solving a geo-puzzle as well. I would have done better had my
lap-top not been on a go-slow. It is not the most up-to-date device
in the world. I'm beginning to wonder if it will soon be time to
replace the thing with a newer model.
I
gave up fighting with my lap-top and took "Furry
Face TM"
for a walk round the park. As we went we had the usual episodes of my
dog being scared of other dogs, my dog scaring other dogs, my dog
humping other dogs. He tried to hump OrangeHead's dog. It was as well
that at the time OrangeHead's dog was being walked by OrangeHead's
stunt double. I'm assuming it was her daughter.
There
was a worrying few moments when "Furry
Face TM"
was choking. I pulled chicken bones from his mouth. I must admit I
like KFC, but I don't throw the bones across the park; especially not
when there is a bin not ten yards away.
Once
home I re-booted the lap-top and had another go at geo-puzzling;
rather more successfully this time. I wonder if the thing realised I
was getting a tad hacked off with it.
I
saw a few messages from friends going off on a geo-mission today. It
would have been good to have joined in, but I was on the late shift
today. So I set off to work; still sulking somewhat. I've had the
weekend to reflect on last week's interview. I *wouldn't* want
to be in a manager's position again. But *I* want to make that
decision, not have it made for me.
As
I drove to work Women's Hour was on the radio. There was an interview
with some bright up-coming young musician (I didn't catch her
name). She is supposedly featuring live with Stevie Wonder among
other famous musicians, and apparently Women's Hour was lucky to
have her on the radio. She sounded quite interesting when
interviewed. As a special treat for the listeners she then sang a
couple of songs.
Oh
dear....
She
really didn't sing at all. It was best described as a howl. It was
truly dreadful. To think people are paying good money to listen to
her...
I
got a bit of shopping in Morrisons. I noticed that armpit-squirt has
dropped in price. Eighty-four pence today; the same brand was one
pound fifty the other week. And as I was in the area I stopped off in
Go Outdoors where I got a new picnic blanket and a seat belt for my
dog. He won't like it.
The
nice lady in Go Outdoors told me my Go Outdoors bargain card was
about to expire; have I really had that thing for a year? It was
somewhat ironic that as I arrived at work my phone beeped with an
email from Go Outdoors with a promotional code offering me an extra
ten per cent off of any purchase I might make today.
Once
at work I did that which I couldn't avoid, and then came home as
promptly as I could for my usual Monday fix of Game of Thrones and
Gotham. Gotham was excellent; I can't reallyu comment on Game of
Thrones; I slept through much of it...
