I slept reasonably well
but was still wide awake at half past five. I got up and said good morning to
Fudge who continues to snore on the sofa. He seemed *so* content this morning.
I watched an episode of
“Big Mouth” (good old Netflix) then peered into the abyss of cyber-space. There
wasn’t that much kicking off over there this morning really. I had an email
from the nice people at Coursera suggesting I launch my career in computer science…
I suppose it isn’t *too* late for a
change in direction, but realistically the only career change I really fancy at
the moment is to retire. I think I would be good at being retired.
The
sky was a rather spectacular shade of pink as I set off to work this morning.
As I drove the pundits on the radio were interviewing my local MP on his views
of the Brexit deal which (over one short
week) has gone from pie-in-the-sky to being pretty much a done deal. He
spouted a lot of platitudes and catch-phrases without actually saying anything.
He was then quizzed about the ongoing argument about universal credit.
Whilst
some people are hard-working and need a little help, others abuse the system.
Surely there is something wrong with our society in which hard-working people
simply have more expenses than they have income? You'd think someone in
authority might address that, wouldn't you?
There
was then some stake nonsense from the Bishop of Norwich whose "Thought for the Day" started off
about how terrible early-onset dementia could be and ended up likening not recognizing
God as being like having early-onset dementia.
I
wonder just how he worked that one out? Perhaps having early-onset dementia
helps the thought processes required to be a bishop?
I
stopped off at Aldi on the way to work. I’ve not been there for a while. They had
some very oddly-shaped pet toys; I actually said “Good God – dog dildos” out loud to the surprise of the nearby
normal people.
And
then t work where I had a rather busy day. The day might have been better if
not for the ear-worm – for some odd reason I couldn’t get the theme to “Huxley Pig” out of my head…
Today was rather dull…
