I was having a good morning and then all of the sudden the Monday Blues got me down, and now I feel utterly cruddy.

Just be glad that this is the first real cold snap that we have had this winter. And take comfort in the knowledge that I am sitting in my warm office while I type this.

Going to be damn cold dumping the zamboni outside tonight at midnight! Not looking forward to it!

My ability to solve basic mathematical problems and remember basic mathematical techniques is messing with my groove or to put it bluntly shitting me up.

Rain.

I was barely five metres out of the train station before my shoes were soaked through on the way to work. Now they are propped against the wall to dry out, with my sodden socks artfully draped upon them and my feet are freezing in the aircon.

Haha that game was epic.

People pulling out legal translation requests 1 day before deadline. Possible I'll have to stay in longer today :/

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

We are supposed to get 8-15 inches of snow tomorrow. This is in an area so woefuilly unequipped to deal with snow that a half inch is literally enough to get schools cancelled for a day. This should be interesting.

I think my camera is broken. My auto-focus is acting all weird, and searching around rather than just taking nice crisp shots.

Groove is messed, because I don't know what's wrong, and I think it might be expensive. And because my camera is the nicest thing I own.

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

Reviewing books. I hate to say it but it's starting to steal the joy from my reading. Books have always been my "joy" staple; no matter what was getting me down I always had reading... but throwing up long discourse onto the blog is really becoming difficult and I always feel like I have to get to the next book to keep things consistent and keep readership up.

It's just got me down.

I miss reading just for fun.

That was an awesome game, but disgusting for the Saints defense.

Malcolm Jenkins should be sent to the Arena League. One of the worst games i've seen a DB play in a long time.

I've always been crazy but its kept me from going insane.

Blergh.

I just received a notice that tells me that selling my house and settling my mortgage prematurely is going to result in a 3% penalty of the total value of my mortgage. Urgh. Paying money to sell, weird premises.
And there is a chance that my life insurance will do the same, in which case, I might have to take a loan in order to be able to sell.

My gran (on my mother's side) had been battling a number of cancers for over a year, and they finally became too much for her over Christmas. She passed away just over an hour ago.

She was an awesome gran, and we're all going to miss her.

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

I'm sorry to hear of your loss, Illy.

HiddenOne. You son of a bitch. You slimy, skulking, low-posting scumbag. You knew it would come to this. Roundabout, maybe. Tortuous, certainly. But here we are, you and me again. I started the train on you so many many hours ago, and now I'm going to finish it. Die HO. Die. This is for last time, and this is for this game too. This is for all the people who died to your backstabbing, treacherous, "I sure don't know what's going on around here" filthy lying, deceitful ways. You son of a bitch. Whatever happens, this is justice. For me, this is justice. Vote HiddenOne Finally, I am at peace.

Really sorry Illy.

Cancer is fucking shit everyone in my family dies of it around 60-65. My grandad lived till 69 but it paralysed him 7 years before that. All sorts of shit.

Groove- My PGCE interview is coming up and my math skills are lacking tbh. Worried as fuck
