allanaWell, this is the most bizzare thing I've read. Well, this week, at any rate. Harry Potter meets Discworld in a chaotic whirl of imagery and wands. It quite cheered me up!
Other things that have improved my mood:
* I have finally lost my rag with telemarketers/surveyors, and it feels good. After getting two calls yesterday from the same company wanting to interview Mrs Griffin and telling those two people that she no longer lives here, and to remove my number from their list, a third moron called this afternoon. He wouldn't deviate from his script and talked over my reiteration of the above, then wanted my name so that he could update his files and interview me (!)... so, I told him that he was a fucking wanker who was utterly incapable of listening and that I hoped his balls dropped off. I know call center people aren't supposed to deviate from their script, but they are allowed a bit of common sense, and he should have used his :P (The sad thing is, that I registered our number with the Telephone Preference Services a while ago, after Dave got fed up of people ringing up with surveys when we were eating dinner. I suppose it doesn't work then.)
* Bread. Good, fresh, hot bread, with butter and jam melting into the crumb. Now that's food porn.
* I'm having fun writing the bunny that I adopted from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
aseer. I've never adopted a bunny before, and I'm thinking that a bunny adoption day might not be a bad idea at all....
Oh... house stuff. I've got three houses that I'm interested in. If they're still on the market tomorrow afternoon, I'll make appointments for viewing on Saturday. If nothing comes of them, I'll have to go to Bristol by myself on Monday or Tuesday. Stressed? You bet!
I think I'll have some tea.
