I'm in another funny mood today. But funny in a good way, not my normal melancholy one. I think this is partly to do with the fact that I finally had a blooming good sleep, I'm sure that it was the result of 10 pints of beer rather than me feeling better (note to self: don't pop out for a "quick drink" and then reappear 6 hours later). The only problem is that I fell asleep watching the fantastically, brilliantly, wonderfully marvellous "Family Guy" and now have the theme tune stuck in my head.

There's a live act on in the pub tonight in honour of St. Patrick's day. I was thinking of going down there (Guinness £1.80 a pint from 7-10pm, wey hey!) but as I walked past the pub window this morning I saw they had a poster up of the woman in question - talk about scary! Imagine Cilla out of Corrie merged with Sue Barker and the Horsey One and you're about half-way there. Still, I suppose it should be good for a laugh.

Comedy highlights of the week so far are:

My Work Laptop being fixed.
That is fixed in a way that it is now almost unusable. I can't install any software on it, the CD-ROM drive doesn't read CDs so I can't repair Windows, my Outlook installation won't load so I'm having to rely on webmail (which is horrendous - sort it out Micro$oft) and it keeps randomly giving me static shocks (which is quite humorous to everyone else in the office who enjoy a good laugh when they hear me scream).

My Brother fiddling with the wireless router.
He's now broken it so that no one can access the Internet. He's offering to buy a new one. Silly boy. I can fix it but I've been off wandering about the countryside in a drink-fulled haze. Still, might teach him a lesson or two about fiddling with things that don't belong to him.

Playing pool against the landlady of "The Local".
I only won because of some weird flukey thing happening with the black ball. I'm sure that it was against the laws of physics.

The weather
Heard of the expression "Four Seasons In One Day"? And no, I'm not referring to the Crowded House Song. Well I think I've just experienced all of them, plus a few more I wasn't aware of this morning. If "they" tell me there's going to be a hosepipe ban in the next couple of weeks I'll be quite irritated. Not that I use a hosepipe but that's not the point is it?

4x4 Drivers
4x4 + Town + Roundabout = Moron. 'Nuff Said.

Right, 'spose I'd better get on and finish trying to be artistic. Ha!
