I have question about toilet paper; do companies really think that they are saving money by putting that crappy thin stuff in their loos? Would it really break the bank to go for a nice 2-ply tissue? I'm sure it would boost staff morale if when they had to nip off for a "comfort break" *vomits* they knew that they wouldn't have to use reams and reams of the stuff just to wipe their backsides. Customer satisfaction would improve too if the loo paper matched the quality of the goods on offer.

I'll bet there's soft cushioned paper in the boss' corporate toilet!

Perhaps I've been thinking about this too much LOL I guess that's what happens when you're stuck at work with bugger all to do other than Kriss Kross and Arrowords. I have done some work, mind. I have emptied the self-return bins three times... not that there was much in them to empty.

Oh well, I'll be finished in half an hour. Thank god cos I'm starving *wates away in short loan*

My new shoes (supposedly for drving in) and socks (a treat for going in to hospital) arrived from Next this morning. The socks are great, they're stripy and they've got sparkly bits in that I wasn't expecting. The shoes are not so good. They're definitely the right length but they're far to wide so they gape when I walk and they look like friggin boats. Also the soles are really hard and inflexible so it looks like I'll be taking them back to Next tomorrow (I'll be buggered if I'm paying to post them back and I can't be arsed to arrange a courier to come and get them).

Apart from that, I've slept most of the day. Chris and me had a go at my Atmosfear jigsaw but the light really wasn't good enough to be able to tell the difference between the colour shades. So we gave up til tomorrow.

That's it really, bit boring LOL
Hello folks, welcome to my newly formed bloggage. I know I always said I wouldn't succumb to popular pressure and get one of these things but two things happened to sort of spur me on:


  1. Everyone seems to have one these days and I'm actually starting to feel a little bit left out.
  2. I'm due to go in to hospital soon and thought it might be cathartic (ie. stop me going insane) to document my stay there.

Having said that, I won't have any internet access while I'm there, unless they let me come home for my Sunday dinner like they did last time I was in, so the hospital blogness will probably come in one big post when I'm let out. Either way, I'm doing in so ner. I figure this thing will also help a bit when I'm nearing the end of my dissertation and start to pull my fingernails out with worry :)

That's it for now cos it's gone 2am and I need to go weewee. Chris looks like he's already asleep so I'd better hurry up and turn the pooter off or he'll get nouty.

*hugs*
