My sleep patterns have been all kinds of messed up lately. All this fooling around on other people’s schedules isn’t good for a body. Three cheers for holidays then, because things have been getting back to normal. For instance: last Tuesday evening I grabbed a bus after work, met up with a friend I don’t see half enough, watched a bunch of stupid videos, watched Syriana, read the Wikipedia article about Syriana, read the back of the Syriana DVD box, gave up on Syriana, went home, played Mario Galaxy til five in the morning, went to bed, woke up sometime in the middle of Christmas Eve. That’s a good night by anyone’s standards.
Since then I’ve gotten nicely into a groove of bed at 0700, up at 1500. That’s a sensible use of time. Who needs more than an hour’s daylight?
It looks like we are to have another general election.
Yes, because apparently we didn’t vote in the right people last time, and they’re going to keep on dragging us back to the polls until our faceless masters get what they want. It could be sprung on us at any moment (although probably 2012) and you can bet your arse that they’ll wait until we’re at our most scared and disoriented to try and sneak it through (although, again, probably 2012). I would urge you to at least spend ten minutes doing a bit of research and getting yourself to at least some kind of bare, junior infants-level understanding of the issues, but what’s the point? What would even be the chuffing point? We all know that it’s the worthless sheepy ludramans who form 51% of the population who carry these things, and even if by some kind of sexy miracle they manage to get their thumbs out and vote the right way (which is to say, the wrong way as far as the fat cats are concerned) then it will probably turn out that that was the wrong way to vote all along (which is to say, vice versa)!! And EVEN IF there’s a sexy miracle and thumbs are out and so on and they vote the right way (the right way) and that turns out to actually be the actual right way (see previous) then there’ll just be ANOTHER election in a few years’ time, and another, until we DO get it (actually) wrong (from our point of view)!!!
There is JUST NO POINT TO ANY OF THIS.
Homepages is out and you should buy it, because it will improve your life in measurable ways. You can buy it here. There’s wackiness going on with the postage prices so what you want to do is buy it in bulk. Buy enough and you can build a tiny fort for yourself. Or for homeless people, who have some kind of vested interest in this thing, I don’t know. I had glazed over at that point. Someone mentioned writing and the instinct took over. Like a shark on rollerblades. Only, he probably doesn’t know an awful lot about rollerblades so he tends to fall over a lot and slide off in random directions, and all things considered he would be much better off ditching the fancy footwear and sticking with what he knows. That is a metaphor.
