Nobody has said anything about the weather to me
but I did catch myself thinking it was odd that the weather had changed so dramatically in the space of two days. Then I remembered that it was actually October, and had a word with myself.

Alt: I'm astounded that people are still antagonising each other online, and apparently taking it all very seriously. I'm now doing the online equivalent of that thing you do at a dinner party when one of the couples has a massive barney. You know, that thing where you all laugh nervously and try to change the subject to anything else.

In other news, I appear to have a full range of movememnt this morning. Either I have finally taken enough drugs to affect a permanent effect on my system, or my body has decided it doesn't want to destroy itself from the inside out anymore.

Looking back on what I've just written, I suspect the former.

Glad to hear you're approaching full functionality sweetie

I don't think I've ever been fully functional
but I'm as close to it as I ever get.

I think you've got your affect and effect the wrong way round
Must be the drugs.
(, Fri 7 Oct 2011, 10:56, Reply)
Don't think so.
Affect is the verb, Effect is the noun.

EDIT: That's right, isn't it?

I'm not sure what you were originally trying to say...
affect - to change or make a difference to
effect - a result; to bring about a result
(, Fri 7 Oct 2011, 11:06, Reply)
That's exactly what I was trying to say
I think I've taken enough drugs over the last couple of days to achieve a permanent alteration of my physiological system.
(, Fri 7 Oct 2011, 11:10, Reply)
See, why didn't you just say that in the first place?
/campaign for plain English
(, Fri 7 Oct 2011, 11:17, Reply)
No.
Affect is a verb. Effect is both.
