Work, mostly.
Going to try to find some stupid comedy or something to take my mind off stuff I've been despondant about recently.
( Kroney, Wed 12 Oct 2011, 19:02, Reply)

Yeah, I've been working today too, for a change.
It sucks. I need some adult conversation to cheer me up, but I can't be arsed to go out anywhere.

What's eating you, then?

what should I have for tea. I have: pasta, half a pepper, tomatoes in a can, an egg, some ham, some rice and not much else
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 12 Oct 2011, 19:14, Reply)

Any herbs?

( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Wed 12 Oct 2011, 19:16, Reply)

yes
green ones. I think I have basil and thyme, although no oregano.
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 12 Oct 2011, 19:17, Reply)

OK.
Fry the pepper. Heat the tomatoes and add the basil (I'm assuming they're chopped tomatoes, if not, squish them up). Cut the ham into strips, chuck that in as well and do some pasta. Bob's your uncle. Put a sprinkle of sugar into the tomatoes while they're cooking as it takes the acidity away. Not too much, though.
( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Wed 12 Oct 2011, 19:21, Reply)

OK - that's kinda similar what I tend to eat anyway
although I didn't know about the sugar thing.

I'm reaching my limit of being able to eat pasta, I think this is the source/sauce of my indecision today
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 12 Oct 2011, 19:23, Reply)

You could do egg fried rice.
Not sure if one egg would be enough though.

( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 12 Oct 2011, 19:26, Reply)

One egg is enough.
She could add the ham and peppers to the fried rice too. Mind you it's always better to use rice that's been cooled down for frying.

I used to like those BBC website photo competitions

CDs have a finite life. If that one is from 1987 then the film will start peeling relatively soon.

I went into the shop on Saturday and asked them to hold it for me for a few days.
When I bought it online they refunded me saying it'd sold out, I assumed they'd forgot about me and sold it to someone else, but when I went in today it turns out the person they'd sold/reserved it for was me. On top of that they had 15% off everything in store today so I got it for 170 instead of 200 smackers. Great, great days. I love it and it will keep me toasty warm in Poland next week cos it's lined with fur.

I was knocked off my bike by a van that didn't stop
10 miles from home so I rode home anyway. My right ankle is fucked as is my rear derailleur and my right arse cheek is gravel rashed. He didn't stop and I didn't get anymore than blue van as a description. I'm currently sitting with a red wine pain killer with my foot elevated with my wife tutting claiming I should go for xrays. Bugger that, I know for a fact they don't do xrays after 4pm at my local hospital and I'd rather stay here all night than wait there until morning. I reckon I'm ok though, it only hurts if I move it plus I managed 10 miles on it. Steak with mushrooms for supper!
