While skiing today
I performed a 25mph old-skool faceplant - as in I was perfectly horizontal in midair, and my face was the first thing to connect with the snow. I got a ski pole trapped under my chest, and the force of the impact was enough to snap it clean in two.

I sat up, fully expecting the pain to hit me, and... nothing. No pain. Just winded myself a little.

What pleasantly surprised you today?


Edit: The mystery of which body part broke the pole has been solved - my left shoulder has been aching like hell for the last two days.

I managed to do no work for over 24hrs
this is the first time in 3 weeks. Not doing work is cool

my pizza wasn't as good as I thought it would be
which is surprising because it looked fucking lush
and they're usually brilliant but this time it wasn't
just left a nasty garlic taste in my mouth

I'm so drunk that I'm thinking of buying these.

Huh?
You need to be drunk to buy them?! I don't particularly go for shoes or whatever, but even I can see they would be a good choice.. go for it!

My fishing buddies came over
and made me coffee, eggs & bacon as they found out I've been a bit down the last few days and not eating.
They then stayed to help me clean up my place.
It made me all light hearted and lully inside!
