Call this early
10 past fucking 5 I was up this morning.
Alt Q: I eat jelly babies the two bite method. Off with the head first, and then the rest. Except, I don't eat them very often, like maybe once a year when I can steal them from a kid without the parents seeing.

Morning all
I woke up at 5.55 today and couldn't get back to sleep, so just dozed a bit until my normal 6.45 alarm went off. So I could be better.
I eat my jelly babies whole. But I can't think when I last ate one.

Good morning, you insufferable wanker.
I don't like sweets.
I did manage to hack an enormous bloody swathe through the index finger on my right hand, drunkenly chopping parsley yesterday evening, though.
In other news I managed to resist my ex's attempts to lure me round hers for sex (with the promise of massive drugs) on Saturday night. This was alarmingly difficult to resist. She's looking very attractive at the moment.

It's not early here. And I've been told today by the doctor after being sick with what I thought was a chest infection for a week, that I probably have asthma that was previously unknown. Got a ventilator and started using it and I can already feel the difference in breathing.
Odd that I managed 18 years without knowing I have asthma.

What if you were driving down the M25 with the roof top down and have a bit of Semisonic going on the wireless at full volume, shades down and a long flow'y scaff in the wind. Belting out "This'll be my year" at the top of your lungs, not noticing the speedomitor going further and further to the right, and as you just hit the turn-off at Potter's Bar, you miss it. Then, suddenly, a kitten his holding hands with a puppy crossing the road right in front of you, to get to the other side, and you swerve to avoid them.... and then suddenly there is a nucular truck in front of you, but they have to do an emergancy stop and you go right into the back of them at 125mph, and the nuclear truck goes off and kills everyone you know and love.
.... I really don't know where I'm going with this, but 'hi' anyway.
