2:34 pm	Not good... I just ate half a sharon fruit. I stopped eating because it tasted really, really odd, even though it was obviously fresh. Now I'm feeling increasingly nauseous. People, if I die from this, tell the world I went out fighting bears or something. (Comment on this)

11:29 am	Rock on! There was a headline I saw yesterday which make me laugh in such a grammar-geek kind of way. ROCK STARS IN SHOCK CITY SHOW I have yet to find anyone else who finds that funny. :-( Does nobody else see the grammatical ambiguity? Does nobody else have the mental image of a lump of rock on stage attempting to entertain? (Comment on this)

9:39 am	Daylight Saving Time So, for those of us in Europe and North America, Daylight Saving Time has just ended. Those six months a year when we are legally permitted to gather and store daylight have come to a close. I'm sure many of you are now sitting at home with your saved pile of daylight wondering several things. Could you have saved more daylight? And what should you do with your daylight now that the saving time is over? The first year I actively saved daylight, I only managed to collect 3lbs (that was in the days before the metric system). Still, it would have been enough to last me through the winter, had I used it wisely. But instead I frittered it away, using it to read at night-time when I was too lazy to turn my bedside lamp on. By December I had no daylight left, and was forced to drive to work in the dark every morning. I advise you, no matter how much or little daylight you've managed to save this year, use it only when it is necessary. This year, thanks to much hard work, I have managed to save 18 kilos of daylight. This might seem like a lot, but I know how quickly it can be used up if I'm not careful. This is why I have chosen to put my daylight into a high-interest Daylight Savings account at the bank. I will make a daylight withdrawal only when necessary, and my daylight should easily last me all the way through to March. I advise everyone to do the same. And for those of you in Australia, your Daylight Saving time has just begun! I hope you are all working hard to save daylight already, and not leaving it until the last minute. Summer may seem long, but before you know it, it will be March and there won't be much daylight left to save. Good Luck! (13 Comments |Comment on this)

12:09 pm	MAS Okay, it's safe to say that "LOL" is a pretty useless acronym... I'm sure very few people often laugh out loud at their computer (or text messeges or whatever). SO! A new acronym has been invented by the great and wise Tim Minchin. MAS = Mildly Amused Smirk. People, start spreading it! (10 Comments |Comment on this)
10:59 am	Update on my life... Last night I had the geekiest nightmare. I dreamed that I was proof-reading the latest book chapter, and I suddenly realised that the WHOLE thing was one MASSIVE run-on sentence, and there was no way for me to dissect it to make it readable. I woke up in a cold sweat, it was terrifying. So, anyway... my life's not going too bad lately, all things considered. Had a bit of the 'flu, but then, who in England HASN'T had the 'flu lately? Nobody I know, anyway. Uni work is piling up and getting ridiculous. My Online News class is hilarious... the class is in two groups, each group has to keep a detailed blog of ALL developments. The blogs have been getting SO bitchy lately, our tutor must think we all hate each other so much. And that's only half true. There is some sad news. One of my lovely Tim Minchin badges accidentally got put in the wash attached to my Adam Hills tshirt. The badge is ruined. I shall hold a funeral for it later, and the mourning period will last for two weeks. (Comment on this)

8:46 am	Well... Since nobody guessed right, I'll have to tell you :-p On Saturday I shall be interviewing Richard Herring for a specialist feature article I'm writing about comedy festivals. I'm so nervous. Not only is this the highest profile person I've ever interviewed, it's also the first time I've ever conducted a face-to-face interview with someone of whom I'm a fan. Saturday's going to be awesome, though. Richard Herring show followed by an interview with him, then a couple of hours later, a Tim Minchin gig! (2 Comments |Comment on this)

5:17 pm	Moved! I'm in my new house! I had to gut the computer to get it to work, but it's all good now. Now that Cookie and Tom and I are living alone together, we've been free to turn the house into an incredibly geeky place. There's swords and pirate stuff everywhere.

9:03 pm	So Fucking Poignant... September 10 by Eddie Perfect The world is now a different place, The old world gone without a trace, Your left wing dreams have blown up in your face. Of course it was a lovely thought, That every human being ought To feel they are equal and have their own place to belong, I’m here to say that liberal fairy-tale's wrong. For fact is fact and can't be changed, And this one simple fact remains; That Muslim men with lengthy names, Each one of them, of course, insane, Hijacked domestic aeroplanes, Fulfilled their terrorism aims, not everybody wants to be your friend, Stop being so damn September 10. Thank heavens your guilt never overpowers, The strength of your suburban ivory towers, You'd probably like to help more but a day’s only twenty four hours. So while you sip on lattes and boutique beers, Shed out-dated socialist crocodile tears, The New World Order is knocking down your door, And Bolshevik bullshit can’t help you any more. You worry about plastic bags, Defend the rights of marrying fags, You read too many Cleo mags, And worry that your wife's tits sag, Your sponsoring of third world children Saves one child rejects one billion, Fucking weak humanitarians, Stop being so damn September 10. Our enemies get off on hearing left wing rants like these, While you drink wine and nibble vintage cheese, They're growing stronger every day I say How can I help and stop you people lying to yourselves? We're the world's wealthiest eight percent, Our pathetic shot at charity won't make a dent, What were we actually fighting for? Tomorrow and forever it's just war war war... Why did you come here tonight? We'll have a laugh, won't that be nice? But you can pay the ticket price, The rest of the world is eating rice, What's so fucking God damn funny? We're the cunts with all the money, I don't want to tell you all again, Stop being so damn September 10. When will we all understand, Our life is nothing but a bland And tiny speck of dust or sand, That slips through the creator’s hand, One grain of sand upon a beach, All hope for us is out of reach, We're going to die, the only question's when. Stop being so damn September 10! (Comment on this)
