Randomness

You know you need some time off when you start looking forward on reorganizing (read: reformatting and creating another partition) the notebook just because it would be 'something different'.

And I don't understand myself. I don't like the taste of coffee, it doesn't help me to stay awake, more than one cup a day does weird things to my hear-rate and if I drink it during the day, I need more sleep in the night.
The sensible thing would be not to drink coffee. Why am I doing it anyway?
Oh right, I remember. Because I need to use the milk before it goes bad, am nearly out of herb tea and too lazy to walk five minutes to the shop.

Today she told me that my father finally had mercy and took the Hoover to the car.
Under the drivers seat, directly in front of the heating, he found a rotting cucumber. Apparently it was still wrapped (small mercies).
Now, I know that the weekly shopping trip for this family is more than a bit chaotic (shopping for 3-7 people, everyone throwing things in the trolley, nobody having an actual shopping list - or even an idea what to eat the next week) but how can you not realize that you bought three cucumbers and only unloaded two?

Completely unrelated, but the dancing Snapes in the background here are truly frightening.

Oh fuck

Calling Julia to wish her luck for her exam tomorrow - good idea.
Not paying very much attention to the news and failing to remember that she's from Spain - very bad idea.

[ETA: And what exactly does it say about me, that I'm only skimming the BBC headlines and go "Politics, war, war, a bit of sport, bombing, politics - wait a second bombing in Madrid? Oh yes, eta, I remember - politics, war. Hmm, anything out of the ordinary? No, don't think so."]
