Work before pleasure, and it would be a pleasure to get that reading out of the way....

On my mind?

I hate going to the swimming lessons with the school as they always put me in the bottom group which ive been in for 4 years now.

Oh swimming... That's when you swim over to someone thats underwater and you let a fart go next to them. Guarantee they'll still bolt, even though they can't smell it.

Good times

Sadly I seem to have lost the install codes, so I have to read the book.
Or use the wikipedia synopsis.

Besides, the foreshadowing kinda gave the end away for the most part.

Guy breaks leg, main character has an apprehension about a flight of marble steps.
Guy who broke legs most likely falls down marble stairs and dies/comatose is my guess.

Also, I'm writing my own RPG system right now. Wonder if anybody would play it though?

Post it when you get to the testing stage, and I'd be happy to try it out

Man, my head hurts. I went to bed at 5am and just woke up.

Shat.

I do that all the time, messing up my sleeping cycle.

It starts off with me going to bed a little later, so I wake up a little later... and it goes on and on into I have to stay up all night and not sleep into the next night.

I didn't do that recently and become nocturnal, waking up at night and just sleeping all day. It was pretty fun.

(Is Nocturnal the right word?)

I have upset about half of my subcontractors at work in the last two days as they have applied for tens of thousands of pounds too much on their accounts as we near the end of our project (building a new school).

They are a bunch whiney idiots that do not understand the contracts they have signed up to and despite me spending time with them to resolve (and giving them additional money at the start of the lob to avoid such situations!) they do not grasp their own failings and responsibilities. It's going to be a difficult few weeks argueing with them every day until I can get them to realise, and the longer it takes the less money I am willing to give them!

Still sucks to be them!

I'll give it a try...

A person, left to their own devices would naturally fall into about a 26 hour sleep/wake cycle. So you have a natural tendency to stay up later and sleep later. I do it alot. The question is why not a 24 hour cycle?

Wait, they stay awake for 26 hours then fall asleep for 26 hours? Or is it 13 each?

I'm reading the original Conan stories by Robert E.Howard now. They are totally killer. Awesome low-fantasy stories. If you haven't read the Howard stuff, you haven't read Conan.

Happy Canada Day!

This. Anything else just pales in comparison.

In other news, I saw Toy Story 3 and Avatar The Last Airbender yesterday.

Toy Story 3 was fething fantastic. I loved it. I also shed a tear at the end scene, I'm a big softie. Soooo much nostalgia.

Last Airbender blew.

I also saw a comedy show with Patton Oswald yesterday. Damn that guy is funny.

@ EF - I have looked into it further. My information was on some older research that has been proven incorrect.

Here is a wikipedia link that explains it all pretty well.

I was a bit meh about the whole thing. Though to be honest it was pretty good for an 3rd movie. Spanish Buzz brought a smile to my face.
I tried to keep the bile down my throat while watching Shrek 4 or whatever. It was pretty gak.

I grew up with Toy Story so admittedly a little nostalgia got in place but still. I saw the original in theatres, same with the 2nd.

So it was sad to see it all end. Oh well! I enjoyed so that's all that matters.

Dood, we're on page 123!

So, Canada day was a blast, got lost in the park and I had a beer in the park. EPIC

Also I'm going to kamloops in 5 days. AWESOME

Just got back from seeing Rush play at Starlight Theater. It's my first time seeing them live and it was awesome. They may be a bunch of old dudes, but they can still kick ass. There was even somebody in the crowd smoking some trailer-park skunkweed.

Is there any way for me to put my avatar on the side of my Valkryie?
