Well, after whining that I had nothing to say yesterday, today I've got lots!

1. No breakfast again.

2. I am quite annoyed. Semagic refuses to work on this computer. No matter how many times I uninstall/reinstall/re-download etc, it WILL NOT WORK. So I'm posting this from LJ itself, which feels all weird and I don't like it.

3. One of the things I need to do is focus and stop faffing around constantly. The other day I thought I'd like to decide on something to knit, so I got all my stash out and spent an entire evening picking up balls of yarn and going, 'This is a ball of wool. It is blue.' And then I put them all away again.

4. The retired editor of the magazine I work for writes a column of confused ramblings and rantings for us every month. He likes to stick a joke at the end, under the heading 'And finally...' Many of the jokes are at the expense of John Prescott, with whom retired-Ed. is apparently slightly obsessed. I took one and rewrote it to see whether it could be made funny, or failing that, just odd.
