It's raining and I can't find an umbrella.

Harold Media (kenan), Thursday, 26 August 2004 01:13 (twenty-one years ago)

my right shoe is tied slightly too tightly

There is something to be learned from a rain storm. When meeting with a sudden shower, you try not to get wet, and run quickly along the road. By doing such things as passing under the eaves of houses, you still get wet. If one is resolved from the beginning, you will not be perplexed, but will still receive the same soaking. This understanding extends to all. - Yamamoto Tsunetomo

There's a faint graze on my back where my backpack rubs against my roll of fat.

Sexual Air Supply (Autumn Almanac), Thursday, 26 August 2004 01:19 (twenty-one years ago)

I should really not have said that.

Sexual Air Supply (Autumn Almanac), Thursday, 26 August 2004 01:19 (twenty-one years ago)

The beanbag neckroll thingie that I heat up in the microwave & put around my neck for my RSI is cold. I could stand up & go microwave it some more, but I'm too tipsy.

cinniblount (James Blount), Thursday, 26 August 2004 01:49 (twenty-one years ago)

I just got $40 bucks from selling a friend some CDs and decided to cel-o-brate by spending half of it on a giant fucking pizza from heaven

CeCe Peniston (Anthony Miccio), Thursday, 26 August 2004 01:50 (twenty-one years ago)

The more you post, the more convinced I am that being fat is indeed a trivial problem.

Harold Media (kenan), Thursday, 26 August 2004 01:51 (twenty-one years ago)

(Because I wouldn't otherwise think so.)

Harold Media (kenan), Thursday, 26 August 2004 01:55 (twenty-one years ago)

my room smells of pizza there's nothing on tv.

cºzen (Cozen), Thursday, 26 August 2004 01:57 (twenty-one years ago)

This cup of green tea -- and indeed all cups of green tea -- tastes kinda bad in a vague way that allows me to keep drinking but never to really enjoy it.

Harold Media (kenan), Thursday, 26 August 2004 02:00 (twenty-one years ago)

itchy.

Begs2Differ (Begs2Differ), Thursday, 26 August 2004 02:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Harold Media (kenan), Thursday, 26 August 2004 02:14 (twenty-one years ago)

I had to cash in 3 scratchie tickets just to buy my lunch cos I'm a dork and left my ATM card in my other pants.

Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 26 August 2004 02:20 (twenty-one years ago)

kenan - you should have a look at www.dailyzen.com it has lots of those kind of wise buddist/taoist sayings... I love them!

Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 26 August 2004 02:21 (twenty-one years ago)

i have spent the last two days staring at spreadsheets of employee numbers in regional wa and i have concluded the data is completely FUCKED/inaccurate/poorly collected and collated just generally no good for anything at all except filing in the BIN

gem (trisk), Thursday, 26 August 2004 02:33 (twenty-one years ago)

I smell a skunk. They burrow under our house.

Maria D. (Maria D.), Thursday, 26 August 2004 02:38 (twenty-one years ago)

Some of my favorite internet radio stations are on crappy 24 kbps streams.

Rock Hardy (Rock Hardy), Thursday, 26 August 2004 02:39 (twenty-one years ago)

gem (trisk), Thursday, 26 August 2004 02:56 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm feeling a throbbing pain that I feel I can only rectify by taking half a Vicodin, but even if I take half a Vicodin I know I'll be rendered unconscious faster than one of Mike Tyson's opponents in the late '80s. So I'll just have to cope with this throbbing pain.

I do have pretzels, though, so that sorta even things out.

Many Coloured Halo (Dee the Lurker), Thursday, 26 August 2004 05:14 (twenty-one years ago)

staple stuck in the index finger

dean? (deangulberry), Thursday, 26 August 2004 05:19 (twenty-one years ago)

My iPod's battery is running a bit low, I don't think it'll keep going to the end of work AND on the train home.

Shady Loch Lenin (haitch), Thursday, 26 August 2004 05:35 (twenty-one years ago)

i don't have an ipod

gem (trisk), Thursday, 26 August 2004 05:36 (twenty-one years ago)

My desk is a big fat mess :(

Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 26 August 2004 05:36 (twenty-one years ago)

My glasses are leaving a weird oval-shaped indentation on the left side of my nose, I think they might need adjusting.

Shady Loch Lenin (haitch), Thursday, 26 August 2004 05:40 (twenty-one years ago)

It's slightly warm in here.
There's nothing on TV.

oops (Oops), Thursday, 26 August 2004 05:44 (twenty-one years ago)

I think I just drank too much coffee. Dammit.

Slim Pickens (Slim Pickens), Thursday, 26 August 2004 07:31 (twenty-one years ago)

I am very slightly hungry.

Jimmybommy JimmyK'KANG (Nick Southall), Thursday, 26 August 2004 07:34 (twenty-one years ago)

The orthotic in my left shoe keeps slipping forward as I walk, and every 1000 meters or so I have to take my shoe off and slide it back where it belongs.

Colin Meeder (Mert), Thursday, 26 August 2004 07:45 (twenty-one years ago)

The inside of my water glass smells a little funny.

Bryan (Bryan), Thursday, 26 August 2004 07:54 (twenty-one years ago)

My shoulder hurts. My laundry basket overfloweth. I have a proofreading job over bank holiday weekend.

Archel (Archel), Thursday, 26 August 2004 08:03 (twenty-one years ago)

I have very dull conference call due to start any second. I don't own a digital camera.

robster (robster), Thursday, 26 August 2004 08:04 (twenty-one years ago)

my shoelaces keep coming undone, because they are 10-hole doc laces and i've only got them done up to the 7th hole, but i don't want to do them up any further cos then they'll rub against my leg, but like every 200 yards i have to stop and re-tie them...

CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Thursday, 26 August 2004 08:14 (twenty-one years ago)

I think I have possibly exhausted the photographic potential of the beach in the evening.

Jimmybommy JimmyK'KANG (Nick Southall), Thursday, 26 August 2004 08:24 (twenty-one years ago)

Carsmile: tie loops in knot when finished retying. Give the knot a good tug. End of problem.

I am about to have a fashion attack as have no idea what to wear to lunch with glossy mag editor in two hours.

suzy (suzy), Thursday, 26 August 2004 08:46 (twenty-one years ago)

The television screen is dusty, I should wipe it.

jel -- (jel), Thursday, 26 August 2004 08:50 (twenty-one years ago)

I just ate three chocolate biscuits, rendering completely pointless the pasta salad and low fat yoghurt I brought with me for lunch.

The ream of lilac paper I have just opened is not the same shade of lilac as the paper I usually order.

Archel (Archel), Thursday, 26 August 2004 08:59 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't know what to do today, maybe I'll go to Uxbridge. Or finally write about Ealing for blog 7.

jel -- (jel), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:02 (twenty-one years ago)

I've got to stay at home all tomorrow afternoon waiting for the BT engineer to show up.

beanz (beanz), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:06 (twenty-one years ago)

oh but then they'll be difficult to undo at the end of the day, what if i need to get my boots off quickly...

(hello, my name is shiny mcwhiney)

CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:09 (twenty-one years ago)

I need to pee and the toilets are two corridors away.

Onimo (GerryNemo), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:10 (twenty-one years ago)

The knot is easily disassembled if you tie it properly.

I still don't know what to wear.

suzy (suzy), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:18 (twenty-one years ago)

I've just dropped my pen and it's rolled right under my desk. Like just a bit too far to roll it back with my foot.

Penelope_111 (Penelope_111), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:19 (twenty-one years ago)

i need to pee and the toilets are two FLOORS away, stairs and everything..

CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:21 (twenty-one years ago)

you'll have to get the aim just right steve!

jel -- (jel), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:22 (twenty-one years ago)

I need to pee too. I can't leave reception for another 25 minutes.

Archel (Archel), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:26 (twenty-one years ago)

the words "pee" and "too" merged in my eye just then.

i'm hungry :( and lunch isn't for another 30 mins yet.

ken c (ken c), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:27 (twenty-one years ago)

I hate my job. Actually, that's not really such a trivial problem, is it?

Ricardo (RickyT), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:29 (twenty-one years ago)

nope not really Ric :(

I should've gone and got me haircut today, it's too late now. I won't get a haircut after 10:30am, it's a waste of a day off otherwise. Oh, okay, maybe I will go to Uxbridge, but I dunno, I could just watch the Transformers season 2 part 2 box set.

jel -- (jel), Thursday, 26 August 2004 09:31 (twenty-one years ago)

I need to go again. Also, I have had too much coffee and my keyboard looks kind of fuzzy and jumpy.

Archel (Archel), Thursday, 26 August 2004 13:20 (twenty-one years ago)

I have got to weigh-in tonight after 2 weeks of moving house take-aways!

PinXor (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 26 August 2004 13:26 (twenty-one years ago)

I have to do billing today, which I loathe.

Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Thursday, 26 August 2004 13:39 (twenty-one years ago)

My mouse is tracking a bit funny and needs to be cleaned.

Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Thursday, 26 August 2004 13:49 (twenty-one years ago)

I think I need a couple new pairs of socks.

Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Thursday, 26 August 2004 13:49 (twenty-one years ago)

My boots aren't polished as nice as I would like.

Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Thursday, 26 August 2004 13:50 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm fretting about stuff I posted on newsgroups 7 or 8 years ago, which make me look a complete idiot.

How was I to know it would all be preserved for prosperity, and available to anyone who can search google?

Bob Six (bobbysix), Thursday, 26 August 2004 14:02 (twenty-one years ago)

It's too chilly in here and I need a haircut.

n.a. (Nick A.), Thursday, 26 August 2004 14:04 (twenty-one years ago)

(the shoelace tip worked by the way suzy, but then i kind of knew it would, it was just like, y'know, a pain ;))

also my bag is heavy because it's full of cds and i have to cart it about whilst i try and buy some headphones for tonight...

CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Thursday, 26 August 2004 14:05 (twenty-one years ago)

my copy of Pink Floyd's The Wall is kind of scratched and won't import into iTunes well.

also, OSX Server's lookupd has a nasty feature/bug in it

Jaunty Alan (Alan), Thursday, 26 August 2004 14:21 (twenty-one years ago)

My fingertips are still slightly itchy! It had to have been a food allergy from the pepper I chopped up to try in a tomato sauce last night, it was the only new ingredient I was using opposed to the previous time.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 26 August 2004 14:23 (twenty-one years ago)

I accidentally knocked the screen out of my window last night and it fell in the yard to which I have no access. So I left a note to the people on the first floor to please retrieve my screen and leave it in the hall for me. I hope they do this and I hope I can put it back in because I hate having to keep that one particular window shut.

Je4nne ƒury (Jeanne Fury), Thursday, 26 August 2004 14:25 (twenty-one years ago)

i kinda want a chocolate malt even though ice cream gives me stomach aches & i made a deal that i wouldn't eat sweets during the week, only on the weekend.
