Having spent two days feeling far too cold and not able to think, something I blamed on lack of sleep and dietary wanderings, I've come to the conclusion that actually I had the cold.  I feel far more alive today, so hopefully will get stuff done.

I still made a major fuckup yesterday, turning off my phone for a morning meeting and then forgetting to turn it back on, leading to me missing a phone call from Adam, who was over for an interview.  I'd been going to meet up with him at some point, and that point turned out to be "lunchtime", which I remained blissfully unaware of.  I already apologised to Adam on the phone, but I'm going to loudly state for his benefit "Adam, I'm really sorry, I clearly suck donkey cock.", which will hopefully amuse him enough to have him eventually forgive me.

Also, due to dentist appointments and leaving early for cinema/gaming, I'm currently running an hour down on flexitime, so I'll be working a bit late today/tomorrow to catch up on that.  Not that I mind particularly, as my brain is now working again.

Oh, also haven't read LJ in two days, so tonight may largely consist of me going back over 200 entries.  I suspect the friends list will get a bit of a clearout, as has happened a few times recently.  It's not that I dislike anyone I've removed - I just don't have the time to read everyone.

And now to work...

You could always change your default view instead of removing friends.
That way people can still read your Friends Only posts and there isn't the risk of causing offence by removing people from your list.

I felt worse having people thinking I was reading them when I wasn't. I'd rather be honest about it. And I have about three friends-only posts a year.

ilu.

Don't worry. I barely registered. I was pretty blisfully happy after the positive interview I had. Well, I say positive.... it wasn't chock full of fuck ups like "I like to bugger monkeys" and "I skinned my mother and wore her face like a hat".

:D

Read my journal for an excellent book reccomendation. At least, I hope it's excellent. I'm only half way through myself. And have to go to bed now. :(

Is that a typical facet of English English?

I'm really entertained by the way your syntax surrounding the disease "cold" is analogous to that of the disease "clap." That is, you said "the cold," and not "a cold," as I might say with "the clap." Which I don't have.

I hope that made sense.

Mistype, I'm afraid. I had "a" cold. If I had Flu, that would be The Flu. Leprosy doesn't get a The in front of it tho. Nor does nythingelse I can think of.

Very odd.
