The Importance of Being Idle

Gonna Fly Now!

Today has been much better. Still not as good as the highs of last week, but a marked improvement none the less.
It didn't start out like that though, oh no. It wasn't Archie making a fuss this morning, it was somebody's car (or possibly alarm). How you don't know that it's your car (or house) that's shrieking fit to wake the dead I can't imagine, because clearly who ever it belonged to had no idea it was keeping the rest of the street awake. I was starting to have visions of going outside and murdering said car (or indeed house) with an axe, although where I was going to get the axe (or indeed the energy to get out of bed) I can't imagine. It did shut up in the end though.
I did my best to fix the keyboard tray this morning, although that wasn't an easy task at all. It was pretty much completely fucked, and keyboard kept falling on the floor and such, but given where it is and how it fits onto the desk (ie, it's screwed on underneath), fixing it has not been easy. That is of course even assuming that it stays in it's current only-slightly-dodgy state, which isn't guaranteed at all. If it does fall apart altogether though, I'm buggered if I know how I'll replace it. Ah well, these things may never come to pass.
The rest of the day has been uneventful, and I can't for the life of me work out what it is that I've been doing all day, but I can conclude that it can't have been very interesting at all! Oh wait, I remember, I was reading some comic books! All Star Batman and Robin (which was quite obviously brilliant, what with it being written by Frank Miller and all), Grant Morrisons All Star Superman (which was an oddly lovely throwback to classic I-can-do-anything Superman), and Jeph Loeb's wonderful Batman & Superman. So it was a happy afternoon then! I do miss comic books, just wish they weren't so darned expensive these days... ah well.
