Yes I'm aware my house is on the edge of a wood and looks a little run-down. Yes, I'm aware that is unusual.

But you'd think the chest-high fences and the huge fuck-off red signs with "Keep Out" written on them would be an indication THAT I DO NOT WANT YOU IN MY FUCKING GARDEN?!

Why the fuck aren't you allowed to hurt trespassers? Because I sure would love to. Even barbed wire and traps aren't legal! If someone gets hurt on your land they have a right to sue you even...

10 hours into the grace period I finally submitted my last assignment for my OU course... By the skin of my teeth. Been awake working on it for a day and a half except for 2 short power naps when my concentration dipped that much. Harsh.

Procrastination is NOT your friend folks. Maybe I'll wait until I get over my depression left over from my recent relationship failure before starting another uni course. Those two things didn't mix very well, especially not combined with game addiction....

And now for something incredibly boring and mundane.

For my Uni course I've had to read about the history of London, particularly the 1800s where they had no sewers, everybody flushed their crap into the Thames river, which infected the water table that people were also drinking from, and dying of cholera.

The government didn't do shit about it (literally, hehe) until the Great Stink event during the unusually hot summer of 1858, where the smell of the sewage coming...

I was sitting in the train on the way back from town today, and while waiting for it to leave the terminus I overheard a conversation between two passengers. As you do. And the story that one told to the other was typical for Essex - And just like a TV soap storyline.

Apparently, one of the passengers has a lodger who is sleeping on her floor and is being fed by her - The lodger being a 50 year old man, who's fallen on very hard times.

He married a 30-year-old woman,...

... Is the saying. It's true, you know (except perhaps it should be "Buy low quality, buy twice"). I bought a bicycle 4 years ago which was being sold on offer by the local bike shop, and now it's so broken and there's so much wrong with it that it's not even worth repairing - And half the parts aren't even original because they broke after one year.

So yeah, learn to know a good deal from a bad one. I could've bought a better quality bike with the money I've spent on this thing to...

... You dream of it being infected with a virus and you lose control of it and all your data. Then you wake up and consider that to be a nightmare.

I need to get out more.

I'm sure at least one of you has had this problem.

For the past 3-4 days I've been trying to sleep at a reasonable time of night, but I'm not tired so just end up lying there and getting bored. Then I get up and do stuff intending to stay awake the entire day so I can sleep at a reasonable time the next day (which worked for me in the past) - But then I get too tired to function and go to bed at about 8-10am intending to nap for a couple of hours.

Even though my alarm...

EDIT:
Now that I've eaten something, being really, really tipsy has worn off quick. Maybe I should lay off the cider... Or go full force with vodka and cola so at least any drunk blogs that I post are entertaining, unlike how this one was.


EDIT 2:

Okay, I'll tell a mildly amusing* story about vodka and cola, and perhaps why you shouldn't drink that shit mixed together.

Back in 2008 I was in Leipzig with my GF I had at that time. We took...

AUGH YES LEMME PAY, FFS!

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

There's a shitty ad banner across the top of YouTube. Every time I log onto the site I get this waddling at me:

Yeah, people come in all shapes and sizes. I don't have a problem with that at all. What I do have a problem with is something that takes up a significant proportion of my tiny 17" screen being waved in my face, and not by my choice (unless I don't go to YouTube), that's...
