Today's things:
1. Boiler wasn't working this morning so I had to have a freezing cold shower. I am now ready and prepared to swim the Antarctic (cursing and bitching all the way).
2. Upon exiting my death-shower, I discovered the washing I'd put in last night was not, as I had expected, still in the machine awaiting hanging. It had instead been mashed into a sodden, mildewy ball and thoughtfully left rotting in its own moistness on the leather armchair. My housemate's washing was instead in the machine and, residing smugly on the radiators (where my washing would have loved to have been and, as first-washed, had their rightful place) was same housemate's boyfriend's washing. Said boyfriend does not live in our house nor pay our bills, nor has his near-constant presence ever been discussed with me or the remaining housemate. This act of vandalism was enough for me to make sure I slammed all doors near her room especially hard on my way out.
3. I accidentally blocked a junction on my way home and the car just pulled right into my path and the occupants (Daily Mail readers) sat slow-clapping and bad-mouthing me whilst we all waited for the traffic to move. I did a comic doubletake and, after some searching, found the Vs I was looking for in my pockets. They were duly flipped. Then I felt bad, because I'm supposed to be being polite to people these days.
4. Just came home and realised I don't have any food. I really would like some food.
5. Boy Who Is A Tosser now looks like Elvis Presely and once again sits near me. I'm intrigued to find that I no longer have the desire to do rude things to him, however, and not just because of the image-change. I just don't think it's fair to get involved with someone new while I'm still emotionally involved with someone I can't see anymore (Merlin).
6. Tomorrow is the Supply Chain Bash and I am so bloody excited!
7. The shower is working now and I just spent forty minutes languishing in the opulance.
8. I've spent a lot of the day researching MAs because it's that time of year again for me to pretend I'm going back to uni next autumn.
