The 'What happened to you today' thread

[Тeatime]

I started planning a project that includes colouring milk green, blue and red.

[The Tom]

All I can think of is Star Wars, and that only covers blue. What the hell are you doing?

[Тeatime]

It's a psychological experiment!

[The Tom]

Well, it's working. All I can think about is an odd-coloured suspension of fatty solids in water.

Cravendale is the only milk I'm aware of that doesn't come in see-through bottles and is therefore easy to dye a stupid colour without anyone noticing. As I found out a few years ago, when you live with someone who is pretty much always stoned this becomes absolutely hilarious. I'll never forget the look on his face the first time he poured blue milk all over his Frosties.

I have done nothing all day but wait for my entire system to Defragment . took 9 hours!!!

Holy crap! How fragmented was your system? Unless you were using Windows 98. I have bad memories of that sometimes taking two days.

Oh, and I just so happened to pwn everyone at shooting today with my 95 points. That almost never happens. It might have been because I had the only working rifle, now that I think about it.

At work we invented a game called 'Nut And Bolt Sweepstakes' which keeps us entertained for literally seconds.

There are some quite large discrepancies between how many bolts we apparently have and how many we actually have, chiefly because the mechanics, instead of coming into the shop and doing all the paperwork for them, just slip a handful into their pockets and get back to work. So, every time we find a box of nuts or bolts with only 3 or 4 in it, we type the part number into the computer, and just before whoever does it hits Enter, everyone in the vicinity has to hazard a guess as to how many we are supposed to have, the one who guesses the closest obviously winning.

The best example is when I glanced in a box which contained 2 bolts which we are supposed to have over 400 of.

Woke up at 1:30 due to cat on bed. Woke up again at 4:00 due to smell of cat pee on bed. Threw cat off bed.. Cleaned up, attempted to get back to sleep. Woken at 5-minute intervals by cat who was apparently a) bored and b) hungry. Fed cat at 5:00. Was allowed to sleep until 5:30, when cat decided to jump on bed again. Kept on being woken at 5-minute intervals until about 6:00 (which is 15 minutes before I need to get up). Now that I'm up, dressed and fully awake, cat is peacefully asleep.

Wow rough night... I didn't know that a cat could be so.. well.. annoying. They're still cute though .

I have a dog and he whined/howled a lot when we just bought him (and took him away from his mother and brothers/sisters). But after a few days it ended and now he's happy. I hope .

Yeah, he can be horribly annoying but the rest of the time he's so sweet that I quickly forget what a terror he is at night.

Our dog whined so much when we first got him that he had to sleep on my brother's bed for the first few nights, but that ended when my brother stepped off the bed and into dog poop. Dogs appear to adjust more easily than cats in gerneral, though.

Ontopic: Slept much better last night, cat mewed at door at 3:30, so I let him in, fed him and went back to sleep. Woke up at 6:15 with cat peacefully purring behind my back. Then I had coffee, read a bit, took a shower and now I'm here. Rest of the day will be spent studying, fetching my brother from school and making lucnh and dinner, since my mom is in bed with backpain.

Today I went out with my friends, and we ate pizza, talked about random things and did an extremely interesting psychological test about a horse, a forest, a desert, a bucket of water, a sea, a wall and a key It was all the more funny because the girl who conducted it was a bit in the Reynald Jemane state

Shut it. I'm a folk harmonica legend in the making, I just need something to occupy myself with during the day.

Hehe nice.no offense meant

I had my first GCSE today - French Speaking. It went well, until I accidentally described my school's uniform as 'dangereuse'. Oh well. From what the teacher was writing down, I think I got pretty high marks. Now it's just Russian speaking next week and I'm done. Pity it's going to be my hardest exam.

I second that.

Me, I am reading Dostoevsky Just started the last book on the reading list for the Russian Literature summer exam. When I am done, I will only have some stuff left for the Medieval and Renaissance Literature exam, and then I will rule the world even more than I do now

[The Tom]

Dostoevsky? Damn... We did 'Little Red Riding Hood' (or красная шапочка if you will) and the depressing thing was that it was so much harder than anything I ever encountered in my exams.

Basically, three-year-olds speak better Russian than me.
