This and that.

Firstly, muchas gracias to karohemd for the wonderful present. It's nice to know that someone who isn't me loves me enough to buy me stuff :)

Also, greetings to snapdragon_dk and weejock who have joined the group of people in my friends list. Like the voices who live in my head, my friends list make pithy comments about my life, but at least they don't order me to 'clean the streets' as often.

In other news, Hurrah for the D-Plan diet! Despite the basic principles of the diet ("Eat Less food. Take more exercise. Duh.") having recieved criticism in the past (borusa and bateleur spring to mind), according to the lard-o-meter in the gym I have shed much lard in the past month or so, without resorting to any method invloving 'sins', 'points', or special milkshakes.
Really, I should have realised that when Jenny stopped screaming and waving the Elder Sign at me when I took my shirt off, but it's nice to have it scientifically corroborated.

Other things from the weekend include the discovery that Jenny starts to vibrate up to two mintues before Alan Rickman or George Clooney appear on screen, her feminine instincts for such things obviously being highly developed, going for long walks wearing socks with holes in the heel leads to me developing blisters, and my fathers shift into a state of being wherein I didn't want to murder him was but a temporary abberation.

Its a new take on Frankenstein's monster, just with psychoanalysis.

Unfortunately, there may be nasty side effects.

So what would neuroses look like were they visible tangible entities? I reckon small, scuttly unpleasant things with too many legs & eyes, myself.

We could get them into the cam without any difficulty then, anyway.

Oh no, these don't want attention. Besides, they're far too subtle and effective for the Cam :)

Yes, and lots of tiny waving tentacles with suckers on the end. They communicate in a strange language that sounds like 'Neep Neep' to us. They feed by attaching themselves to the face and sending their tentacles up the nose and into the brain.

Hmm. I imagined a mor chittery, cockroach-like noise. And mine would hide behind your ears and feed by sliding a proboscis down your ear canal into your brain.

If you ever manage to catch one and squash it, it leaves an oily, greasy stain.

No matter how many I squash, more seem to take their place. And the really strange thing is you don't even know they are there, thats how they survive. You see them, but they don't register, you hear their strange noises, but its just background noise. Their goal is to convince you they are a part of you so that they can continue to suck
