0400hrs: I stirred into imitation life and awaited the body and mind to loosely link-up together. Things felt a little odd, apart from the little bit of rumbling from the innards, all the other ailments were in an excellent calm mood with me. This can’t last!
I rose out of the £300 second-hand recliner and went to get the Health Checks done.
Had a wee-wee.
Made a brew and took this photograph that came out rather poorly, considering I was using the new Lumix camera?
Popped into the wet room to use the Porcelain Throne. A loose little evacuation, mostly wind.
The weather looked bleak, misty and a little showery.
I took this photograph with the Lumix, and it seemed to be working okay for this poor effort of mine, at a decent picture.
The drilling outside started again around 0840hrs, but it was short-lived and sounded farther away than yesterday.
I recognised that avoiding this disaster was not my own fault and gornisht helfn. But shame and self-loathing came to the fore.
After freshening up, I returned to the kitchen to make another small mug of tea. I took a diarrhorea capsule and left the others on the counter to get to later. In case the next
The temperature in the kitchen was a high 69°f. Still looking a little gloomy out there.
My spirits were lower than ever now. Especially when I realised that going out today, to the camera shop or getting some bread and milk in stock, was out of the question. Far too risky, I do not want to risk getting ‘Caught Short’ again by another Diarrhoea David attack.
I thought about just leaving doing this post altogether, such was my melancholia. But my being a graphomaniac, I didn’t.
I decided to refill the vinegar bottle. I rinsed it out and went to the window ledge and thought I’d tore off a piece of paper towel to fry the bottle with.
Back onto the computer, all confused and struggling to gain full control of my faculties, I thought.
I reflected on the Whoopsiedangleplops affecting me so far today:
- The new Lumix camera viewer-screen, dying on me.
- WordPress, Grammarly, Google Chrome, Firefox and computer problems, apparently having been caused by the MS Windows update?
- Diarrhorea David’s Blitzkrieg Attack and the resultant shame and uncertainties.
- Liberty-Virgin internet repeatedly losing connections failures.
- The paper-towel incident and injuries.
- Losing the SDH card? – Then my finding it in the first place that I’d looked for it?
The way this morning has gone, I sort of expected this Whoopsiedangleplop list to have been longer.
No bread, no milk, no hope! Hehehe!
Conceivably, the diarrhorea might ease-off, and the weather is alright in the morning so I can have a walk into Sherwood to get the bread and milk, in.
I’m still puzzled as to why another follow-up attack from the rear-end has not come… Yet awhile anyway! But, I can feel that the churning is still fermenting in the guts.
The workmen didn’t do their drilling for long this morning. Noisy Herbert above compensated for this, with regular banging about. Then just before noon, what sounded like a door being closed-shut with venom and strength from above. No more sonances then. I’m not complaining. Oh No! Not after being told he is doing nothing wrong in following his hobby and being noisy as long as it is between 0800hrs and 2000hrs, by the Cat-Walk model and Nottingham City Homes Gruppenfurheress Manager. It might yet prove fatal though. One can only take so much while being ignored. I wonder if he is rich, well endowed or has he any influential friends? Hehehe!
I considered going to the shops again, but would I be lucky enough? No, best leave it until tomorrow and see how things are then.
Health Checks were done.
I was unsure of what to have for the nosh, bearing in mind the Diarrhorea Davids attentions, and not wanting to encourage or inspire them.
Got sidetracked, off for another visit to the Porcelain Throne. Again it was close getting there in time, but I managed it.
Turned on the TV to watch some episodes of Rumpole of the Baily.
I settled my body down in the £300 second-hand recliner and tucked into the plate of fodder.
I thought that fish might be the safest food, so made a meal of fish fingers in batter, the cod portion I had to throw away, it tasted dodgy to me, so I did not risk eating it. The Scottish Smoked Mackerel tasted good.
I couldn’t eat all of it.
I feared the Trotskies would return in the night.
But they didn’t. Well, not until the early morning.
I haven’t felt so dismal or such a no-hoper in my life.
Maybe Herbert has a meth lab equivalent of steam models going on, and you have the “Breaking Bad” equivalent, let’s call it “Banging Bad” going on up above you. Could explain a lot.
They say loose lips sink ships (L3008 above?). Loose bowels whoopsiedangleplops and howls. Seems wet and gloomy all around.
Good old Rumpole of the Baily! I used to watch Rumpole back when I had a TV over 36 years ago. I loved Rumpole and still use the line “She who must be obeyed!”
My Firefox updates automatically, but I’m also on the beta channel so I’m always 2 or 3 versions ahead of the stable version. I’m not surprised WP would give you problems, the developers are always dicking around with WP and breaking it for no apparent reason other than they need to do something to seem like they are useful, and earning their pay. But I would think FF would stay current with your Windows updates.
Banging ones head from paper towels rolling across the floor is common, dangerous and under reported. You are a million times more likely to be injured from paper towels rolling across the floor than, lets say, being bitten by a Black Mamba, for example.
Your Liberty-Virgin Internet seems to be pretty well screwed. Or it’s at least it’s screwing you pretty well. They should have a motto like “You want the liberty of being screwed by a virgin? Sign up for Liberty-Virgin Internet and we’ll take the liberty of screwing you early (as soon as you sing up) and often.”
Herbert was not as bad this weekend overall – compared to his usual weekend cocophany, that is. Perhaps, with it being a Bank Holiday, he went off to visit his friends at the “Annoy your neighbours & enjoy it” composium? Hehe!
I have all the series of Rumpole on DVD. I love the satire and unsoken words humour.
Firefox and Facebook frustrate me, Sir.

Are genius comments, I fang you!
Maybe you can sign Herbert up for a 12 step “Annoy your neighbors Anonymous” program.
Perhaos I could join in, Tim?
OR not. Haha!
