in which I hate Mondays
Aug. 29th, 2011 04:10 pmSo yesterday was quite fun. Stayed in pjs all day and watched a bunch of things on telly, including something called The Great British Bake Off which Mum keeps wanting me to remind her about when it's on, but I remember the controversy (ie the epic argument we had) the morning after the last Masterchef winner was announced, so maybe I'll keep forgetting ;)
I've basically been making the most of my brother's tv before he comes back from the West Country at the beginning of next week to reclaim it. My GameCube is hooked up to it at the moment, which is always awesome.
Key to defeating the Fire Temple: Play whac-a-mole with a pissed off ancient dragon and SMASH ITS HEAD IN with a hammer.
Key to defeating the Water Temple: Hook the water monster and STAB REPEATEDLY UNTIL DED.
And then there was today. Woke up at about 4 this morning rather violently ill, and I'm now in the middle of affixing stupid press studs to stupid aprons. There are 50 aprons. 8 studs apiece makes 400 of the stupid things to affix.
...I've done 4 aprons and that took me almost an hour. Going to keep going until my ratio of successfully applied to mangled studs becomes dangerous.
(I'm calling them stupid because the alternative can't be repeated on daytime tv. On the other hand, smashing the stupid things with a hammer is excellent anger management.)
On the plus side I'm all out of family birthdays \o/ I really, really don't like August all that much. The next two aren't until October, so that's alright :D
