Jus' bloggin about my day
Come on, you can say it, I don't blog enough about day-to-day stuff, do I? Yeah I know, it's a failing. So, here goes:
My day so far:
07:00 AM
Wake up to alarm clock. Realise that I'm in a hotel room and take a few bleary moments to work out why. It's the Campanile in Fenny Stratford, but there's not clothes, makeup and crap everywhere, so it can't be for a tranny event. Remember that I'm on a 2-day SQL course in Milton Keynes. Groan inwardly.
08:30AM
I've successfully remembered the route into Central Milton Keynes from Fenny, which is basically "turn right, go straight over several hundred roundabouts, you're there!".
09:00AM
The guy sitting in front of me has an astoundingly fat neck. It's got a huge fold in it near the base of his skull, with two smaller folds either side above it. If it were a text smiley it would look like this:

The overall effect is that he's cultivating a second face on the back of his head. I swear it's staring at me.
10:00AM
Entrepreneurial idea: Set up a gourmet food company called NorthWind. Save a fortune in IT consultancy by using the default database on Microsoft SQL server.
11:00AM
SELECT event, date FROM my_life_experiences
ORDER BY boringness DESC
GO
Experience Date
---------- ----
SQL Course 5/2/2007
Watching paint dry 1/8/1987

(1872 records)
12:30PM
Why do local papers always have the best headlines? Just read a story in the local rag provided in the coffee lounge about the return of the rare egret to a local wildlife sanctuary. Headline:
Egrets, We've Had a Few, But Then Again, Too Few to Mention
Genius!
