April Sunday afternoon
A vaguely depressing day. My hearts been messing about (I have a murmur as well as MS) and I’ve been a bit low on energy. Still, I’ve managed to do some gardening and cook dinner.
The girl’s being a bit of a nightmare today. She’s had two major hissy fits already, the last one being the worst as it was about me being ill, which she just doesn’t get. I’ve been trying to explain to her why I sometimes can’t come on days out because I’m ill. She just blames me for being ill. Very depressing. We’ve planned a day out to Canterbury. I never look forward to days out partly because they are real tests of endurance for me, but mainly because she is usually a total cow. The boy’s an angel, but she has tantrums over the clothes, the food… everything. She’s a nightmare when she’s home. A perfect student, but not the dream daughter. There’s something of a power struggle going on.
On a lighter note – we watched Zack and Miri make a porno. Kevin Smith is back on form, and it may be his best yet. After the OTT wordy dialogue from Dogma, the return to ass-based humour was a real improvement. Not one for the kiddies. Jason looked pretty healthy too.I must be on the same wavelength as Kevin Smith because I came up with ‘Star Whores’ as the name of the sci-fi porno too. I think I may have seen a few minutes of Deep Space 69 long ago…
I think the only Kevin Smith film I haven’t watched so far is Jersey girl. Big fans of the Askewniverse in this household. The old man has the books and the comics too. I married a fanboy.
I’ma bit off blogging at the moment- I’m only averaging one entry every other day at the moment. Lack of inspiration mainly…I’m like Dr House with out a case, I’m a bit lost without a research subject to drive me. I’m currently trying to track down DNA studies from mummies.. I may have to start annoying professionals with emails. I’m also trying to assemble the Y chromosome info from Egypt into an understandable form for my own reference. The overall foreign input from non dynastic people seems to be pretty minimal, I’ll run it past some of the forum members for a critique before I post it.
Funniest moment on the forum this week was when Bass proved he couldn’t read a dendrogram.. LOL.
