Glowstick Madness
So having bought shed loads of glowsticks, glow bracelets, glow pendents and the like to buy my way into CBT’s good books I then proceeded to distribute 100 glow bracelets round the place. At one point I decided to do a real life version of Facebook in glow by creating a long poking stick out of glow bracelets and poke people with it. This got a little out of hand, and pretty soon 80 or so glow bracelets were put end to end and fed out of one window and in through another. More photo’s will be added when people email them, but for now here are two rubbish ones from my iPhone.
What did make me laugh is some chav came in asking if he could buy some glowsticks off me. So I sold him 2 for a quid each (he suggested the price) which had the rest of us in hysterics as I was just giving them out (the glow bracelets are less than 1p each, the glow sticks are 30odd pence. Anyway, fun night, met some more people and got a hug. All good ![]()
Death
Right. 10 minutes out. Should be in bed by 6:45 whereapon I shall die. There will be a small, simple service followed by everyone observing 8 hours of silence so I can get some sleep. The second coming should happen sometime this afternoon where I shall rise from the dead and go drool over CBT. Possibly after having a shower ![]()
Wardrobe Malfunction
So my high capacity 24 glowstick combats (yes, I rate combats on carrying capacity. They’d actually be 32 glowstick combats if it wasn’t for the fact I carry other stuff too. Most of them are only 8 or 16 glowstick) broke midway through last night. I was zipping up when most of the metal pull bit on the zip just broke off. The fly already had a tendency to descend on it’s own and now I need to use a finger nail to zip up. I think I’ll have to retire them and find a new pair. Will pop into Camden on one of my many jaunts into London.

Spare a thought for me while you’re all having fun in your offices. I’m having to spend 50 minutes sat in a park and the sun has gone behind cloud so I’m not able to fully enjoy it. I may even need to repeat the whole sitting in the park excercise at a later date to make up for it which will eat into valuable having fun time.
Bwahahaha!

This whole gardening leave is tiring. Up till the wee hours of the morning having a small stress about money (since resolved as I know how much I’m getting and I’m not going to starve just yet) and doing my CV. Up quite early, shower, read through the paperwork I got yesterday, finish CV. Head to Canary Wharf for lunch (yes, I’m a Gentleman What Lunches now, it’s great
), head back to Colchester and collect my camera, after all I’m about to become a ‘professional photographer’ since it sounds so much better than ‘I’m unemployed’. OK, so I’ll be paying myself out of my redundancy until such point as I get a job, wont actually have a photography company and wont actually be selling anything, but that’s not the point. Got home, moved my mobile tariff to a cheaper one and sorted a few other things out saving myself a few pennies each month. Now it’s shower, head off to Tai Chi. Tomorrow I’ve got a workshop on CV writing and interview technique. I’m Doing Lunch again, pick up my Sedition t-shirt, home, rest, change, London, hit the town. My life is just so tough at the moment. Bwhahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Wanted
Stunningly attractive, petite girl, 27-35, GSOH with own home and six figure salary who wants to keep a jaded, long haired miserable old git in the lifestyle he’s become accustomed to. Must be happy with me going clubbing regularly. Please apply below.
(Hey, I’m at a crossroads in my life here, I need to explore all opportunities, including that of being a kept man
)
The democratic process
Today I was shown that the democratic process does work. As we all know it’s based on the fundamentals of one man, one vote. I, however, technically (although not legally) had two votes. Even the government knows I’m special
God knows how it’s happened but I’ve been put on the electoral register twice, I got two voting cards, two voting numbers and, unlike possibly everyone else in the country, got to choose which me was going to vote.
And people wonder how I got such a huge god complex
As to who I voted for I’ll not say, but I was rather tempted to add a new box and put Ken down and vote for him. Waste of a vote, I know, but I don’t think any of the other idiots on offer were much of a choice either. In the end I went for my usual lot because… well… it’s what I always vote now Monster Raving Loony is no longer an option.

SoTW: Special Cat Edition
Since Cat is probably not in the right frame of mind to be listening to depressing FLA tracks I present her with an alternate track to listen to: the KPMG corporate song. For those thinking it’s a little lame there are remixes to be found here and here (for a very silly version). Beware, much cheese. ![]()
