It’s Saturday. The snow has melted away in the overnight rain and the temperature is 2c.<\/p>\n
So why does it feel absolutely bitter, colder than it has done all week?<\/p>\n
Or maybe it’s me; perhaps everyone else can feel the benefit of a daytime temperature that’s four degrees warmer than it has been at this time of day.<\/p>\n
Noon.<\/p>\n
Anyway.<\/p>\n
Do you know anyone who would like a chance to make a pop video? It’s a big opportunity to make a film for an unsigned, up-and-coming band who might just be making a big impact in 2010.<\/p>\n
So could you ask the potential video-makers to get in touch with me? I will be asking this question again in the next couple of weeks.<\/p>\n
Umm, what else?<\/p>\n
Oh yes, I’ve had my haircut.<\/p>\n
I went to the glass-and-chrome decored (is that even a word?) hairdressers in the precinct in Witney. I got ‘done’ by the attractive, shapely, blonde girl and resisted the temptation to nestle my head in her bosom as she worked behind me.<\/p>\n
After I got my hair did I went to Caf\u00c3\u00a9 Rouge and joined Sophie and her colleague Lisa for a Latt\u00c3\u00a9.<\/p>\n
Lisa has man troubles, it’s a shame and she doesn’t deserve them; she’s quite sweet and very fit, but she overtalks to hide her fundamental insecurities. She also doesn’t deserve the arseholes she’s been plagued with. I’m only saying this to provide a benchmark; I’m a discerning, choosy kind of guy, but if I was single and in the market? I probably would.<\/p>\n
After Latt\u00c3\u00a9 and gossip, Soph and I went to the cinema and bought two tickets for tonight’s 3D showing of Avatar.<\/p>\n
And then we came home where we are now on the couch watching Dennis Hopper ham it up in Speed, and admiring the gorgeous Sandra Bullock.<\/p>\n
As soon as Speed is over I’m going up to the stables to ride Vin and Tom. I expect to have the piss taken out of me because of my haircut.<\/p>\n
Umm…<\/p>\n
My laptop has started having tantrums. It’s done three memory dumps in four days. There are no I\/O or hardware conflicts (as far as hardware goes, the laptop is still in its factory spec) and I’ve rolled back the system to 1st Jan which predates the memory-dumping by a long while. Needless to say it hasn’t fixed the problem.<\/p>\n
Dell Support say the problem is BIOS or possibly motherboard-related. The laptop is under full warranty, but being without it while it’s being fixed would hurt me. And I disagree with Dell Support, I strongly suspect the Wireless adapter is the cause.<\/p>\n
Right, gotta go. Sandra Bullock is pouting attractively at me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
