It took me an hour and a half to get into work this morning.
Every road I turned onto had a traffic jam.
Interesting stuff, no?
No.
...
In other news,
"Oh, and we almost made it through this year without any pregnancies" was the sentiment flying around The Little School of Horrors yesterday.
A girl, one with eyes that give better evils than any character on Eastenders, is pregnant.
Put aside any cliches, any generalisations and any knowledge of Britain's benefit system you may have procured after 4 years of daytime TV and Jeremy Kyle; the first time you hear a 15 year old girl say that she's having a baby in order to get a house will shock you. You're eyes will shut, you will sigh, shake your head. We know it happens, but to hear that the words have been said, to know who said them and to see her through the window, rolling up and lighting a cigarette with her school mates is another thing entirely.

Today will be a constructive day
I'm not even going to sneak a look at the Jeremy Kyle show...promise...not even if I'm eating my breakfast in front of the telly and it "happens" to come on.
Mental, I got up at like 8am today (partly because the cleaner was up and banging about and dropping things. The sign of a lazy cleaner who doesn't take things off the shelf before attempting to clean it, if you ask me) and have already been super constructive.
Decided to actually not waste the £400 I spent on a feature writing course in mid June and actually, err, write some features. I'm thinking of doing one on work experience, pros, cons etc, how to make the most of it, etc, snooze, yawn, burp. I'm about to go to the library and have a sift through a press guide to get some inspiration. See? Constructive, if not all that interesting.
I've also been paid! (joke, I transferred some money from my savings account so it's a little bit like pay day for the self-unemployed) and need to get some bits for holiday (you may have missed the twitter updates on the joy of finding a cheap hotel in Athens NOT located on a side street occupied by prostitutes - all suggestions welcome)...so will attempt to do this on le cheapo today.
On the other hand I got a real craving for shoes last night and the ones I was looking at don't really fit with the whole on le cheapo idea...but there is every chance they will cure the feeling of utter uselessness I currently have residing within my largely inactive brain.
Onwards. And I'm not even being un-constructive by blogging, it's better to blog in the morning with what I'm going to do today, rather than later with all the things I didn't do.
Ipso-Facto-Geronimooooo
