Automatic announcements on trains have taken a turn for the sinister… talking about CCTV and smoke detectors in toilet

Waiting in chemist for pharmacist to become free so I can be sold painkillers. She’s on the phone talking about her experiences with ghosts.
Best spam in ages “The goats, if I tell the Pope, and perhaps he will find you and - This is where you have it you who gave the Joker? YES?”
Had a long complex dream about Alan Moore holding a party in King’s Cross Station. Somehow he’d managed to make the party move about in time
Safari 4 freaks me out a bit with those top mounted tabs. It’s bit like meeting someone whose arms come out of the sides of their head…
Begone Foul Fiend! http://ping.fm/9w0E1

Gmail has fallen over… this is unexpected and feels as if gravity has developed a fault or the moon is temporarily unavailable.
The “teens” are slightly curved and go uphill, getting steadily steeper from 17 to 20.
I’ve always visualized numbers as being organized spatially in a very particular arrangement. There’s a very sharp corner between 10 and 11.
It was too cloudy yesterday to get up in the middle of the night to look for the comet…
Forgot I was on the 49 bus and ended up in Moulsecoomb
Wind is from the downs today… you can smell the cow dung!
Sometimes wake up in the morning with the solution to coding/web problems I’ve been mulling over. Wish it also worked with bits of my novel!

Spent two and a half hours in the pub last night without drinking alcohol. Pubs smell bad these days since the demise of smoking.
Trying desperately to leave the house before noon. It seems to be almost impossible.
Admirable Adama
My website’s been hacked, pos. due 2 a ProjectPier installation I was trying. Anyone else had same probs? Code added to top of all PHP files

Sometimes worried my tweets may be a bit weather centric. But then again look at @DAVID_LYNCH ‘s feed!
Right, back to work tomorrow I hope!
Being ill seems to last longer these days… :(
… and there it is. Spring is finally in the air.
Gah! Still feel ill :( Rehearsal went well though…
Is Ping.fm working? It seemed to lose my last message… about always being ill at the weekend.
Moaning about rude aisle-sitting fellow passengers in rush hour. When you ask to sit down, the dirty looks you get!

As a result of watching Horizon last night I dreamed about lucid dreaming… rather than just doing lucid dreaming

Rum for your life
There are more police than people in Seven Sisters

Seems to be stopping everywhere - including Redhill. Damnit.
On train up to London. No WiFi.
My new fridge is big enough to hide in
