The slime that coats my inside head bones
Ok, tiny, tinny, foolish, great idea created by boring work of the day:
1) Everyone likes animals. Animals are cute.
2) Everyone likes So Duko. So Duko are ..ummm.. well, I don't know why, but they're good.
Therefore:
Animal Soduko!
On a grid of 9X9, you have to fill it in so that each line horizontally and vertically, and each box contains one (and only one) of each of the following nine categories of animal:
Mammal
Reptile
Bird
Amphibian
Insect
Arachnid
Fish
Gastropod
Politician
(disputes over categorisation to be decided by a system of duels, wherein combatants pelt each other with slices of soap until one party is defeated/clean)
Here's one for you to try yourself!
Back to Ballistics
There may be a problem with my elbows. They look fairly normal, a cross between padded coathangers and chicken’s feet, but I’m not sure they are fully functional. Somewhere between the little pulses sent out by my brain and the typing tips of my fingers, something is getting lost. Maybe I lean on them too much. The full weight of my chin is not to be dismissed lightly.
My fingers don’t even seem to be typing much – note lack of recent blog entries. I should nag them more.
Yesterday I had a very nice evening eating spinach soup with Tamsyn, Ziqian and Leila. We did a poetry workshop, and the two poems I managed to rivet together were about headphones, and Wittgenstein. And rubbish. Ribbush. Baggage. Mind you, this won’t stop me handing them in, if needs be…
Badminton tonight, so a bit of token running around and swearing at work colleague. 10 points if you manage to leave a mark. I won’t tell you about the funniness of Anna’s damaging her nose on a glass door, because I’m fairly sure she’ll have mentioned it on her blog. (See favourites).
Officially, of course, I’m at work, so am not typing this. You must have imagined it.
