The Things I Read
I was way too hungover to blog today. [Ed. Note: Why, why do I never learn not to mix wine and beer? It is like this every single time. It's not rude to reject a beer on the grounds that you've been drinking wine all night...]
Yeah, so it was great. I spent most of the day at State Library doing newspaper research. The Canberra Times is a broadsheet, which means I had to turn it sideways to scan the articles I needed. Being lazy (and be-headached), it was just far too much effort to right the pages each time, especially as I was generally scanning every other page.
Now I haven’t tested this theory empirically, but I think fast-scrolling is far more nausea-inducing when it’s scrolling up, rather than to the left. Trying to read words coming from below as they whizzed past me did not help the pounding in my skull.
Five and a half hours I did that today. Pleasant. Which is probably why I just looked blankly at the sushi lady when she informed me that my only non-mayonnaise-containing choices were kimchi or seasoned squid. I didn’t say anything - just turned and walked out the door.
So I give Slut Machine a lot of credit for making me laugh hysterically in her attempts to make a chocolate cast of her own vagina. I feel that I shouldn’t need to add that this is highly unsafe for work.
Also, my friend gave me a link to Garfield Minus Garfield, which I have been checking nearly obsessively since yesterday.
