Over and Done With
Posted: Wed 3 January, 2007 Filed under: Cynicism, Festering Season 1 Comment »
How can you tell that the Festering Season is finally over and done with?
Because now all the adverts on TV are for either :
- sales
- diets
- stopping smoking
or - holidays
Now we’ve got rid of the materialistic crap of new posessions etc., we’re on to the ‘resolutions’ and ‘future plans’ bits of the marketing maven’s bible.
Resolutions

Except, being an awkward old bastard, I started mine back in November.
So there’s no list of ‘what I plan’ for ’07, because it’s all back there. And so far, the progress is going pretty well, thanksk for asking…
Away again

It’ll be a slow day, as we’ll be in an area where even mobile coverage fears to tread.
Me? I predict a lot of dog-walking…
Thank Christ, it’s nearly over

Still, that’s it over with for another year. So not entirely bad then…
Unexpected Gift

Of course, something saying who it was from would’ve been useful…
But anyway, thank you – the book looks interesting, so I’ll give it a go over the next few days.
Yodel-eh-i-ooooooo

Oh, and then staying overnight at the über-swanky St. Martin’s Lane Hotel. As you can see, I’m being paid way too much.
Reviews of both will be provided when we return.
Music

I could cry.
Bah, fuckin’ humbug indeed.
Still, at least the header image on D4D™ automatically changed today, so that worked. *grin*
