The Drudgeries of a Sunday...

Nothing sunny about my Sundays. Or as a matter of fact any Sundays... I hate Sundays... really!!... and I detest this particular one… the sun aint shining... it rarely ever does in Glasgow ... and I woke up with a hang over... strangely I don’t remember touching alcohol the night before... and then I had to live with the fact that the Argentines... the Brazilians and the English (the Scotts are happy about the last bit) got knocked out of the World cup…why? And my head… argghhh!!! It hurts like hell... the migraine is back… I missed my old friend… kept me great company on long lonely nights back in Law School...

So what am I doing right now… well nothing constructive and I would love to keep it that way… (Don’t even know why I am writing this...). My dissertation isn’t going no where… (At least for now) and I don’t know how I am going to go about it... really the thought of all the impending work makes me wanna curl up and sleep forever..(But just for the record am an insomniac... so sleep is a luxury I can’t afford). And my room... holy wow my room…. The Americans nuked it (really)… I was peacefully lying in bed and listening to ‘Toad and the Wet Sprocket’ when I saw a B- 52 ‘Flying Fortress’ fly by... I wondered why though (it’s not everyday that ya see a mother of all bombers fly by... do ya now?)…. A strange whizzing sound followed and it surely wasn’t the music I had on… and then... an earth shattering BANG…. Silence and smoke for the longest time... I think I even coughed and almost choked… and then the dust cleared…. my wee room resembled the Nagasaki countryside… empty bottles on the floor... an over flowing bin... cig butts everywhere …coffee mugs with ash…. and my books... hell my books… all gone… Bush had just nuked my room…but why me... why my room… I have no links with Al Qaida... Or even Uncle Osama... and hell yeah I had nothing to do with the Iranian nuclear project.
But then no point crying over spilt milk… I guess ill just have to live with the affects of a radiation cloud… maybe that explains the migraine…

Back to boredom… it’s touched a new height... a new extreme... am reading Pete’s blog… a must read for all spending a Sunday like mine... http://users.livejournal.com/_alphafrog_/
The music’s changed to ‘Tell Her’ by Del Amitri… thank you Pete (he mailed me the song… but ain’t that music piracy… Pete my friend you gonna get into trouble for this)… this boredom is gonna kill me... I am all set to explode... just what the world needs a self combusting specimen…like me… it would be a great read in the papers tomorrow though.

ASIAN MAN SELF COMBUSTS, DAMAGES ESTIMATED TO BE IN BILLIONS OF POUNDS

Glasgow: A 26 year old man of Asian origin, self combusted in his room last evening. This is the first such reported incident in Scotland, eyewitness were all blinded by the light that emanated from the room where the above mentioned incident took place. They are all admitted in the Royal Infirmary and are all set to file a damages claim suit against the University of Strathclyde for not equipping their rooms with anti glare screens. The claims are set to be in billions of pounds.
The Hubble telescope which at that particular moment was spying on a secret MI 5 mission in Scotland has been rendered useless; the blinding light from the incident has cracked all its lenses. Damages are estimated to be in billions of dollars.
There are further unconfirmed reports that the astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the ISS (International Space Station) are all returning to earth. Fears of history repeating it self are looming large. On March 23rd 2001 the MIR was rendered useless and de orbited due to a similar incident over Cuba.

Right so... I haven’t self combusted have I now?... hmm… and no such news is going to be flashed in any ‘daily’ tomorrow morning… and really I have to stop writing, am hungry and this mess they call my room needs to be cleaned (Damn Bush…) but frankly I am going to spare you all and leave you’ll till the next time I get nuked or self combust…
