Sunday 16th of September, 2007
(It's almost all rubbish.)
I wake up at 5:00, after some quite involved dreams, and feel completely awake. I have the impression that I woke up because the dreams weren't going anywhere and I have to reboot. Also it seems like my body has just come down with a cold, and it wants to wake me up to share the joy.
Anyway, I do fall asleep again, and wake up at 9:00 after some even more involved dreams. This time, however, I don't feel awake or rested at all. In fact I walk into a few walls on the way to the bathroom.
9:45 - To the supermarket. I pull out a trolley, but it's entwined with another. I can't separate them, so I put them back. As I leave (with a more compliant trolley), the pair roll into the road. I go back and retrieve them, and put them back, but they're intent on escape. Eventually I leave them to roll into the road, as I don't seem to be able to stop them.
Get the shopping and go back to the flat.
I do some JGB.
13:00 - lunch, which is pasta salad by H. During lunch, Pa drops off a spare FreeView box he's got. After lunch I test it with the antenna I bought yesterday. After a bit of prodding it works. We are then free to make the discovery about modern television that almost everybody else has made before us.
(It's almost all rubbish.)
Then more JGB, interposed with bread making.
At 18:30 I begin dinner (beef stew), and at 19:20 we eat it with the fresh bread.
After that watch the programme about British comics on BBC 4, followed by Jonathan Ross in search of Steve Ditko, and the end of Return of the King, which seems to be most of the film. I suppose it had a lot of forward momentum.
Then some episodes of Heroes. Thanks to the new box, I can finally read what the Japanese characters are saying. But then, I could guess most of it.
