Quick note for evangelicals: war in the Middle East doesn't trigger the second coming.

Star Trek Prodigy scene. An animated Katherine Janeway, in uniform, sits on her ready room desk. But like, fully sitting *on* the desk like a mermaid would but no seashells. Next to the desk stands a Tellarite who has pig-like features and a sick beard, and a humanoid appearing officer, both Starfleet. 
Closed caption reads, "My--my brains are fine. I'm just busy thinking real hard, that's all."

Have a sneaky feeling that the joiner is not going to turn up to seal off the entry points in the two boiler cupboards.

I found a lot of my uni textbooks and even though they’re all very old editions of Gross, Haralambos, various law, ethics and politics I’ll look at donating them somewhere next week. I got my degrees in 2012 (BA hons) and 2014 (MRes) so it was a bit of nostalgia seeing them in the book piles.

I’m planning to watch it over the weekend. I’ve avoided all spoilers for the show so far.

Start getting the DVDs and books out shortly. Three ladder bookcases assembled and joined together. Took a wee bit longer with some of the holes not been all of the way through and the desk won’t take long with it also been ladder style.

I’ll need to find different screws for the hinges of the bathroom cabinets, the ones supplied have kept coming out. Good thing they’re not up on the walls yet…

All three ladder bookcases are assembled and waiting for me to empty four house moving boxes worth of dvds and books on to them. First, I need a tea then get cracking with organising them.

The older I get the more I empathise with Squidward. If I had a coworker who was even half as annoying as Spongebob I would have quit.

Printed off the sponsor forms for the half marathon. Really need to step up the fundraising side of that, training is easy asking for pennies is not easy.

It took some serious fu but I’ve managed to get the printer and Mac to speak to each other. Had to factory reset the printer then it recognised it when I looked at the list.

I’ve done all of the work arounds available for it and they don’t want to connect and I have paperwork that I need to print.

The longer Dunelm takes with dispatching my ready built wardrobe and chest of drawers, the closer I am to cancelling and trying to get them locally for similar prices.

Try to get this bed dismantled and ready for the guys from Bensons to take it away and get the new bed set up for me.

I'd forgotten just how good The Pingu Show is. This child (me!) is delighted with the nostalgia.

Found this in my notes app.

I have no memory of writing it… likely half-asleep.

Was I onto something?

If only they’d follow their own, the FCA and the FSCS guidelines and provide the banking details to pay by standing order, which is a more convenient payment method and legally they have to.

Ugh! Looks like Sky have double charged my monthly bill yet again. First it was the direct debits going missing once they reached Sky for a few months, now it is double charging each month for paying by card and falsely adding on late fees for paying by card.
