Yesterday was Thursday/Today it is Friday/Tomorrow is Saturday/And Sunday comes afterwards

I’m writing this so as not to feel as if the entire day has been a, for want of a better, less punny term, write-off. I haven’t written anything today or done any actual work. Here is a list of what I have done instead:

I have overslept.

I have listened to Adam Carolla interviewing Bobcat Goldthwait (of the Police Academy films).

I have sent some emails.

I have been distracted from my emails by the Huffington post website.

I have read The Huffington Post’s 'favourite Rebecca Black tweets'.

I have googled Rebecca Black and found out that she is a singer.

I have watched the video for Rebecca Black’s song Friday. Twice.

I have laughed a lot. On my own. Watching a 13 year old sing a song.

I have uploaded the video for Rebecca Black’s Friday to my facebook page and checked back every 10 minutes or so to see if anyone has “liked” it.

I have watched a parody video of Rebecca Black’s Friday. Someone has recorded it in the style of Bob Dylan. It lasts nearly 6 minutes and the joke is simply that it’s a pretty faithful soundalike. I listened to the whole thing.

I have had a shower.

I have made myself a broccoli and pasta lunch.

I have washed up.

I have cleaned the George Foreman Grill.

I have sneezed whilst cleaning the George Foreman Grill.

I have cleaned the George Foreman grill again with anti-bacterial washing up liquid.

I have made a cup of tea.

I have forgotten that I’d made a cup of tea.

I have drunk a cold cup of tea.

I have been on Wikipedia site for the author of the Moomin books, Tove Jansson, and listened to the pronunciation of her name. Twice.

I have realised I’m mispronouncing Tove but nailing Jannson.

I have tweeted a joke that David Reed and I came up with last night. I say, “David Reed and I came up with”, he came up with it, I asked if I could steal it off him.

I have stooped so low as to steal things that other people have said to put on Twitter.

I have signed up to a discount vouchers mailing list on the promise of Nando’s vouchers.

I have received no Nando’s vouchers.

I have looked online and found that there is a guy selling completed Nando’s loyalty cards on ebay. 4 for a tenner.

I have decided against buying Nando’s loyalty cards on ebay.

I have decided that buying or selling Nando’s loyalty cards on ebay shows a distinct lack of loyalty.

I have tried to write an opening to the Pappy’s Tour show (tickets still available).

I have failed to write an opening to the Pappy’s tour show as I am too hungover.

I have had a hangover.

I have considered this a day wasted.

I have written this.

I have slightly revised my opinion. Looking at it written down it actually doesn’t seem like such a bad day.

Or, as Rebecca Black might put it...
