Peanut butter on Nice biscuits? Interesting idea. I find peanut butter and chocolate bourbons works nicely.

Also, you'd expect the shops to be manic the weekend before Christmas, wouldn't you? Popped into town today and it was pretty dead. Work wasn't busy either.

Hope the streets of Leicester aren't too crowded tomorrow then when I head in.

Went to a party last night and got talking to the host about conspiracy theories (I'm doing my uni dissertation on them). Anyway he ended up lending us a copy of The Biggest Secret by David Icke. Apparently he was going for a jog around the local park and when he stopped for a rest on a bench some guy approached him and started asking him weird questions and before you know it he gave him this book and started trying to convert him like some new age christian. Telling him he'd just been discharged from the army and had seen the light. Mental. Anyway I've got it now. It's got it all, lizards, diana being offed, 9/11. Supposed to be the bible of conspiracies. Even if it doesn't help with uni work it looks like good fun.

Yeah. Shame I didn't start looking into this a few years ago when my great grandad was still alive. He was in the Freemasons. I bet he knew something. Might have met the lizards.

The storm is trying to blow the roof off my shed. It only has about half of the felt roof at the minute.

To anyone and everyone who has ever stood outside of a shop, waiting for it to open at 8am on a freezing, foggy, boxing day morning: Go home and spend your day off with your family, you sad excuse for a human being.

We don't even celebrate Boxing Day here.

Are you implying that you had to (or have) gone through that in the past?

Anywho, feeling much better today than yesterday. Yesterday just felt...meh. Even bleh at one point. Didn't feel like Christmas to me at all really.

I work in a retail enviroment. The January Sales start on Boxing Day.

And no-one "celebrates" anything on Boxing Day. It's just...Turkey Hangover day.

And here I thought 'Turkey Hangover Day' was the day after Thanksgiving otherwise known as Black Friday...

And then I realized....oh confound different regional holidays.
