Easter

In the style of The Fast Show's Jesse, this Easter I have mostly been working. I'm apparently not allowed to say what company for exactly, because I was recently told to sign something saying I wouldn't say anything remotely slanderous about said company. At some point while manning the shop floor at work I seem to have come into contact with a number of children suffering from chicken pox, and whose moronic parents thought it'd be a good idea to bring the infectious little cretins into a busy town centre to spread the joy. And here I am, further extending my Easter break in a very unpleasant way under doctor's orders.

And aside from concussing myself at work by being a bit thick, I also got word off my dad that he was finally able to pay back the money I spent the entire first semester lending him, and so I decided to splash out on a TV the size of many walls in my flat and a suitable stand that weighs more than myself. And gorging on chocolate.

Come to think of it, Easter itself was pretty good. Finishing Easter and becoming infected with a lesser form of the bubonic plague wasn't particularly fun.

What else happened over Easter... well, I saw someone wearing a chicken suit and was tempted to ask him if he had any expired coupons so I'd be able to escape work for 10 minutes while we had an epic fight, but it wasn't to be. Oh yeah, Sponge (my brother's kitten, not to be confused with his cat, Pudding) decided to try his luck with the kitchen window over Easter. While normally not an issue, least of all for cats, it's important to know my brother lives in a 1st floor flat. And the flat on the ground floor is raised a few feet too. Somehow he missed the huge area of soft land, and landed very flatly on a solid grid. Needless to say, he made a hell of a noise. Don't worry though, he was fine last time I saw him.

And that pretty much concludes my Easter, and indeed this Blog, I guess. If you want to keep up to date with my own ramblings, games reviews and other geeky shenanigans, you can find me posting regularly in my personal blog. But I recommend you watch one or two Zero Punctuation videos before you take everything I write for face value.
