The following Dodgers have been smited by the JDK for their crimes against Jam:
All the girls! for picking on the JDK and damaging his already delicate self esteem!
The Basserd Who Nicked Copper's Stuff For the offense of nicking Copper's stuff. You are a tw*t, whoever you are and we all hope you get run over by a tram in Nottingham. Or Liverpool. Or whereever else they have trams!
Copper For the crime of playing with her Wii instead of her Jammie pals!
Thats right! Its time for you to tell us all about a day in your life.... So have a fun and interesting day today and when you get home later write of your advertures! I've been rather busy latetly and i've not had time to talk much so this will be a intresting window into your lives (er.. hopefully).
Got up, drove to the bus stop, got the bus, fell asleep, missed my stop, got to work eventually, managed to do nothing till 12, went to pub, back at 2, now sititng here postinf to the JDBB.
Later on it'll be:
RUn wife to work, fight with kids till they're in bed, open beer, watch telly, go to bed.
And thats about it till tomorrow when the real fun starts, Judo in the morning, pub for footy in the afternoon, pub at night, and who knows, a police cell over-night depending on how things go!
I got up. I wrote some of my thesis. I wrote some more of my thesis. I checked the JDBB. I wrote some of my thesis. I stared at the screen. I checked the JDBB. I wrote some more of my thesis. I cracked open a bottle of wine. I checked the JDBB. I wrote this post.
Since bringing the baby home my day more or less is a clockwork of feeding, changing, napping, feeding, changing, napping, taking 1000 photos, feeding, changing, napping. During the napping part, if I'm not trying to get some nap time in myself, I'm stalking the JDBB.
If by chance its a nice day, and I'm feeling particularly mobile, we go for a walk. The other day we went to the zoo. Very exciting. So exciting, he slept through the whole thing.
However, most of the time we just sit at home feeding, changing, napping.
le sigh. I can't wait until this kid becomes interesting.

Then I went to the pub, hurrah! Now I'm back from the pub and off to sleep.
I think that happens just after University. When he starts earning his own money.
Now then... my day...
I was at work at 7am. Ran some bits of code which produces reports about dodgy bank accounts and fraudulent applications so our investigators can check em out, had a bacon bun, wrote some bits of code to produce more reports about dodgy bank accounts and fraudulent applications, had a meeting with my boss about my new slave... er... member of staff wot starts next month, went to lunch, bought my £1 thing, mucked about with MI, made wagers with the temps on many exciting things like the outside temperature, the next person to kick the printer and so on and fielded calls from policemen. And all the while, posting right here on the JDBB.
Then I went to Stead's house, did some weight training, went to see Crash at the flicks (which was very good) and now I'm about to go to bed.
For those that don't want to read the whole thing, I submit the short version:
Got up, killed trees, surfed internet, ate lunch, visited baby, played games, packed stuff, bought superfluous outfit.
For those with too much time on their hands, I submit the mystoriesalwaysturnouttobemuchlongerthanstrictlynecessary version:
Got up, watched a little Sportscenter, which made me a little late for work. Went to work. Typed up a lovely bit of paper that tells someone what he is and isn't allowed to claim as travel expenses. Took a bunch on papers that we got in the mail and distributed them to the proper mail slots. Someone came down looking for someone's evaluation report, so I copied a piece of paper for him that ended up being the wrong one, anyway. Sent an e-mail to HQ asking for a data dump of who's had a certain kind of training, which I will later turn into a wonderfully formatted, easy to understand bit of paper. Sent off some papers that got sent here by mistake. Received faxed pieces of paper from Montana. Told Montana that they had filled it out all wrong and to do it again, only not until after September 1st. In there somewhere, I had lunch, posted on the JDBB, UA, looked up various things for my fantasy football team, and generally wasted the tax-payer dime on the internet. I am about to change out of my lovely blue suit (not literally a suit) and go home, wence I will visit my friend in the hospital who just had a baby, pack for tomorrow (flying down to Los Angeles-- horaay for in-laws!), and most likely play some video games. Also, the wife said she wants to buy a new outfit, even though she called complaining earlier today that she had just finished all the laundry and didn't know where to put it all.
Day started normaly, not for long though! Went to make my bowl of cornflakes..and found we only had goats milk left. Yuk!
Anyhoo went off to work and I was suprised that I didnt get called 'nips' when I got in.. things are looking up! Went to the dry store to tidy it up and as useal i'm presented with a massive mess.. *sigh* After working with cheif's for the last two years I have found the following to be true...
1. Cheifs can never ever be wrong.. at all. ever. If for example they put the wrong fruit in a bake its my fult.. somehow 2. Cheifs are sex pests. If they are not talking about sex they are flurting with varous staff and making dirty jokes! 3. Cheifs apear to belive they can sing, and do so as much as posable. This makes listening to the radio very dangerous. 4. Every Cheif belives they are the best cheif in the world. Anything they make is always 'perfect' anyone who dosnt like it is 'stupid'.
Er.. at my work anyway.... where was I? oh yes.... The dry store was in a complete tip as normal, aparntly the head cheif has difficulty putting apples away in the apple tray. instead he feels the need to fill it with lemons? But dont fret.. It was clearly my fult as I was informed. Alittle after this I made another fatal mistake, I used my brain, this is very stupid thing to do infront of the head cheif. Independent thinking is very much frowned apon. He wanted me to clean a praticly mucky shelving unit. I politly informed him that dishs were building up and the waitressess would soon have trouble finding places to put the dirty dishes so I would do it alittle later when I had time. Clearly this idea of 'forward thinking' was far to advanced for him so of I went to clean some shelves.. can you guess what happened? Anyway... I was blamed again because as you well know, The univeruse will end before a cheif can be wrong.
After work I went to pick up a good friend of mine called Sho and we have the great fun task of wall papering. I'm not very good at wall papering and its probally the most annoying thing I've done.. but we got though some how. I managed to only let wall paper fall on my head twice! A new record for me. We were nearly done one wall when Em comes home and desides to make us some food, Yum Yum! So me and Sho tidyed the mess and lit the fire in our soon-to-be- new bedroom. I'd like stop telling about my day for a moment to say how amasingly COOL having a fire in your bedroom is! Its the best thing ever. Er.. anyway Sho went home after eating alittle and Em played on the X-Box while i curled up infront of the fire after a long day! Em is really into a game just now called 'Jade Empire' but I dont like it because its making Em evil. in it you can play a nice peace bring monk who loves everyone or a evil psyico monk who burns everything... Em plays the evil one and keeps laughing manicly while she hurts people.... Its alittle worring to watch. After much complaining by me of horns growing out of Em's evil satanic head we went back to our old house to sleep. I was to tired to type this up last night so I did it this morning!
I just noticed that this is way longer then other peoples :S I hope you enjoy anyway!
Started late, got home Thrusday Night/Friday Morning @ 12:00 am, made a couple of phone calls and watched Octopussy until ~2:00 am. Woke up at 7:00 am, it was pouring! Called a cab to go to work, it took an hour!! Worked away on my DB, revenue per person/profitability/person and answered a few technical questions at UA, MrE and XVBT, until 7:00 pm.
Went to the pub, hung w/ friends and watched some pre-season [American] football, my Mn Vikings won.
Around 10:00 went to a night-club, Tonic. Hanging by the bar and a bartender I didn't recognize approaches me and says "Weren't you at Brad's last Monday?" The answer is: Yes. She says "You are a party animal!" I'm thinking 'oh boy, what did I do?...' Anyway, it was fine...
Stopped by one last pub around midnight, Harvey's, good time. Manager bought me a shot, and I chilled with the bartender, who at one point jumped up on the bar and danced like a maniac, she gets some kudos for that!
I can't wait until this kid becomes interesting.
