The weekend was spent moving rooms around. Our bedroom was at the front on the 2nd floor, so we moved into the bedroom at the back on the 1st floor. We then moved the childrens bedroom from the back on the 2nd floor into our previous bedroom and moved all their toys, etc from the lounge into their new bedroom. Got that?
It involved emptying each room in turn, cleaning the walls and skirting boards and finally cleaning the carpet using a Rug Doctor, before replacing all the furniture into the room. For those of you who have never cleaned their carpets before - its a horrible, horrible thing! The colour of the water thrown away was black and smelly. And we had been laying, sitting, playing, etc on them! Eurgh!
In other news (leterally), I read an amusing letter from someone called Jamie from London in this mornings Metro:
Whatever the outcome of this US election thing, I think the obvious answer has been staring us in the face for at least four years. The US is long overdue another civil war. All the Democrats should stay on the east of the Mississippi, all the Republicans on the west. Then they can test their expensive military hardware without dragging the rest of the world down with them.
An interesting idea (and reasonably comical for those Yank haters out there) and quite workable. But it doesn't take into account the fact that war, especially civil war, is a horrid thing. Sudan, Rwanda, Malawi, etc...
There. I have made political comment. And with regard to the US elections - [b[someone[/b] will win and quite frankly I don't really care who. My political view is extremely simple (much like my religious apathy): No matter who gets in - they lie, cheat and swindle and everyone ends up worse off overall...
Last night I had a really weird dream. I was in work, but wasn't sat at my normal desk. In fact, no-one was sat at their normal desk. But everyone responded to the name of the person whose desk it was, not who they actually were (you follow me). And everyone was asleep apart from me. Whenever I talked to anyone (using their wrong name), they would wake up, answer me and then immediately go to sleep again. I woke up after realising in my dream that it was silly and therefore a dream...
If anyone has any insight into what this means, it would be appreciated :)
