To fight the horde, and sing and cry

Now, this is the bit of having a new tattoo I didn’t miss.  The itching that I’m not allowed to scratch.  Thankfully, putting more Bepanthen on it calms it down.

I was supposed to get paid yesterday.  Well, with my bank, it’s actually on a Saturday, but officially it was yesterday.  Which resulted in my doing my favourite thing in the world, phoning the DWP and moaning at them.  What happened is that when my new sick note was scanned over on Thursday, it sat there being completely ignored, resulting in them thinking they didn’t have it.  I would say it’s just them being incompetent, but I genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if it was deliberate.

Thankfully they did get my money through the same day.  So, to cheer myself up, I bought Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman.  I love myths and legends, I love Neil Gaimans writing so it was a no brainer.  I’m enjoying it thus far.  It’s well written and it’s also funny.

Stephen Fry has written a similar book of Greek myths and legends.  I’ll be getting that as soon as I can afford it as well.

A TV channel over here is showing ER.  They started from the beginning.  Holy hell, who on the production staff had a fetish for people waking up?  Seriously, it seems like every other episode starts with someone waking up.

I’m also getting into the show Scorpions.

If you watched the film King of Kongs, you might find this interesting.
