Today has been very low-key. Cooked myself two meals (cooked breakfast and vege curry, go the vege market), enjoyed the sun and spent some time sorting out and tidying files.

Before last night, I had 30+ tabs open and had done for at least a week and a half. They changed, but there was always so many there. My laptop wasn't appreciating it (Firefox, I love you but you're a resource hog) and it might sound a bit odd, but I don't think my brain was either. It was always like I had something else to read/watch/comment on and I had a lot of other unsorted stuff like video/music/pics. So, I tidied and sorted, and I feel a little better. Not to say this won't end up happening again, of course, but I'm going to try and keep it a little more under control. It's a bit worrying how much of an effect my laptop habits have. ;)

Also, I bought a new phone yesterday. I have returned to the Vodafone fold but I got to keep my old Telecom number, and the phone is really kinda pretty. It has waaay better games than my old phone and even a version of Opera installed. I don't usually really have great geeky gadget love for cellphones, but this one might change that.

Anyway, random links of happiness.

Rahm Emmanuel and Stephen Colbert roast each other at a Spina Bifida charity event. OMG awesome. The video is a little shaky, but it is well worth a watch. They both get in some awesome calls, and Stepehen also has some brilliant lines about Dana Perino.

Also, there was this photo:



:D

Richard Hammond test drives an F1 car. Oh, Hamster. How gleeful this made him was awesome to watch and it's also amazing to see the forces that those cars apply on your body. Amazing machines.

And randomly, I seem to be developing a small Bones addiction.

I have said it before and will no doubt say it again, but David Boreanaz your powers of adorable should not be this high! Seriously! I also kinda adore Hodgins, Brennan and Cam. <3

*goes to watch another ep*

The Bad:

I was feeling bleh all day, and not in the 'wow, I should have slept more sense' but in the 'I think I'm getting sick' sense.

My iPod totally froze on me today. I had to wait till the battery died and I'm recharging it now and it seems to be okay but ... meeep. *holds it close*

The news about Richard Hammond which totally knocked me for six this morning. I hope he pulls through (and reading the updated story now, I see he is improving, which is awesome) and I really feel for his family. Gah.

I missed Dr. Who tonight.

I really have no courage to speak of.

The Good:

I had a really nice dinner out at a Mexican restaurant with my aunt, uncle and three cousins I don't see that often. It was pretty awesome and I had half a bottle of wine, which was kinda nice. I don't usually like wine but this was really easy to drink. Mmm. I've drunk so much more since I moved here.

The Harry Reid and Richard Durbin comedy show in the US Senate. Awesome.
