#pineapple lump

It's now 7.30pm. I'm not sure I can hold out much longer. Several times today I reached into my drawer to find some chocolately comfort, only to realize anew that I didn't have any. The trick is if you don't buy it you can't eat it. I'm going through withdrawals. It's been a long day. Just one pineapple lump won't hurt... Thoughts for today: NZ news - our population is set to grow to 5 million in under 20 years, with nearly half supposedly living in Auckland. Doesn't seem fair. Surely Levin could take some of the load...? Russian news - Vladimir Putin has just celebrated his 60th birthday. Take a close look at recent photos. That man has either had a serious nip & tuck or he sold his soul to the devil, cause no-one looks that youthful at 60... Australian news - an Aussie 14 year old girl has been charged with attempted murder by poisoning brownies. 14 years old!? They breed their psychopaths young over there... Tech news - barcodes turn 60 today. Hmmm. Same day as Vlad. Conspiracy? Highlights: Backing out of the worlds narrowest carpark without taking off my side mirrors. Success (even if it took 3 goes). Lowlights: Schmucks. They're everywhere. Lurking. In the shadows. Maybe I should invent schmuck repellant. I'd make a fortune... (I have also eaten 6 pineapple lumps since I started writing this. Why oh why is one NEVER enough)
