Wahahahaha!

I just got my bank statement. For many, *many* months now, every single 
month the amount paid out has been larger than the amount paid in. This 
makes me sad. :-(

However, last month, the amount paid out was *smaller* than the amount 
paid in. This makes me happy. :-)

And today, I just read last month's statement. The amount paid out was 
not merely "smaller", I believe it's probably a new record for me. Last 


This has caused my bank balance to increase by a very large percentage. 
Right before Christmas, this makes me *very* happy. :-D

pounds in rent. I bought food and petrol. And then there's Zazzle...]

Seriously, IMO your blog is a better place for your public diary than
p.off-topic.

Yep, and if he put the link to it in his sig then I would certainly visit it 
more often.  (I thought he did but it's not there now...)

*sigh*

Maybe there *is* something fundamentally wrong with me? It seems like 
every time I say anything in any forum I get flamed...

[Yes, I did have the link in my sig. But then I reinstalled Windoze...]

  It was not a flame. It was just a suggestion.

  Unless you are a *really* interesting person (no offence intended,
honestly), continuously writing about your personal life in a forum
is not very interesting to people. That's exactly what online diaries
and blogs are for.

I actually meant that what you posted sounds like an elite guide to 
*becoming* a troll (rather than that you *are* a troll). ;-)

Today I woke up, performed my usual morning routine, then had oatmeal 
for breakfast, I then entered my car and proceeded to drive to work ...
