    Now to the more pressing matter. Every single night, I manage to kick off 2 of my 3 blankets theoughout the course of my sleeping. Does anyone know how to stop this? I've tried shouting at them but they just won't listen.

    Experiment title: Applying foreign agents to prevent loss of bedsheets during night.

    Date: 31/1/12

    Apparatus necessary: tent pegs, mallet, industrial stapler, paintbrush, bucket of locktite, bed, bedsheets, experimenter.

    Method:
    1. Apply tent pegs to corners of bedsheet, anchoring the bedsheet to bedposts.

    2. Spread large quantities of locktite to the underside of bedsheets, allowing it to react with mattress. Take care to only apply glue to 3 edges, to allow experimenter entry to the system.

    3. Apply industrial stapler to three glued edges of bed. Take care to leave enough clearance for bed entry.

    4. Insert experimenter into system.

    5. Wait until brightening occurs in the hours between 6 and 8am.

    6. Extract experimenter, record results.

    7. Wait until experimenter is prepared for another session, repeat from step one.

    Hypothesis: Experimenter finds that bedsheets cannot be freed from bed, allowing for more efficient sleep.

    I'm still wondering what I do with the mallet? Hit myself with it to put myself to sleep?

    Other than that, top notch advice, I have just finished Step 2, applying the locktite. Will keep you posted.

    Had a protein shake today, I expect 6 pack abs and throbbing veins in the morning or else I'll be making a formal complaint.

    I prefer to get my protein by eating loads of steak and chicken. Feck it, I'm going to the butcher tomorrow for some skewers!

    You know things are bad when you're an atheist and you find yourself praying to literally every god that has ever been mentioned in every religion.

    The awkward moment when you're silently fuming over a strangers behaviour in public and then you get a good look at them and realize they're a friend so you have to mentally start making excuses for them before you can acknowledge to yourself that your friend is irritating.

    I've just recovered from sickness so haven't been out or had my blinds open since Sunday, and it now appears to be sunny outside. In Galway.

    My mother's a creep. She knows I don't like feet so she keeps sending me pictures of her toe to show me it's bruised...

    So I got the highest result in my class for our Macbeth test. 75%. LOL, my teacher thinks he's a college lecturer with his marking schemes.

    Also, finally made my desktop all sexy. If you want the Widgets just install plasma-desktop. Also went overboard with the status bar widgets, but I got rid of the unneeded ones so its nice looking in the snap.

    Computer? It's a Lenovo G560 laptop :p

    Eh, Ubuntu 11.10.
    Desktop Environment is just Unity, and I'm running KDE's Plasma Desktop yoke for the widgets. Didn't know you could do that, till I googled "Unity Widgets", pretty cool. Nice having the best bits of KDE and Unity :D

    I was fooled. Just walked home and it's actually icy outside. Frozen Jasper would have been more appropriate an image.

    Looks absolutly lovely. Is Ubuntu/Linuix easy to run? I was thinking of setting it up or even trying it out.

    If you've ever set up (and installed windows), its easier then that. Google is your friend. Just set it up on another partition and mess around with it.
    Ubuntu is designed for idiots.

    Coach Carter is such a great sports film, funny how a movie can be so inspirational.

    Just closed my Bebo account.
    Reason for cancellation: Times have changed, we grow up, we move on. We must put the past behind us. Its been a fun few years.

    Feel so sad. My name was Jack Ryan and that was my second bebo account from 2008-2012 :(

    I have 1 hour to make a decision. . .
