I'm expecting a package from a place which is sent by Royal Mail. I think I know why they've started using a trackable option for even the free delivery option. I got a message from Royal Mail on Wednesday saying that they had it and it should get delivered yesterday. It did not get delivered yesterday. Today I found out that the reason it wasn't delivered is because it got sent to the wrong depot. Looking at maps, it went from 100 miles North of me, to 100 miles South of me.

Second Gecko news item: It turns out that keyboards don't like having drinks spilt on them. It initially appeared fine, but then I noticed that a fair few buttons were now adding another character (typing 't' resulted in '+t'). After spending a while dismantling it and fiddling about, I gave it up as a lost cause. This morning, I gave it one more go before going to buy a new one, and it's working again! Added bonus, while I had it in bits, I took the chance to clean it all up so it looks almost new. The keys did all go back in the right place, but I did somehow, even with this, end up with a few spare screws and stuff at the end.
Update: It's mostly working, still a little off

Yesterday, I was having sinus issues. I think I had a fever, too. We spent the day watching Home Alone 1 and 2, and Christmas Vacation.
Today, I still have a headache, but feel much better.

Today, in the space of eight hours, I had four actual customers at work. I saw how much money my employer made today from those four and after taking into account the outgoings I've worked out it would probably have been cheaper for them to pay me to stay in bed all day, which would've been vastly preferable to going to work. Absolute waste of time.

Last night, I stumbled onto a college Stanford lecture on YouTube where the top comment remarked how amazing it was this generation has access to free lectures and the ability to learn for free.
I didn’t last five minutes before switching to a 30 second clip of Vince McMahon announcing the nWo in the WWF.

I wa# looking out the back window a few minutes ago when I saw our neighborhood Cooper’s Hawk make a kill. One second there was a pigeon in the yard. The next second there was an explosion of feathers. Cooper is currently sitting on our back wall tearing into his dinner.

You know I was watching Quinton Reviews and I thought of someone who might be great for the voice of Garfield: Phelous. The timber of his sleepy voice makes me think he'd be a better replacement than Chris Pratt.

Today I Learned... that Jamiroquai is a band, and not just the singer's name.

It’s my birthday tomorrow, I get to spend it getting yet another Covid test from being exposed at work. Either way after the test I’m hanging out at home for the night.

Fedex strikes again, lol.
I was brushing my teeth when my mother came by and asked if I'd ordered something. i had not, so she goes to look and then comes back to say Fedex had left a huuuuuge box on the porch. We go to look and first Mom says, "It's a trundle bed!" then, "They sent it to the wrong address!" sure enough, they'd delivered it to the right house number... but wrong street. It should've been left on the next block over. This has happened before, but usually with a letter or something I could run over easily. I tried finding a phone number for that house, but nothing current came up so I wasn't sure what to do. Mom suggested I call Fedex.
I was reading off the tracking number to the Fedex employee when I realized there was a phone number on the address label. Get off the phone with Fedex and call it, and sure enough, got the guy waiting for his trundle bed lol. I told him what happened, and he was just like "Oh geez" when I told him my address. Haha. So he came by with a truck and picked the box up and took it home. Geez, what a morning.

11 years ago today I posted “You’re only Smoke & Mirrors to me” on FB. No idea why or if Cody did something to influence it.

I'm going to try and do a name change on here to Gunther Pandemonium X since that's what I'm known as everywhere else online and I've been done with Groose for the last couple of years to be honest. Call this a transition period. If it doesn't work then I can always just go back to Groose. Going for a new style.

Since This Is Us ended tonight, Dan Fogelman posted a nice "thank you" to fans on Twitter earlier in the afternoon. I emailed my mother the link since she's been a big fan of the show since it first started, and the next time she saw me, she mentioned it, then asked, "Is that the musician?" and I had to explain that no, it's the creator of This Is Us.
So yeah, she confused Fogelman with fogelberg. Then I learned that Fogelberg was actually born in my area. Go figure, heh.

Not sure how to word this, but on my Google Documents, I have about 3 different lists of nearly every move in Professional Wrestling. The pages are about 30-60 in length and I use it for the CAWS in this E-Fed I have...that I never released.
