I have just had one of those "want to throw the computer out the window" experiences. Of course, my fault but I just could not for the life of me get an Excel accounts file to balance out. Just spent the best part of 3 hours messing around with it and trying to find what I did wrong and it was so annoying. I hate accounts. I want the rest of the day off.

Yes I'm watching The Wire at the moment. (Well not right now, you know what I mean). It is an excellent series.

Countless! I keep on making them

A good two words stemik. Very innovative and a legend amongst shoemakers.

Shoes are pretty important to me - I make them and my dad did before me. I was wondering what kind of shoewear people on here favor? Do you wear casual sports trainers a lot, or more formal shoes? I actually hardly ever wear trainers. Don't like them. Quite fussy as you might imaging.

The paralympics people don't go as fast or as high or as (other adjective) as the 'normal bodied' Olympics. Sad as it is, that probably explains the lack of coverage.

Sapporo. Great.

I hear many times of Sapporo being great. What exactly makes it so? -
Fukuda just resigned

I have Softbank and never had problems. Don't use it all the time though like some people!

Tea is an important part of my day. I always bring back huge bags with me when I go back to my home country. While I like green tea, nothing beats a cup of strong tea.

I am having a very very slow week. Not because of lack of work - far from it - I just cannot seem to get movitated at all and I seem to be wasting time so much. I could have had 3 days skiing this week and done as much work. Instead I have basically wasted it. I dislike this fact, but finding it hard to snap out of it. Anyone else have periods like this? How do you snap out?

Early December. Most resorts opening mid-late December. (Sorry!) -
Washing hands after using the toilet
Pete the Shoemaker replied to miller's topic in General off-topic discussions
I wash my hands all the time. Perhaps as a habit from my work. Quite fussy about this kind of thing. -
So it might be a bit late to ask, but what you are up to this 3 day weekend? I'm working today, then going to Gifu tomorrow and Monday to meet some friends. Like it over there. Have a good one.
