That's an impressive misspelling of "blinkenlights".

Intel has just released its Ark B graphics cards.  Presumably for use by telephone sanitisers, account executives, hairdressers, and insurance salesmen.

I prefer this one https://www.reddit.com/r/WLED/comments/1gs7xnk/how_do_i_add_a_second_set_of_lights_to_this/ - which will be this or next weekends project to replicate with the strands of led pixels that have been in the shed for years now.

That the permanent Black and Cyberweek e-mail offers from all the companies have finally stopped. This year it was twice as intense.

Stopped taking Tramadol last night (last dose at about 8pm). 

Woke up this morning feeling like I had significantly more braincells. 
I can also have a shower today. That'll be a nice gift for the whole family. 

 

 

I was prescribed Tramadol once. It was incredibly effective at killing the pain in my frozen shoulder but my god the brain fog. And even gentle physical activity made me nauseous. On day 5 I went for a stroll around the block and half way in I was violently ill, projectile vomiting in someone's front yard. I hope I never need to take it again.

We don't have Boxing Day, but we do have a second Christmas day (shops closed).😉

This lovely video made me smile. Coldplay feat. Dick Van Dyke.

It makes me smile that we are only mere days from being able to buy seasonal Hot Cross Buns again...they usually come into the supermarkets around the first week of January, so that we don't miss the Easter rush.

We could all wish to be DVD. 
What an amazing human, to not only be so vital at 99 years old, but to be so unafraid of death, so positive and so incredibly happy. 

No gonna lie...I had a little bit of a tear in my eye watching that.

I saw some last month at the supermarket. Seems they do them whenever they feel like.

Left over from this year's Easter? There should be a strict law around this - like fireworks at Guy Fawkes. 😀 And while they're at it, rules on when Christmas music can be played in shops.





Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

I am vehemently opposed to the marketing associated with these seasonal festivities that fill our supermarket shelves 4 months out from the actual event. 

 

But..... I make an exception for Hot Cross Buns. A law needs to be passed that requires those sweet, sticky delicacies to be on our shelves year round.
