My name is Jason, and I'm a Blogaholic.

Most interesting thing today:

I'm in the usual net cafe, and my mouse is Squeaking.

Really.

I watched a movie called the Newsboys, with Christian Bale looking pretty young. Not Empire of the Sun young, but younger than he does now.

I just checked IMDB, and it says that it was made in 1992.

The Parotid Gland thing is even better today. Though I still have another couple of days worth of antibiotics to go. I tried the lemon-sucking thing, and I'm really not sure whether I was doing it right, or whether the lemon was right or what. Mostly I just succeeded in pulling faces involuntarily.

The other night I asked the girl I was talking to whether my clothes mark me as hideously unfashionable and/or a tourist.

She told me that the former was true. But it was my ACCENT that marked me as a tourist.

Hmm. At least people have been picking me as an Australian rather than a South Afrikan.

Other note:

My landlady SMS'd me to tell me that connecting the phone in the flat would cost £70 and require each of us to get a PIN number, so as not to run up a huge bill and then just run.

I'm sure that there are old BT phone plugs in the walls, and I'm also sure that the BT site said that if there used to be a connection at your address, you can have the connection reconnected for free, probably dependant on what type of deal you take.

If I can work out a way that the land line can be connected for less than £70 (I nearly typed 70 quid), that would be great.

I'm trying to figure out how to pursue the subject with my Landlady and not be a nag. Or I'll just have to Pony up the Cash.

A Nag or a Pony. Can Horses use Phones?

I just want a land-line so that I can do phone interviews. I'll figure it out.

Off the Warren Ellis site I'm finding some pretty funny blogs and stuff. Strangely some of it makes me want to experiment with web layouts and stuff.

Mutate mutate mutate.

Mutate or stagnate.

Speaking of Mutants, I'm thinking of seeing the Fantastic Four movie sometime. Like tonight.

Julian MacMahon has moved up in the world.

Fifteen minutes then they kick me out of here. Just in time for me to be able to eat again (I took a tablet at six).

Blog Blog Blog.

Over and Out.
