Takes me 48 hours for DOMS to set in. They're weird though, unlike pulled muscles, I can still use them, they're just stiff as all fuck.

Yeah it was Saturday I was last in the gym, I should have gone today but this put me out of action a bit. Had a bath and everything, no joy, just pain. I'm going to do more so my body just better get used to it.

We're all on the upper side of 25 but I am seriously pissed off with the student mindset of my housemates when it comes to cleaning. Why am I the only one who cares if this place looks like a shit tip? :-|
I never make a comment about it, I just get on and basically do all the housework, and everyone's washing up, near enough every day. I know that's probably just making it worse, but fml I can't live in a dirty house. I wonder if i'm going crazy.....

Great fucking music player app that doesn't allow you to turn shuffle off. Not.

I was in a tetchy mood when I wrote that :lol: It's just called 'Music' or 'Music Player'. Weird thing is whilst it shows up on my app manager, it doesn't show up on my list of downloaded apps on Google Play. Odd. Anyway, I uninstalled it, tried some other one which was much worse, I mean unbelievably bad - ages to load, click on an artist in your library and it just lists all the songs by that artist in alphabetical order rather than being able to select an album, makes you rate the app before you can exit. Also the best bit, refers to songs as 'musics' e.g. 8 musics.

Downloaded the other one again. Seems to play in order now.

Love how zero forecast sites have predicted this sudden downpour.

Rewind to yesterday, me and mate sat in the German beer fest and some guy comes up and is throwing the horns right in our faces. Here we go, I thought, some 'lad' ripping on the goofy clads. He asked us if we liked Slayer, mate said yes but I was like "nah, not really". Cue standard incredulity (e.g. " 'ere, this guy doesn't like Slayer!") Sigh.

I'd have gone to the toilet for a very long time if anyone asked me off the bat if I liked Slayer. A very long time. Be like "do you like Slayer?" "Hold on mate, ill be back with you in a while."



A WHILE.

A friend knocked my phone out of my hand a few weeks ago, cracking the screen. Fair enough, she shoved a couple of £20 sheets in my pocket, but the screen still functioned, no big deal. I dropped it again not long after, which knocked out a good 6th of the screen, fucked the picture up and as well as the phone becoming unresponsive has had a side effect of only a couple of apps sending the phone haywire... Now, can I find the torx screwdriver I bought last time to actually replace the screen? Can I fuck. I refuse to pay for a duplicate of a tool sods law will dictate that I would find a day after ordering it.
If it sounds good, listen to it
