Your day in "status updates"

[Louweasel]

Whilst staring out of a bus window, I thought, what would my facebook status updates say over the course of a day if I could magically update them remotely? So I made notes, and here is my day...

0700: Louise is at the bus stop, yawning.
0900: Louise is amazed at the gormlessness of legal reception staff who are acting like they've never seen a bundle of court documents before.
10:45 Louise is appalled that a round trip from her flat to south west London to her offfice in the City has taken nearly 5 hours on public transport.
10:47 Louise is reflecting on the naivete that led her to expect to find a pen in the office stationery cupboard
10:48 Louise is very pleased to have found a pen
10:49 Louise has a blue hand due to substandard writing implements
10:50 Louise is listening to a member of senior management referring to another member of senior management as "a knob", and to another of her colleagues on the phone about his damp proof course.
10:55 Louise is photocopying and filing. Oh the glamour.
11:00 Louise is considering suing the department re the tingling in her shoulder after a day and a half lugging lots of paperwork round London in a backpack on buses.
11:05 Louise is stomping down to the canteen to buy milk for coffee
11:07 Louise is shouting at her computer
11:08 Louise is having to bribe her colleague with tea so he will send the requisite email to IT support to reset her password
11:30 Louise is still awaiting her new password
11:35 Louise is shredding things gleefully
11:37 Louise finally has her new password
11:42 Louise is regretting answering a colleague's phone after a long pointless conversation with an incomprehensible man
11:45 Louise is deleting several irrelevant global emails
11:50 Louise is doing a spreadsheet
12:00 Louise is indulging in a little light furniture removal as her newly acquired pedestal of drawers was in the way of her knees and giving her backache.
12:01 Louise is wondering what the green inflatable thing is that a colleague has left under her desk in a bag.
12:30 Louise is stealing her colleague's Daily Mirror to read while she has lunch. Mmm felafel.
12:37 Louise is reflecting that "Jordan's man tried to talk me into orgy" is not perhaps the pinnacle of british journalism.
13:05 Louise is back to the spreadsheet.
13:20 Louise is exiting the office at speed.
14:50 Louise is in Kent. Or possibly East Sussex, she isn't quite sure.
16:00 Louise is wondering how long this is going to last.
18:00 Louise is negotiating a lift home from Orpington with a colleague.
19:00 Louise is pouring a gin and tonic and regarding the ever-increasing ironing pile with a malevolent glare.

What would it say if you wrote down your status throughout the day?

10:49 Louise has a blue hand due to substandard writing implements.

Are they Swedish pens, perchance? Is this part of a cunning plan by Zilverzmurfen to Zmurfize Louise?

If you begin to feel an irresistible urge to fence epee seek help immediately.

[Zilverzmurfen]

Geez...at what time does Louise have lunch?!

[JackOfHearts]

Geez...at what time does Louise have lunch?!

12:30 Louise is stealing her colleague's Daily Mirror to read while she has lunch. Mmm felafel.

I think that answers that.

[Zilverzmurfen]

I think that answers that.

I missed that. Her day just seemed packed with work related things to do...

<chop>

You know you can update your facebook via your web enable mobile phone

[Louweasel]

You know you can update your facebook via your web enable mobile phone

Surely you can see from my day that I'm actually far too busy for that?!?!

[Lord Gorlock]

0500: Gorlock wakes up, because the dogs want out. Gorlock isn't supposed to wake up for another 2 and a half hours. Gorlock is not amused.

0600: Gorlock is unable to go back to sleep. He seeks decent television programming to ease his mind into the day, while all he finds is either the worst cartoons in the history of the universe, or news. He makes his choice.

0630: Gorlock chuckles at spongebob.

0830: Gorlock leaves for the bus

0945: Gorlock is harassed by a random homeless man about stealing his car.

1000: Gorlock hears someone else being harassed. He giggles quietly to himself.

1100: Lab starts. Gorlock's idiotic lab partners are too afraid of the dead rat specimen to move it. Gorlock is forced to do everything. Gorlock hates everyone.

1120: Gorlock pretends to throw the rat at the most stupid/annoying person at the table. They squeel, and then the rat slips out of Gorlock's hands. Gorlock is amused.

11:40: Gorlock has had to listen to the rat girl talk about how she eats too much asparagus, and has respiratory problems as she coughs in his face. Gorlock loathes this girl.

1200: Gorlock quickly shoves a bologna sandwhich down his throat as he runs to thermodynamics lab, which is across the campus.

1550: Gorlock finishes thermodynamics lab. Life is pain, and he accidentally looked into a laser when a lab partner shined it into his eye. He fears blindness.

1600: Gorlock takes his Thermodynamics lecture exam. He feels he's done well, and laughs at the people who didn't prepare properly. He does this in his mind, because in reality he is sympathizing that "Yes, the test WAS too hard".

1800: Gorlock smells feces. A bum has used the restroom on the bus. Gorlock is not making this up.

2000: Gorlock finally arrives home.

2001: Gorlock gets on Fnet


My story isn't as amusing, but this game seemed fun.

[fences_like_a_lemur]

Nobody cares about you Gorlock...everyone comes to this thread to hear about the lovely and amazing lou!

Now get out!

[Lord Gorlock]

0800: Gorlock secretly plans to murder lemur...

[Inquartata]

Hopefully by roasting, and serving with a nice side dish...

[Go? Fencing?]

You might want to ask FG for some advice on that- she might have some lemur recipes along with her squirrel and penguin recipes.
