Things...

...that have made me strangely uneasy recently.

1. Wondering what to buy Sooz for her birthday. (It's tomorrow.)

2. People with the letter "v" in the middle of their name. (Kevin, Gavin, Mervyn, Trevor and so on.) But not "David", that's okay.

3. Approaching green traffic lights at fairly high speed.

4. The big wind-powered electricity generator thing at the side of the M25.

5. Driving under planes taking off from / landing at Heathrow.

6. Standing in a queue between two very tall people.

7. Choosing the shortest queue only to realise that the person at the front is an imbecile who's never bought stuff on his own before.

8. Carrying a roll of gift-wrap paper in one of those big plastic bags with the handle sort of at the side.

9. Going into McDonalds

10. Chipmunks. They sell them in the pet-shop across the road. It's hard to explain. They're sort of fast and squirmy.

More worrisome are the chipmunks you get at McDonalds. Try not to think about it.

How about a chipmunk in the snow globe? That would be cool... for a while. Then sobriety would happen and the fun would (probably) stop.

Hey look, I know you're only trying to help, but I've already bought the presents for fuck's sake. And stop talking about chipmunks. Eeeeew.

David,

A couple of suggestions...

Avoid the use of words like 'Sooz'. I know it's endearing to you lovebirds but it does appear like one of those number plates where people try to shoehorn their name in when the alphabet really won't accommodate it. Incidentally, thanks to the Arabs for the modern alphabet - forgot that one then Kilroy-Arse!

Hang out with more Welsh people; there is no 'v' in the Welsh language. Of course, if there was 'no f in Welsh'...
