Everything will look better in the morning

Today, were it not for the excellent photography skills of Ostrich (who I should probably start paying or something), you would be seeing cracks. Not such dramatic ones as on the Black Swan posters (really want to see that movie), but cracks nonetheless.

The sign in the background is a very accurate summation of our current situation 

I really should have stayed in bed today. Or got something useful done, like, oh I don't know, maybe revision for the Law exam on Monday. On the plus side, I have much better self-control than I'd previously realised.

Also, I'm very tired of people telling me what it's like 'in the real world', 'on a real paper' or any variation thereof, especially when they are using it to justify interfering with my ability to get the qualifications that will let me work in the real world.

That's all I'm going to say on the matter.

In the interests of this post not being wholly negative, some more junk mail (my last batch seems to have had a bizarrely enthusiastic reception):

Dear Mrs Tina Samson,

I'm afraid I'm not sure I'd meet your standards, as I have very little experience of business and am not at all reliable.

Best,

Sir/Madam
