Day O Daaaaay O

Web Surfing, Waste | at 01:01 AM

Shitty miserable day today as usual. I get up at 10, think I'm going to do many things, end up doing 1/10th of what I wanted to do, plus doing things I wasn't supposed to do. My eternal concentration and motivation problems.

What do I even remember of this day anyway ? Just bits and pieces. I wrote some html and some tiny wee php code for a new project, if I keep this pace, I'll have the site ready by 2031. I read about Paris Hilton chosen to play Mother Theresa by an Indian director, and other funny news in this site. I found it thanks to their hilarious headline about Daniel Craig losing two teeth during a stunt on the set of Casino Royale, the headline was: "James Bond Loses His Teeth, Gets Defended By Dracula" (because Christopher Lee gave his support to Craig).

Then I prepared some articles for 1UP, "prepare" is hardly the word since all I did was playing. Well, later I did write but it didn't last long, inspiration wasn't at the rendez-vous today. After this, it gets worse, it's the blackout, I can't remember what happened the next few hours, I suppose I just browsed aimlessly whle eating crepes. Or not exactly, my aim was to check some web designs, so I went to CSS Zen Garden but when it was time to go back home, I guess I lost my way and ended in some sites where I shouldn't have been. Hey, I'm not talking about THOSE sites !

Library (the real one) was my next stop. And I couldn't find a book, believe it or not ! There were plenty of books of course, but nothing that I needed or felt like taking, so what did I do ? I went to the computer and to the Internet. O, shame of a life. It's good that I write all this down , it'll make me feel ashamed next time I'll read it. In the evening, before work, I finally tried to do some design, fearing the slow computer, my worst nightmare, but it behaved today. It's not that bad that it couldn't handle a 500x500 pic and 10 layers, thankfully. Accidentally, the design tests I was doing turned into something completely different and as a result I published a new deviation, which had not happened for more than a year, and which had not ever happened if you consider what was my first deviation.

Now it's almost 1 am and I'm wondering if within one hour I could still save the day and do all the things I was supposed to do today, well, yesterday. Let's ponder about this (but not too long because time is money) while listening (well, reading, I don't have music) to Harry Belafonte's Day O which inspired me today's entry title:

Harry Belafonte - Day O Lyrics
