Life on Mars

Tuesday, 6 April 2010
Location: Home (NW2 4SJ)
Feeling: Sick. Was v tired due to 8:15 am class, but a 4 hour nap fixed that right up. Hm.

Accidentally deleted a paragraph I've written before. Not happy.

So yes - I continue to procrastinate as piles of reading on managing change, work on second year project and pages of unanswered emails await me.
It was a good day today. I got to wear my new winter coat which looks and feels like a tent. I feel cosy in a tent :) Also got to contemplate repercussions of discovery of extraterrestrial life in class. Whenever an MBA class results in such a contemplation, it is a good day.
So, in doubt about the likelihood of extraterrestrial life and needing to unearth the latest in the search for such, I turn to Wiki....
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraterrestrial_life
So no aliens for now. Oh well.

Word of the day: (2 today!)
sentience: the ability to feel or perceive subjectively
sapience: wisdom /ability of organism or entity to act with appropriate judgement

Ran into a person in the street today that freaked me out and made me very uncomfortable (eeky) for no apparent reason. It took me a while but eventually I worked it out. It was because his facial features reminded me of Ross. Even mentioning his name produces the same feeling. Morbid curiosity forced me to look him up on facebook. Where he does indeed exist. I was relieved to see that we have no friends in common. *Phew*
I do hope Mischball, with the same morbid sense of curiosity and desire for trouble (which is MUCH stronger than my own) actually goes ahead and adds him. *Shudder*

It's interesting when the desire to clean and organise strikes. I haven't noticed a pattern as yet. I had a sizeable Spring Clean yesterday. I have even started an attempt to computerise my wardrobe... I am distracted by a question which increasingly bothers me... Why is there a ladybug infestation in our apartment??? Seriously?
I mean, it beats cockroaches, but it is still odd, no???

Ladybug infestation - we had one as well last autumn and from the news reports it sounded like we weren't the only ones - if I remember correctly they aren't native ladybugs, bigger than native ones and are taking over.
