Whelp, nothing interesting happened today, so it's time for that old fallback plan, Anecdotes of the Family Von Froodle.

Some of you may already know that I suffer from what Ranma 1/2 fans call "Azusa Complex", the desire to name any inanimate objects in my possession. That's why you sometimes hear me talking about the state of Sanzo's hardrive or Yukimura's inability to perform - it just means my computer's being a bitch and my CD player is misbehaving.

So, I've just got back from uni and I'm getting changed and taking all my jewellery off in preparation for cooking dinner. Buzz and I are in my room, discussing the difficulties I'm having running Sims 2 on Sanzo. I jokingly suggest giving him a cigerrette to improve his tember. Buzz suggests naming another piece of hardware Homura, connecting them up and leaving them to "extract data" for a while. I say that I can't do that, because all my hardware has names. I then introduce them all: the scanner is called Hakkai, the printer is Gojyo, the modem is Goku, the two speakers are Merry and Pippin and the subwoofer is Boromir. At which point Buzz glances at the pile of abandoned jewellery sitting on top of the speaker system, snaps "Boromir!" reprovingly, before gathering up my rings and bracelets and moving them to the other side of the desk.

Bwah-ha-ha!

Have finally defeated the evil virus that was stopping me connecting to the internet. And by 'defeated', I mean 'paid a computer fixin' guy £40 to erase everything in my hard-drive in order to get Sanzo to work again'. Le sigh.

In other news: how fucking hard can it be to find honey-scented candles? In a world where you can buy candles that smell of pears, why am I having so much difficulty finding one that emits the delicious scent of young and tender hobbits?

'Cause you know that's the real reason Sherlock Holmes was into bee-keeping.
