Guess whose back? (it's my back) -
Categories: I was slightly narked when I came in from work today, and I've no idea why. Just one of those things. So I changed my Facebook status to 'Paul is narked but has absolutely no idea why'. A couple of clicks and I see that only one minute earlier, m'pal Russ made his status 'Russ is euphoric and has no idea why'. How odd. Then my housemate walked in and said, "I'm really tired and I've no idea why." So, what were you feeling at about 8pm tonight, and you've no idea why?
Another thing of whose origin I know not, is that I've hurt my back. And it wasn't that 'bend down, pick up a crate, crack!' moment. Just went, on Friday, when I leant forward half a millimetre. I've never hurt it this bad before - it's a constant pain. Anyway, doctor's orders are to keep it moving, by swimming and/or cycling and/or running. ie. Do a triathlon. I wonder if it's too late to enter the Olympic team?
Speaking of which, that torch relay was fun, wasn't it? At least we now know what all those rings on the Olympic symbol stand for. First there’s the outer ring of policemen in black, then another ring of policemen in yellow with cycle helmets but no bikes, then an inner ring of ninjas in blue tracksuits, then Trevor McDonald plus a flame in the middle. From above, it looked like those old British Airways adverts. I thought it was an eye, winking. Anyway, put those Chinese marshalls in the games I say - they ran 31 miles without changing personnel, so they're fit for the marathon, the relay, and by the looks of their dealings with some of the crowd, the boxing.
