Tom Jones makes it all better. That self-assured, golden-larynxed, icon of manliness has told to stop being so self-indulgent and reminded me that I am great, and that my heart hasn't been broken yet. :-)
Where's my chest wig?
I had an almost fun day at work too, as I succeeded in breaking the quotation system I'm testing. This is good. Testing things that work is getting very tedious and I can do it with less than half my concentration, leaving too much mental capacity for brooding, panicking, humming Frank Sinatra songs, smiling soppily or just staring at a cup of coffee.* When stuff goes wrong I actually have to focus, and explain to people why/how it is wrong. Now I am the Man Who Breaks Things.
*The label on the machine says it's coffee. I suspect that the large white pipe coming out of the wall just pumps it up from the river Wensum.
