Stumbling around in the dark.

For around the past hour I’ve been sitting in the complete dark (the bulbs are out in this room and there’s none in the house to replace them. damnit) and I’ve realised that I can’t touch type in the dark. Seriously, what is up with that? I can touch type pretty darn quickly, since I have been typing since I was about 5 years old, but once you hit the lights I have major problems. I keep loosing my ‘home’ keys, and typing gibberish. Do any of you have problems typing in the dark, or is it just me being an idiot?!

So - since I can’t type I’ve been hitting ‘Stumble’ on my StumbleUpon toolbar, and generally being amused at the website’s I’m coming across. This quote from a website is one of my favourites;

My flight was being served by an obviously gay flight attendant, who seemed to put everyone in a good mood as he served us food and drinks.

As the plane prepared to descend, he came swishing down the aisle and told us “Captain Marvey has asked me to announce that he’ll be landing the big scary plane shortly, so lovely people, if you could just put your trays up, that would be super.”

On his trip back up the aisle, he noticed an extremely well-dressed and exotic young woman hadn’t moved a muscle. “Perhaps you didn’t hear me over those big brute engines but I asked you to raise your trazy-poo, so the main man can pitty-pat us on the ground.”

She calmly turned her head and said, “In my country, I am called a Princess and I take orders from no one.”

To which the flight attendant replied, without missing a beat, “Well, sweet-cheeks, in my country I’m called a Queen, so I outrank you. Tray up, Bitch.”

One of my friends is a flight attendant, typically gay and this is the sort of thing I can see him doing. It’s priceless!

Since I’m honestly having real problems typing (I still don’t understand why…) I’m going to do some coursework, and track down rechargable batteries for my digital camera, because that thing eats batteries like you wouldn’t believe. It’s a Canon aswell, and Kodak Digital Camera Batteries only last about 15 pictures!!
