Realising there is not much point in accepting the offer of a free bunch of mistletoe

Doing paperwork. Being behind on paperwork. Doing paperwork while everyone else is having fun. Realising there is so much paperwork that you will have to spend tomorrow on it, as well.

The whole slow and ignorant mass of fools in the state bureaucracy should be sent in Mordor.

We have...the most horrible vaccuum in the world...

The hose setup is ridiculous. I'll vaccuum a whole huge room, to find out the hose had come disconnected and I have to do it over again. There is no suction worth mentioning at all, so I can never tell if the hose is disconnected, or if it's going full-force.

I just carried it down two stairs, and so help me it dumped a load of rocks all over the floor.

*weeps*

I assign to Mordor:

Delayed flights that mean you could have joined what looks like it's going to be a spectacular game of Werewolf, with several fantastic players including the legendary Nilp... If you had only known sooner.

Good effort. Problem is, the nature of bureaucracy is to create Mordor wherever it is, so I'm afraid it always does work, just not how we want it to.

Due to a circumstances too tedious to relate I have been without a functioning washing machine since Sept - so I have been using the laundrette which isn't a bit deal other than it results in having more damp washing than I have capacity to dry inside or with tiny tumble dryer .. so I decided to use the dryers at the laundrette for th big important stuff...

Of course some moron had to leave (Why????) a biro in the tumble dryer I put my work tops in...not the one with dark towels in.... I loved spending the evening making not entirely successful experiments with various stain removers and handwashing....
