It took me three hours to get to work this morning and it just took me almost two hours to get home (note: on a good day, traffic-wise, I can do the same journey in well under an hour). It should be Saturday tomorrow. *pouts*

The weather is miserable. Our Zimbabwean worker was adamant that we can't call this 'summer' because that's clearly not an applicable term to the weather we've been having all bloody week.

In other news, Dougal seems to be getting skinnier and skinnier, though he's still eating and drinking - while it's going in one end and coming out of the other, I'm trying not to worry about him too much. At the moment he is getting preferential treatment with the chicken paste and the Ferretvite, and that certainly seems to have perked his appetite up again. Poor old sod.

E.T.A And now the latest Windoze 'security update' has completely sporked the internet connection on my desktop. I know this because a) my Ubuntu laptop still connects (otherwise I wouldn't be posting) and b) I did a system restore and it connected perfectly first time and then I reinstalled the Windoze stuff again and it wouldn't work. Grrrr.

Further E.T.A. Apparently this may have something to do with a problem between the Windoze update and ZoneAlarm firewalls. Sheesh.
