When I got in from work, I suddenly realised that I’d spent the entire day with my shirt inside out. Normally, being locked away in an office, I would have just sat down and thought “sod it”. But today I had a meeting about something called UniServity (no, it’s not a mis-spelling of ‘University’, or so they would have us believe). I wore my shirt, inside-out, during a meeting. So when I got in from work today and saw in the mirror that my shirt wasn’t right, instead of thinking “sod it”, I thought;

“Crud. Oh well, sod it.”

Since I’ve been back I’ve managed to avoid the score from the soccer as I have absolutely no interest in it, and instead I have been making minor updates to the site. The ‘About’ page has been updated (though there’s still a lot to be done, especially in regards to the FAQ) and I’ve done a minor update to the Choad Show page. Not only that, but I renamed the link from “Podcasts” to “The Choad Show” just to make life easier for everyone.

Dave and I have also come to an agreement regarding “The Choad Show” and that’s that we shall record it on a Saturday (giving us the opportunity to record on a Sunday should we be unable to manage the Saturday) with a weekly release every Monday.

The original site (now named “The Choad’s Archive of a Dumbass”) can now be found at http://archive.thechoad.com.

I’ve also tidied the links menu on the front page up a bit. I’ve also added buttons (or badges as they’re commonly known) just underneath, including a new one that I’ve made myself for Shloer Please feel free to download the image below it and put it on your own site if you have one and link it to the Shloer website;

So anyway, those are all fun. I also highly recommend that you click the “UK” one, as there’s a nice surprise waiting for you all there.

During the middle of all of these updates someone on MySpace sent me a message. I opened it and this is the message that I saw;

hey
im caz i was lookin at ur profile thought id send u a message
how are you
send bk
caz x

Now just to make it clear, I don’t know Caz. I know a Caz, but not this one. I even decided to check by looking at her profile pics. Now I’m not normally someone to judge or critisize, but it’s gone 1:30am and I’m too knackered to care right now, so I’m just going to say it;

I’m surprised she was able to bloody see my profile!!! When I saw the photos of her, half her face was covered up by her hair. The only time I’ve seen hair that long on the FRONT of someone’s face was when I saw Cousin IT on The Adam’s Family! Her hair completely covered her eyes and was as far down as her nose - in every pic!

In fact, there was one pic which had this underneath;

aaaaaahhhhhh pink hair no i love it even though i hate the colour pink

Well yeah, that would be all fne and dandy if it wasn’t for the fact that her hair was blatantly red! I’m talking a blood red here, the kind of red you don’t mistake for pink - it was blatantly red! Half of her face was covered in red hair!

But I didn’t reply to her. And I’m not going to reply to her. It’s not because of her hair. It’s not because half her pictures are of bands I don’t even know. It’s because of one small thing…

I absolutely hate it when people say “send bk” or “txt back”. It completely puts me off ever replying. Normally, if I receive a message, unless there’s a good reason why I can’t I generally try to respond to every message I get. If someone asks me to reply that’s fine. But when they demand that I reply it just seems plain rude and I can’t be bothered to reply.

But you know what? I think I might reply actually. I’ll do it respectfully too. Okay, this is the message that I’m about to copy and paste into MySpace and reply with;

Hi Caz,

Just sending this back as you requested.

Al.

There, sent.

If she does it again I swear I’ll start calling her Gerald….
