Oh, nooooo! Finally got around to dragging myself through the online shopping. At considerable mental cost to myself, I managed to selected items. Just as I thought I could take no more and would click through to the cash desk The System, or maybe just me, deleted my whole shopping basket, irretrievably.
EDIT: I retrieved my shopping basket after all, and bought the stuff. Drained me, though.

Just spent several hours clearing out the filing cabinet and I'm still only half way through  | | | | | I started the paperless office thing at home several years ago by scanning everything into the computer, and where applicable shredding the originals.
Yes it's very nice being able to retrieve stuff on the computer, but if you need a hard copy you just have to print the thing again, might as well keep the originals.

The updated firefox has the refresh button on the left - and after two days I'm still looking for it on the right hand side.

A full day at work takes so much out of me that I can't even wind down and relax by planning the holiday that I'm looking so much forward to. I pretty much go almost straight to bed, or I'm forced to work a bit more before that.
I always thought that procrastination tendencies would put relax / pleasure ahead of work that could be delayed until the last minute. It's not working... (pun intended)
