The Gmail Grump & Other Stories

IMG_7573

I was going to write one astonishingly clever, all-round witty and remarkable Sunday post (oh yes I was, I was. I. Was.) But now I can't help but only grumble the fact that Gmail is acting up in a very unpleasant way. The second time in a short period and this after being so sweet and accommodating for as long as I've had the account. And there were a whole lot of email I had every intention to both write, reply and send today. VIP-mail, and I really hate (yes) to have to switch back and forth between different email accounts and addresses here and there, it's just so messy, time consuming and inefficient. Almost beyond words annoying this is. And right now I really do not care that this falls into the category of I-country problems.

As this makes me feel very less than an amazingly zappy zinger (yeah) this weekend will instead be rounded off with a furry fuss cuddle (see picture above), as shared grump is half the grump, before I head to bed with Mr Y - having read my way to the second third of my first book of 2009 I can so far report that it's a brilliant not so wee read, an irrepressible mix of thought experiments, physics, homeopathy, life, academics add a spice mix with lack of decent food, too much caffeine and a whole lot more...

  6. Forever Feline, thanks! Yes, one can not live without cats or books, so I count my blessings as far as that's concerned when my email doesn't work:)

    Thanks, Terry, looking forward to your RT post then:)

    Myself I put it down, though reluctantly, Prixie, and try to savour the words and thoughts, since there's such a lot to grasp. Yes it is pretty darn great!
