my chest of drawers. It was crap anyway. The top drawer came off its little plastic runners which sent it crashing down onto the drawer below in a kind of domino effect, as that then crashed dwon onto the drawer below. I tried glueing the runners back on with Araldite. This lasted about a week, after which I resorted to a hammer and nails. The drawers are now going back and forth, but they are very stiff and I think I'll have to give in and suggest that my landlord buys a new chest of drawers. Problem is, he is sure to blame me and tell me that I've been putting too many articles of clothing in the drawers, which is probably true.

I just two minutes ago stepped on my copy of Geogaddi. It probably still plays though but there you go, right-up-to-the-minute breakage action!

I bet it sounds warped now...

the other night I was at a bar and this guy insisted on showing me some kind of plasticy, purple, um, utility card thingie. It was all very confusing, I'm pretty sure it was made by the swiss army people, it had some useful things on it and was the size of a credit card, to fit in the wallet, y'understand.

Yeah so anyway, I immediately broke it. I broke the protractor part off it. A look of horror came over his face. Then my friend used the toothpick from it, and it was all over.

We tried to make amends with him, but he had obviously not had much experience with loud, clumsy girls who take liberties with other people's personal hygeine items. For the rest of the night he just stared at us with the look of someone sickly fascinated by a car wreck.

I pushed a candle off a ladder yesterday.

One of the lights in the bathroom. Not the light itself, but the thing that held it onto the wall. #47 in a series of things I've managed to destroy already in my new house.

I always break cd cases. I should tidy so that I don't have to tread on them to get anywhere, but I'm too lazy. My headphones always break and I don't know why, I can't even work out if it's them or the adaptors or the hi-fi because all three seem to act broken sometimes and not others. Grr.

Perhaps next I should concentrate my energy on breaking some bones so that I don't have to get up tomorrow morning to go and type in email addresses and batch-convert files.

Coincidentally, a friend of mine was showing off one of those uitility card thingies during lunch today. I didn't get to touch it tho, so intact it remains.
