i: woke with horrible pressure headache -- bit better after anadin extra but bleagh
ii: then NO COFFEE -- tea no substitute at all
iii: THEN smashed little finger into doorframe in stupid clumsy way X(
iv: plus both pads have broken off glasses, which they do way too easily on these ones -- easily replaced but £10 is £10 pah

had strange dream where i was checking off a great list of all my schoolteachers to find who was still alive, who (if any) still working -- i think inspired by "gorgo" in love&rockets (beto version), who spends his time looking for people, in stories that make great jumps into the past, and who rather resembled a french teacher at my school 8-12, who (at that time) had been at the school for more than 40 years (and so has presumably retired now) (hard to check as i can't remember his name)

haha my mum had an ever-lengthening list of links between her schooldays and horrible events in the news: it included lord lucan -- tho i forget the exact connection there, not very direct i suspect -- and dr buck ruxton; something about seeing* him pick up his kids from school with a bandage on his hand (there cz he had cut himself chopping his wife and maid into little bits earlier in the day)

the list always ended, somewhat lamely (she knew this, and played it for laughs): "and my father had a friend who was very interested in crippen"

*tho since it happened the year she was born, i assume it wasn't HER that saw this, possibly her dad**
**when halley's comet revisited in 1986, her mum regaled us all with descriptions of how much more exciting it had been in 1910 -- viz how it had HURTLED across the sky at great speed with a violent roaring hiss!
