Weird man on TV!

More about that in a minute.

I tried to do my coursework today. I did, I really did. I was doing the Welsh thing, writing about the six short stories. I only managed to write a page and a half, and then it all went wrong. My concentration abandoned me, leaving me lost, cold, alone...

Or you could say that I just couldn't concentrate. Either way, I got hardly any work done. And I really, really must get it done. Perhaps tonight will prove fruitful when everyone's gone to bed. I'll go downstairs with my iPod. And write about those damned stories!

It's boring work. I mean, most essays might be strenuous to write, but they're never boring. There's always something interesting about the essay. But with the Welsh, I just can't be bothered. It's not challenging, not constructive. It's just too easy, and annoyingly long. Thus, I gave up on it.

Ooh! I think I'm going to the doctor's tomorrow to find out about this damned cough. It is really annoying, and it just pisses me off. I sound funny when I cough as well, because I can't breathe properly in between coughs. I make some sort of raspy, choking sound. Like a cross between choking and that sound a balloon makes when you stretch the end out and let the air out and it makes a "pvvvv" sound. Sort of like that.

Back to the weird man. I was bored last night, at about 3 or 4 o'clock in the morning, so I went downstairs to see if there was anything on TV. I watched a re-run of The Graham Norton Show and then I was just flicking through the channels, hoping to find something. I happened to stop on Discovery Realtime. Guess what was on. Go on, guess. Did you get Joy of Painting? I doubt it. Anyway, I watched for a moment. It really freaked me out; the way the man was talking - well, it sounded like he was getting turned on by the paint and/or the brushes. It was rather-very-quite™ weird. After about an hour or two's worth of searching, I found a clip. Unfortunately, he's not painting in the clip. He's feeding a squirrel. Go figure.

Note: You might have to refresh the page a few times for the clip to show up. It's not from YouTube, see.
