Bayer is trying to sue Europe to overturn the ban on neonicotinoids, mere months after it was passed and a few months before it will actually be enforced. If you feel strongly about this, you go here to sign a petition to tell them to fuck off.

I'm so tired. After a lot of to-ing and fro-ing I eventually got in touch with my worker with my new mental health service, and he came last week for a short visit to arrange our future visits, and then he came today for our first proper visit. I'd mentioned maybe tidying my bedroom, which I was then freaking out a little about, but it turned out I didn't need to worry because today we were just filling in preliminary forms. Also talking about the internet and dance shows, among other things. But between worrying about the appointment and a few OCD issues I haven't had a lot of sleep lately, and he stayed for two hour and we didn't really get anything done besides forms. And I had a knock on the door from a delivery person that I didn't answer, so I need to go pick up a package tomorrow or some time. I think it's either a hat or a book. And at least the Post Office is open till 8pm tomorrow. I've also had a letter from the doctor's about a smear test, so I need to go talk to someone about that. At least I don't have to sort out my doctor's note again - I got a letter saying it hadn't arrived at the Jobcentre, and I called the Jobcentre and they said it STILL hadn't arrived, but yesterday I had more money in my bank account than I did last week, and I can't think of anyone but the Jobcentre who might have done that. So hurrah.

Also I have been replaying an RPG I love, which has been taking up quite a bit of time. It's funny, I know it's sort of cheat-y, but I think I enjoy RPG a little better the second time around on a role-playing level. After you've actually gotten used to the world, and where your character probably came from in it. It's nice, anyway. But time-consuming. And a little sad that I love replaying those games more than I love playing or replaying the sequels to them. Ah well. Also I have been watching TV. I don't know if I like them squashing Coronation Street onto Sundays and Mondays to make way for football, but that's what we all have to put up with. I like the amount of sleeping Joe is doing in this series of Vera. And Touch Of Cloth was genuinely atrocious last week, but this week marginally better. Although it might have just been the relief that it was AS shit as last week. And it ended randomly on a slash pairing. A slash pairing I may have considered in the past. I'm saying nothing. The only time I've ever found Julian Rhind-Tutt particularly attractive. People who have actually watched A Touch Of Cloth will probably know why.

And I've been having some real problems with my internet over the past couple of days. I've been downloading a lot of pictures off Google Search lately, and I found my internet just giving out, dropping the signal every five minutes since then. At first I thought I'd broken my computer or broken my wireless modem somehow. But then I tried clearing my cache, and then I remembered how Google is always banging on about it's cookie policy and cleared my cookies, and now it is fine again! Ah. It's almost like, ten years after getting on the internet, I am finally figuring out how to use my computer. Larks.
