how tidy your room is... mine is in a constant state of disarray, despite my meager effort to clean and tidy... what's that word? entropy? where things inevitably and steadily deteriorate, degenerate into chaos... my room suffers from that entropy...
yippee... i found it... it's the Second Law of Thermodynamics... or else i won't be able to sleep...
see http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/therm/entrop.html#e3
funny how bits of stuff learnt during Physics, my most hated subject in school, still sticks somewhere in the back of my mind, like somebody's discarded and flavourless chewing gum that is stuck on the sole of my life and refuses to come off despite efforts to scrape the darn thing clean...
oh... and speaking of soles... must try and get a pair of those nice looking feet for my room too... where ever did you find them? was there a discount if one buy's both sides? i wonder...
My dear Colin, what were you doing searching for the second law of thermodynamics at 2:30 in the morning?? Was it out of reluctance to wake up on Monday morning?
Re: the room and entropy, I know what you mean. I am trying very hard to stem the tide for at least a year. Wish me luck! :)
Feet not for sale. ;) Though if you want, I'll recommend a peppermint massage foot lotion and soft lovely socks so yours will feel all spiffy too.
lolz... no, i got up bright and early despite the late night... had to get into the office on time...
every few weeks, i have a report due for the monday investment meeting... i usually get it out of the way by Sunday evening... sometimes, however, i have to pull a late night because of Newton's First Law, (the one about inertia)...
last weekend was one of those, where i procrastinated and procrastinated till after the apprentice was over before i hunkered down to complete it... hence, my post at 2.30am... u should know that i also had a huge cup of coffee to sustain me... probably that's what re-opened the long forgotten pathways, firing up the synapse to the deep and buried knowledge of obscure theories of physics...

Nice pastel colours :)
- carine
ToT - Having stuff due on Monday is not cool. Kinda ruins the weekend, no?
Coffee does do wonders. Coffee and sugar is even better. :)
Carine - thanks!
