It’s Tuesday, so it must be a running (and washing) day

I went out to do the four mile street route tonight and didn’t go the wrong way this time and so did all four miles.  Hurrah.  It was raining and running in the rain, in the dark, with my iPod blaring top tunes into my ears was absolutely fab. For the first mile.  And the fourth mile.  Miles two and three were bobbins.  Especially the second mile.  Well, actually to be more precise, from 1.5 to 2.5 miles I wanted to stop and walk.

As well as Tuesday being a running day, Tuesday is now another washing day.  Washing day used to be on Saturday but now that I’ve started running and going to the gym, there’s soooooooooooooooooo much washing.  Tons of it.  I live on my own and did four lots of washing at the weekend.  Where does it come from?  I did washing on Saturday and it’s only Tuesday and I’ve just crammed another load in.  Ho hum.

Next Tuesday is Pancake Day and I said to Kate do you want to go to the Pancake House in Holborn next Tuesday as it’s Pancake Day.  And she said I’d love to but do you mean Tuesday the 27th of February, as that’s when my calendar says is Shrove Tuesday.  I said, hmm, I meant next Tuesday, the 20th of February, as that’s when my diary says is Shrove Tuesday.  Kate said, ooh, you’re right, but my calendar says it’s on the 27th, serves me right for buying a calendar of Essex.

I solved the iTunes won’t tell me what songs it recently played on my iPod Shuffle thing.  I  realised that because it’s a Shuffle and iTunes just randomly puts songs on there, they’re already shuffled, so if I turn on the Shuffle so it’s not on shuffle, then it will play the songs in sequence and I can just look at the contents on the Shuffle on iTunes to see which tunes it played, as long as I can remember the first and last songs it played.  Yah, clever me.
