h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well that's what it says above the display box when you accidentally hit the preview button and the journal entry is displayed witha title but no date of entry.

Odd, slightly shocking and quite enrgising, if your like me and work best with a tight deadline.

Anyway Ive really hurt my back it is really rubbish not being able to do even simple things like put my socks on without a great deal of pain struggle and swearing. The swearing is caused not just by the pain but general frustration too.

Even without that Im not having a great time, it looks like I'll be out of a job in December and I quite like it here, but nothing is permanent these days I guess. Then there's my business idea which has hit the skids becauseof people being just plain difficult and digging their heels in for some reason they wont really elaborate on.

So things are pretty bad except for two great things this weekend. Once my friends and family had squuezed every drop of comedy out of my temporary invalidity they all did their best to help out with little things.

On sunday when the juniors were playing very well and using most of the stuff I and the other coaches had been trying to get them to do in training one of the players in a tight corner pulled off a fantastic box kick.

After the game he came over and thanked me for teaching him it

Get thee to an osteopath!

Bummer about the job and the back pain. Hope it's nothing serious (the back) and you get your employment / self-employment sorted sooner rather than later.

Isn't it great when kids appreciate something? Nothing like it in the world.

Recently my son gave me a huge hug and told me what a brilliant teacher I'll be (since that's my long-term goal) after I explained some German grammatical clauses to him and he ended up getting housepoints from his teacher at school as a result. He was well proud to say "my Mom taught me that"

Well...I'd never have guessed I was on either of your's friends lists.

There's something else that's cheered me up

Word up Bro, and get well soon.

Or would you prefer a ?

Harsh about the job, I am sure you will find one soon.

Are you going to the Seville meet BTW?

Aww.. Shucks, Blicky

Glad to be able to spread a bit of sunshine.

At least I think it was a compliment?

Bad back - ouch! Hope you take it easy and recover soon

As you know, I'm no stranger to back problems. Have you been to the doctor or are you doing anything specific for it?

I'm sorry to hear that the biz idea has been quashed (and of course I already knew about the job). Oh heck, have another one.

Tell you what. I'll keep saving up all sorts of little odd jobs around the flat for you to do when you come here in March - that oughtta give you something to look forward to.

Hope you're feeling better soon.
