Fri 9 July 2004 - Meaningless numbers

Number of days until the next Here Is My meme entry: 2. (The plan is to post one every Sunday). Have your cameras ready!

Number of people I’ve seen on the train this week reading The Da Vinci Code: 4 5 — including two in the same carriage.

Number of TV shows I endeavour to catch every week, no matter what: only 2 3 as a matter of fact — The Sopranos, Seven Wonders of the Industrial World. And how could I have forgotten Media Watch?

Number of e-mails sent from home since Sunday: 187. From other locations? Oh, I can’t be bothered counting them.

Number of reminders the Blood Bank have sent me about donating blood when they’re in my area again next week: 2 (one letter, one phone call. Thankfully the latter was a cut above your average telemarketer drone.)

Highest number of comments so far for one of my blog posts: 34 for April Fool’s Day.

Number of drinks I had yesterday: 3 cups of tea, 1 mug of hot chocolate, 2 orange juices, 1 glass of dark grape juice, 1 drink of water.

Number of bottles of orange juice the bloke in the cafe at lunch yesterday was claiming had disappeared in the 24 hours since he’d placed them there: 18. (Maybe a lot of people with colds wanting a Vitamin C hit?)

Temperature outside right now: 9.4 degrees C.

How many more meaningless numbers today after this one: 0.
