Nothing matters in our private universe
"Hello you," I said, padding into the living room."Mmm," Mike said, not looking up from a piece of paper covered in scribble.
"What's that?"
"Just this thing," Mike said quietly.
I moved to look over his shoulder and caught Mike's eyes.
"What thing?" I said.
He paused. "A Countdown thing."
"A Countdown thing?"
"Yes, I just can't figure out the numbers that were on earlier."
"Ah," I said, fully aware Countdown was on rather a long time ago.
Half an hour later he was victorious, having figured out how to make 796 out of 4, 4, 5, 6, 3 and 5.
What am I living with?
Edit: You can see Mike's geekiness paying off here which he "just made". Isn't he annoying/wonderful?

Aaaaargh! I'd been trying 4 4 5 6 3 5 for hours!
Hello Mike! Odd seeing you around here ;). Making the progression from character to real person are we?
Robin, sorry! I didn't realise. Perhaps you should watch Countdown! When does your job start?

Bah! 794, 795, and I give up.
I start work on the 11th, I'll try and get round to actually blogging about it today.
Good, I await said blog (sounding like a lawyer:D).
