Not enjoying this timetable. It's ruined what few eating habits I had and I am always tired. You would think I would be overjoyed at only having one early wake up but the problem is, I simply can't sleep late even though I can with impunity.

I thought today was going to be the fourth time a taxi driver took me to the wrong gate and it almost was. She turned into the route that is now blocked off and, because I had a problem explaining it, a security guard did. A bloke would have just dropped me off and left me to walk unless I objected but being a woman she went and found the right way. My fare for the journey is normally14-15¥ and when we got there in the end the meter read 19¥. I was quite happy to pay the extra because of her dedication but she absolutely refused to take anything more than 15¥. It restored my faith in humanity somewhat, it's the sort of thing I'd do.

Jody brought me the new virus-busting USB as I finished class. No bleeding instructions though. I decided tonight I would have a Big Mac because there's a Ronald's near the campus that I just discovered. Jody told me it's one stop on the 18 bus. Well I don't know where the 18 stops so I walked all the way (a different way to avoid the waste ground now it's dark when I leave) to where I expect to get a taxi and saw a bus ahead. It turned out to be a 46. Thinking it couldn't be far to McDonald's I thought sod it, I'll walk.

In fact it's not, except for me. But I got there. I saw four 18 buses going the other way and just ONE going my way, right before I crossed the junction to get to McDonald's! I'm not sure I will make a habit of doing that. Filled a hole but that's as far as it went.

I got home and plugged in my new Covid Weapon to instal something to show my classes tomorrow, got the laptop to scan the USB first and guess what? It found four viruses on the antivirus weapon itself! What????

God only knows what will happen tomorrow. As back up I have something that is proofed against this stuff, a documentary about the founder Rewi Alley but if Ice Age gets obliterated then Mr IT will be summoned.
