Well, I got my hung parliament, and whilst this is a supremely better outcome than the prospect of a straight Conservative majority it is all a bit unsettled. Does raise prospect of possible Vince Cable for Chancellor (okay, very faint prospect, but the thought of Gideon as Chancellor is scary) so, erm. Let's hope the chaos works like it should, and brings Britain a fairer system.

Still, it is very disturbing that not only did the Lib Dems get thrashed, the Tories did remarkably well. Not impressed.

Also very disturbed that David Dimbleby is more hardcore than I am. I went to bed at 2am, having given up on the whole procedure and also quite drunk. I woke up and Dimbleby was still on the telly. I had the BBC news on in the background in work, and there was Dimbleby. LET THE POOR MAN SLEEP, HE IS AT LEAST FOUR HUNDRRED YEARS OLD. I am so tired that I am not able to form sentences properly.

Hurrah for Caroline Lucas!

... okay, no more typing for me. I still need to finish my LGBT-fest fic. It is due tomorrow. A combination of general elections and job interviews have possibly completely bollocksed me up for this one. FAIL.

That made me laugh! Precious few things have done that today!

Instead of concentrating on all the fail things about this election - and oh, they are many - I have gone a bit crazy on exhaustion and am genuinely concerned for his welfare. They say he was a corner street with a swingometer in 1836, you know.
