johncomic | my gruntles have been removed

The year is not off to a flying start, inasmuch as I am beset by oddities:

I woke this morning with a migraine [not a hangover, I didn't drink] and unexplained dizziness which took a few hours to ease off
My cellphone started misbehaving, by not displaying the correct keys I need to operate the current screen I'm using. I needed to pull the battery out, then back in, to get it to smarten up. It's never done this before.
One of the smoke alarms started giving random false alarms. Time for a new one, I guess. However, since it's today, nowhere is open for me to get one.

It feels a lot like living in a Road Runner cartoon...
