A nice lie in. Missed church, couldn’t face getting up. Too tired after watching anime until 2am, and 3am the previous night. Need to be up early tomorrow for work. I hate Monday’s. Damned healthy eating initiative kicks in tomorrow too. Oh well, it’s for my own good I suppose, so I’d better give it a shot this year.

2009-01-10T21:08:00.000Z

Up at 1pm, what Saturday’s are for. Boring trip grocery shopping, however necessary since food = life. Under the pretence of studying managed to get in several hours of anime and fanfic reading!

2009-01-09T21:08:00.000Z

Friday at last! Here ends the longest week of my life (slight exaggeration!). It just felt that way. Went to work, nothing more to add really.

2009-01-08T21:07:00.000Z

Derby 1 – 0 Man United. Nice. However I have a feeling they’ll annihilate us in the next round at Old Trafford. Oh well

2009-01-07T21:07:00.000Z

Omg is the week only halfway over? I really don’t want to work right now. However, am grateful for said work at the same time. Nothing interesting to add

2009-01-06T21:06:00.000Z

Meh. Back to work. Can’t be bothered to put anything else.

2009-01-05T21:06:00.000Z

3am this morning found me, Bailey, Vicky and long-haired-guy wrapped in duvets, in the common room, watching snow fall, playing StepMania and generally having a laugh. I think we all snuck back into the dorm at 5am. Mucho fun. Thankfully train was on time and got home ok. For the first time I can remember Bonnie didn’t want to leave the kennels! She’d palled up with another Westie called Lily. Awww..

2009-01-04T20:00:00.000Z

McDonalds = breakfast. Mmmm. Hung out around the dorms playing StepMania, watching Yu-Gi-Oh abridged (omg crying with laughter at times) and levelling up pokemon on my DS. Lots of fun was had. Couldn’t get to sleep, neither could some others so was up late chatting, Mike told us to keep it down and on long-haired-guy’s suggestion we made for the common room

2009-01-03T22:10:00.000Z

Hangover. Pretty much sums it up. Apologies made to Haruhi_Chibi. Must not drink spirits again. Must stick to beer. Higher tolerance there. Note to self. Went out and about later, ended up in an arcade watching many people doing DDR, guyinhat was very good, Neil and Adam too. A long and cold walk back to the hostel where a surprise party for Neil had been arranged, his face was priceless. Mind you, not as priceless as it had been at Big Wok when his birthday was announced over the tannoy! Lol. Lots of fun was had at the party. Need to remember that Bailey’s cocktails = death in a glass. This was the night the shower door got bust, after someone imbibed one of those now infamous cocktails…85% alcohol, am I right? Possibly more.

2009-01-02T21:04:00.000Z

Meeting everyone from AL at the train station was great, putting faces and RL names to user names online. Turns out picking dorm two was a good choice – on one hand all the crazy people are in dorm 2, however on the other hand that makes me also crazy! Once we’d all settled in drinking and music ensued.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

My new years resolution being to give this blog a new layout and update is under way. New layout has been implemented, although I still have to finish adding links and tagboard. Profile page is done and this is my first post of 2009!

The second part of my resolution was to post daily here, something I am terrible at remembering to do. As an added incentive I am going to make this blog the place I post all links to my fanfics, which should give me the prompt to post. Who knows what else I may decide to post here?

May 2009 bring you health and prosperity, and me a good memory!

Pity Party in a Tub

2008-07-22T19:36:00.004Z

And it's name is Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough Ice Cream.

Right now I am half way down a tub of it and it's pretty much the best way I could have envisioned spending this evening. Time well spent. This really is the food of people feeling very pitiful, for whatever reason.

I've never been a big fan of cookie dough, not really. As of now though, I think I've been converted, to the ice cream version at least.

So, I'll get back to it - half a tub to go and I'm feeling better already!

Too Early

2008-06-28T06:05:00.003Z

It's 7am on Saturday. My dog woke me up at 6.30 barking to get out into the garden. Thinking I'd better get up quick before there was a mess to clean up I dutifully got up, dashed downstairs and let her out. Only to find out that the reason she wanted out was to chase a neighbours cat...again. This is going to have to stop. Three mornings this week so far. Me and Bonnie are going to have a very serious conversation about respecting my Saturday morning lie-ins.

So that's what it feels like...

2008-06-24T20:52:00.003Z

Today I felt real pain for the first time in what seems like ages.

Whilst shutting the car door this morning I somehow managed to trap my finger in the car door and ripped the nail completely off the index finger on my right hand. Ouch! Blood everywhere. Works first aider almost passed out whilst cleaning and bandaging it up. Wuss. It was me who ripped their bloody nail off, not him.

Anyway am now all patched up and have already adjusted to not using that finger to type, write etc. In other news, wheels are in motion for my trip to Wicklow, Ireland, in August *YAY* and Chicago in November *WOOT*. Can't wait. Really can't wait. Seriously.

2007-10-22T22:15:00.000Z

1 x 1st edition 10GB iPod from 2003

Where? - under my bed (just shows how often I clean!)
When? - tonight, like half an hour ago, haven't seen it in years, wondered where it had gone
Working? - oh yes, charging as we speak and still has all the stuff on it that I loaded 4 years ago

Although it resembles both in size and weight a house brick I can't help but love this old white iPod more than my new neon blue uber small iPod shuffle.

It has sentimental value. So it's heavy, old, out-dated, only has a black and white screen, did I mention it was the size of a house brick?, but I love it and have dusted it down. Still top notch sound quality, even if it is old ;)

It's nice to be back

2007-10-21T21:32:00.000Z

Well I'm back on blogger after over a year on LJ. I just prefer blogger. I'll try and update more often but no promises cause you know I struggle to stick to them :p
