Quote of the
day: "Melissa is jealous of Darcy, and Rachel is jealous of them both. They shouldn't be. Why did Rome have a thousand-year golden era of peace? Because they were inclusive. When the Romans conquered a people, they didn't attempt to force their own religion or politics on them; nor did they kill them or cut them off from the capitol. No, Rome incorporated these disparate ways of life into itself, and the empire blossomed and there was a rainbow of ideas." Drugs Are Nice -- Lisa Crystal Carver |
Wow, what has
happened? The first week of
May has come and gone and I haven't found time
for a blog?! Work. Don't mention it. I must give off the impression of somebody not able to cope who's "taking things too personal" (Amanda). But it is too much work for one, so it's probably a good idea to shift some of my projects to Muriel (who's apparently "bored"). I've been
trying to diet this week, so no
alcohol. Sadly my good intentions of going to
the gym weren't fulfilled
due to working too much and too late... One good thing: I've got the holidays for the last week of May signed off and we have booked the flight and hotel. That was quite a struggle on expedia.com! And how expensive is New York?! Outrageous! I hope the hotel I've picked will prove to be a good choice. No trips this week, but next weekend I'm in London/Birmingham. Kristine and I have been trying to find out which club the Birmingham gig is at, but there's absolutely no information available! I emailed Frank and after an eternity he replied saying that he won't know which club the organizer chooses until one day before the event! Huh?! Surely the club will want to print some flyers and stuff?! Or is it a "secret" gig?! Frank has now confirmed that the gig will be at The Works, but I can't help feeling he only picked that place because Kristine and I have been suggesting it in the first place! LOL Yesterday I had
a good experience at
Staples! My printer was broken (for no apparent
reason, it just fucked
up!!). So I remembered that I had taken out this
Product Replacement Plan
when I bought it, so I took the printer down to
the shop to see what they
could do for me. I hate these trips to the
customer service, because I'm
always half-expecting them to go: "Oh, but
that insurance of course
doesn't cover that device..." or
"You'll have to send that 50-kilo
device in to the manufacturer..." I should
mention one major event that
took place last weekend: I've seen Stephen in
jeans! LOL I've finally met my neighbours Jade and Michael. They were concerned that their new-born baby was making too much noise. I don't mind. They are way better than the chavs that lived in the house before them! I'd rather be woken up by a baby screaming at 4 in the morning than by Eminem! |
The
orthographically challenged mob on
the Other Side are gearing up for a
comeback. How lovely! I can't
wait to be banned again... Everybody
pretends to be oh-so cool and
sexually liberated and ambiguous and kinky, but
just look how shocked they
are by those harmless gaydar pictures! They
can't stop going on about
them. |
