toofliI am the god of hellfire and I bring you... April 22 September eh...Haven't been on here because I went back to LiveJournal and have also been on MySpace. Not being able to upload pictures got on my nerves and three blogs is too many. September 25 Goodness me, I haven't been on here for ages!Hmm, well, I haven't. I did defect to Live Journal, but I don't really like it.
Was enjoying the summer too much to blog about it, but now I'm back at work and need the outlet. Actually, it's not that bad now I've readjusted. I'd still rather be at home though.
Summer plans: V festival (achieved, A&V freaked John out somewhat)
Moseley bog (Nope)
Dudley Zoo (Nope)
Find a yoga class (well, not in the summer, but there is one starting at the library on Saturday)
Decorate a room of the house (painted the kitchen ceiling and resurfaced the living room ceiling)
Write something (did some more short stories)
Unsurprisingly I've bought some more clothes and shoes. Surprisingly, I haven't been to any mod dos since, June probably. That's too long. There's an alldayer on Saturday, but I've been out loads recently so I'm not planning to go. I'm saving myself for the allnighter at the end of October. I've also got my first DJ slot for months then. It's Robert's birthday weekend too, he's mentioned something about taking A&V to his parents (it's half-term, but of course I've got jury service). A good opportunity to wear my white mini dress anyway (no I still haven't worn it). Not sure if I like the white handbag I bought though.
Bought a bicycle this summer, so I'm a few inches closer to riding a scooter. I'm warming up to taking it on the road (a very quiet road).
House sale still hasn't gone through, although it's supposed to be imminent. I hope so, because then I'll be eligible for an enormous grant to get lots of exterior work done.
Anna's started Brownies and likes it. Vespa doesn't like being without Anna when she's at Rainbows. Oh well.
I wonder if I can upload photos now. June 21 Star TrekAs Roswell has superseded Monkey as six o'clock viewing (they're showing series three now, there's a different Pigsy and there's no Gandhara at the end!), we were in need of some family viewing. Thank goodness they are showing the original Star Trek on the Sci-Fi channel. Unfortunately, I was so tired after yesterday's episode that I put the girls to bed and then fell asleep myself. I can't wait till the weekend so I can sleep.
June 18 Celebrating SanctuaryWent to Celebrating Sanctuary with A&V yesterday as it is national refugee week. Anna was on the leaflet this year! It was really good, the only drawback being nowhere shady to sit. They had lots of info on different campaigns and bands and kids' activities. We bumped into A&V's friend and her dad who turned out to be compering for the bands.
Also went to a singles' night at Birmingham Art Gallery with John on Friday. We sort of lost track of time and didn't end up talking to anyone. Went to Ramshackle afterwards which was rather boring. If it wasn't for mod nights I'd give up on going out dancing altogether. Everywhere's mediocre and full of teenagers.
Oh no I'm moaning again. On a more positive note, I got the complete Mr Men set (minus Mr Small) and The Dark Crystal on video from my school's Summer Fayre, so we'll probably watch that later. June 06 Will SelfRobert turned up. Nothing dramatic. Just said he was ill and asleep. We went to his mum and dad's farm last week (half term) where instead of relaxing, Robert's dad and sister gave him a hard time and stressed him out. Just what you want in your week off.
Went to see Will Self at Waterstones last night with Robert. He read from his new book (The Book of Dave) which I thought sounded good and Robert thought sounded awful. I've never read any Will Self but I might now, so it worked.
Also went to see X-Men III on Saturday. It was good but rather miserable. I hope they do another one. I thought there would be more of Angel in it, but he only had a couple of scenes looking brooding. He was in Six Feet Under and in one of those High School modern Shakespeare films.
I'm currently thoroughly enjoying watching old episodes of Roswell on the sci-fi channel. I managed to catch it just where I stopped watching about four years ago. It's good for spotting actors from other series. The Claire from Lost was in it, and the love interest from Miss Match (rubbish but addictive Alicia Silverstone sitcom) was in it. Don't I watch a lot of rubbish telly?
