Good day!
I had the most ridiculous badminton fixture last night. All three of my matches went to three sets, which meant I was on court (continuously) for a grand total of 150 minutes.
Unfortunately I was lumbered with slightly aged playing partners in each match, so I had a lot of work to do also!
In the third match, we were taking on this...

Merry x-mas and a good new year (all in forward, yeah yeah) to you too, thanks for it! Don't panic about your "scribblings", I'm happy to read it WHEN you have some . Like with my pics, those lines come and go in their own schedule, so don't press on it.
Have a great time and take care!

WOW I'd forgotten abou the amazing Garth Meranghis Dark place til you mentioned it. I really need to get that is it on DVD yet if not it should be! Im just watching the second series of peep show now its ace!
A week of bombastic apathy this week. If that's possible.
I noticed that I could crosses by loads of these things, so I thought I'd just prove it:
(X) I've Never Been Drunk - Ha! George Best! Ha!
(X) I've Never Smoked Pot - Stick to cannabis
( ) I've Never Kissed A Member Of The Opposite Sex - Few years back now
(X) I've...

I envy you, you did the sensible thing. I wish I didn't live with these arseholes.
And I applaud you, that is a LOT of crosses, and makes you far more interesting than everyone else.

I'm sorry Lynn but technically your life isn't worth insuring.
Hail,
My old man rant this week is one that has troubled me for a couple of years now: scarves. A scarf worn in January, in tandem with a big coat is all well and good. But a scarf worn at the end of October/beginning of November, in tandem with a T-shirt (!) is just plain wrong. There comes a point where a scarf ceases...

I don't find him loathesome. I think he should cheer up a bit and be nice to people more but generally I'm in love with him and think that I shall probably have his children some day.
ahem.

Rant for the week: people giving out fliers at University! There's hundreds of them every week, and as the term goes on I go to more and more extreme measures to avoid them. (Jumping over fences etc...)
In the first week of term I can suffer them:
Q- "Like to enter a prize draw to win <something rubbish>?"
A- "No, Thanks"
By week 5 it's...

Other things this woman has said in the past lead me to the impression she had invisibility confused with something that isn't invisibility. Holographic Imaging or something of the like seems possible.
Dreadful girl.

I would have stuck with the dead too-having a bride who can pop out her own eyeballs and play the piano 'free handed' has got to make up for the fact she is dead-and besides,the blue skin is attractive Havent seen the Val Kilmer film yet,but Im sure I will-my friend has a huge crush on him,so I will be dragged to see it soon I expect.

So without further ado, here are 20 amusing fact-based anecdotes about me:

ooh, haven't read Gormenghast yet, it's on my Christmas list... on a bit of a non-fiction kick at the mo, reading The Golden Bough, 19th century exploration of magic and religion. excellent fare for a 20th century atheist almost as much fun as the Blind Watchmaker

Cordial greetings,
I've been using a new word this week: coruscating, meaning bright and dazzling. It's a word to conjure with!
I also had the revelation earlier this week that my natural singing voice makes me sound like a geordie. Odd certainly, given that I'm southern born and bred, but I was able to lead...

I've seen my parents once a month at the absolute most ever since they sent me to boarding school when I was 13, and this weekend was the first time I've seen them since early august. They're very used to not seeing me; its a bit late now to worry about that!
If she thought this was a phase that would never actually happen, I don't think she'd be so annoyed. And much as I hate the fact, she only ever said she was worried about not seeing her grandchildren. Not her daughter.
I know my mother loves me, but its in a very clumsy, completely sporadic way.
Once she makes the time for me and my brother that she makes for her cats or her friends or her job, THEN she can comment on what I do with my life
Aaah, short films are most definitely the way forward. Most long films aren't good enough to hold my attention, and start to lose it way before the end. With the exception of LoTR. I really do want to see the corpse bride, but I'm tempted to wait until we get it in where I work, so I can watch it for free

Mythomania? as in obsession with telling stories? particularly those involving men with beards and dragons? fabulous.
Mary Bennet? you strange creature, you... always wanted her to marry Mr Collins though.
yes indeed as in P&P, although I was actually named after a fictitious Victorian whore from a Sherlock Holmes story... thanks Mum. gold star if you can name her

Good morrow, pilgrims!
Spurning my boring Anthropology reading, I have instead been writing! I let myself get carried away somewhat with the language of the character Gadrion. I had to stop it from going too Jane Austen!
S'Fun though! It's supplied below for any that might be interested.

Thanks for the welcome!
about the picture:
I was just goofing around in the plane and didn't even know anyone took the picture. But it turned out really good and now I use it wherever I can. Unfortunately they wont let me have it on the drivers licence

The cold, chilling wind. A leaden sky. The featureless, spiky architecture. A sea of plague ridden wastrels, huddling along in small groups whilst coughing their disease into the air around. Red rimmed eyes stare sullenly out, concealed as they are beneath dark hoods...
Yes, I'm back at University! A most joyous occasion...
Tomorrow is my first early start. It takes 75 minutes to get from...

ooh, badminton!
I play badminton. And by that I mean I play the game that has no specific rules and consists entirley of trying to get a volley going with whoever is on the other side of the net (usually a grandparent)

I admitted defeat today and begun to look out some more Autumnal and, dare I say Wintry, clothing. As I look out my window, the yellows and browns are just beginning to steal precedence from the green. Always an interesting time of year, and one that calls for some Keats...

So, just a few short days before the return to the drudgery of University life. Oh, how gratifying! My Summer is over in the blink of an eye once again! And what's more, I spent every minute of it in England. Not what I wished for, and not something I intend to repeat.

Well "Gravestone" was written in a really 'life-loving' situation, and the last days have been again just like that... but I won't clusterbomb your journal with my shits
In my opinion german lyrics are... well wether it turns out to sound like "Rammstein" like (or at least your audience automatically will put you in one line with them) or it sounds like kind of wellfare-band-lyrics.
Even if our new drummer asked if we could do a german song my answer will be "no", and as long as I am the only one writing and caring for lyrical mayhem it will stay this way.
And now I need some time to feed my brains with your new part of story
