I had three pints of weak beer this afternoon, then fell asleep at six o'clock. By nine I had a headache. I can't drink without feeling ill anymore. I might give up alcohol.
psmith:
weak beer will do that do you.
girlblue:
it's bad for you and full of calories anyway. smile

I had a day of hedonism yesterday. A half litre of Ben & Jerry's New York Super Fudge Chunk ice cream, two bagels with humus, two with cheese, some Polish fudge, lots of beer and a vegetable biriani. So much for the diet, but there's always tomorrow I suppose.

Music of late has been Blondie's Parallel Lines album.

My life is boring. I go to...

I posted on the topic of cars interests on the car group page. I have a project car that i left at my parents house in LA, a series 1 XJ6. So far that has been my only real project. I'm a bit of a Rover nut, nearly bought an SD1 instead (probably not a good idea, esp in this country where only 1k SD1s were sold before they left the market), also a fan of Morris, Jowett, and british fords.

Did Triumph use Stromberg carburettors or SU?

I'm feeling slightly patriotic today. I wonder why?
Maybe it's because I'm enjoying life a bit more.

Fact of the day:

A country which was a former British colony is more likely to be a functioning democracy today than one which was never under British rule.
Imperialism wasn't all bad.

It's because I'm coming to the UK, isn't it? smile

I bought a pair of boots and a pair of sandals (!) from the sale at work today. I am happy.

Song for the day has been Not So Manic Now by Dubstar.

I'm actually enjoying my job. I've never had a job I enjoy before. I work with people I like, I even like the customers, and of course the manager love

Progress report on the new year's resolutions:

I'm drinking more,
Eating a little less,
Going out about the same,
and reading more.

It's progress...

Not been on much of late as I've been working like a bastard. Not that I don't enjoy it.

Still skint, still enamoured with my boss (the delectable Louise), still waiting to sort my car insurance out.

Lose 30lbs
Drink Less
Go out more

any nice houses for rent in chorlton to a non-student? i'm looking to branch out sometime in the not-too-distant future...
cellardoor:
At the moment i'm in Prestwich, not too bad coz the transport links are good, I work in the city centre so I need an area with easy access to town. I thought maybe chorlton because of the high student rate and therefore less chance of gettin killed for wearing baggy pants...

Started working at the Dr Martens shop yesterday. I was put to work in the stock room, under the supervision of Jenny love Jenny is 23 and is lovely but I have no chance, she's a lesbian. Anyway, I was in the stock room today and it's cool, all very chilled out & relaxed. I just hope they keep me on after January.

My new car...

I heve done nothing all day. Not quite true - I ate a litre of ice cream. Now I feel guilty.I intend to start running again over the Christmas break, I expect I'll find an excuse not to though.

Todays music: Girl, Interrupted soundtrack. Brilliant stuff.

The fuck off idea is a good one... it wasn't anyone in particular, I'm just fed up of getting dirty looks everytime I venture into the open world.

Oh well...

I've been listening to Simon & Garfunkel a lot lately. My initial thoughts are that they were far superior to anything else of the time, including The Beatles & the Rolling Stones.

Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain...

I think I agree with you - I mean the Beatles were on their own, but I have more passion for S+G

Simon and Garfunkel remind me of turntables and scratchy, poppity records. My parents had quite a record collection and Simon and Garfunkel is mostly what I would listen to. That and The Hobbit LP. God I used to listen to that like crazy. Just crown me Queen Geek.

It's 11:53PM and I have just finished the last of this terms essays. My eyes hurt, my head hurts, I'm mentally exhausted but I can't sleep because I've been swallowing caffeine tablets all evening to keep me awake. My feet are cold too. I feel like shit but relieved and happy. blackeyed smile surreal

oh yesssss! i love tank girl. in fact, i dressed as tank girl this past hallowe'en. i had to hand candy out to the rugrats in the mall, and they were all like, who are you? and i was all like, you'd have no idea. their parents liked it though ~ especially the skeevy old guys who appreciated my thin little half-shirt. ewwww.

anyway, i'm glad you got the essays done ~ and i, like cherry, am also glad that i'm no longer in school! blargh, i hated that shit. take a warm shower and read a book in bed, that always puts me to sleep.

*mwah*
