I had hoped to pop in to Rabbit Girl’s thing briefly this afternoon, however after a morning of kitchen disasters (we ate mushroom soup rather than pate) and an afternoon of much the same I have to say that I wasn’t really up for it. My mood is all over the place at the moment, … Read More

Some days I just need to write. Somedays what comes out is unutterable tripe. But I do like listening to Badly Drawn Boy as I write. I suggest you go and check out his lyrics instead.

I know that I’m going round in circles over this one and that the people I love and who love me are trying their hardest to help me. I’m sorry that I keep moaning so much about such a little problem when there are really much more things that could have gone wrong. Moaning every … Read More

I’m pretty up and down today. Still haven’t heard from my driving instructor, I was going to ask her if she’d keep teaching me provided I got some practice in other than with her.

Cool. We been ninja’d. Watering can goodness!

Of course this included being told that the reason I was losing my l33t ninja skillz was because I’m wearing a pirate costume far, far, far too often. It’s sapping my powers!

I met a great many people yesterday who I managed to miss by inches during my time at Lancaster, though the part of the dinner last night where Gerbil Rob was … Read More
