Well my sore throat has been diagnosed as being on the road to recovery and my eye-thing was a burst blood vessel likely caused by stress or a viscious cough. So it's all good I guess, the doc did scare the hypochondriac in me when she said "Mmm you haven't got any glands...." And she took my blood pressure and told me it wasn't that high. Although ( Read more... )

Just about got rid of the sore throat I've had for weeks and now I appear to have some sort of burst blood vessel in my eye. No idea if it is serious but if it looks different tomorrow then it's off to the doctors. Doesn't appear to affect my vision but there is a strange red blob next to my iris.  It would be nice to be fully fit before my classes ( Read more... )

Heh, a guy I quoted quite extensively in my essay last week was on the Colbert Report last night and it was amusing to say the least. I wish I could do an essay on terrorist chimps ( Read more... )

Just watched V for Vendetta which I had no idea would be so topical with Fireworks night tomorrow and it's got my head in a spin. Found it slightly confusing (moreso beacuse I was thinking of plot twists in my head which never occured and took a few metaphors literally!) But despite coming to an understanding of sorts as the final scenes played out ( Read more... )

Just got back from Badly Drawn Boy, great gig although we got stuck in front of a bunch of Stokies at one point- it seems they won at the football today. V. glad the clocks go back tonight- as usual I am staying up for the extra hour so it doesn't really make a difference but at least my hair will dry before I go to bed ( Read more... )

Never thought I'd say this but I've just heard, 'It's All Coming Back To Me Now', and Meatloaf has nothing on Celine. (She also had one of the best motorcycle-crashing-through-mansion music videos ever.) However, nowt much can beat the whole rock-operatastic 12minutes of I'll Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)
