This week is my first with my slightly altered schedule and I am absolutely foxed. Its so wierd knowing that I have to work in a couple of different locations on a couple of different days. Its a simple change but a tricky one for me to adjust to.

Also I feel kind of dirty for watching both underworld movies.

Over the past few weeks my work schedule has change a little so I now work about 1 hour less a week but I do al the work in 5 days instead of 6 which means this coming Saturday is theoretically my last regular one. This means a two day weekend for the first time in over ten years which is kind of groovy. I don't know what I am going to do with ( Read more... )

I am not sure exactly why but at the start of last year I decided to write down all the books I read during 2008. I was kind of surprised as it was quite a few less than I expected. I had this image of me being all scholarly and reading 50 books a year and being able to spell and things. But anyway, more or less in order I read ( Read more... )

Unskippable DVD menus, Van drivers who leave their gullwing back door open and my head height and overly greasy pizzas are not cool by any stretch of the imagination.

I have walked up to a door or a window, waited patiently for it to open and realised it wasnt automatic. Please tell me im not the only one to have done this ( Read more... )

For the longest time I haven't really been playing games but a combination of various indie titles and truly glowing reviews of of xbox live from all and sundry encouraged me to check it out. So far I am so impressed I am annoyed about it, mainly because of the Microsoft connection but I have to admit they have done pretty much everything right ( Read more... )

One quick point is that I really respect about Michael Moore is his eye for a good story. "Roger and Me", "Bowling for columbine" and "Farenheight 9/11" are all very good topics for movies. That being said, Michael Moore is a fucking terrible filmaker maker. I just spent the last couple of hours struggling through the train wreck that is his 9/11 ( Read more... )

Friday I did indeed go to a wrestling match. I went into it expecting it to be a little creepy and wierd and certainly didn't expect to enjoy it. I couldn't have been more wrong. It was really REALLY good fun. It was a fairly large hall seating perhaps a couple of thousand people with a ring in the center. There were about 6 or 7 matches averaging ( Read more... )

I watch a lot of movies. I never really thought about it before but I started writing down what I watch and since I got back from the US its probably around 30. I have about 25 in my notebook and I know I have forgotten a few. So my project for next year is to write down all the movies I watch in 2009 for a giggle. I would guess I clock around 300 ( Read more... )

Once again, I have gone for far to long without updating. Yet again, its a case of having far too much to talk about an no brains when it comes to acctually setting down and typing it up ( Read more... )
