Had such a fun weekend - Friday night went out and saw Pivot at Spectrum which is only 15 minutes walk from andrew's new place. They were really really good, and I quite liked the support band as well ( Read more... )

Argh. I feel so sick again - am covered in tissues and my head is all clogged and horrible and my nose, apart from being redder than rudolf's, is throbbing mightily. This isn't fair - I was sick less than a month ago! And I just started a new job and can't take time off. Am dosed up to the eyeballs with sudafed and panadol and more vicks vapordrops ( Read more... )

The blue mountains were really nice - it didn't snow though, but it was lovely and cold and fresh and crisp. And the novelty of coldness was nice - I wore my massive purple marshmallow and everything was nice and frosty ( Read more... )

TV week is fantastic. It's so full on and frantic because everything has to be done within a couple of hours and there's loads of scope for things to go wrong (networks are funny places it seems, where they just decide to cancel shows and delay shows randomly without thinking how it's going to affect the poor tv guide). Still, It's really busy and ( Read more... )

still haven't taken maya on board. I got side-tracked by the pink book on my shelf and decided to read more of oscar wilde - it has been so much fun! He's so insightful and cutting about society. And delightfully camp - that whole era seemed so indulgent and they seemed to be going to gorgeous parties and calling on people and having tea and ( Read more... )

I quite enjoyed it but maybe this is because I think tom hanks is the best actor EVER (yes I am deluded) and because I never thought it was a particularly good book in the first place. It was INTERESTING, and likewise the movie was interesting, and suspensful (well as ( Read more... )

I didn't get the tv soap job. Boooo ( Read more... )

Andrew and I watched the 40yearold virgin the other night. It was kinda funny but I didn't like the overtly christian overtones (ie: he had trouble having sex for 40 years, how come when he's married he suddenly has no problems at all with having sex?). As well as the very obvious metaphor of all his collectable toys, especially where he screams " ( Read more... )

The world seems to have gone Snow Patrol crazy. It's funny because I did two years ago, and Snow Patrol reminds me of Ben in Strasbourg, and Rhiannon and showers in the dining room while others are having breakfast, and Margot and Tuttlingen and sangria out of a tetra pak and melted margarine with Fruhstuckkuchen at a music festival!! :) I liked ( Read more... )
