The meaning of life
I've morphed into the computer-phobics that I used to laugh at while in computer support at Uni. They were the type of people that were convinced that the lab computers hated them and that these machines could smell fear - like dogs - and would turn on them in an instant.
I think my laptop keyboard abuses my psychologically. Over 99% of the time, ( Read more... ) -
They do it in New York too!
I spent yesterday afternoon being an Accomplice and I can't think of a better way to spend Sunday. We teamed up with some interesting strangers and basically wandered around London in the sun doing a treasure hunt with actors prompting us along our merry way. I love puzzles, I love Pims and I love the Southbank/Borough area in good weather. -
All the lovers
When your shin moves more than your face, you should be a little worried, no? After Friday's aborted attempt, I got to Kylie through work on Monday and thought the most interesting part of the show would be the attempts she made to show emotions through the mask that used to be her face ( Read more... ) -

No longer visa issues
Principles of my visa:- I came into the UK as a highly skilled migrant, meaning I was young to hold the position I held and make the money I made.

Dinner, ma'am?
Taryn and Hamish invited me and Shannon around to their place for dinner. Hamish dished up and I smiled at the seafood risotto being spooned onto my plate realising that Shannon doesn't eat anything pulled from the ocean. Through the meal I happily picked mussels and prawns off his plate while our hosts politely ignored the fact that Shannon - a ( Read more... )
