25 Things Meme

Very tired after my first week at work but this is the first opportunity I've had to really check my emails etc, so thought I may as  well do this having been tagged by sploogal .
I tag anyone who wants to do this.


  1. For some reason today is the day my past came visiting. Been in contact with three people I haven't seen in over a year and a half.

  1. Sometimes ( Read more... )

OMG, semi-colons are my favourite punctuation marks too! Second favourite as you will have guessed are commas, and they're then followed by italicised exclamation points!

13. I love money matters. Suze Orman is my lesbian goddess. I dream of one day lying on piles of well earned and invested money like Smaug and have it become embedded in my underbelly.

14. Damn well love abusing the postage system.

15. Hermit in a garden actually sounds like a good plan.

19. I'm glad you're not going to be holding my cat-hoarding tendencies against me then. Isn't it like, 130 kittens a day? Wonder if I can palm another kitten off to Shonni's family. Looks like Gulliver and Mowgli are about to get some more siblings unfortunately.

23. If I were good with science, I'd want to work somewhere in the field of palaeontology or genetics. While I am a dork though, I don't have mental faculties particularly geared towards math or science though.

25. Good luck with that, let me know how it goes.

Also, are you free any time this week? During the week?

19. I don't hold your cat hoarding against you at all. I love coming to visit kittens! And I would adopt more, if only my current cats weren't so terrorial and wouldn't probably traumatise the poor thing.
Told you that my vet sometimes takes them though? Because of the area we live in they don't get so many abandoned so they often have more room than other places.

23. If I were good at science I would be a botanist, my comment was more about maths as I am actually good at science :)
Seriously, if I hadn't done Arts at uni I would have been doing biology with a major in botany.

Well, I finish work around 6 and am then usuallyy home by 7/7.30; so free after those times (except for Wednesday).

OMG, OMG, I found a new quotation mark we need to give love to.
It's an irony mark. It's also from a series of various other niche punctuation marks such as doubt points, certitude points, acclimation points, authority points, indignation points (really like those ones, might have to re-arrange the ranking of my favourite punctuations), and love points.

Also, there are now three day old kittens at the stables, looks like three calicos and an attractive tabby and white who we suspect is male.

Oh you poor hard-working girl working so late!

Also yes, in the first part I should have said "punctuation mark" instead of "quotation mark". It's been a long day.

I agree, books are precious and they haven't always been available for everyone (and they still aren't). We are actually privilidged to both have books and the knowledge to read them.

Plus the freedom to not read the trashy ones if we don't want :D

I wonder why precisely you are working with the courts, that I do...

And I hear you with the pressure to get first class honours. My theory however is that they'll be hard pressed to find a bigger pair of nerds trying for it though, so I think we both stand a pretty good chance ^^ (Have you read "Life of Pi" or "The Count of Monte Cristo" yet? I'm working on finding a place in my case for both of them).

So, who are the three people who you met up with? Having not met up with anyone who I'm not directly related to (aside from Kyle) in more than two months, I envy you this...

The money, Siobhan, the money.

Haven't read either, but really want to read "The Life of Pi". Remind me to lend you the Hunchback of Notre Dame when you get back - the novel is all kinds of tragic wonderfulness. Not like the weird disney version.

The threee people: a guy I used to go to uni with (we did Asian studies togehter), a girl I used to work with before I went away and a guy I used to fence with. I wouldn't gwt excited though, they were only emails.

2. So you got the job then? Well done! How's it all going? Interesting, or painstakingly dull?

14. I have been carrying around 2 postcards for you in my bag for over a week now. I'll try and remember to post them this arvo.

15. Seconded.

20. Also seconded.

23. I'll take you up in my spaceship when I get one and you can write about our adventures!
