Leaving work
Today's my last day at work! Hurrah!
We all left early yesterday so we could go to the pub for a meal, and rather than a watch I was very unexpectedly presented with a Palm Z22! Holy hell! That was pretty cool :) I've been after a palm for years but it's always been a low-priority purchase (seeing as I have bills and food as a far higher priority ( Read more... ) -

So, if you haven't been keeping up with the news, the recent raids in Sparkhill are just a short distance from where I'm working, and I pass not too far by on the bus to and from work.

Internet access!
Finally have broadband on its way - should be getting everything delivered on Thursday - conveniently the first day after my notice expires and I'll be home to set it all up :)

My room's currently a lot of bags and boxes as I gradually sort through things. I have...
Damn, I have 6 days left in this place. All of a sudden that's very daunting. -
BBC article on Goths and Self-Harm

One thing that they've touched which I do like is in an early paragraph:
Most self-harmed before becoming a Goth, suggesting they chose the subculture because they felt their emotional distress would be understood.
Oh, and now just 7 and a half freaking hours until I finish work! 9 days until I move! -
Holy things
Someone tell me this isn't true...

Lordi are Finland's entry for the Eurovision song contest
Hell, I might actually watch it this year just for this. -
Closer...
See, this is why I find The Register such fun. Not just the article in question (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/04/07/devil_rabbit/) but the parting shot:
Whether the locals then rushed to the village green with wooden agricultural implements and burning torches before storming into the night in search of the unholy creature's creator is not ( Read more... )
