6:04 pm - I walked...
My weekend? Fucking excellent. We had some scary times on Friday when someone gave [info]voofy a roofy. I ranted at [info]merlinc during the night, we wore shrek ears[0] and got cat baskets. We made and ate fudge on Saturday, we also went to the hippy shop. We watched DVDs and were joined by [info]squiddity during the night. On sunday we painted beer glasses, I had a little bit of a munt, I shaved [info]drreagan's head and we were joined by [info]lusciousa, [info]wintrmute and [info]squiddity (again). [0]Shrek ears removed Sunday night.

After a good sleep last night, I went to meet [info]squiddity for lunch, thinking fresh air and a walk would help the brokeness. I walked, from here to there but he had forgotten about me so I went for a walk and then sat on a wall and read my book. He discovered me on the wall and we went for a walk and had a chat but he had to go back to work. We'll try again tomorrow before I go to clean [info]voofy and [info]drreagan's house.

I decided since being in the area(ish) I'd go and see [info]avalon_bliss' new place. I walked, and met them coming out of the door on the way to the hospital because Jude had cracked his cast. None of us had any money, including Jude which is fair enough; he is only 4 I can't expect him to pay for me. So we walked, to St Pancras hospital, but they had no A&E; or fracture place. So we walked, to UCH where they fixed him and gave him a ballon.

Jude talks with an American accent because he watches too much TV. My niece also picks up TV accents, but she likes to watche spanish TV?! "Abre abre!" Time in there made me Thank God I'm not a chilren's nurse.

Still not having money or a travelcard I walked, to the manly shop and got silicone sealant for my shower. Then I walked, home. All in all approx 4 hours walking today. I'm a little bit tired, but no longer broken or shakey. I do need to eat at some point though. Which would mean walking, to the shop.

I do seem to be obssessed by my own mortality today.

Bits what Robin remembered that I didn't.

Rather sad now I can't holiday with people. It will make my Mother want to come.

current mood: calm

Well [info]voofy and [info]squiddity are sleeping, myself, [info]merlinc and [info]drreagan are still going strong.
The fudge was really nice, and now there are squirrels. (AKA squiblings). There was a fox, and some cats too! Thankfully no pigeons.

current mood: cheerful

4:46 pm - The difficulties of making fudge
2 hours ago I popped out to get lots of sugar, vanilla essence and weighing scales. I ended up getting skirts and tops and books as well! Trying to find vanilla essence proved very tricky. Sainsbury's had none, and looked at me like a mad woman who had made it up on the spot. I had to seek out strange delicatessants on Plender street. Both of them had none, again thought I was mad. One asked me if it was a Jewish thing? (Do I look Jewish?) I ended up getting vanilla powder, I hope it works the same.
The whole world's gone mad.
Now? Time to make fudge!

HELP HELP HELP

MY SHOWER WON'T SWITCH OFF!

12:47: I went down to the neighbours in my towel, didn't take my keys and therefore locked myself out. Her dog was sniffing at my crotch, we had to put up a ladder and came through the window, (in my towel) she managed to switch it off again. Now I'm scared to ever try and shower again.

Sometimes it's hard to stand next to a pile of shit without running around trying to find out where it came from and who's to blame for it being there.

Meanwhile, the shit just sits there, no excuses, no explaination. "I'm shit, here I am, deal with me."

current mood: flattered

Can someone explain to me why companies put lids on so fucking tight? I cannot open water bottles, I cannot unscrew milk tops, vitamin bottles, mascaras, deodorants, cleaning things.
Is it me?
Am I that weak?

2:24 am - Love and all that
So much for this post (which made me nauseous)...The quote below fills me with the kind of relationshipy-happy-crap you lot went on about. It's not a Hollywood movie, it's real.

"I'd had the wit to book a quiet table, so we settled to a good meal and talked about Berlioz, and about our writing problems, and over coffee I told Victoria that she looked beautiful, which she did, and how happy she made me, which she does. She thought about this, and then asked me what I was up to, what was the matter, what had I done?"

Poll:

Where shall I go on holiday?
Bear in mind I am a single white female not wishing to be raped/muredered/sold, but that I am also a well-travelled and relatively competent person.
Don't say anywhere in Europe, really, I'm sick of Europe.

4:44 pm - Come here and paint lazy people.
So much for a tiny useless woman - I JUST MANAGED TO LAY DOWN A NEW KITCHEN FLOOR - BY MYSELF! RAR!
However, there is still a cupboard to be assembled and a bathroom to paint.
Are you Bored? Sitting at home with nothing to do? Then...
Come here and do DIY, then get drunk with me.

11:49 pm - Oh so broken.
Whaa?
I never normally do things like this, and I don't know how it even happened, somebody explain the fact to me that I am alive. Of my 90 hours alive from Friday, the last 86 have been awake. I finally left the gerbil house (which also has snails) at approx. 11:30pm Monday.
I vomitted up my chocolate 'nurishment' but then ate the first meal for days and days - pasta made by [info]merlinc (Thanks again).
And now, I lie in bed, so sleep-deprived I can see strange patterns and stuff. I stopped doing actual naughty things quite a while ago, and came down mostly yesterday. This is just feeling like the walking dead, but in a wierdly good way.
Personal and group apologies to [info]avalon_bliss who got left by the wayside in Croydon in all this mess.
She really should move to north London or something(!)
It isn't Monday, it's just a second Sunday. Oh, dear, soon it will be Tuesday and I will have to go to Luton.

Why can I not sleep?

Why can I not blink/type/see?

current mood: broken and awake

7:03 pm - Munt, continued...
We made a gerbil maze. In the bath. Although I still maintain they look more like squirrels. [info]drreagan will post pictures later.

6:28 am - Munt
I seem to be munted - still. First p*** friday night, last one Monday, now watching Labyrnth with my two new friends [info]drreagan and [info]voofy. (But really we're just waiting for the park to open).
Sleep, and food, are second place to fun in the life of munters.
Yay for [info]dathedi, [info]thamshere, [info]andyravensable and [info]merlinc's collective house warming. 'Twas most excellent.
Good to meet [info]inferis, [info]bootpunk and [info]maddiekat also.

4:13 pm - ANGER IS MY FRIEND
A very long, very angry rant )

On a happy note, I got lots of food at Sainsbury's and laughed a lot today. I laughed at the other students. Student A: "I like you, you're really spunky!" "Wow." I said, "I like you too, shall we have a big fucking party?" To this she sort of laughed and raised her eyebrows, as if I'd told a really cool joke that she didn't really get but hoped to one day, if she could ever be as cool as me.

current mood: angry and amused
