I'm already on my third screwdriver, and my pillows readily await my tears.

I *hate* people. I will never understand how anyone could ever justify such horrific, wanton violence. Now, if you'll excuse me...

I am angry. No, nothing to do with bombs, we've had plenty of those in the UK. But with people who have nothing to say to me but complaints about subject lines, who keep making those same complaints, even though they've said they'll stop making those complaints and even though I've told them that I'll never change my subject line / headline style. So, minimal SG for me for a few days.

The bomb thing is confusing. I don't know what they think they're achieving. Many UK citizens were vehemently anti Iraq-war, and are anti-Israeli pro-Palestine. I guess that'll change a bit know. Oh well. A tricky situation jsut got much trickier.

I only caught a brief glmpse of this on the news at work. Didn't really dawn on me the magnitude of the whole thing.

Except till I realised my Mum is due to fly to the UK tomorrow. Hard to know what to think.

Again, apologies for the fiasco that is MSN for Mac. Talk soon.

Why does no one ever send me a bouquet?

I've always had to be the one sending them. For some reason I only ever seem to date self-absorbed women who don't pay much attention to what I actually like.

Oh, the tradgedy. I fear I shall drown in my own melodrama. Now some song lyrics:

My heart is black.
Like a thing that is black...

Heh. You sounded slightly confused. Couldn't just make the change without confirming the details, so yeah. Hope it's all sorted now.

thanks for that.

so this thing that we keep talking about doing? did you still want to do it?
ampersand:
well, now that you mention it both of the things discussed. i'm not fussy on place. anything slightly city is fine for me.

working most days this week, perhaps next weekish or weekend? let us move this conversation to a more email like approach and go from there, yes?

... meanwhile, bed is calling...

After all this time I still cannot cast aside the things I hate the most. I wish I could.

At least hate is passionate.

There is nothing worse than insipid apathy.

pixen:
Yeah, I am.

And sometimes I even believe it.

I hate those impossibly enormous ideas. The ones that just blow up and take control without permission. They become far too hard before they've even begun. But then, I am very lazy, and very rarely finish what I start.

Sounds like you had a good night out. Pictures. Yes.

Oh and also yes to being a sounding board. My work roster sucks, but I'm sure we could figure something out.

I have no useful advise, so I will say nothing. I am a hack. I very rarely finish anything I start, and the things I start are usually pretty lame.

Your project sounds interesting. I'd be curious to hear more about it.

I had to shave my head because it got so hot this week. Really, I'm not kidding. What part of Australia are you from? Because, if you're from up north and it really is hot you're just going to laugh at the English temperature. blush smile
