It has been a very long weekend and I'm meant to be going out again in an hour. Its going to hurt

Friday night went up to London Town to see the Pipettes support another of my friends bands, the Brakes. It was a bit of a love in with people playing in both bands and the Pipettes doing some backing vocals for one Brakes...

My niece is the cutest person in the world.

Other peoples kids can piss off but she can stay.

How she gets from playing to random screaming fit in one breath is beyond me though.

Things I do not do.

Planning
Preperation
Organisation
Knowing the date

I have been all excited about going to see Laura Veirs tonight and I was just starting to get ready when I checked the ticket and realised that today wasn't Wednesday.

So its tomorrow, thats good, I can watch West Wing tonight.

Its the second time I've got the date of a show wrong...

I have 2 major (well majorish) problems.

1) Really great weekends make me hate going back to work.

2) Next weekend could be every bit as good as this one.

Next Monday is going to be depressing.

Oh, well, I'm off to play with my new camera

Get in the hole!!!! He he.

So its my birthday, guess I better get drunk which is obvioulsy completely differant from the last 2 days.

Oh no, it isn't is it?

Friday was brilliant. I'm glad I could give my friend a great send off although it did remind me of all the things I am going to miss about him. (and alll the things...

Looking after my 3 yo niece is hard work, I'm sure I never had that much energy.

But she makes me watch the Simpsons so shes not all bad.

In fact she's the cutes thing in the world but don't let her know I said that.

Fortunately her Mum will be here soon and the house can return to its usual state of slumber.

I hate my job.
I hate all jobs.
I want to give up work now.

The only way I can get out of worki even temporarily is to save up properly and seriously for a few months. The problem with that is that work makes me spend money to stop myself going completely crazy.

Going to Barcelona doesn't help me save up either.

I'm going...

I've dot a dold

I don't think sitting in a small room where everybody but me was smoking helped.

Was a good night, we ended up comparing feet. I'm still not sure why.

A friend of mine can use her toes like fingers. Very odd.

Spent yesterday sat in the sun watching cricket. It is surely the most relaxing way to spend time ever invented.

The best bit about it is when people ask you what you've been up to you can say 'i went to the cricket' instead of saying 'i've just been sat in the sun all weekend' even though they are essentially the same activity. Makes you...
