The correct answer to my previous post was:

The Mormons!

Or rather....go have a coffee, cos momma said talk it out. (yeah, I'm hip, I'm happening)

I watched the incredibly cheesy, "whoops there goes my moody, sophisticated art house image" you all know and love (*ahem*) SCARY MOVIE again last night.

Cheesy comedy films are my chicken soup for the soul. Normally I'd opt for...

Damn, I'm still searching for inspiration for my spanish trip report, as well as decisions on whether i am allowed to post pics from the trip containing non-SG people. I'll ask them and get back on it.

On a bum note, to bring a downer to an otherwise happy time at the moment, I found out my uncle has got cancer, the dreaded big C...

You damn dirty traiter, codename furry potato head, how did they get to you Edd, how?!? I can't believe I've lost my best operative....
abarat:
When you set up your own Eeynipo stand to sell The Precious, you should utilize the whole pirate thing. I bet it will help sales. Get a fake pirate hook hand. So you take the money in your regular hand and the good people of whatever lovely town you're infiltrating have to take the paper off your hook! Fabulous!

I ain't dead, not quite, but for the last 10 days I've been in the south of Spain helping on a field course. I'll update with more exciting details soon, all I can say is that it was pretty hardcore, very little sleep, way too much drinking, smoking and making an ass out of myself in front of my peers.

But I ain't dead ARRR!!!

They were indeed all cabin boys unable to handle being first mate. Speaking of which...go look at CaptainJonny's profile. I found it the other day, and it is hilarious. I just cant believe some people. But, to each his own...I commented on his page, and he responded by leaving a comment in my journal where he called me a fine wench to be on his ship!!!! And something about parlay. What's parlay Cap'n Edd? As it turns out all the guys at the party were friends because I am a female friend invited to the wedding of the groom, so I know all the buddies. The bride is ok I guess but I'm not as friendly with her. So, the ex was there. I love him madly. I cant stop and he broke things off with me last August. We're still good friends but that dont help me, now does it? NO!!! And I guess even if there was a guy there that I was interested in, I would feel like a shit getting numbers with Danjal there to see. Even if he didn't care, I'm not trashy. I'm very considerate actually. Oh, I'd happily be someone's wench. Sounds exciting!!! biggrin

In one week, I'll be going to Spain, totally out of the blue trip announcement smile

Someone dropped out of supervising the field trip at university, so I modestly and totally unselfishly (ahem) stepped in. Now I'll get 10 days in Spain, my main job being to drive reasonably powered cars on fast roads, while listening to music of my own choice. And I get to...

Bwahahaha

Tremble, Leeds, I'm coming back home. I've managed to convince myself that a couple of days back home visiting my mum and dad will cure all ills, magically do all my work for me and give me an erection within 45 minutes of swallowing a soft tab. Well, a spam e-mail convinced me of the latter, but going home gives me a bone, in...

It's been a long time. but I'm here to lay down the journal law and pimp my life out once more. See how my words hide the fact that I've spent hours on end moving tiny amounts of liquid from one tiny tube to the next, in the GRAND NAME OF SCIENCE!

SEE HOW CAPITAL LETTERS HIDES THE TEDIUM OF STARING BLANKLY AT THE COMPUTER...

As with all journals, this one looks like it's fading to an apathy. Right now I'm listening to "The Downward Spiral" by NIN, which is always a bit of a sign I'm slipping into old bad habits of negatitivity.

Resorting to other members style of postings is a sure sign, but Elysia journal entries are more entertaining than b3ta so it can't be wrong.

Oh God puke

No. More. Drink.

Ever.

The house party was great, I managed to create a lovable new character called Bread Baby, I have vague recollections of taunting my housemates with my dough child, if I took pictures I'll unleash them as soon as the room stops spinning...

I keep getting flashbacks of an argument about who put the cheese grater in the garden.

Bread baby looks a little limp, does non gender specific being need a little medical attention?
