Oooh, fancy new SG layout... dunno if I like it yet, it sure is pretty and the conversion of the diary to a blog format is quite nice, but it does seem a little more cluttered to my Google loving eyes.... we'll see....
This is just an "I'm bored at work" update. I had a Barbeque party on Sunday, lots of meat and vegetarian food...

Placenta certainly needs pepper. Maybe some 'erbs.
Your profile picture scares me.

Yep.....my pic changed, representing the fact that I've got 6 months left of Phd and really should be thinking solely about the waspys. Mmmm, lovely wasps.

Wow, like, you know, I never thought of them like that, like an omnipresent guardian, but not so much with the guarding. I find your ideas intriguing. Do you have a newsletter I could subscribe to?
abarat:
Hahahaha. I just noticed your face on the bee pic! I want to learn how to impose my face onto a picture!!!!! I wouldn't mind looking like Dita VonTeese from the neck down!!!! 
Noooooooooooo! My Leeds contact and generally groovy person Wendy_K is no longer on SG. How the hell am I supposed to know what's going on in the Shire without resorting to the Evening Post?
Crappola!
To be fair though, it sounded like she had a great boyfriend and a cool kid, so SG is hardly up on the priority list. Good luck to you and...

Well, not so much the queen, as a homeless guy dressed up to look like the Duke of Edinburgh. He just wandered in, said some vaguley rascist comments, ask for 10p for a cup of tea and wandered off again.
On any other day, that would seem kind of... strange.

Hmmm....Captain Edd, you have a meat sword.

whoa thats so rad
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...

You've gotta love those local pub's Disco nights...
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

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!!!
I liked how you used manning the cannon and sailing at high mast. Is that a sexual reference? Oh my!
