the puzzle piece behind the couch

something is wrong with our work servers. it means i cannot reply to comments by mail, and i can't open new windows. i doubt it's the worm, but who knows...

the female circumcision programme was highly distressing. it actually showed two young girls being 'circumcised' (which is a dumb term because everyone will thing of male circumcision which is usually done on little babies who cannot remember it and very rarely causes complications) and they were screaming and screaming. highly worrying. i must reseach further.

bugger, maybe we do have this worm. i cannot cut & paste either. argh, will have to try to write html! oh the ordeal! ah fuckit, i can't copy and paste the questions i was going to answer. *kicks computer*

anyway, Jacqui - yes i'd love to see photos. Chris - yes i like your hair long, it looks cute. D - hahahhaha your radio sucks ass and mine rules (and i am highly jealous of your Buffy thing).

going to sulk now.

Happy Birthday gnimmel!

you are the best (and also might i add the foxiest) Gandalf!

1) Have you ever fallen in love? If so, what happened?
i think yes. i pined for a long time as she didn't feel the same. but am mostly over it now.

2) What are the things I do that you "aspire to but [are] too damn lazy to sort out" as you said in a post a little while ago?
becoming more educated, taking an active role in things you believe in, going to the gym, exploring your artistic side, and more probably.

3) Animal testing for life-saving medicines: absolute no, or justifiable where no alternative exists?
oh pants. probably veering towards no. test it on tissue or test it on old people. (oooh controversial.) or ooh, on willing volunteers?

4) Favourite form of alcohol?
varies. the purple cocktail i made at the TTT party was damn nice. or springboks (baileys and mint liqueur) or multiple screamign orgasms... i like most alcohol. except gin.

5) What age do you like children best at?
all ages! i really like when babies are teeny. or otherwise when they're maybe 4 or 5 and everything is really exciting.

from randomchris

1) Do you have a "type" or several "types" of people that you're attracted to? If so, what are they?
shamefully i'm often attracted to pathetic people that i want to try to fix. but otherwise anyone who is cute and smiley and shows interest in me.

2) What's your favourite animal?
pangolin

3) What are you scared of?
moths, crickets and constant excruciating pain. oh, and i think suffocation/drowning.
and zombie movies! but in that 'man this is cool and jumpy 'way.

4) What's your favourite experience from LARPing?
hmmm. tricky cos i've had so many fun experiences and met so many cool people. probably meeting koozwaa cos he's damn snazzy.

5) Tell us a joke.
i can only remember one at a time. right now it's:

Where does Kylie get her kebabs?
Jason's Doner Van.

HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH

hey novanumbernine! my book came today! i will start reading it as soon as i finish my current book. (which should be tonight.) hoorah!

i feel highly productive. i went to the gym and now my arms feel floppy. got a form to rejoin, hopefully for cheap with the council's corporate membership thing. ooh i bought some really nice facial wipes too. wow - soon i will be fitter AND cleaner!

just ordered niceandfluffy's housewarming present. (a PS2 dance mat with Britney game - ok there were slightly selfish reasons for this - i want to play it two player when i visit her with olinima this weekend. it had better come in time. although i should point out she did seem very keen to get it, so it's not entirely selfish you know!)

sadly i have to relinquish the computer now, but i will try to answer Elly's and Catriona's questions tomorrow. hmmm, and i must fill in an application for a new job.

ooooooh and i should phone Robert and see if he wants to go for lunch at the vegan all you can eat chinese buffet in Soho on sept 12th as, tickets permitting, i am going to see Heather Nova with fluffymark.


OOOOH! and i got a letter from Dahiana! well, actually it was her Mum cos she's only 5 and can't write yet. but ahhhhh! cuteness.

i am so happy! eeeee. exercise is GOOD.
