Are we human or are we dancer?

Could Heroes season three be any crappier? I have actually lost all interest in that show. I’m just going through the motions with it, I’m not excited to see next weeks at all. Not like True Blood. I can’t WAIT for the finale next week, it’s gonna be the highlight of my week I predict.
I’m [...]

Trundling train

I’m on the train into town at the moment to get Ross a birthday present since it’s his birthday today. Apparently he got a DS lite for his birthday so I’ll prolly get him a game for that.

Dreaming of a white christmas

I’m off work for two consecutive days this week, the first time that’s happened since I went back to work. It’s like a little mini holiday. I went into town this afternoon to meet Chris for coffee. I went in an hour and a half early and had some lunch and a read of one [...]

American Gods

I’ve sat for the last three hours or so finishing my book. Mostly because I was bored of games and tv shows but also because it was really good.
The story wasn’t really the most action packed and it just sort of ambled along but it did it in such a charming and hilarious, at [...]

Twilight

OMFreakin’G, I just saw the latest trailer for Twilight and it looks awesome. I loved the tip to the book cover, thought that was genius. I dunno if I like the whole emo look Robert Pattinson has going on, yes he has to be pale but why is he wearing eyeliner and lipstick?
Regardless I will [...]

Back to the start

Ian Blair finally resigned from his position yesterday, three years and seven bullets after he should’ve. How he managed to hang on this long is beyond me.
I got paid today and transferred £50 across to my savings, I figure that’s a better idea than waiting to see how much I have left at the end [...]

Book Nerd

Today was my first day off in a week, so I headed into town to have coffee with Chris who I haven’t seen since I got back. We of course went to Starbucks and it was really nice seeing him, I don’t get to see him often enough.
After coffee we walked around the shops a [...]

Twilight movie update

The Twilight movie’s release date has been moved forward from December 12 to November 21. Why? Because Harry Potter just vacated that spot.
Hopefully this means there’ll be more awareness of the movie but even if it doesn’t, it still means I get it earlier than I would have.

Spin me right round

I started reading Spin by Robert Charles Wilson today. I’m about fifty pages into it and so far I’m really enjoying it. It’s kinda heavy on the science at points but I’ve so far managed to follow it.
I didn’t think I was gonna enjoy it cos the cover is really crappy looking. Guess I should [...]
