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 [...]
Since it’s looking more and more unlikely that I’m gonna be able to get the time off that I want from work at Christmas I said to Tim that maybe he shouldn’t come.
It’s gonna cost him like £700 just to get here at Christmas and then on top of that there’ll be traveling expenses [...]
Next March I’m going to Paris for a week with Mum and maybe Ross and Gill. It’s the same place we went to in the Spring of ‘05. I can’t wait as the place is really picturesque but also I can get in some photos of Paris which is my second favourite city in the [...]
On Saturday I woke up pretty early (9.30 is early for a Saturday) and went downstairs and Tim goes “oh good you’re up, I was just coming to wake you. We’re going to the cabin.” I was like “Oh, ok”.
In reality I was pretty excited to go, it was just very sudden since the day [...]
Tim came home with some flowers for me the other day, which was a really sweet thing to do, so I decided to take some photos of them.
He introduced me to the world of Sid Meier’s Civilization Revolution the other day. It’s a turn based strategy game so I didn’t think I’d like it but [...]
I’m now exactly half way through my holiday. It seems crazy to think I’ve been here six weeks already but then it also seems crazy that it’s only been six weeks.
The other day I was trying to remember what we did to write an e-mail home. I was trying to remember what we did on [...]
Since Tim was away I invited the guys over last night for some games and then a sleepover. I didn’t actually think anyone apart from Jason was gonna turn up since nobody else confirmed until yesterday.
In the end it was me, Jason, Alex, Soco and Woody. It was a load of fun. Soco brought two [...]
Tim’s off in Chicago just now so I’m all alone in the house. It’s eerily quiet. I’ve taken the downtime to finish my book, Twisted, which was really good. I hope Jeffery Deaver releases another short story compilation soon.
I watched all of Dexter season one which I really enjoyed. That show is really well written [...]
It was my birthday on Saturday (no longer a teenager!) so it’s been a busy weekend. On Friday after Tim got home from Spokane we watched Sex and the City which I really enjoyed.
Saturday morning I was awoken to breakfast in bed, something I’d never had before. Pancakes, hash browns and a bowl of fruit [...]
I took a walk round the corner to Haller Lake today. I’ve known it’s there for a while but never been bothered to go. It was nice today so I figured, why not?
To get there you go to the bottom of the street, but that was a private road so I didn’t think there was [...]
