I was in the city today, running around like an idiot trying to help my sister get together all the certified copies and applications that she needed for her nursing board registration. Apparently, everything that went wrong was my fault and a lot of things did go wrong from suddenly needing a photograph for the application to her leaving the ( Read more... )

 So, the number 7 is officially my favorite number to write. I do one of those nice little cross-bars and everything.
The numeral '8' is my most hated. Nothing I do makes them look right. They're so bad, everybody at work was teasing me about it the other day. When I rule the world, I shall eliminate the need of such a symbol and life will be grand.

 It's 4.30 in the morning. I'm catching up on a weeks worth of LJ posts that I haven't seen. I am the only person awake ( Read more... )

So, every now and then, somebody in fandom like's to come late to the party and complain about the fact that Matt Smith is too young and too pretty to be the next Doctor (I will have no opinion on Matty-Boy until he actual has a chance to, god, I dunno, BE in the role ( Read more... )

This post is not going to be as corny as the title makes it sound, I promise.

@ Emily - nope, I didn't have a note. Clearly I am not important enough to contact. Or maybe its because I never replied the last few times they tried to contact me. Oh well, looking forward to your forward so I can laugh cruelly at the stupid of the Pox.

   This in no way suggests that I was a suitable party to run the store instead, so please remember this when you come in tomorrow morning to find a pile of ( Read more... )

Today I headed out to the big DFO, because my sister said she's seen a Converse store out there, and I've been dying to buy a pair of Converse for many months now (not only for the most obvious reason (geek!), but also because I had an hour long discussion with two uni friend's in my Graphic's class about how good they were and one of them told me ( Read more... )

Today was a pretty awesome day, as days go. Spent it hanging out with Emma and Emily (aka fools_game and moirasaoirse who both, incidentally, go by Em in real life, so as of this moment, I will be calling one 'Proper Em' (Emily) and the other 'Other Em' (Emma) because it's too awesome not too). And then we met up with rayliehm for dinner in the ( Read more... )
