10:07pm: Well, I'm exaggerating a bit, but I posted a Plushenko related thing on Tumblr last night and as of right now it's got 64 notes and counting, that's like the most I've ever got, LOL!
In other news, got to Centrelink on time today, for like the shortest appointment ever, like seriously, it was two minutes tops! Damn good thing it only takes 10 minutes to get there, if I'd travelled an hour for that I'd be so pissed.
Alas the day didn't all go according to plan, I came back home after Centrelink to do some laundry before heading out at just after 12 to get to the gym, where after getting on my gym pants and shirt I discovered I'd managed to leave one of my gym shoes at home! Well, obviously you can't use the equipment with no shoes, so I had to cut my losses on that front and just go for a swim instead. However, I went down to the pool at a rather busy time and had to wait for a bit for a lane to get free. Some people asked me if I wanted to share a lane, but they're kind of narrow, so I declined, I must have looked weird because I didn't have my glasses on (of course) so I couldn't really see the people in the lanes even when I squinted for all I was worth. But a lane became free and off I went. Good times.
I got home to discover the washing machine was being weird, it keeps stopping halfway through the cycle and you have to press the 'start' button to get it going, obviously I wasn't there to see it, my first load took ages way longer to finish. Hmpf, it also meant I couldn't put my second load on until much later than I wanted and then it started to rain so it's probably going to take ages for that second load to dry, hanging in the flat as it is. The first load, fortunately, did dry since I was able to rescue it from the line before the rain started to pour.
Anyway, enough about the mundanities of my life, let's try catching up on those Memes!

Scary
What’s the scariest book you’ve ever read?
Well, I was so scared just reading the prologue of the novelisation of Jaws that I couldn't read the rest of the book or get to sleep for the rest of the night. And that's all I have to say about that! o.O

Birthday
It’s my birthday today, and you know what would be really great? Questions! I can always use good questions to ask you folks, so … put some in the comments for me?
Well, I don't actually comment, so er, no not really. Plus I suck at coming up with questions.

Helpful
What’s the most helpful book you’ve ever read?
Hmmm...well, I guess this small book I got from my GP a long, long time ago about living with anxiety proved to be quite helpful. Certainly explained it in a way I good understand and all that.

Better Endings
If you could change the ending of any book you’ve read, which would it be and how would you change it?
Hmmm...I'm trying to think...I'm sure they've been plenty, but I'm kind of blanking on an actual example right now. Why does this always happen when I try to answer these questions. Hmmm, maybe the last Adrian Mole book, it wasn't bad, but it didn't seem to make sense in context of the book that came before it with the character's relationships and whatnot.

Quantity
How much do you actually read? Few of us get as much time as we’d really LIKE for reading, but do as much as we can, so … how many books do you read? How many hours a day?
Well, if you include reading stuff on the internet, I literally read most of the day! For hours and hours at a time! If you mean in terms of actual books? Maybe two hours? I used to read books a lot more but the internet offers a different way to read sooo...But I think I get the amount of reading I'd like to do. :O)
Right! I should wrap this up because tomorrow I'm going over to my grandparent's house and I want to be wide awaken for the Canasta playing! Wish me luck!
Goodnight all!
