Hello one and all. I havent updated this since before I went to Ibiza, and even before that I didnt say much, so thought I should say something.
Well Ibiza was loads of fun. Did the usual clubs and stuff. It was tres sunny which is how I like it!!
After Ibiza went to London for Cubed which was proper blazin! I really enjoyed myself that weekend. Normally at cons I do all the autos and photos and some talks so miss out alot of the general craic. But as I only did autos and had 2 photos I just got to hang out with people which was much more fun. Met some people for the first time who were all lovely, especially Matt, Andi, and Rachel, but everyone new I met was great!
Work has been really shitty. Well it had been fun while Nuala came to work with us! But she has left now to go back to uni and its getting shite again. Mandy, who is my favourite person at work, has been on holidays, and is taking some more as she had loads of holidays to take before the year is out. Plus we seem to be missing each other on the rota. So I miss working with her loads. I'm not enjoying work like I used to, and with so many shite staff coming through like Robknob and all the people who stay for a few days and leave, you'd think the good staff would get better treated, but no.
Also ... went to see Little Britain live. It was so much fun! Paula came with me, she was so drunk, and we were quite near the front and every character than came on Paula was like I FUCKING LOVE THIS ONE really loud and everyone was staring lol it was tres funny!
When I was coming up to The Odyssey (where Little Britain was playing) I needed to move over a lane to get in, but the police were moving everyone on. So I turned to the boy in the car beside us and was like PLEASE LET ME IN!!! and he let me in. So I gave him a wee thank you wave. Well ... was he not sitting beside me at the show!! 8,000 people there and the boy beside me is the boy who let me in!! So I was chatting to him, and he said he was from Ballymena, and drunk Paula starts running Ballymena down saying they're all drug pushers. Luckily the boy seen the funny side (plus it's kinda true so not much he could say lol)
I'm just back from a wee week in England. I stayed at Kat's for a few dats and got treated like royalty by Glenys which is always fun, she is the greatest woman ever, and the best cook to go with it. And we all know the way to my heart is through my stomach. On the Sunday we went to Collectormania and I met:
Maggie Grace
Ian Somerhalder
Sam Anderson
Amber Benson
Elisabeth Rohm
Juliet Landau
and although I didnt queue to meet Mark Lutz or buy an auto I managed to get a conversation out of him (well it wasnt a REAL conversation, it was him repeating everything I said to Elisbateh Rohm but in a Dublin accent)
I had such an embaressing conversation with Elisabeth Rohm. First thing she said to me when I went up was GOD UR HANDSOME! WHATS YOUR DEAL? and I didnt know what to say so just kinda shrugged my shoulders and said nothing. She said "What do you do?" and I thought she meant what do I do to make me handsome lol, so I said nothing, which led to her thinking I did nothing for a living. But when I corrected her and told her I worked and where, she got into a conversation with me about Belfast cos she made a movie there and stuff. So the embaressing coversation turned out OK in the end.
Maggie Grace was beautiful and wonderful as always. I had brought her a birthday present and she was all chuffed, she told me I was very sweet and that I was wonderful as some of her friends hadnt even remembered her birthday lol. Had a nice chat with her which was good cos at LFACC when I met her I went all fanboy and said nothing really lol.
Ian Somerhalder was very cool, had a nice chat with him about The Rules Of Attraction and Clare Kramer. I had a photo with him at his table but I look retarded, so had a proper photo with him later, and he remembered me which was nice. For both Maggie and Ian something happened to the camera so I got to stand with both of them for a while. But both photos that were taken with each of them turned out fine so I took each of them from the desk lol I dunno if I was supposed to pay for the extra one but oh well! lol
Then Monday me, Kat and Lou went to London for a few days. Went to see Mary Poppins on Monday night, there's this scene where the childrens toys come to life, it is very very freaky!! And the Mary Poppins is scary compared to the movie Mary Poppins lol
Rest of week was fun, but I was so broke it kinda spoiled it a wee bit for me, I felt like the boring broke person. Although I did manage to buy a few things in Harrods. As you can see when funds are running low I know where to shop lol
So Im back home now, and back to work on Saturday. I really wanna see The Departed at the cinema, even though I dont like Matt Damon but it looks good.
Life is quiet, just have L2 to look forward to, and Pink gigs even though they're weeks away!
Well this has turned into a long ramble of shite. Hope everyone is well!!! If you have myspace go look at some of my C10 pics
