I don't know what's on telly right now, but it's definitely not The Smiths

1. Oh how I miss my digital camera :-( True, I may never have got around to learning how to take half decent photos with it, and yeah, about 80% the crappysnaps I did take were blurred pictures of cats wandering off or deciding to bat at the camera strap the moment the shutter closed, but nevertheless it sucks being without it. I haven't yet ( Read more... )

Thanks for reminding me about the CAB. I'll tryyyyy to force myself along (though getting out of the house is a fairly big achievement at the moment - I don't feel scared by the notion of going outside, per se, but it just never seems to happen! Or gets put off, and put off, and put off, till oh dear, the shops (or whatever it was I needed to go out for) are shut, never mind, it'll have to wait) if it seems I'm going to need some extra prodding w/ the form.

I need more box sets! More series! I find it really hard to make myself sit down by myself and watch a film on DVD (or even episodes of a series, come to that), but I can organise a whole day around something I want to watch on telly. Weird, weird, weird. Conversely, I seem to have organised Sunday around avoiding seeing or hearing anything to do w/ the Diana concert - probably I always would have done, but when I heard Lauren Laverne's name mentioned in conjunction w/ media coverage of it, I just thought, "Nooooooooo!! Wronnnnnggggggg!" Somehow it just Doesn't Feel Right!

I'm not into sport of any kind, really, which rules out one swathe of summer telly for me. I like having something to follow, though, and keep thinking (in the absence of any drama/comedy series I like currently being onscreen) maybe I should try to get some idea of the rules of tennis or something, just so I've got something to keep up with! :-/

i've shuffled to the CAB hidden away in a hoody, feeling twitchy & barely able to squeak why i'm there to the receptionist before now (cus of being in the middle of a 'can't go out' thingo you've so accurately described.) ho hum..it gets on my tits that they (dwp) know all these things are difficult & why yr on benefits but yr suddenly meant to be able to deal with them for their forms/assessments/deadlines. the tossers.
CAB also know exactly what the dwp are looking for with these forms (often not what they're actually asking you!)

i watched the diana thing yesterday! wtf?! my brother put it on for the Quo (oh dear) but i still stuck to the end..i think i was delirius thru lack of tennis to watch (at least that's my excuse!) no lauren - fearne cotton, claudia winkleman, jaime theakston..the horror, the horror!

it is hard to make yrself sit down & watch dvds - i kinda stick to one ep before bedtime, one ep at lunch..or if you lend em off someone it makes you watch them i think (cus i'm nitpicky about returning things to people). think i'll watch queer as folk (uk version) next - to get my russell t fix now there's no dr who..nothing to do with the fit cast or anything..oh no..
