Last night was more interesting than most. Only marginally though.
I gave up trying to sleep around 1am, when I decided to read Empire magazine cover to cover instead. It sounded like there was a cow on my drive, literally. The mooing was so loud! I didn't even know there were cows anywhere very near my house. Then all of a sudden there was a massive crash in my room, which turned out to be my light falling off the ceiling. Only it didn't completely fall off, just the top bit so that all the wires and stuff were showing and the whole lampshade was hanging by one solitary wire. It thought it might explode or something, but I tend to have a nervous disposition in the night. Then I tried to switch on the other light above my bed but alas, it would not work. Turns out we had a power cut for THREE hours, so I couldn't even read or anything. My only option was to try and go to sleep (yeah right) but then there were TWO car alarms which went on for at least an hour. And they were both in the distance so you could just hear them and it was irritating as hell.
OKAY SO IT SEEMED INTERESTING AT THE TIME!! I actually made up a great long story in my head, which seemed plausible at the time, about how there was a cow in the attic and it stamping around had not only caused my light to fall from the ceiling but also set off numerous alarms and broken the electricity circuit or something in the house therefore causing a powercut. The worrying thing is that it actually did seem plausible at the time.
Night time should be made illegal, it does some seriously odd things to my brain.
I've decided to start watching The O.C., so I did this morning. My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance has finished in a typically corny and American way. I just made banana and raisin flapjacks :) I don't even like bananas though.
