Once again I totally forgot I was doing a meme. Oops. Anyway, I am spending the weekend trying to avoid reports, pictures and video from Take That. Currently I'm watching Serenity and have just finished tidying under my desk. I miss the days when I could quote all of Serenity along with the movie. But it's like watching it with fresh eyes, which is ( Read more... )

We had relatives over today so I had to get up - boo! But we saw The King's Speech yesterday and I really enjoyed that. Thanks to seeing that and Black Swan on Thursday, I've now seen half of the Best Picture nominees and should be up to 7 by the time the ceremony is on - and this year we have Sky Movies for the first time, and I'm off on the ( Read more... )

Watched the Golden Globes. Didn't have much of an opinion in most categories but was pleased or indifferent in the majority, except for Chris Colfer winning. I had actually said to Mam "Anybody but Chris Colfer should win this one" right before they announced it, so eh ( Read more... )

Went to the match today - the less said about our performance the better but we scraped a not-really-deserved point and I'll leave it at that! Went to the pub for a few hours after - much easier when Dad's not there because I can stay as long as I like! He always wants to get home - he's an old man now ( Read more... )

I was doing so well posting every day, and then missed one day and gave up after that! Fail. I think it's mostly to do with the fact I wanted to post the next question in the 30 days meme, and couldn't think of an answer. I still can't, but I shall waffle about it anyway!

Day 18 → Something that you missThis is really hard. There are a lot of ( Read more... )

I am very much enjoying my 50p off at Starbucks vouchers. Even though the cream is still the crappy new stuff that melts far too fast. I was really super tired this morning for no reason at all, so I think it'll have to be an early night tonight ( Read more... )

Another quiet day today - which has seen the beginning of 2011 being the year of nostalgia. I went in the bath with a book I haven't read for years and although I got out of the bath after an hour or so I have done nothing but continue to read it since then. It was Jennings Goes To School and I have been crying with laughter at it (and reading bits ( Read more... )

I had the day off today, so I went into the York office to say hi to people and have a Christmas Starbucks with Michelle, before finishing my shopping. While I was talking to Aimee and Gemma, Sacha came over. Sacha is, I think, foreign, though I'm not exactly sure where she's from, she just has an accent. I was talking about Jill, who I work with, ( Read more... )

This is really turning more into "30 Weeks of" instead of "30 Days of"!

Day 13 → Your siblingsTwo half-siblings - Thomas (10) and Emily (5). Their birthdays are at the end of January so they're almost 11 and 6. They are both super cute and since I only see them once every few months (they live in Liverpool with their mum, not with my Dad and his ( Read more... )

Day 12 → Your favorite birthdayI remember having various birthday parties when I was little - strawberries and ice cream in our garden, bowling with my friends, playing netball in my garden where Dad had to be one of the nets because we only had one proper post, having a group of friends over for my 18th where Selina, Quinn and I watched the Buffy ( Read more... )
