Copy/paste text document into LJ update window thus ensuring posting time remains in Dec 25th
Thus ends Christmas day 2005.
Just a couple of things that I need to consulte you all on:
1) Smarties. What happened to the tubes?? With the plastic caps with letters on, that you could fire at people by squeezing the tube... Now we have crappy cardboard-flip-up-attached openings... That's just wrong.
2) My hair. For those of you who didn't/couldn't rush over to Facbook after the last post... here's me... (apologies for the uberly squint glasses BTW)
Not that I listened to any of you last time, but should I re-dye the front? Make it red again... or leave it hot pink. I quite like the pink... although it is starting to fade a bit in the middle going some kind of off-white/grey... I'm tempted to just leave it and see what colour is left underneath... Anyway what do you think?
Ummm... guess that's all. Hope you all had a good day. Not too many arguments with the family, not too wasted, etc.
Tomorrow = sleep then panto in the evening... woo...
So, later peeps.
Oh, BTW you should all check out my 'current music' it is a beautiful song... may put it on my wiredsoc account at some point.
