My inability to be concise means that this jounral gets neglected. Would you like to know some things?
I bought shoes! They are brilliant. I am clearly going through an "identity crisis" seeing as the past 6-12 months have seen me remove all piercings and purchase heels. I don't really know what's going on but it's fun.
I went out (to Topshop!!) to buy a dress to go with my new shoes (they are BRIGHT RED and BRIGHT BLUE and look like superheroes). I went looking for a plain black dress + accessories and came out with a costume reject from Beetlejuice. So I suppose my goth days are only partially behind me? I don't know, but it's facking awesome.
So, paraphrased: I consume consume consume. It's strange to be so materialistic and I wonder if it's indicative of something but fuck it. SHOES.
A lot of others things have happened in the two months I've not updated. We went to the zoo and that was good. Pete updates about these things, so often that's why I don't bother. Sam visited twice, and Mansdrew visited once, and within this time their paths did meet. There was fun had, and that was when the dangers of online Mario Kart racing happened. It is a sweary experience. It was nice to catch up.
I'm still not having anything to do with Pete's mum, and that's a thing I guess. It's so much easier for me this way but I suspect in the near future it'll become very much not be easier. I'm hoping that if I bake her a cake for her birthday, it'll buy me up until Christmas.
My brother and I fell out again, much the same scaboodle as back in September. I'm the bad person who was estranged from our late father and god forbid if I get a cut of the estate! Of course, he didn't mind about this until I told him I wasn't going to pay his solicitors fees. Anyway, it's fucking ridiculous and so complicated. He's thrown shit at me, his sister and mother for no reason. I've offered a couple of olive branches and they've all been thrown in my face, so whatevs. There's nothing else I can do, it's just disappointing because I know he won't be the one to make the move and he'll hold his grudge for years.
Related to the above, wedding plans are entirely on hold because the house sale went tits up. Which is what prompted my brother to go mental and me to go 'chill out' and that's why he hates me. Seriously. ANYWAY. They're kinda on hold butmaybenotreally. Oh, it's a thing. It's hard for me to justify such a large expense on one day so it might just be super scaled down. My aunt lives by some fields and she says she'll look into whether we can the reception there. It solves a lot of problems and everything will be more relaxed and maybe we'll hire a burger and chip van and I will make the wedding cake! I hate thinking about it properly right now really.
My job is still stupid. The place breeds laziness. The girl I work with still manages to be unbearable. I applied for something very very quickly yesterday which could be fun *and* I get to work near Buckingham Palace! That's just like working with the Queen, everyone. Ugh. I'm just so bored of this place and if I don't get out of here I'll get stuck.
I am addicted to Animal Crossing at the moment. I am honestly shit scared of the scorpion that comes and stings you.
This is long. How did that happen? Anyway, that's some stuff. You can see how I can't be concise to save my tits now.
And how're you all?
