Just some stuff
MySpazzmySpazz is a funny thing somehow. Today I lost 1 (in words: one) friend there and it almost freaked me out. Not because I lost an oh-so-precious mySpazz friend, but because I wasn't able (of course) to figure out who it could have been. It's no wonder actually, because of the 669 "friends" I know maybe ... urm ... 60? 80? 20? and even those

Haha!! Abbreviatable? I dunno actually. Unfortunately my Dad borrowed my copy of Fowler's Modern English Usage and emigrated with it (hence my recent "creativeness" ignorance), so I can't check if it's a word, but I know what you mean, which is kind of the key to language anyway.
I remember having a very heated discussion with a German friend of a friends parents, who corrected my English at every turn, and criticised me for not speaking "high English", and told me that I had an accent which prevented me from speaking English correctly. I explained that it was actually very rare for anybody in the UK to speak Queen's English, and that that probably included the Queen! However, this gave the supercilious twat the idea that he spoke probably better English than most English people, probably including the queen. I then started to tell him every time he split an infinitive, and tell him what he should have said. It was quite entertaining.... He also told me that all German people speak "High German", and that Germany has no regional accents. Not being able to speak German, I couldn't really argue, but I quietly assumed that he was talking bollocks!!
I had a text message off Mum earlier, asking me if I was "OK with the no." I asked her what no. she was talking about, it turns out that she meant a website that she wanted me to look at!! See what I mean?
Yeah, I did seem to be tripping over the same people quite often, I guessed that there was a low attendance this year, probably due to the fairly lousy band line up. Still, I always think that the social aspect of WGT is more important than the bands. I've still never made it to Parkbühne (notice use of umlaut on English keyboard. Hell, you might think I'm a Motörhead fan or something), but maybe next year!!
I didn't have breakfast at the Westin, so nobody saw me at breakfast. I just walked to Subway for a Veggie Delight (Delite?) and coffee. Taking of which, I feel caffeine drained!
