Good morning, my friends!
Is it only me, or does anyone else feel, when on the tube, that the guys keep looking at you as if waiting for you to take a picture of them with your mobile? It's been 3 times today that boys not at all sexy have been staring at me and my mobile on the tube. Then, there was a real hottie, but he wasn't interested on me at all. And I'm not going to be taking pictures of anyone, anyway.

Ah! Yesterday I started earlier so went home earlier, which saved me of being trapped for more than 1h on a Jubilee train. Only thinking about it makes me sweat. And after 1h trapped, the passengers had to leave, in groups of 10, walking on the tunnel until the next station, at rush hour. I would have had a panick attack for sure.

Finally, my project has been cancelled, so I don't know what I should be doing with my time, but I'd rather be in bed than here.

So, my questions:

i.- When have you felt everybody's looking at you? Was it real or just your imagination?
ii.- Any horror stories on the tube, train, bus or plane? (no terrorist attacks, please)
iii.- Where would you rather be now?
iv.- How are you feeling this morning?

There, that should keep you busy for a while.

EDIT: Oh, and this is for BGB. I didn't know he could sing too, maybe you knew already? forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3404513

Morning Abs!
Posting on my phone and can't remember all of your questions, needless to say that public transport is a cess pit of human scum, if possible I'd drive everywhere, protected from the hoi poloi's idiocy and germs.

I'm a little hungover after going to the pub, where I chatted to Holly Willoby about her new little baby.
(, Wed 20 Apr 2011, 8:01, Reply)
Hi, hi!
I hate public transport. I can deal with trains up North, as they're usually not too crowded, but here in the South you have to fight for a place! And sometimes, you have to fight against a bag, which needs your seat more than you, clearly! Luckyly I'll stop using the tube soon; that'll make me happy.

I don't think I know Holly Willoby and didn't know there was a new baby on the world. Is the hungover worth it? I mean, did you have a good time at the pub?

Where is "here" exactly? Are you at work?
1) yes. I almost fell down the stairs going into my lecture theatre and everybody laughed.
2) I was catching the bus to Noel's and a guy sat next to me, and kept asking me really personal, intrusive questions.
3) I wanna be at home but I do get to go there three hours early tomorrow
4) I feel fucking FANTASTIC. I just got a phone call telling me I've been given a $5000 scholarship for biomedical science. I am going out dancing later to celebrate!

Morning!
i. Whenever I haven't checked my zip recently
ii. I've missed the last train a few times, that's always scary. Especially since I'm usually pretty drunk and not really capable with coming up with a sensible Plan B at that point.
iii. Back in bed.
iv. Fairly chipper but slightly knackered.

I'm also "between projects" at work at the moment. I'm spending more time helping co-workers and looking for stuff that's going to come up in the future.

Also reading b3ta and a book on my phone*, forging my timesheet and making lots of tea.

I've slept at Euston

iii. Which flavour? I have a Sainsbury's right here :)

On the telly just now there was a trailer for a film called "Beastly", it has made me VERY VERY ANGRY.
It's a modern tell of Buety and the Beast, you know... man is all arogent and rich and then suddenly he's given a curse where he has a year to find 'true love' while being very ugly, and he falls in love with a girl who doesn't care about looks too much and he tries to put it inside her in time. They didn't tell the ending, but I guess he wins the task, breaks the curse, and it turns out that he prefers to look 'beastly', or she decides to be 'beastly' with him and all that.

This is what he looks like when he's 'beastly'.

Fuck's Sake America, seriously, if I looked like that, all dark and brooding, I'd get all the chicks, well, thats if people didn't think I tatto'd myself like that intentionally and thus am a 'twat'. America really needs to learn how to deal with the whole beuty thing properly.

My mate John comes 'round, borrows the light from a local school, he's well good with that little lighting switchboard.

2) I haven't had a plane ride since 9/11 without out at least 15 minutes of "OH SHIT, I AM GOING TO DIE, THAT ASIAN MAN HAS A BOMB", and I can tell because the plane looks like it's going slightly downwards and they haven't told anyone and we're at least 30 minutes away from the airport. If you could still smoke on flights, I'd fucking fly so much more.

3) After watching these little 5 minute tv shows on FoodNetwork between shows, and Rick Stine yesterday, I want to be an Malaysia or South Korrea, with a TV Show, making a TV Show about food and cooking. There was a guy, who I've seen only twice, a malyasian TV chef, who I really love, he's like a Robin Williams character, overly camp and really funny.

and so you could play tomorrow. Now, if you think it won't be done tomorrow, then you shouldn't play tomorrow either. Call the office and ask how they're doing and if you can play.

1) When I had my legs waxed for a second time, the looks I was getting off the 100 or so people present amused the hell out of me, nearly distracted me from the pain too
2) I've seen a few fights on trains and buses, been unwittingly involved in a couple too, they're never very nice. As for planes, after a flight a few years back, I'm now a nervous flyer, which pisses me off, because I used to love going in planes.

3) Bed, or just chilling on my couch. Normally I'd say pub, but I'm trying to cut down on my boozing for a while.

4) A bit tired, but nothing new there. I got a kiss and a cuddle off a girl I quite like last night, so I'm rather happy about that.

i) I feel like this a lot in new environments. I've just started a new job and when I get up to go to the toilet or the printer I keep doing little things like subconsciously straightening the lining in my trouser pockets in an effort to look natural and relaxed. I then notice I'm doing it and feel like a right plank.
ii) The other week I was in London for a concert and thought I was still youthful and cool enough to manage 24 hours of doing stuff between the Saturday and Sunday morning trains. By the time I'd left this club round the corner from St Pancras and still had three and a half hours till my train home I was a blistered, zombiefied wreck.
