It's that time of day again when I've had dinner and I'm bored.

I get to go biking later.

Fecking ShitBook
It drives me nuts. Finally swept away all the application shit (no, I don't want a flower, or a fucking garden to put it in) and culled a few 'friends' (yes, I think I looked at you once in school) and deleted some personal info. This included my relationship status, so a message goes out to everyone saying, 'Clendrix is no longer listed as single'.

Immediate torrent of messages asking about 'new man'. FFS. If I'm with a new man and you don't know about it before I update FB, then clearly you're not important enough to know about it at all.

About 5 months back, I was seeing a lass who lived about 20 miles away, and had a big barney at each other round at hers so I left early. 10 minutes later I got a text on the train ending it.
Got home and switched on Facebook to cheer me up. It said, "BK is now listed as single."
She'd switched her's before I'd even got home! It did actually make me laugh.

Evening all!
Dreadlocks - scratty or natty?

@ Clendrix
Of course I am. I never misbehave :)

However, I should ask the same question of you: are YOU behaving yourself?

yes, of course I am.

Dreadlocks - depends. Short ones can be quite cool.

Go for it! Let's face it, if you hate it, you can shave it all off and wear a hat.

Really?
Why? Do they get washed less often? Is it harder to wash them, or something?

Anybody watching The Wrong Door?

And a spaceship like a giant silver CDC! You can tell a b3tan is involved! Genius!

Oh...
nice. Himjim, I guess it all depends on whether you like close contact with people or not, then.

Tightly, I know not of what you speak.

Am currently flitting back and forth between QOTW, gazzes and e-mails.

Yes, it's true, I have a job offer in West-London which I intend to accept. I'll still be coming over to England for next week's bashes, and some time later, I'll be moving to London for good. Have mixed feelings about living in London, but I've got plenty of friends over there.

I'm tired.
Yes, you heard it here first.

One day of work left, then it's the weekend, yay :D

anyone still around?

Yes, me.
@ancrenne:
Not sure yet. I suspect sometime around mid October, or possibly earlier.

@Kaol:
I take it the insomnia is wearing off.

*shrugs*
I didn't sleep Tuesday night at all, and I had two hours this morning, so... I think I'll sleep well tonight.

I need a shower or something though, *frowns* all smoky and horrible.
( Cawl, Fri 12 Sep 2008, 0:32, Reply)

Insomnia
is a bugger. Last week I slept about 1.5 hrs a night.

This week its better, getting up to 5 hrs a night. woo.
(Zapiola zip-zap-zop, Fri 12 Sep 2008, 0:39, Reply)

Meh
I've always slept badly. Go through periods of a week or two where I only sleep an hour or two a night.

Sometimes I wish I could sleep more.
(Zapiola zip-zap-zop, Fri 12 Sep 2008, 0:44, Reply)

Ah
I know that one.

My speciality is to go to bed utterly exhausted, put my head on the pillow, close my eyes, start drifting off, then wake up and be fully awake for the next 5 hours. Used to drive my ex crazy.
(Zapiola zip-zap-zop, Fri 12 Sep 2008, 0:48, Reply)

Heh
Yeah not good. Meh. I have to be up at 6am... sigh. Then at work by 9am

fun.
(Zapiola zip-zap-zop, Fri 12 Sep 2008, 0:54, Reply)

I know that I'll
Have a head-crushing hangover on Saturday, so I'll likely be asleep 'til lunchtime then anyway.

Sleep is a useful thing, but I can get enough bits during the day to cope.

EDIT: I have to be up at eight, if I go to sleep. That gives me fifteen minutes to get showered and dressed.
( Cawl, Fri 12 Sep 2008, 0:57, Reply)

When I was a teenager
I used to wake up at exactly the same time no matter what day it was. Also, I went to bed at nearly the same time every night. This kept my sleeping habits pretty regular. Going to university, adapting to the student lifestyle quickly put an end to that.
( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Fri 12 Sep 2008, 0:58, Reply)

I
idiotically agreed to go for a run with a friend tomorrow morning.

I have no trainers that are fit for human use.
I have shorts... but they are torn to hell.

Oh and I hate running.

He's planning a 'long yet steady' run in the local countryside.

I'm only going because he got me to agree to it when I was drunk last week.

Bastard.

Mr. Z...
You should count yourself lucky, one of my mates agreed to do the London Triathalon when he was drunk.

He did the swim (in the Thames), and the cycling, but forgot his running shoes, so had to drop out.

thank god for that.

I have just got an email off a friend from uni who is planning on rowing across the atlantic.
Sigh. He always did like rowing.
