What have the rest of you got planned?

then going over to some mates' house for a beer or two. Or Jack in my case, beer is for boys.

I'm going to get waxed tomorrow, that will be fun.

The waxing doesn't really hurt much anymore
although it's more prolonged than a piercing.

Just make sure you know the size you want and that the person selling the bike is actually the owner.

Seeing as it was an upgrade from not having a bike
I would say it was a fairly good start. It does me well, even if it did try to kill me last time I was out on it.

The Crucible (which I still love), Henry IV which we only half read, 2 books of Virgil (who I hate anyway), the most boring bit of Tacitus ever, two books of the Iliad, which were excellent, Juvenal, who is hilarious, some tragedy which was alright... Oh and assorted bits from Livy, Ovid, Xenophon, Euripides and Seneca, if I remember correctly.

I enjoyed all of them, apart from Virgil- he's not that difficult, just that his hero is the worst character ever.

we're visiting a garden centre tomorrow
to celebrate 6 years together! last time we celebrate june the 12th anniversary, as from august 21st, we'll have a wedding anniversary to celebrate instead! the garden centre is near Hertford and supposedly a good place for a day out with a small child.
Oh, and we're buying Oliver his first pair of shoes tomorrow, now that he's nearly walking. Shoe shopping, woo hoo!

My cousin is graduating high school tonight.
I feel old.

It's only natural
I've felt old since I was about 5.

only in moments like this do I feel old
otherwise I feel like I'm 19
I really need to grow up already
