I’m having basically the week from hell. On Tuesday I told my housemate that I want him out by next Sunday, this is due to him not paying bills, not tidying up, eating all the food, etc. He is basically the stereotype of irritating housemate. Because of him living with me, I’m now in a fair amount of debt, due to half of the inheritance I received going on nothing but bills to cover his arse. Ugh. There’s more, but frankly it’s even less interesting than that.
I thought this would be the end of it though, and had already set a new housemate up, it would take her a month or so (which my Dad has agreed to help me through), and then I could get back on track. I’ve even been turning down others, knowing that she’ll sort me out. Yesterday, she tells me that she doesn’t want to move into my current place, can’t we look for another place? She seems utterly ignorant to the amount it would actually cost to move out. I’m now struggling to work out who I know who doesn’t live in a fucking bubble constructed by Mummy and Daddy. Add to that she’s decided to get back with her arsehole ex (again) after he’s threatened me, her, told her about how much he was sleeping with his ex behind her back, etc. And once again, she’s explained this all away in her own head.
So, erm, a question…nah, more a request. Make me laugh with the stupidest things that have happened to you recently, or a joke
Alt Q: Someone you fancy who others just don’t find attractive at all? Mine is Summer Glau, Mmmmm. Or just someone you feel guilty about fancying? Saw a recent picture of Dakota Fanning, and it felt rather odd to see how attractive she's become...

On tuesday, I was putting a log in the fireplace when the phone rang. I got a fright and dropped the (now flaming) log onto the hearth, and had to pick it up and shove it in the fire. As I did so I trapped my finger between the burning log and the roof of the fire, burning myself in the process.
So you'd think I'd learn to be careful around fire.
No, here's stupid thing number two. I *just* burned the other hand 15 minutes ago while putting a log in the fireplace.
so now both my hands are bandaged and sore. Go on, have a laugh. I know I am.

fantasy thing based on a series of books I've read. It was on Syfy.
I stumbled across it and watched a bit because it was based on the books, and then it turned out I couldn't stop watching it because she is stunning, and her outfit displays a lot of cleavage. It's reasonably entertaining in a mildly shit way.

There must be so many talented actresses out there that it seems such a waste.
Plus none of what makes her beautiful is real. She has fake eyelashes, contact lenses, lip injections, a nose job, cheekbone implants, a boob job and hair extensions.

I think it is something to do with the Harry Potter films. It makes even good actors look shit (Alan Rickman) and non-actors look terrible (most of the kids). The only people who manage to avoid the curse are Michael Gambon and Gary Oldman, and that just serves to highlight how awful everyone else is.

Avatar was cool in 3D as a novelty, but even in that the 3D didn't make it like looking across a room, it looked like a bunch of seperate layers at different distances.
Not worth the extra money or the extra blurriness on the things at the edge of focus in my opinion.

On sunday my neighbours cat came into my garden and proceeded to lie at my feet, roll on his back and wave his paws in the air. With most cats this means "tickle my tummy plz" but I have learnt from past painful experience that this cat just likes rolling on his back and will shred the hand/arm of anyone foolish enough to try tickle-tums. However (and here comes the stoopid part), I was a bit hungover on sunday and in a momentary lapse of attention gave his tummy-tum a good rub...cue four paws locking onto my arm in a pointy-scratchy death grip from kitty-hell.
I've just checked my arm, yup, more track marks than a clumsy smack addict.

There are so many questions to make. Does your sister bath him? How did you get rid of him hanging from your hair? Have you started to use thick oven gloves to bath him? But most important, why a ferret!!??
(, Thu 8 Jul 2010, 9:49, Reply)
they're quite fun to have, like cats only less maintenance, they don't need to go outside for example, so you can have them in a flat where you shouldn't have a cat.
My sister doesn't bath him because she's got used to the smell whereas Wiggy finds it really offensive so I bath him to make Wiggy less averse to having him in the house.
I just bath him using the showerhead from a distance now so he can't climb up me, he only tries to get away when there's running water on him so I can shampoo him without him ripping my skin up.
I got him out my hair very slowly and carefully, little fucker.
