What have you got to look forward to?
On a day like today, when I've had shit all sleep when I was meant to have TWO HOURS MORE than I usually do, I think about the things I'm looking forward to. The new season of Dexter, my partner's birthday (and best friend's 6 days later), a possible holeeday in the 'Dam come Sept/Oct time...

You? Anything?

I'm currently in the golden 'honeymoon'
period of a relationship, where you just look forward to the object of your affections getting home from work.

Other than that, I'm not sure. Drinks on Friday.

Awwww, that's a lovely bit.
I still look forward to seeing my lovely Jack Sparrow-a-like. He's a big chumbly lump of wonderful.
(, Wed 17 Jun 2009, 9:04, archived)
i like that. that is lovely.
i have THEATRE to watch tonight (Cabaret), live music to hear in pub tomorrow night, friday and saturday i am working at a surf festival, then monday is probably another live music night, and next wednesday we are going to glastonbury.

AND AFTER ALL THAT i can plant my runner beans.
