Ah!

I saw The Matrix Reloaded as promised and I keep wondering why they would bother to reload it in the first place! I quite liked the original - I didn't think it was a genre definer or anything but I enjoyed it non-the-less. As a result I decided to ignore the hype and just let the experience wash over me. Now it coud be that the seats were bad and that the experience was marred because of that but I just found it a bit... a bit... disappointing I guess. Don't get me wrong - I didn't hate it and maybe, with further viewing, I could come to enjoy it but it just wasn't up to scratch...

Anyhoo, Alex couldn't get a lift back from town tonight so I didn't go for a drink after all. I haven't had a bad night though - at least people were talking tonight!! I found out all kinds of fascinating stuff...

I turns out that Joe (Da King nee IGP) is a keen astronomer and even keener Scuba diver who has been making a DVD about his underwater adventures!! Che has finished her exams and is going to party like crazy and Nicky doesn't have a romantic bone in his body.

The Stump Dibbie Thread is a resounding success *ahem* so far I have had 1.5 questions about movies, 1.5 about music and another one about games!! I'm still winning 3-1 though so I can't complain much.

Minto has decided to dedicate a portion of his site FeedyourGreed to my expressions (as mentioned earlier). It went up in a matter of seconds and I think he wants me to keep contributing on request - no problem for now.

I've spent a bit of time tonight looking over my camping gear and it's looking good - unlike the weather!! As far as I can tell it's going to be warm and rainy next weekend so the tent could come in for a bit of a battering - ah well... Buy cheap, buy twice as Alan would say.

Funny, I thought I'd done more than that today!!

Back, rested and back to work... Bummer... Enough of the moaning already!! I have just spent one of the most amazing weeks of my life with some of the most special people I know and I'm riding high because of it. So what have I been up to? Funny you should ask... I got tattooed. It's been a long time coming (somewhere around 15 years) but I finally found something that I would be happy spending the rest of my life with. I had often thought about the usual stuff, things like band names or other pop culture icons that would instantly tell people who I was or maybe even something a little out of the ordinary. At one point I had the idea of combining the lot and having a barcode tattoo which would actually be the barcode of my favourite album. The problem there is that opinions change as does technology, barcodes will become obsolete and I would be left with the equivalent of a tattoo that reads two-and-sixpence!! Inspired by the lovely Ms Hamstera I went to a tattoo pa...

Very short and sweet today but there is another good reason. This will be my last entry until I have moved to the new house and got myself sorted out. Thankfully not very much has happened but I feel like I've accomplished quite a lot. I have organised a moving posse for Tuesday which includes (drumroll) The Colonel!! He is taking time out to come up from Exeter just to see me and to help me move - what a guy. Alex is going to borrow a big van from his Dad and everyone else has offered to muck in for the night. Looks like everything is going to go swimmingly. I will be back on Wednesday (assuming the installation goes through without a hitch) so I'll blog-it-up big then. Cheers to you all and BIG LOVE. Leave me some comments - I'm beginning to feel unloved Today's Word: CULMINATION Today's Mood: Bowl of Cherries... Plate of Oysters... Nuff said

Hmmm... I have to admit that this internet absence thing is becoming weirder by the minute. I haven't dropped it completely like I did a while ago and I have left myself available to some people. It seems that one of those people (who I will refer to as Dave even though it is not her real name) has been "found out". She has/had two blogs - a weebl blog and a personal blog - which I read on a regular basis but they were found by her boss and now she is facing problems because of them. The trouble is that her boss thinks that they over-stepped the mark on a few occasions (especially when she was talking about colleagues and taking "sickies") so they have now been removed. It's a real shame because it has led me to think about what I am writing and how it could effect other people. In all honesty I don't think there is anything that I have written that I would not admit to someone face-to-face, and I'm sure that "Dave's" would say...
