I really need to freshen up my CD changer
Posted: June 24th, 2006 | Author: Bone | Filed under: Uncategorised |Long week for the Bone, I haven’t had a day of doing nothing all week (what kind of unemployment is this?), and I’ve managed to do about 850 miles in five days! If you will allow me to Gorman-ise for a minute, my average speed for this week has been just over seven miles per hour, for five whole days!
Let me break it down.
400 miles Traveliing to and from Leicester on Monday and Tuesday to pick up the rest of my things and say a non-teary goodbye to Matt and Tom (”hey andy, when I move into my new place you’re invited to the party”, “nah, can’t be bothered”).
100 miles going to Carlisle and back for holiday shopping on Wednesday, and getting my degree class via text whilst in a traffic cue.
Around 100 miles going to Kendal and Lancaster on Thursday to pick up a wall-safe and air-conditioning unit, I felt just like a UPS man (except without the shorts).
About 250 miles today because I drove to Newcastle to see my Grandparents, one of which was in hospital (but happily we drove him home from the hospital because he was getting better, though the nurse did give him a bag of pills big enough to keep a raver ‘buzzing’ till Chrimbo).
Oh, and I even started reading a book, Yes Man by Danny Wallace (claim-to-fame-that-I’ve-probably-mentioned-before, my brother used to be his neighbour), so I’m going to try and be more Danny-like and say yes to more social opportunities since I’m always telling Rob that I can’t be bothered to go to the pub, when I always enjoy it when I do.
Oh, and the new Billy Talent CD is out in a few days, time for me to get pre-ordering (same goes for the TEN CD too).
[...] I don’t want to sound as if it’s a chore for me to do this post, but the clock has just passed 2AM, and I’m real tired, so I’m going to be totally unfair to aTAYLORdseign and not give them a full review in this totally sweet hoodie and copy/paste their own blurb. Finally, slick elbow patches on a stylish hoody! This brown zip-up hoody can be dressed up or down. The electric blue fish design is simple and unique with one fish swimming out of the left pocket and two fish swimming down the back right shoulder. To top off the design we have hand cut and hand sewn wide wale corduroy elbow patches. All patches are sewn with electric blue thread that accentuates the fish design - this is not your average hoody. [...]
Danny Wallace Rules! I read Yes Man on holiday last year and loved it, the locals must’ve thought i was a nutty english girl laughing to herself! Also read Join Me and that was very funny too, you should read it.
