Today/yesterday, I got a new bra. Its pink and funky. How was your day?(what an exciting life I lead)

Smoothly

Hello Late Shifters.

Is it quiet in here? Is everyone reading Harry Potter by torchlight in a tent of bedclothes?

23:36 / 23.06.03

I will be in about half an hour.

23:37 / 23.06.03

Aahh.. i wondered why we're the only ones in tonight. Its all crazy. Maybe its just coz i havent read any of them, but it seemed a *leetle* over-hyped. My friend works in Ottokars, and had to work all night, with owls flying around the shop. I hope they shat all over the books.

23:50 / 23.06.03

It's magnificent... well bits of it and fun and JK's been reading none too much fanfiction if you ask me.

23:55 / 23.06.03

Because obviously I know these things and my word makes the law.

00:04 / 24.06.03

Well im afraid it'll shortly be just you, SW. Im orf to my bed.

Tomorrow, i may or may not go to see my ex, who is just back from iraq. I think hes a wanker. He knows i think hes a wanker. And we both know i cant resist him, nether the less. And hes so fucking blunt about it as well- "so what dya think, is a good session of nasty anamalistic sex on the cards?"- hes given up pretending to want any kinda of relationship. I was gonna just not see him, but know how pissed off i'd be when he goes away again. At least i can get back the clothes i left at his at new year, which parental units have been asking the whereabouts of ever since. They musta fallen out my bag...

Goodnight all, no doubt i'll be on tomorrows late shift, confessing my sins or blabbing over my woes. xx

Been in awhile, but it's been a busy night. If things slow down I might read the book I brought, about the Ayn Rand cult. They made Aum Shinrikyo look like the D'Oyly Carte company. Or they would have if they'd had guns. I read all her stuff back in my formative years, but all I formed was a lifelong aversion to total philosophies.

College food is usually verging on the "fucking shitty". Tonight was graduation dinner, for all us lucky graduands, and it was awesome. Seared Sea Bass, Lemon Tart, Goats Cheese Salad for starter... ludicrously awesome. Now very pissed, thanks to beer, JD and the might of port. And am now posting from my new Powerbook. Life doesn't get much better than this...

Mazarine

23:09 / 24.06.03

Well, I'm overheated and bored, but the sin of air conditioning is starting to kick in. Anyone else around?

23:21 / 24.06.03

Hello! Little Miss Arrogance has arrived, finished Harry Potter and yum goats cheese salad sounds good!

Yuk. Boredom sucks.

Seth

00:20 / 25.06.03

Hey everyone. Wish me luck. About to go head to head with an uppity bastard in the final five minutes of an ebay auction for Morton Feldman's For Philip Guston. Four CDs of bliss, set will prevail!

Seth

00:29 / 25.06.03

Motherfucker beat me in the final fifteen seconds.

Very angry.

00:40 / 25.06.03

commiserations set...

people still about?

Seth

00:46 / 25.06.03

Now I'm just bidding on lots of cheap stuff, on the offchance.

Fuck help me.

I'm comfort bidding.

Because I lost an auction.

I need help.

The Return Of Rothkoid

00:58 / 25.06.03

Set: that sucks. My condolences.
However, I'd urge you to use something like Auctionstealer to avoid the whole blues of lost auctions. A bloke I know who worked at eBay said a stack of the staff there used it. It's a pay site normally, but you can sign up for nothing (with no credit details given) and get I think ten free auction snipes per month? More than enough for me.

I'm at home. I have a migraine. Sigh.

01:10 / 25.06.03

You do need help.

Bear

09:13 / 25.06.03

Where is everyone today? It's like that Point Horror book my sister had - everyone has vanished. Well not quite but it's really quiet and not just on here my office is dead and it really is my office since there's nobody else here I guess I'm in charge! Knneeeeeel before me!

The Return Of Rothkoid

11:27 / 25.06.03

No. Because I wouldn't want to give Xoc the slashy goodness that'd provide.

How dare you disrespect my Superman III quotes!

This will not stand, guards!

22:29 / 25.06.03

So Anna, was harry potter worth the hype, and owls in ottokars?
Today I ate almost a whole tub of carte dor fruity ice-cream with no spoon, which was most yummy and messy. I dread having to wear a two piece leotard next month... Ick. I wish there was someone horrendously fat in my team, but alas, no such luck. I'll have to adopt one when i get there.

How is everyone this fine evening?

22:34 / 25.06.03

harry is seventeen quid, right?

and i can get it in a shop near me for thirteen, right?

how cheap do you all think it will be in paperback, and how long does that shit take to happen?

is it worth buying the hardback, cheap and poor bastard that i am these days? for my mum?

22:35 / 25.06.03

oh, and im fine.
yes, fine.

what have you heard?

22:39 / 25.06.03

hehe- did they not see to be weary of shops selling it cheaper, cause of the truckload of them that were stolen? But yay, go buy some chocolate too. No idea when/how much paperback is. But if i find them, i'll burn them all but keep one for u.

In an evil evil way, i hope someone assasinates that woman half way thru book 7. Just to see how many people cry, cause they never get to read the end. Mwuh huh huh, literature fools.

Oh and toksik- look how bland im being in this post- I'll have none of your "miss-miss"ing tonight!

22:40 / 25.06.03

I'm chugging along tonight, doing my first writing for pleasure in months. This more due to my skill at procrastination than being busy or blocked.
I too have grown a little pot belly. Luckily my girlfriend finds Mike Myers attractive. Still, got to get rid of it, somehow...
I like the idea of the owls hiding in the bookstore.Hooting, making nests, hooting, eating illustrations from The Pied Piper, hooting, ganging up and dragging away the occasional employee, hooting...

22:41 / 25.06.03

harry is £17?
Didn't know he was that sort of a guy, really.

And I've heard everything toksik.

22:51 / 25.06.03

i am thinking about getting my mum the harry potter books, because i know she liked the first one, and she just hasnt had any time to get the others let alone read them yet.

its probably silly to buy the fifth one now, seeing as i could get the others first...

hmm.

its a conundrum.

sort of.

how was the 'date'' the other night?
did you give in or did you tell him to stick it? wait.. i mean, did you tell him not to ... oh you know what i mean.

22:57 / 25.06.03

Hmmmm... I didnt see him actually. But when he gets round to replying to my texts, then i will. Perhaps tomorrow. He knows fine well I'll wait around... hell, I've liked this guy since I was 12. And now we're both grown up, but sometimes he seems like he's more "12" than he's ever been. Oh. Except that whole combat thing. That flying far away to kill people business.

And I believe he knows where to stick it. Yeah... he rreeeaaallly does

23:03 / 25.06.03

damn.

i only hope i am some lady's bloke like that.

i mean, they say you are, but i dont know...

Eloi Tsabaoth

23:03 / 25.06.03

When he was a kid did you ever think he was going to end up in the army? A lot of toy soldiers? or did he spend his time looking up the dresses of his sister's Barbies, like some kids? Although not me, obviously...

23:07 / 25.06.03

Well i only knew him since he was 14. And then he was all about army cadets. And he joined the army proper when he was 16. But i think he'd look great in a dress. Hell he'd look good in anything.

Wish he wasnt this ladys man, like this. Cause i know fine he's every other lady's man as well. Its just im the only one dumb enough to run after him the whole time.
