I'm at a store looking through DVDs to blow my gift card on and I stumble across "Sunshine".
I've been meaning to get that for a while.
Buy DVD.
Get home, open DVD.
DVD not in case... Wait...

Today.
Go back to store ask for exchange. No more in stock.
Get refund, go to other store, they have none.
Go to other other store. None.
Go back to other store and order.

This movie better be good.

Already used up half of my internet downloading pr0n.


Fixed that for you.

That would be the "classic" pr0n. :)


I'll have you know I purchase only the best in pornographic materials...and classic '70's pr0n mustaches are OUT!

Then you are still behind in your pr0n/ classy nude choices.

Carefully tailored French waxing jobs are coming back in fashion, as are styled and trimmed triangles.
On the male side, you can stop shaving your pubes (oh wait, you're still that young :unworthy:) and just cut them short. As those in the know of male grooming put it in the fashion and lifestyle magazines: you have to be a real narcisist to take the time to meticulously shave every inch of your johnson and its immediate surroundings every day when the world is in crisis.

finally got a round to looking at which case to pick for that term paper of mine, which is due next friday.

It's dealing with Aboriginal peoples and various constitutional issues surrounding them. I had a general idea that I wanted to write about commercial Aboriginal rights and such. so, after a quick google, search, i figure out which one of the cases we can pick from deals with that topic. I find one, perfect.

I go to download it. open the PDF....


and it's 307 pages long.

Assignment due tomorrow. Lack of sleep. Other stuff I can't get out of my head. Confirmed the fact that I don't respond well to coffee, undless it's caffeine-free, which kinda contradicts the purpose.
Another night with maybe four hours of sleep ahead.
When running to catch my train after work I of course missed it and nearly toppled over my head was spinning so fast. Gah. Thank god tomorrow's friday and I can sleep looong on Saturday.

Off to fing something other than coffee that will keep me awake another couple of hours.

Red Bull.
Amphetamine.
Cocaine.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Crushes happen. Other people don't stop being attractive once you're married.

Be a grown-up and think things through. Good luck with that thought process and shag someone good at the end of it.

Heh, thanks man, thinking isnt my best part in those cases, but Im trying to stay sane (hitting the wall with head etc.). But yeah, people dont stop being attractive...but usually many people who are mostly not married will tell you that even look at other woman is forbidden (apage satanas!).

Edit: Solved...at least I think...:unworthy:

Thoughts of 'the one that got away' are creeping back into my head lately. Having trouble sleeping.
All things said, I never had quite as good a time dancing with anyone else, by a long shot. Like she always knew what I meant to be the next step, next move. Perfect sync.
Despite having ways of checking without any problem, I've no idea where she is or how she's doing nowdays. It might be better this way. Then again, when I had my great chance and could reinforce her leaving the guy she's with now, instead of shunning her for rash decisions, was also 'better that way', but where did it get me? This one time I should've taken the egoistical option.
Bleargh.

Last Monday I went to visit my beneficial friend G up in Bedford - the one I had the threesomes with, a threesome facilitator, you might say. Her internet wasn't working but I was expecting to spend the entire week in bed so I didn't really care. When I got there, she met me with her friend, who I will call Three, G told me she'd met this guy the Saturday before and wanted him as a boyfriend but had persuaded him to wait a week so she could fuck me for the last time. I thought good, she's met someone she likes romantically, and good, we can still bang. She then made me carry all my luggage around a town centre while shopping, then paying for the shopping in the Tesco's her new guy works in that's ten minutes from her house, then carrying it back to her place to meet her dog, watching her show Three how to do beading, then staying there with Three (Three being a woman in an open relationship who doesn't mind sex with me and G at the same time but prefers her longtime boyfriend for solo) while G went to Tesco at about 8 to get some milk. At that point I'd had about 28 hours of being awake. Three hours later I went to bed from tiredness, fifteen minutes after that G came home, told Three that she'd run into her new guy at the store, her new guy wasn't actually OK with her shagging me for five days and she turned my weekend of decadence and threesomes into paying £100 to dogsit while she visited her new guy. Two days before I got there, five days after I bought the tickets. She'd literally slept in the dogbed that night out of guilt. Oh, the second to last night was fine, but Three's birthday meal with Three's boyfriend, who I will call Robotnik, turned into commiserations over G's shitty timing. The point of the week was a final shagging session in a house that didn't have either an exboyfriend in an adjacent room or family members coming home from a trip to Egypt early to ruin it, to have a really good farewell to the beneficial part of our friendship, and then Tesco! TESCO!

And then I made the five hour journey back to Plymouth after two hours sleep, and two hours later went to my sister's house party and made out with the girl my older brother dumped the day before.

It might still be better than the worst week I had in January last year but it STILL sucks balls.
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

My girlfriend has essentially become Sammi from the Jersey Shore via e-mail.

I'm done. No more girlfriend.

@Illy and Amph
Commiserations lads. :p
BTW Amph who is Sammi and what is a Jersey Shore?

Dear 2011,

Thanks for getting your shitty business out of the way early.
You can stop now.
Please serve out the rest of your time being awesome.

Meh, it's worth a try.

Jersey Shore is an MTV show in which several 20 somethings are essentially paid to party and hang out with each other on television.

Sammi is a girl who's created this awful dynamic with her boyfriend on the show of "They're madly in love/She's insecure and accusing him of cheating/They're fighting/They're madly in love etc." Her boyfriend did kiss two girls at a bar (it was a completely hammered, three-way kiss kind of thing) and that's set her off again.

Mine is basically accusing me of pushing her away so we can dissolve things - when it's her constantly being rude to me and talking about breaking up. It's as if she's incapable of seeing how shitty a person she's being because she's mad. I reached out after the last fight and thought we'd settled things. Nope. She's right back to the same talking points and putting words in my mouth. It's like anger blinders combined with completely insane woman-only logic or something.

She's mad because she's feeling distant. She's feeling distant because she's reading shit from my conduct which isn't there. She's reading shit from my conduct which isn't there because she's away from everyone else and thus irritated/mad. It's cyclical and completely fucktarded to deal with.

Exactly like Sammi.

Ta, gotcha now.

Wow, talk about being in a catch-22 there. If you say anything (besides complete agreement, in which case you may as well cut off your own balls right now and save her the bother) she will just interpret it as you being a bastard, and if you don't then you're just being a distant bastard. Best to leave well enough alone I think. She will either come out the other side realising her mistake on her own or she will continue to be a harridan and you'll be well rid of her.
In my experience though, jealousy is often worst in those who apply their own standards to others.

got hammered last night. as in completely "fuck, I doubt I can get home without assistance" hammered.

THis hasn't happened in a while. granted, i've had the reputation of "the always semi-sober and responsible one", which means most of my friends were eager to get me that wasted simply to be able to point that fact out to me (though not in the "in your face" kind of way). and the girl I was in love with for a while, before we ended up becoming really good friends was the one who did most of the plying liquor into me. she's also the one who graciously took care of me at the end of the night.

I recall at some point running into a few people from work. Although apparently, I didn't do anyhting stupid, and even att eh end of the night I was coherent enough to produce directions to the cab driver. apparently, I have a built in GPS in my head or somehting, and it's the last thing to go before I pass out.

Still, I proabbly did somehting moronic.
and tomorrow i'll have to deal with ppl at work..... sigh
