How do you lot spend Sunday night? They are so bittersweet. You know you still have the time off work (or school) and you try to enjoy it but the looming inevitability of Monday morning and the week ahead spoils it all. I generally do really mundane things, like ironing my work clothes and tidying up because I know I won't have time in the week. It's such a waste of a weekend evening but if I go out, I will start the week tired and will fall behind and get grumpy. It's no kind of life!!

Usually shake off a hangover, get my work gear ready for the week, play video games and watch TV. Work out if the hangover isn't too brutal.

I'm a financial adviser, my job is essentially to make people rich, protect them whatever life throws at them and in the process make me and my company loads of money.

Just end up selling more insurance, people are scared, so i sell em scare protection...But actually, truth be told, right now is a fantastic time to buy into the market cos everything is dirt cheap. some companies in the uk which have a huge asset base are just undervalued in some cases if you look at Taylor Wimpey are at present trading at one twentieth of the value they were at in peak 2007, I'm having some of that thank you very much, i'll chance it. and it doesn't stop there...

But right now the way to invest is mostly buy and hold, im sure there are boffins out there that can figure out a way to carry on as per normal, but you're talking to the wrong person, i only know enough to sell with conviction :D .

If I had a reliable source of income I'd be doing it. I'd be buying up shit left and right. As it is, I do not have a reliable source of income. Blasts! Lol.

Chill after an excellent party on Sat that officially lasted until 7am this morning. Grabbed some beers, and sat on the Hoe to enjoy the sunlight. She was on the Hoe, essentially the only picturesque area Plymouth has and which the most important part is a big area of green surrounding the lighthouse Smeaton's Tower. Nice place to sit on the grass and drink booze. And also get sunburn from the rays hitting my pasty white nerd skin.

Good times.
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.

I know EXACTLY what you mean! I mean, the mornings aren't bad but eventually you have to face up to what's coming. Mind you, I still hate Mondays more than Sundays.

Also, I hate Thursdays. They seem like an unnecessary obstruction between Wednesday and Friday.

Anyway, played football yesterday, and although we pwnd the opposition, I jarred my wrist badly and it still hurts like Hood's own kiss. But on the plus side, no school because of it!

I usally get anything ready I need for the week ahead and relax and watch tv. Sometimes I relax with friends, but there is always relaxing. I am with Mez, don't like to start the week tired at all. I also often make social arrangements for the next weekend on an Sunday night for some reason.

You'll hate Thursdays until you realize that the weekend ACTUALLY begins on Thursday night in college.

I recover, and think about the nice non-drunken actually restful sleep I'll be getting later on.
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....
