Safe Sex on Ladders

Check out this to a) see how some folk have to much time on their hands and b) to have a giggle!

Also thought I would mention that I am currently trying out the opera browser version 8 at the moment. This is kinda similar to Firefox but has a couple of great features it lacks (the wand that stores your passwords is fantastic) and also, it is a lot quicker for page loading.

Other than that, I just got an assignment back that I crammed into the night before after a two week extension, not going to bed until 8am - and got 69%! I'm well chuffed!!!!

oh dear god......

I cannot believe a song that I have known since I was about 12 years old has finally become directly relevant to my life.....

Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
And I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out
What's in my head
And I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what's going on?
ooh, ooh ooh
and I try, oh my god do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray, oh my god do I pray
I pray every single day
For a revolution
And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out
What's in my head
And I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what's going on?
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination


I am sure the majority of you will recognise the lyrics as 4 Non-Blondes, but its in particular reference to the opening line and the date of posting that causes me the most worry!!!

Half way to 50 drew :o(

I'm a Liberal apparently!

Who Should You Vote For?

Who should I vote for?

Your expected outcome:

Liberal Democrat


Your actual outcome:



Labour -11
Conservative -40
Liberal Democrat 64
UK Independence Party -2
Green 40


You should vote: Liberal Democrat

The LibDems take a strong stand against tax cuts and a strong one in favour of public services: they would make long-term residential care for the elderly free across the UK, and scrap university tuition fees. They are in favour of a ban on smoking in public places, but would relax laws on cannabis. They propose to change vehicle taxation to be based on usage rather than ownership.

Babysitting!

Well folks,

Tonight I was given the task of looking after the wee one and what a star she is! I got to my mums house about half four in the after noon to find Eabha in the back garden where she just wouldn't come back in!!



She wouldnt put that ball down unless I took it and promised to either bounce it like a basket ball or throw it way up high!

Finally got her in the house after some bribes with some chocolate and promises to read her a book, but the cuteness that is her decided that she would put this on her head..



So after a lovely chip shop dinner it was bathtime but she just wouldnt go for a bath for Heather before she headed out for a 21st birthday party, so after she was gone it was up to me to bribe her with some chocolate!! But how cute is she though....!



She played around for a bit after that and finally, after reading her the same book about 50 thousand times, she fell asleep lying on top of me while having her evening milk! Was so nice, she didnt cry once and absolutely seems to know and trust me now, which is cool as I dont think she is entirely comfortable with her dad (the tosser...).

Anyhoo, that was my distraction from the dreaded study tongiht, hope everyone is well!!

how much to you type!

Here's an interesting thing..

Over on the chatsite I moderate on, we have started a team in the Project Dolphin thingy. It basically records how many times you hit any keys on your keyboard and transmits it to the site. Each team then competes for the top spot! I have no idea if there are any prizes but then its actually quite fun to watch the figures go up.

So, even though I can't join (i dont think) with you lot I thought it may be fun for you to all start up a b street team!

Just a random thought!
