5:01 pm - London OMG!
|
A few weeks back I was terribly stressed about living in Wales. Wales, especially rural Wales, doesn't really agree with me. I feel stared at (Phil assures me people will stare at anyone and it isn't malicious but I am normally completely oblivious to people staring at me, and in Wales...it's obvious). So meh. At the end of a long rant to Phil I ended with "People get born in the valleys and die in the valleys and have children aged 17 and never. Ever. Leave." and it turned out that struck a chord with him because he had never considered leaving either. Even though there are much better areas of the country to live in.
So at the moment I am in London, staying at BlueStu's, and tomorrow I either have a job interview or a job. Even the agency isn't quite sure. And it's minimum wage which is meh but it's a JOB. Like a real, adult job. So that's pretty much the story.
No, Phil and I aren't OMG broken up or anything.
So if you're in or near London and I haven't seen you in forever and you, like me, would like to change that, plz comment here and we can set something up, yarr!

Go see "Let the Right One In". 95% less teenage angst, 100% more believability.
Best Vampire Movie of the 21st century. Possibly best vampire movie ever.

2:46 am - Woot!
|
I was chatting with someone and they told me:
(2:44:02 AM) [censored to protect the innocent]: you know, I am beginning to think you might surpass wikipedia
(2:44:22 AM) [censored to protect the innocent]: not only do you rant, give me a full detailed explanation on something
(2:44:27 AM) [censored to protect the innocent]: you then provide references at the end
How am I doing? Pretty good, actually. Give me until the end of the month to explain everything.
current mood:  dorky

...but I'm cool with that, and there's no hard feelings. So no need for sympathy.

2:07 am - Sometimes..
|
I wish I wouldn't be so sensitive to compliments (Aww, shucks, you don't really mean that, what do you want from me, denigrating remark about myself...I wish I knew how to take a compliment.) and people raising their voice at me (Trying to stop myself from crying, and sometimes failing. It's so STUPID)
These two things make my mood flip most, I guess.

12:43 pm - SUNDRIES!
|
So there was this amazing fundraising effort by KoLers including the auction for aces44...
Remember the sundries?
This morning I got cruelly awakened by someone throwing a box (BOX!) at me. It was filled with delicious sundries! And a shirt! And now I'm all happy and excited and can just about stop myself from writing these long run-on sentences with large amounts of exclamation marks at the end!!!!!...Oh look what I've done now.
Pictures when box-thrower is up and about.
In the meantime:
- I am a shirt-bearing rabid* ADH fan now!
- OMG MEAT STICKER!
- I always thought radio button candies were those fizzy ones that came in a roll...
- So much snack food!
- Socks. Those socks are beyond awesome. I will explain why in more pictures...
- More to follow. Cadbury's creme eggs nom nom. Must...stop...self...from...eating...before...tonight...
Show tonight. Expect sampling of snack foods on air!
*I'm not really rabid. Please don't put me down. If I foam at the mouth it's from the tooth-brushing after eating all that snack food...
current mood:  awake

3:24 am - Tomorrow...
|
Tomorrow I'm actually gonna talk to people about what they want. This is 1) ridiculously proactive and out of character for me and 2) probably all going to end in tears. Metaphorically speaking.
Anyway, I spent 7 hours (in a row!) working on Cupid today. Good, shiny money soon. Yeah, that should cheer me up. I'm a good capitalist.
current mood:  anxious

8:18 am - UPDATE!
|
I arrived at the other side of the pond safely - and there was plotting so that I could see Starkmoon again, yay!
Erm, I also managed to do a bloody good show considering I had one hour of sleep. And I got another shift - wednesday night/thursday morning. Should be loads of listeners. Whee!
Maybe there'll even be an RKoL/GKOL collaboration show extravaganza on the 2nd of August, it depends whether Starky gets the A-OKAY.
PS All this energy is lack of sleep. Really.
PPS Trifles should *not* be fuzzy and green. Someone spank BlindingPhil for me.
current mood:  amused

3:29 pm - Yet again...
|
I am trapped in a room with WoW geeks. This time not even an hour after explaining that talking about WoW game mechanics is amazingly boring to people that don't play WoW.
Anyway (the KoL bits)
Soon, I will have my T-shirt! And sundries.
I managed to convince my housemate to come to Glasgow for the KoL meet, which should be a lot of fun. I'm going there pretty much directly from Italy. I'll only be in Dutchland until the 14th. If anyone who is coming to Glasgow wants Dutch or Italian goodies, let me know, mkay?
Next show Tuesday 3-6PM Eastern. That's 9-12 in the Netherlands, if you folks want to listen.
Anyway (the meatspace bits)
OkCupid owes me about 1360 dollars, which I'm hoping to get before the 14th. I've got a whole lot of stuff to translate and change this month, and another creative project which might even get me some money at the end of it.

I am so happy to have brought my laptop. I am trapped in a room with WoW geeks. They are being loud.

12:11 am - The show strikes back
|
Show number two all done. Things went a lot better this time. I got my contests working too! It just took a lot of effort to explain to Enemy Lasagna (who was sitting there with me) that while I am good at multitasking, talking to me while I am paying attention to /games, trying to download a request and send out a prize at the same time, it's a bad time for small talk. Oh well, my general confoozledness made for good radio. Oh yeah, and I have a DJ page now, even though I am not on the schedule yet.
Anyway, this was my playlist:
