Have cash, will spend

So, a little update.
After finding out Ebuyer.com has taken out another £99 from my bank, I canceled the card, so it can’t happen again, and that’ll give me time to sort stuff out. So, before I cancled it, I withdrew £50 to see me through untill I get my new card.

I should have taken a lot more out. Ya see I’ve now got £6.50 left.

I spent most of it today, at Kingston Lacy’s Craft and Gardn fair. I bought lawn camamile and dill plants [£2.50]; a waterproof picnic rug [£4.50]; a lilac fuffy scarf, that I’m wishing I hadn’t bought now, not that it’s not lovely it’s just.. I don’t know, I could have bought something better maybe [£12]; a wind chime made from cutlery and is very pretty [pictures to be taken later] [£20].

It’s odd, having money. I grew up being so frugal, saving everything in sight [because I was brought up to save for tomorrow]. I went to Uni and budgeted myself to death [nearly]. I was unemployed for godsknowshowlong and every time a birthday came along, I would really feel the pinch and wish that I could get better gifts. And now I’ve money and it’s hard not to be frugal and it’s hard not to feel guilty after a spending splurge. It’s hard to remember the idioms: ‘You only live once, so enjoy yourself’ and ‘you can’t take it with you’. I feel old before my time. Do other 20 yr olds suffer this same crisis of consience whenever they reach for their wallet?

*sigh* And I just know the kitty kat is going to have been subcounciously analysing everything I just said…

Some open letters

Dear Pieass.
Dude, you suck. Really. Fuck off back to the hole you crawled out off. NOW. Insulting other members without good cause or reason is just lame, and if you can’t comment constructively stay away from creativity. Oh, and don’t think about throwing that back at me, I have just cause and reason: you are a Troll.
If you don’t I shall warn your ass to the point of banishment, or else make your spacefem life a living hell until you get the message to fuck the hell off.
Thank you and have a nice day [/sarcasm]

Dear Lost Process,
Where do you get off being such a lame jackass? Seriously. I mean, sure you have lysdexia, but that doesn’t account for your hideously short attention span. So what gives you the right to constantly disrupt out DnD sessions, then leave in the middle of them? Maybe if you concentrated and listened for once you would understand what was going on and not feel so alienated, bored or whatever.
Oh yeah, and you can be slightly amusing, but mainly people are laughing at you, not with you cuz you aren’t funny. Though I will admit you are a master of driving a joke into the ground then beating it with a mallet until it’s well and truly dead.
Or maybe you have some kind of problem with us, the people who loosely call themselves your mates [I say loosely cuz you aren't going to have us much longer if you carry on like this]? Or maybe it’s with the game? If so, then why don’t you talk to us, dumbass? Nothing gets solved if you don’t say something.
The thing is we’ve seen you play this stunt before, the same cycle over again: Everything is fine, then you find a new addiction/ obsession to be an asshole about, which almost loses you all your mates. Then you claim everyone hates you [not that sometimes that's not true] and you hide away for a couple of months doing fuck-all. Then you come back, pretending like you were never an asshole to us, expecting us to take you back, and for our sins, we do cuz we actually kinda like you.
So here’s the deal: stop arseing around and playing these stupid games and pissing everyone off. If you have something to say to us, just say it.

SQUEEEEEE!

My dress has arrived! My dress has arived! I’m soooo happiiiiiiiiiiie!!!

[---!Explanation---
Last november I payed for two oriental style dresses; one ciruse, the other cream. The ciruse one I got on the day as there was one in my size available, the other I had to order, as there wasn't one in my size. The cream one was the one I was planning to get married in [I may or may not now, it depends]. They told me I would probably get it some time after christmas. So I waited, and waited, and it’s finally arrived!!! It came with a little note apologising proufously, and with two boxes of rose incense as a peace offering.
—End explanation—]

OMGOMG I can’t belive I got it finally. YAAAAAY! :D

Arsing body *glares*

So, I woke up this morning and it was today. Then sometime around mid morning it became tommorow. Which may explain why until an hour from home time the day went really quickly, then at 1600 I realised it was still today, and the last hour dragged sooooo much :( [Tomorrow would be dnd]

Lyke, OMG! Meme!

Do this or die:
I want everyone to ask me five questions.
Any five, no matter how random.
They can even be anonymous if you wish.
I have to answer them all.
In turn you post this message in your own journal
and you have to answer the questions that are asked to you.

So,

There’s this dude, who reads my blog, and who’s photos I am currently purusing, and I have no clue who they are! Isn’t the ‘net great?

See, if the whole world could be like this, it’d be fantastic. Oh, but first we have to shoot all the bigots. Time to get the kerosene and hob-nailed boots then :D

I watch far to many sci fi shows

I was just watching some behind the sceens Dr Who thing, and it started with a shot of the earth and the moon and I was so expecting a pink arrow to appear pointing to the Earth with a tag saying, ‘Mostly harmless’.

Which reminds me, I wonder when I’ll get time to do that ‘ultimate cross-over’ fan-fic thingy…

Dr Who wrote this shit rebutal

In reguard to what Andy wrote on this subject, I’ve come to realise Dr Who’s not quite as bad as all that.
Sure, the plots are flaky, things don’t really tie in and the suspention of dibelive required is astronomical, but the emotion bits really are quite touching, and some of the one liners are brilliant.
Lets hope it keeps getting better :)
