Wii and Porn…

// January 31st, 2009 // No Comments » // Rambling

Today seemed like it was going to be a day spent on the sofa watching crap TV. In the end in turned out to be a fun filled ‘credit crunch’ friendly day of introducing my friend to a classic film (I mean have you heard of anyone who hasn’t seen ‘The Princess Bride’!), laughing at each other attempting to hula-hoop and ski-jump on the Wii-Fit, whilst shouting words of encouragement i.e: “Hurry the fuck up, you’ve got 4 seconds left!” and hiding behind a pillow for the film that is “Zack and Miri …”

Awesome day :D

Watched:
The Princess Bride (1987)
Zack and Miri Make A Porno (2008) - play spot Superman…

Obsessed

I love love love obsessable.com. Their take on the Wii Fit is very amusing.

“I can’t wait to get less fat!”

Confessions

// January 29th, 2009 // No Comments » // Rambling

Today I ran out of reading material (my motto in life is: a book a day keeps Alzheimer’s away - not really I just read stupidly fast.)
A confession. I was forced to read (it was that or read the back of the shampoo bottle) Angel by Katy Price. There I’ve said it - it came free with a woman’s magazine (Glamour?) last summer and has been haunting me from the pile of books I will only read if:
I get snowed in.
If there’s a nuclear holocaust and I’m the only survivor and these are the only other books left in the world to entertain myself with.
But I cracked and read it. Pray that it doesn’t come to this next week (must get to the library) otherwise I’ll be reading ‘The Wag’s Handbook’ - kill me now.

Reads…

// January 28th, 2009 // No Comments » // Rambling

Currently attempting to read ‘A Farewell to Arms’ by Ernest Hemingway. To be honest I would much rather be reading some trash I could whizz through in a few hours but since I have turned 30, I must attempt to re-engage my literary brain. So far I’m finding it wordy and over descriptive, a bit like one of the loathed A Level English Literature books!

Watched:
Kyle XY - TV show [sci-fi/teen drama] I’m amazed at the lead actors eyebrows - I think he must have had botox. Good premise for a show though!

New camera

// January 26th, 2009 // No Comments » // Rambling

Lovely boyfriend got paid and I got my birthday present (not too bad only a day late.) It’s a Fujifilm Finepix J100 - very simple, very sleek looking - all in all a decent point and shoot that one can work whilst on the lash.

It’s yet to be taken on an outing yet, as it didn’t come with a case. Personally if you are selling a camera with a large LCD screen, you should bundle a case with it. Even if it’s one of those socks, to prevent scratches on the screen. It also has a dial for changing the modes, which is handy, as on my last camera I kept hitting the self timer when trying to change the mode and getting photos of the inside of my bag, the carpet or the wall.

Watched:
Hello Dolly (1969) - still haven’t recovered from the weekend and musicals are my saviour.
