im just settled in bed

listening to kerrang on my tv (not done this in ages) and loving the metal!

have been sick as a dog in bed all week, before this morn, the last time i slept was sunday night! the doctor came to see me on thurs and declared a nasty chest infection, and told me i had to stay home and not go to work, ive gone thru so much kleenex that mums cleared out nearly 2 bin bags full of tissues! there was a point i ran out completely and had to use loo roll, and regualar non-balsam tissues and its ruined my nose! its aqall scabbed and crusty now, very very gross. the antibiotics seem to ble clearing up most of the snot tho, thankfully. theyre the size of horse pills tho and i have to take 4 a day, so im glad theyre doing something my lips are cracked and bleeding and bloody hell, can i sneeze!?! my nose has been bleeding for about 12 hours now (not much tho) and about 6 hours ago after dinner i sneezed and something cracked, which freaked me out, i think i snapped some cartilage or something cos i have a mini headache just to the left of the top of my nose where the crack was! :(
mum and dad have been waiting on me hand and foot *much love*

the boyf (fiance!!!) also has a bad cold, so hes been told by his doc too and now mums coming down with something too :(

whats upsetting me is that my mum and my auntie have sent me some gorgeous sets of flowers, and theyre in my dinerkitchen and im in bed at mums. so i havent been able to see them :(

while ive not been sleeping, but have been coughing/choking/sneezing/dying ive been trying to get thru the pile of books that lives in my bathroom, that contains the ones im reading, there used to be only about 15 but a while ago it got over 25, which was a bit crazy, its now under 25, as ive finished 3 this week (yaaaaaaaaaaay)lets see how many i can get thru before i move! i only have one in progress at my house.

the house which i HAVE to move into this weekend. and my cameras packed up so i cant take pictures of here, which i had planned. *sad sarah*

ive also been watching TNG again after that incredibly long break of not watching any, im not into series 7, the last of TNG :(

You've Got Mail and other things...

im watching it right now, its nearly over, but i still love it, i still hate Meg Ryan (tho her daughter, Daisy ROCKS), but i pretend shes not here. tho i do love how she hops around her apartment at the beginning, how its all about fall when the movie starts, the bouquets of sharpened pencils, the books, pumpkins, books, New York. aol. DIAL UP!!! do you remember dial up?


i wish instead of working for my very own 'Fox Books', i wish i could work for a quaint little book store like 'the shop around the corner' that would be lovely. i wonder if thats whats Ottakar's was like, back in the day? i will ask the boyf.


I got my hair cut, i left the salon Saturday looking great, washed it monday and it looks shite. really. i dont know how i cant blow out my own hair. i suck.


i start pottery next monday. 8 days. im very excited. very scared. Kris has told me she will meet me at the door. so hopefully, i wont die of scaredness...


ive had an immensely mental past couple of weeks. i had a day out in bretton with the boyf. then a day out in bingley, work has been quite hellish. i decided to take down all my stuff from the top of my wardrobes, so thats like, hmm, a hundred books or more, and about 30 boxes, all my high school, college and random art work. and a mental amount of dust. ugh. its disgusting. my room is covered in boxes. COVERED. i cant move, and for some reason, my mind is dead and i keep adding shoes and clothes to the mess! i have a day off tomorrow/today (sunday) so i might have to sort it all out, im still trying to throw things away! i need help! i need someone to do to me what i can do to everyone else in my situation. i also need to wrap CareBears birthday present, that has created its own little pile by the door.


Speaking of Carebear, her new babysomething will be born on the 25th of this month. i know that the odds of it being a girl are as much as they are a boy, and that mostly we all secretly want a boy (as long as its healthy we dont give a damn really) but, to family tradition, we've all accepted now that its going to be a girl. same as i will have girls with the boyf and Sally will have when she gets pregnant again. its just the way it goes.


bonus, i found a bag of halloween stuff up there. from last year, i think i took it down when i put my xmas stuff up, the first week of december...! i have also bought more stuff in tk maxx... i cant wait to have a house to put it all in...


its now dawning on the boyf just how much i love hallowe'en


ive fallen out of lust with twitter. but into lust with some new games on facebook... im halfway thru season 6 of star trek TNG, DS9 will be next, but i cant afford it, after work cutting down my hours, and then always forgetting to pay my overtime, im very, very short on money. everything ive had this month has gone on books and food. again.


ooh speaking of boooooks... ive read 3 Janet Evanovich books now! Naughty Neighbor, Manhunt and Foul Play, and last night, ordered the first 6 in her Stephanie Plum series and another romance she co-wrote, so Hot Stuff off abebooks.co.uk (the co written one) Hot Stuff, One for the money, Two for the dough, Three to get deadly, Four to score, High five, and Hot six (i know these all off by heart now) are on their way for £2.50 a piece, all in the same style as the ones i just read, by style i mean, they will go when theyre sat on a bookshelf together, theyre all published by the same house, and they will probably be the same size from the original price. aaaaand theyre in the orginal cover. theyve done three or 4 other covers since the ones ive ordered came out, so im very pleased. and theyre all unread.... yes im sad. i know i am. i need a headcheck. im a pill.

The Next Generation

ok. i found out he boyf is a bit of a trekkie.
amazon have a sale on box sets, so i bought the entire of Next Gen, ive started watching it from the very beginning, and im really rather liking it!

cinema...

so... Star Trek was bloody amazing...!
