Forgot if I was in early today, so I called the office (I never call the office) basically cause my brain was mush. In at 12:30.

Children of Earth. End of 3x04 made me sad. End of 3x05 hit me more. :(

Brekkie! :D

Heini's mam is awesome. She#s been giving me ideas for the wedding. Like, if I don't marry in Brondeifi I can still get married in the chruch in the uni and get like pretty pictures cause of tghe long corridors and shit.../. SHe;s awesoem. Tonight was awesoem (bit drunkm can yoiu terll? :D) Gomnna see if Marl'sdoor is open, if not m,not worries..l butr if it is, yeah!!!! LD Cause his bed is comfy. and mine isn';t and I'm kin da not lookingh at the keyboard and getting it a bikt rightt... W00tage! :D

Fonna sleep now.. Naight!!! :D

Rach xxx!!!! :D

So the boat trip was ok. A two hour drive to get there (and I almost crashed into my dad - mum was distracting me!), seven hours on a boat WITH NO BATHROOM!! and two hours travelling back after testing out Waitrose's loos (very nice, posh shop - they had bagels with cream cheese and salmon that were cheaper than the all day breakfast sandwiches!). I fell asleep at 9:10ish, woke up at 10:20 then went back to sleep till 9am this morning! I was bushwacked!

So today, I'm still in my pjs, but I'm going over to mum's in a bit cause Mark is with his parents until 8:30 (I still don't like them and would rather not spend time with them for the forseeable future. I don't care how nice his mum is being, she and her husband still fucked things over and said that I didn't love Mark as much as he loved me if I didn't move to fucking Doncaster to be with a man who didn't have a job at the time... When I had a job here... I was being sensible and the fucking bastards threw it back in my face... Whatever, I don't like them.) and, even though I'm tres comfy here, I need some company.

Just had some Jaffa Cakes. Yummy! :D My net is still frozen toffee slow though. Like jumpy and shit. :(

Right to Oz mum and dad's house!

Just normal work, it's anything I can lay my hands on, usually something with lyrics. When I'm writing, it's wordless music (so dance music or soundtracks and stuff like that). It's awesome cause the music influences the mood. :D

So the housewarming went well. Got towels. Twas cool.

Been working all day Monday and Friday for the past three weeks-month and basically dying because of it.

Getting my eyebrows shaped tomorrow. V excited. I can't pluck them as I'm allergic to pain that I cause myself... I should be fine with other people doing it! :D

Getting my highlights Thursday. Should be fun.

Saturday, I'm seeing family. Mark's coming with so it shouldn't be too dreadful.

Had a mock practical last week. Only four serious (two cause I couldn't reverse into a bay, one cause I had my foot on the clutch going round a corner and one cause there was a stupid fucking bitch stood in the middle of the road trying to cross looking fucking stupid making me get a fucking serious which would meant that I would fail if it was a real fucking test and if I see her I will really have to hold back the urge to punch her!).

Drove mum to Llangrannog last Thursday. On a sixty road, a little old fucking lady was doing fucking THRITY!!! Thirty miles an hour on a sixty mile per hour road! I almost rammed into the back of her cause she would almost literally stop to overtake PARKED cars! I wanted to punch the woman or key her car! This is still stressing me out!!!!

So... Sorry for the swearing. I hate idiots on the road. :(

Waiting for ljdq to update. It make I larff.

Rach xxx

I saw Ruth and her family today so I got to tell her that I'm moving in with Mark, cause she is the lushest customer person ever. She's so funny and funky! :D So we all got happy excited and yeah. She kicks ass! :D

It's all dark and yucky here now. I've been spoiled by the sunshine. Damn.

Anyone else doing The Porn Battle? I wanna get some smut writing practice in, and this sounds like a great idea. :D

Anyways, uh... Yeah. Bye! :D

Dear flisties, can you please spare a moment and fill out a poll for a friend? He wants a 'crapton' of answers. All you have to do is click a circle... Well, read the question first, but you know what I mean. It's a cool poll. You'll like it. :D

And now to look up stuff about Pokemon. Platinum has sucked out my soul!!! :D

Rach xxx

PS Only a few more days until I'm with Mark!!! Excited but scared slightly. :D

Oh well, I now have an excuse not to go out drinking with people. Sixth of June, I'm moving out. :D It's only across town and it's a room in a shared flat, but I'll be with Mark! :D We're both excited. :D

Rach xxx

So I'm on Eclipse now. New Moon was better than Twilight. I'm up to where Bella is seeing Jacob for the first time in ages because Alice didn't see her going so she could sneak over... Not a great message to have in a book, but I don't like a lot of it. Just... It's quite compelling to read, if only to moan about it afterwards. :: Shrugs :: I dunno.

The party rocked. I will post pictures one day, if only to show off the tutu (I need a picture of the flowers on it, cause I sewed them on, and they look cool). Had a bad day afterwards - got coffee on my fave top - but it was ok by the end of the day as I chilled out and Mark was there too. :)

He's meeting more of the family on the 27th of June. I've pointed him out to family and pointed family out to him, but I've not done a, 'Auntie [name] and uncle [name], meet Mark,' and I really should. :)

I know how I wanna do my hair for the wedding (mine, whenever it will be). You know in Back To The Future, when Lorraine is going to the Enchantment Under The Sea dance, and it's curly and lush? That's what I want. Or her hair when she follows Marty back to Doc's place and it's really pretty... I jut want pretty hair when I get married. Mark just wants to get married. :D

Been invited out on the 30th. Don't think I'll go. Just cause I'd have to get in a car to get there, so I won't get as drunk cause I'd have to travel home. :( I'll have a mini party with me and Mark by ourselves this weekend or something...

Mark's coming over! Eeee! :D

( My ranting on Twitter about NCIS ep Legends (Part 2) )

NCIS made me angry, but not as angry as when my computer suddenly decided it didn't like my portable hard drive any longer. It's ok, and all my data's there, but it doesn't work at home. At work, and probs at Mark's, it's fine. I still have my NaNo stuff (which I lost from the main PC when the computer got sent away to be "repaired", which it wasn't, it's still fucking around). But I've lost a load of my fanfics that I had saved to Word, and a load of my old Kathryn Janeway theatrical_muse stuff... I mean, I still have the LJ account, but it's the principle of it.

...

Is it bad that I could remember the Welsh for principle but not the English? At least my shorts have arrived. If I have to shorten them... Meh. It's for under a tutu. Oh!

I've got a black and red tutu, but the stiching was going all wiggy, so I got mum to sew up the little hole that came from busted stiches and then I sewed on three black fabric flowers, you know, just to cover the join. It looks kinda lush. :D And I customised a top, just a line of sequins (I cheated, they were already in a row, I just sewed them on) and some lace (mum sewed that on; even my tacking is crap). So I'm going to a surprise party on Saturday (my cousin turned 40 either today or earlier on in the week), so I'm wearing a black and red outfit - black top (customised one), black and red tutu, black shorts, red tights with black fishnets over them (under the shorts) and hopefully my black Mary Janes (four inch heels with a platform that I used when I dressed up as an overweight Hermione - I had the tie when I couldn't find my "Slytherin" tie (my old school tie)). Hopefully it'll look cool, and I won't look like mutton dressed as lamb.

:: Looks shiftily :: deltadasher (my sister) is hopefully going as a pirate. I need her to go as a pirate, cause I won't have the confidence to dress up in that outfit cause normally I'm the one in jeans and a t-shirt, but the party is smart casual so... Yeah. Is that outfit (skirt etc) smart casual? Or just weird? @__@

And I need to find my hair dryer, cause when I wash my hair and blow dry it, it goes poofy, which rocks! :D

I'm almost tempted to go as Hermione now. It's not dress up, but I would look tidy.

Right, better get back to working properly. I just wanted to update as I haven't done so in ages (mostly cause the guy who had the net that Mark shared disconnected it without warning during Sunday night (into Monday morning) and tried to sneak move out without paying the gas bill he owes). Work.

Edit: Oh! And I've started reading New Moon cause Christopher Heyerdahl is in the movie version, and I have a bit of a, 'OMFG it's Todd!' squees for him. On chapter three and it was a slog. Oh well, I have something to read on the trip up at least.

What Fictional Character Do You Associate Me With?

Jumping on the memewagon cause of boombangbing, cause her thread meme things kick ass! :D

Driving in just over half an hour. So excited! Love driving in the sunshine, even if the sunshine isn't so sunshiny any more.

A question, dear flist. What is your star sign? Do you know it? Do you believe in it (either the personality aspect or the daily fortune telling side)? Are you contrary to your sign (a shy, quiet Leo, an adamant, sure minded Gemini, an unstubborn Taurus)? If so, tell me in a comment. I'm just curious really. (An old guy came into work today and we got to talking about star signs, which got me to thinking, Can the zodiac be used in anything apart from dating or serial killing? And would it be a good plot for a novel? Yes, this is how I think.)

Answers in the comments.

In other news I'm still ill. Joy...

I'm ill. Boo. I'll most probs go to work but I feel lousy. Blegh.

I just had a really weird dream.

A few nights ago (not in my dream) I watched Zack and Miri Make a Porno and now some of my weirder dreams are centered around me and my friends making a porno. Which is really weird.

Anyways, I was in America, but I wasn't, and me, Kellie, Ruth, my mum(!), some faceless guys and the boss-man were there, and we'd just finished the first day, where boss-man and Kell did a scene, when we're shown an OS Explorer map of Brooklyn Bridge... Or like a really massive bridge over a big amount of water, and then these monsters come in, looking a bit like James from Twilight (that's a post for another time), but with more werewolfy faces (like, American Werewolf in London sorta mouth). Anyways, it turned into a bit of a movie there, where I was seeing scenes of people running, the bridge falling, and the words, 'Some don't go home at all,' came up in like a sort of silent movie sort of style (words in a frame)... Which was really weird.

So the next day, Kellie comes up to me with this massive rock on her finger and went, 'Guess who just proposed to me?' and I'm like, 'Who?' and she says the name of the boss-man. I just blink a few times and ask, 'Uh, what about boss-lady? You know, the woman you get along with?' and she says, 'Oh, he's gonna sort that out.' Then she bounces off. I get fully dressed (I was in pjs) and put on my make up - black lippy and stuff - when I get Ruth's eyeliners, and she's got yellow, orange, a load of other eyelines and red lip liner, so I take black, metallic green, yellow, orange and the lipliner. I go to the mirror, expecting black lips, when all I see is lip balm on my lips. I rub them together and all of a sudden my lips are turning black from the lippy... So I spend ten minutes trying to get the balck lippy out of the lip balm case when Jake and Ru come in.

So I tell them the good news and Jake's like, 'Oh. Good for her,' and I'm like, 'No it isn't. He's gonna dump boss-lady and she loves him!' And I've suddenly got the black and gree liners on, so I'm about to start the other colours when I woke up... It was really weird in the guys! Really weird. :(

Mark's still sleeping bless him. He looks so cute. :D Think I might wake him up. ;D

Rach xxx

I am so confused! I have no idea what the time is in here cause I don't know if dad's put the clocks forward or not and the space bar is wiggy - I have to really hit it to make it work... I am so confused. I'm going to bed.

I've watched all but one of the Star Wars movies... And I've only liked two. Is this good or bad? Cause I have to say, I actually enjoyed episode 1. And before you all get up in arms about it, I watched 4-6 first, so that way I was watching them in the "right order". Ep 1 and ep 6? Really liked. Not watched 3 yet, gonna probs watch that later or tomorrow... Tomoz probs. Over at Mark's place and I have a bit of a tummy ache... And I'm kinda tired. But yeah... I really am not a Star Wars fan. And I've tried, I really have, but... Ugh. I just keep seeing how everyone's borrowed from the movies (I mean, hi JK Rowling, I see where you got two of the Unforgivables from!) and it's taken away my enjoyment... Although kudos in the last one to Luke for saving his dad. I mean, rock on.

So in conclusion, tomorrow will see me having watched all six Star Wars movies, and not being turned a fan.

In other news, my stomach is making me feel really sick. It's not fun at all, and someone is walking about outside and I don't know who and I don't wanna look cause it could be someone I don't like.

Pokémons me thinks.

Minitop not dead, but I'm at Mark's so using this comp to update etc. Gonna watch movies later.

I went to Aber today and I got black lipstick, loads of earrings, a t-shirt and food. And we went to Costa (coffee place) and they do decaff!!! I was so happy, cause I love Costa coffee, even if no-one else does. :) So yeah, got some nice stuff... Had to walk from Morrisons into Aber proper (it's deffo a mile, if not a bit longer), and then I walked around Aber for ages... Went to the sex shop - they had big girl stuff! I was so pissed off cause I had no money left. So next time I go Aber way, I am saving for at least two paychecks.

Driving was ok, but I need to use my mirrors more. Cause I don't... And that's bad. And for the record, I hate reverse parking.

So I'm working tomorrow. Will probably get some crap from the boss about something... Don't care though, cause I have black lipstick. I might not wear it, but I have it, and as such life will be good.

Pissed off that my cherry connies aren't comfy on the toes after all the walking I did. :(

Rach xxx

:: Heddesk :: The minitop died yesterday. Yeah, my family get insta-fail points. Poor thing couldn't deal with me, dad, Jake and Ru on the net, and mum playing mahjong... Yup.

Parents have hurt Ru... Proper emotional hurt, so she's not talking to them.

It's chucking it down and I'm in my converse. Yup, I fail too.

I wanna make icons. Oh well.

Rach xxx

There's a new ep of NCIS out and I can't download it because I'm on the minitop!!! :: Cries :: And Mark's out so I can't go round his until tomorrow cause his mum might be going over later... If not, downloading that eppy then and letting him watch when I go to the gym.

I've been bitching about fic on TWitter recently, cause most of my angst is a two second thing that comes from reading a fic that has Snape looking like Chakotay (seriously, what the hell?) or Lolita having an extra 'o' - Loloita. Even the Firefox spell checker is saying the second version is wrong! :: Heddesk ::

And to top it all off, the space bar on this is crappy! :(

Good thing my Foo Fighters top arrived today.:)

I had a dream that David Hewlett was captain of a University Challenge team, except he was older... Kinda like Rodney in the Last Man episode (uh... end of season 4)... And then I was helping save this village from bad people with Sheppard and I think Sam Carter... And there was many explosions, some of them blue. It was good but kinda twisted.

And I woke up Mark with my talking... Or he woke me up while I was trying to figure out why David Hewlett was on University Challenge looking kinda old and grey...

Driving tomorrow. Mum is so much better to go out with! Seriously. When I stalled, I didn't feel as if the whole world came to an end, I just felt like a learner driver... It was great. :D

Gym visiting tomorrow. :D I really like the gym, and also, I CAN BEND MY KNEES!!!

Ok, that sounds kinda weird, but just hear me out. You know how some people can slowly bend at the knees in that uber sexy (but kinda slutty) way, like the Pussycat Dolls? I can do that again! It's not such a great look at my size, but Mark's eyes were on stalks this evening. :D So that made me feel goooooooooooood! :D

But ye gods. I ate at 8, and I'm hungry now (it's 10:35pm). This is not fun!!! :(

As I was telling Mark earlier, if they had dance classes around here, I'd go to that and the gym. Sounds weird, but I do like doing things... I just take a long time to actually get myself together if I don't have anything planned. But, going to the gym? Mum and I plan when we're gonna go and it helps, cause I think, 'Gym tonight, chill tomorrow, gym next day,' and I'm trying to walk more too... It just isn't working much.

I think I've just crashed my Windows Media Player... I don't think it could handle the influx of Rachel music (I have a lot, trufax). Hmm, resetting just made me forget why I went on it to begin with... Meh, Lady Gaga on now. It's actually a great album. I forgot how much I love new music. It's like my drug or something. :D

Right, music onto phone, then I might go to bed. Lesson at 10:30 with Ralph... Probs gonna do junctions and stuff. :) I kinda freaked mum out... I did one junction in second gear... I need to learn to slow down. :)

Now to listen to bad music. :D

I am actually giving up a few things this year, mostly cause they are bad for me... So yeah, it's bye bye chocolate, bye bye sweet stuff (which is gonna be majorly hard, espesh when mum makes drop scones and offers me some, and I'm just like, '... No, wanna sleep') and no more caffeine. That one is the hardest, cause all I drink at work is Lucozade, or sometimes Pepsi, cause I start work when my body clock has a dip in brain activity, so that's why, when you see me at work, I have the dumb.

So obviously, I'm gonna binge at the end of forty days and feel really ill and awake. Which isn't gonna be fun.

Dad actually gave up smoking and drinking the same time during lent... And carried it on. I think he's gone something like ten years now without alcohol or fags. Which is amazing, and shows that you can give up both without dying.

My uncle Mark once gave up slamming doors... Cause that was one of his bad habits... Doesn't do it any more. :D

I'm gonna go forage for food. Hope everyone has a good day!
