Live & Kicking

I used to watch then when I was younger, although I don't remember seeing John Barrowman on it, but I've noticed that with other actors, go back and watch some of the older films from your youth and you might notice some A-list celeb's in there.

Ok so I'm still here and sorry for the recent lack of posts life sometimes gets busy, although my one complaint is that looking back since my last post I don't think anything has actually changed.

That thing you do

I wasn't expecting that question to cause such an argument.

When my mother is out and about with Sophie she has a habit of pointing out the guys she thinks are cute. It doesn't bother me that much and it's pretty obvious why she does it but sometimes it can get annoying, especially if I'm with them and it's been a long day.

So I decide to mention it, my intention was a simple request for her to tone it down a bit when I'm with them.

But she took it the wrong way and accused me of trying to dictate how she should behave around her granddaughter, that lead to a discussion with both of us raising our voices and ended with her saying she didn't want Sophie to end up like me.

I'm normally thick skinned and not sensitive to such remarks but I felt she meant that remark and it did make me cry.

That was yesterday and I haven't spoken to her since!

More crap with blu-ray

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7187179.stm

This is another reason I hate these stupid format wars. It basically says if you have already bought a blu-ray player your screwed when it comes to new content!

"We needed to create momentum and get the players on the market. If we had postponed launch to add in the hardware for the latest features, we would not be in the situation we have today." Frank Simonis, Philips
In response to that comment I would want them to swap a player out for a new one as they are saying if it wasn't for the early adopters they wouldn't be in the position they are now, it sounds to me like they are ready to forget about the people who helped get them to the top.

You can probably tell from the tone how much this stuff annoys me and I'm not even a tech savy person.
Just to clarify I do not own a blu-ray or hd-dvd player and will not be purchasing one any time soon, in fact if it's possible I plan on waiting until the next format comes along and pushes these two formats aside, but if any prospective manufactures are reading this NO MORE FORMAT WARS FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!

Happy Birthday Blog

I guess this calls for a mini celebration as my first post What's this all about was posted on the 3rd January 2007

So what's it been like?

This is post #65. I made a flying start with 17 posts in January, over 4 per week, but have since settled to comfortable 1 per week average.

I also think I've made a nice little circle of blog friends.

A new year, new expectations?
I find myself starting 2008 in much the same way as I started 2007 which disappoints me a little, I feel that I missed a few opportunities last year and hopefully won't again this year.

I'm not one for new year resolutions but I have set my self a goal which I hope to accomplish by the end of the year, I'm not going to say what it was but will let you know how I get on.

Busy time of year which explains the lack of posts, will hopefully get back into it in the new year.

Sharks

I had a strange nightmare last night which I felt like sharing as I'm not one who usually has nightmares and even after some 17 hours later I can still vividly remember it, even though the dream seems quite short.

The setting itself was a little bizarre, it was a swimming pool inside an underground cave although the size of the pool was so large you could describe it as a lake except for the tiled walkway around the edge (like a swimming pool). Everything started off ok, there were a large amount of people swimming in the pool including me, which is strange since I can't swim. Then it came time to get out, I decided that since the pool was empty I wanted to ride a jet ski and against other people's advice I did just that.
This is where things take a turn for the worse, as I'm riding the jet ski I start to see sharks in the water, at first they don't bother me but then their numbers start to increase to a point where there are hundreds if not thousands of them and there is very little water left for me. I start to panic and the sharks start to take an interest in me, I notice that I'm getting close to the far edge of the pool but the edge isn't big enough to stand on. I then see a slipway adjacent to where I am and quickly head for it, I don't slow down as I approach the ramp and launch the jet ski out of the water, once safely on dry land I walk calmly to the exit.

Weird or what!

On a lighter note, I managed to get me some on the weekend (I'm referring to sex here) and no it wasn't with Jack, I haven't heard from him since the incident in the bedroom, it was with a lovely brunette who's about 24 with a gorgeous arse.... I won't bore you with the rest of the details *wink wink* but suffice to say I hadn't forgot how it works and can officially say I'm still a lesbian, yay!!
