- A fluffy blue unicorn called ‘Kitty’
The fair has come to Southampton so, what else can a girl and her flatmate do, but go to the fair? Jo and myself went on Thursday afternoon, managed to spend nearly twenty quid between us, and have nothing to show for it bar one fluffy top hat [...]

Non-sequiter of the week:

“Pigeons were mating in the birch tree today” - Moose. The point with it being a non-sequiter is that it needs no context 15-03-2005

- A fluffy worm called ‘Kitty’
I’m trying to write this news item whilst listening to Blackadder Goes Forth on tape, so if it is littered with references [...]

- Well I’m in a state of mild shock.
Possibly I am doing the right course after all. I just got one of my marks back (the multimedia, xml, quite fun in a twisted kind of way) and I did rather well!

I am still waiting to hear about my databases project, so that will bring [...]

- Some more book reviews to read: Pride and Prejudice, Cryptonomicon, Tender is the Night, Cold Comfort Farm, and Oryx and Crake. I’m not totally happy with how the review section is lain out, so if you have any ideas, please let me know.
And now for the embarrassing admission: I have no idea how [...]

- You are looking at an irritated Cas. What irritates me even more about this situtation, is that I wasn’t irritated ten minutes ago. Ten minutes ago I was rather a happy bunny, especially after pleasant conversations with certain individuals. But now, I am not happy. Not at all. Definately not. No no. Grrr.
Hands [...]

07-03-2005 (later in the evening)
- Wow, but Daredevil was a bad film! Had a bit of a Ben Affleck evening (Jersey Girl and afore mentioned red leather clad comic book character). I had seen Daredevil before but I had thought that it can’t have been as bad as I remembered. Oh how wrong you [...]

- Some good news, some bad news this week. I finally managed to get a copy of Farscape: Peacekeeper Wars on dvd, got it home to watch it, and found that disc one was unplayable. So I’ve just taken it back and got a replacement, so hopefully I can watch it now! Evil Jo [...]

- Well I have found one way to stop me from playing solitaire: replace the mouse batteries with dud ones so that I have to resort to the trackpad! As the laptop is resting on the OED to bring it to an ergonomic height (still waiting on Farv to build me a nice stand), [...]

- Happy month! Wished to you on, you know, the actual first of the month this time. Aren’t you lucky lucky people. And isn’t it amazing the number of things you can find to do rather than do work? As I need to toddle off to uni in a minute to get an assignment [...]

Jane bought pictionary. I bought a furry red nose and a grapefruit.
I don’t like zebras. Zebra’s are evil. They support Newcastle.

- It’s the last day of the month which means, among other things, a round up. Yipee! So, here goes:

Jobs quitted: One. So it was the only one I had, but it still counts! [...]
