Carved TMO on her clit just to make you feel bad

Friday. Friday 13th! has anything bad happened to you yet? That yet was meant to be quite threatening, actually. Was it? Do you feel threatened?

Wearing
A black suit. Durrr! The black suit is my Masky vans signature outfit. Boots which I wish were sandals. Bloody global warming.

Weekend
Dinner with someone I've never met before. But what I know off the internet. Been a while since I've done this sort of thing. Mostly I have properly met most of the people I like and know off of the internet.

Shopping. No Black! I will try very hard.

Not babysitting for my sister. No. Not at all.

Other/Miscellaneous
Reading recent purchase Pies and Prejudice. Liking Stuart Maconie.

Wearing - White shirt and pin striped trousers. Pretty much the same outfit I've been wearing to work for the last 7 years. Utterly bland.

Weekend - Quiet one, I think. No plans. I think maybe I've agreed to go to a museum exhibition or something while I was up against it on Gears of War and wasn't really paying attention to what I was being asked.

As for anything being bad on Friday 13th. Not directly, but the day's not over yet, and there's some things that are teteering on the brink of... well, not disaster, because it's difficult to have disasters in a job as beige as mine, but definitely teetering on the brink of minor irritation. The MD is looking like a man on the edge, though, getting really annoyed after a client ranted at him in the morning and the bloke responsible just hasn't bothered to come in. He walked round the office sounding off about it, and he clearly hasn't simmered down yet. He nearly went apopletic about people not using their voicemail - as a kind of displacement activity for his rage, he sent round a big complainy email about this. So. As I say. It may be just 90 minutes before home time on this Friday 13th, but there's everything left to play for.

hey, nice thread.

Wearing
jeans, brown adidas, black 'Mr. Lif' T-shirt

Weekend
Seeing El Topo tonight followed by one of those sit down things where a bloke interviews the director. A 'Q & A'. Looking forward to that, and it'll make a nice finale to the little film festival I've had this week. Probably on the piss on saturday with a friend. Sunday then will be lying around in the dark playing computer games. Same weekend I've been having for ten years.


Other/Miscellaneous

I had a chiabatta for lunch and there's white flour everywhere now.

I am really looking forward to this weekend. It all revolves around a wedding, but promises to be “good”.

First of all, I can start editing the video of the stag do we all went on to Amsterdam recently. I was in charge of shooting, and now I’m going to edit it, using some fancy software. I’ve got it all storyboarded in my head, with titles and an intro scene, theme music, and some crazy cuts, edits and mash-ups. I’m really looking forward to doing that.

Tonight is the groom’s last night of bachelorhood, so, er, all the lads, and his old man, are going down the boozer for a few pints. People are coming up from London citytown, so it should be slightly better than the usual crap Friday night down the pub.

Tomorrow I can carry on editing, and then go to the wedding and get drunk and stuff.

Am wearing the same shirt that I’m wearing in those meat photos from three years ago. Jesus. Moving like a foreigner. Smoking like a gitano.

Wearing
Long brown skirt with unfeasibly large amount of material, cerise long-sleeved t-shirt which makes my rack look massive, brocade birkenstocks, pained expression

Weekend
Drinking this evening, with colleagues and possibly friend of R's, though he now has a lurgy that may preclude activity. Though it's the same lurgy I had last week, and I managed. But you know what manflu is like. To family tomorrow, to see sis and nephews and try and be a good aunt and not get bitter about being barren.

Friday 13 misfortune
None, yet. Even the tube behaved this morning, getting from one place to the next without coming to a grinding, sweating halt in a metal tube 100m below the surface. Gah.

Other/miscellaneous
It is deathly quiet in here, despite boss being absent. What is wrong with young people today?

Back to my mum's. My sister's stint has ended and I am covering the weekend.

Other/Miscellaneous
I am eating a cheese sandwhich.

I have been tring to fill in my Personal Development Review Plan [Mad]
Can anyone think of how I might be 'supporting and increasing the equality and diversity of the college', and how I could increase my contribution in a quantifiable manner over a defined time?

Thanks!


This weekend...
...Tonight I am eating curry, which will be a harsh blow to 'operation make summer clothes fit', then pottering about tommorrow. In the evening I am going to a party, which will hopefully not be too crowded as I haven't invited anyone yet. Hah!
If I am alive on Sunday I will take my brother out for dinner as he has been spinning me sob stories about eating nothing but noodles and frozen vege.

I was on my way to the shower when I realised I was hungry. Hence the cheese sandwhich, which I am finsihing as I type.

Soon I will be wearing a large, fluffy towel.

I do like to wander around in the buff, I admit.

Wearing

Fuschia-pink collared cotton shirt with 3/4 sleeves. Black trousers. Black 3" heeled shoes.

Weekend

Picking some National bets tomorrow morning. Hair cut and colour tomorrow afternoon. Summer beers somewhere later.

Sunday - gardening, no doubt. Admiring my daffodils. General slobbing. Maybe some shopping, for food or other. Blockbuster DVD-watching, perhaps.

Friday the 13th

Nada, zip, zilch. I am starving but without food, which could be considered unfortunate I suppose. Sam's tales of naked cheese sanger-eating aren't really helping, it has to be said.

Abby, you've reminded me. I will also be applying for a job, right at the last minute, as ever, which includes the stipulation to demonstration 'an understanding of the importance of diversity in arts marketing'. What? How does anyone answer questions like that?

I suppose it means you have to understand that people don't get much of a feeling of being cool and hip when all the records and books they buy have "3 for 2" printed on them.

Hey, Dang, do you want to be on the telly? I just randomly got this:

Channel 4 is looking for a family to take part in a documentary series. They should be prepared to share their lives and show the nation what it means to be a family in Britain today. The producers of the documentary are particularly interested in busy families with three or more children still living at home.

The aim is to document what makes a family tick, how they relate to each other and how they pull together to get through whatever life throws at them.

If you would like further information, please contact Sarah Rubin at Firefly Film and Television Productions. sarahrubin@fireflyproductions.tv


You should apply, sowe can all beak at your life.

Wearing: Bathrobe, having just emerged from the shower to check my email prior to heading off to do yet more home hardware shopping. This is what moving house does to you - it is endless.

Weekend: Building two HTML newsletters for a client who likes impressing their customers. If the weather is as nice as it is today I will be doing this at the garden table while Nightowl continues with her design of the garden. Will probably end up getting a pizza.

Friday the 13th Misfortunes. Nothing so far, save for the electricity bill. Ugh.

It's a chocolate bar with a white, creamy filling.

Mr Sam buys them for himself and I eat them. I wish he'd buy himself something I liked but what can you do?

The restaurant I am going to hasn't got the decency to have their menu online. This is frustrating me.
