I am a cloud

Another Friday night drinking cocktails, but rather fortunate and mildly amusing in places. A free drink with our meal beacause they arrived late, two for one cocktails all night and flyers for the club found on the floor meaning £2 entry! Bonus. This meant however that all today was good for was a spot of cloud watching.

Oh, and drinking yet more cocktails at a friend’s before getting an early night ready for a Sunday at work. Yes, work on a Sunday.

Tap Dance!

Although by the time you’ve made it up the what feels like 10 flights of stairs you really don’t feel like doing anything other than rest. It was a close call tonight. As I was very nearly the only one that turned up it was on the verge of being cancelled! Thankfully the other lady arrived just on time, but I feel a rrecruitment drive is on order. Anyone interested?

Mmm jam on toast. I have no idea why I always thought I didn’t like jam. It’s ace!

And a night at home

So, after logging into my 1&1 account I remind myself of all the domain names I’ve purchased and never done anything with, or as is quite often the case started but never finished. The question is do I get rid or do I attempt to do something with them? I can’t help but shout at myself ‘STOP BEING SO LAZY!’ But is it all just bright ideas?

Another day at the office

Filed under: Day to Day, work

I wore a dress – to bed

So the ball was a good laugh as always. Good singing and dancing fun, with the macarena thrown in for good measure.

Slightly miffed when I woke up on my sofa at half 8 in the morning, still wearing my dress and tights. All of the lights were on, and I hadn’t unbuckled my shoes before removing them. The weird part is my bed is actually easier to get to than my sofa! Needless to say I spent the rest of my day on the sofa.

Red wine headaches hurt.

Balloons are fun times

Enough said I feel.

Result

Friday! And the day before the ball. A quick trip to TK Maxx proves rather fruitful, with ten minutes to spare before closing. Result.

Followed up with a lovely trip to Beeston pubs.

Well, this really sucks

Returned home to be greeted by one of my Threadless shipments. It’s true what they say, buy once and you’ll be addicted. I’ve yet to photograph myself in a tee to get a few $s off my order. I really should. I should also take myself off the mailing list! Reprint today of ‘well, this really sucks’ tee. It’s scrabble. AND it’s brown. I ordered one. I’m very, very poor.

Something else that I really shouldn’t do is buy any more cameras. Though I want to. I just hope I sleep better tonight.

Cinderella

So it’s getting ever so close to the ball on Saturday, as yet I still have no dress. Last night I went to Next Clearance, alas they have no changing rooms so no luck there (I didn’t want to part with cash without at least trying it on first!) I did go to Outfit at lunch today and tried on 5, none of which ticked all the boxes in my eyes. Seriously, how hard can it be to find a long, ball worthy, black dress?

These two are possibilities [photos to follow].

Ok, so neither are long or black but there really wasn’t any in the whole shop. Suitable for a ball? The main difference as far as I’m concerned was the price. Either £60 or £45.

The day was finished off rather nicely with the first tap lesson of the term. Me thinks I need to work on my timestep however. Will the neighbours approve I wonder?

Oh and I got myself a pro flickr account, go me! And I enetered the Holgapalooza contest.
