Ric-Rac: Whiplash challenge - knitting meltdown
Embroidery and Sewing at Knitting-and.com
Nonononono! 2007-07-17 13:33:29 aqua bear cd mem I just knew this would happen (mirror), what possible purpose does it gain. Now I can’t go on any website for fear of finding out what happens, I’m going to have to go back into real life to avoid spoilers. I refuse to download it, even visit any site distributing it or mentioning Harry Potter until I have my hands on an official English copy who’d want the dirty American version anyway, what with its miss spellings and all. The last 3 books have been stolen from the publishers by bent security guards - why would the last and final book be any different!
I made yummy brownies this afternoon. mmm.

(I’m on the left :)!)
I was finally invited to Oceana on Wednesday! It was brilliant, possibly the biggest club I’ve ever been in! Its a converted cinema, it was nice to see they left some of the original features from the cinema which was quite old when it was sold. They built an Odeon cinema in a massive complex next door to replace it. Its amazing how many people have heard of Oceana, even people from Canterbury go! Its in Kingston btw.
The ball room was fantastic - I’ve never been on a dance floor that crowded, which isn’t necessarily a good thing. Why is it that dirty old men don’t get the message?
First there’s the hands on hips, and stepping to the right or left to avoid them whilst avoiding eye contact, this is the pretend its not happening phase if this fails and the gropage occurs, this should result in a handbag in the face or chest, or in some cases a high heel on toe (or higher..) still avoiding eye contact, then they
A small amount of HP and Jobhunting. 2007-07-23 11:50:07 aqua bear cd mem I spent this weekend reading Harry Potter, I wont spoil it don’t worry! Theres nothing more infuriating than being told what happens! I can’t wait until everyone’s read it though and I can actually talk about it! I’m pretty pleased that nearly all my predictions came true after I read the last book! The first death in this one is the absolute worst though but anyway I shall stop there!
I’m incredibly bored at the moment, I’ve been trying for over 2 months to get a job. I never told the story of reed the employment agency did I? Its marginally interesting. Two weeks before I went to Canada I gave in a hard copy of my CV and emailed a copy, I was told I’d receive an email when I was registered, so off I went merrily on holiday. I return and having had no contact I decide to go into the shop to ask what happened, this is now four weeks after I handed in two CV’s. I was told that I had missed registration and that basically
Woo! Theres something wrong with me! 2007-07-24 11:20:27 aqua bear cd mem For the last 7 years I’ve had knee problems, I was told that if I continued doing Duke of Edinburgh (walking up mountains) I’d end up in a worse state, but I did it, and well yeah, I was in a right state after 3 mountains - but that man was evil so I wanted to do it to prove him wrong.
Last year a sharp pain in my hip added to my problems (chronic headaches over which I have no control being the other major one) it was so painful and spread all down my right leg it quickly got to the point where I had trouble sleeping, even walking on some days because the pain was so bad. Pain killers haven’t worked for me since I lived on nice strong prescribed ones for my headaches a few years ago.
So today I went along today to a nice hospital where I’ve spent far too much time. I have a vivid memory of someone looking up my nose there. I think that was the neurologist but I digress. The surgeon was great and thankfully I don’t need surgery! I’v Read more:something

Perhaps I should word things more carefully? 2007-07-28 13:40:20 aqua bear cd mem Here’s a nice screen shot of my reinvigorate stat’s, perhaps I should word things
more carefully in the future?!
I’m still looking for authors for femgeek. I think I opened it at the wrong time, the internet’s heart doesn’t seem to be in it, or is it just mine? I’m just a bit stuck for inspiration at the moment, I’m not really doing anything during the day, except watch Sharpe so I’ve nothing to talk about.
Those of you reading this on my feed you might want to click through to see the changes I’ve made to my theme. I’ve also updated my about page tell me if you like the changes? Do you want to know more/less?

Philosopher Stone Cookies and My new Project. 2007-07-26 10:36:56 aqua bear cd mem Seeing as its the end of the Harry Potter books I decided to make some celebratory (or not so depending on your feelings towards Harry!) sugar!
I bought a cookie mix in Sainsburies the otherday so I made PhilosopherStoneCookies
. That is, Normal cookie mixture from any recipe with a teaspoon of Red food colouring added. (add more for an even longer life!) You could use green and make lily pads for chocolate frogs if you wanted too!
Some of you may know i’ve been working on a project for the past few days, a massive thank you goes out to the guys over at Snark! for their help and hopefully contributions !
femgeek.co.uk is a group blog with a girly touch. If your interested in writing for femgeek just read this and sign up! Don’t forget to join the forums too!
I hasten to say that guys can post too! I just wanted to get some pink in there and to write about girly things other group blogs don’t have as well as normal geeky things too.

I joined the bandwagon. 2007-07-31 00:00:00 aqua bear cd mem Yes, I Simpsonized myself! Its um well, It thought I had short hair so I had to correct it on that!
In case you hadn’t noticed I’m doing everything in my power to blog everyday, at least for this week!
Cleaning 2007-07-30 00:00:57 aqua bear cd mem Being a strange combination of hoarder and obsessive compulsive my personality is sometimes at odds. As a result I spend hours at a time reorganising my entire wardrobe. My style being take it all out and put it all back in in virtually the same way.
I hate clutter, I hate it, if my room is a mess the simple solution to my problem is that I don’t sleep in it. Unfortunately that plan is kind of scuppered now because the spare room where I’d usually sleep is full of all my crap from university which is making my mother absolutely insane and I wont sleep in the other spare room because thats where my grandma used to sleep when she came to stay and it reminds me too much of her. (the other spare room is my dads study).
Today I decided to tidy my room *again* I do like unearthing random things. The brochure I won from Rhys in some competition he ran a while ago being one thing.
How about a woolly hat and scarf someone knitted for me when I was little? which I s Read more:Cleaning

My new feature is Photo Friday. I’ve decided to take down my photoblog at apricot13.org and post my photos here instead. I plan to turn a13 into a portfolio, which it is at the moment but I don’t like it, so its changing. I’m so fussy!
Dont download from here! 2007-08-02 05:11:08 aqua bear cd mem Don’t download wordpress/joomla themes from here. They contain hidden spam/malware links! via [link]
Meeting more Royalty 2007-08-02 00:00:48 aqua bear cd mem Indeed I’m off to meet more Royalty on the 24th of October. I did the bronze, silver and gold levels of the duke of Edinburgh’s award and I recieved my invite this morning to go to St James’ palace and meet Prince Philip, the duke of Edinburgh!
I’m really excited. Gold DofE was probably the hardest most painful thing I’ve ever done but it was worth it if only to rack up my count of how many Royals I’ve met lol ! I met prince Edward a few years ago in Guildford for a Young Enterprise event. It was all exciting although it doesn’t quite beat my parents who’ve met the Queen herself!
Reading through the letter though its quite a strict affair, afternoon dress must be worn, hats aren’t required! You also have to bring two forms of identification, a photographic one as well as one with your address on it! Annoyingly its on a Wednesday so I have to come all the way home from Canterbury in the middle of the week. Thank
Remember This. 2007-08-01 00:00:54 aqua bear cd mem I know mydeathspace.com is old but reading this article made me decide it. When I’m long gone I want a domain registered as my memorial.
I’ll have a nice forum where people can bitch about me and a photo gallery of me being a drunken tit in my teenage years, getting married just out of university, having children before i’m 30 and dying with my telegram from the queen at age 100+.
I’ve got it all planned out, but it wont be happening for a long time yet . I wonder what my domain name will be?

Some links. 2007-08-04 00:00:19 aqua bear cd mem Ever wondered how much your blog is worth? No, me neither, but you can find out anyway here. I want to hear how you all fare (I’ve already looked some of you up to satisfy my competitive nature!)
eruANNA is worth $4,120 and apricot13.org - $1,504. I wont list femgeek as its only a n00b.
In other news Rhys has launched a new project fair-review which is pretty brilliant, not only does it help the little guy but it gives the big guys a kick in the teeth for being such money grabbing greedy bastards. *ahem* Why not join in and review eruanna.net You might also find some decent blogs through it too, I don’t know about you but I’m finding it increasingly hard to find genuinely good blogs.
I’ve also closed down the blog at femgeek, I wasn’t into it anyway but the forums are still there as i’m rather fond of them. I’ve also decided to migrate this blog over there eventually. I need a domain that reflects me - even though I’ Read more:links

Scary Coincidence 2007-08-08 00:00:52 aqua bear cd mem Yesterday I had a great conversation with a fellow femgeek from uni, it was just sending links to each other we only really speak gibberish to each other. Then the scariest thing happened - we sent each other the same link of the same video but on different sites at exactly the same time!
Just look at the time stamp, it was at exactly the same time according to my chat logs!
