I was just googling about vacations to Easter Island or the south pacific. God, can you imagine how fantastic that would be?

I am feeling good as well. I am considerably buoyed up by my new infatuation... man does having someone new to focus on wipe the slate clean!

I have wanted to start a somewhat self-serving thread about this but haven't for several reasons. 1) It is self-serving. 2) I just met this person recently and it is too early to think anything will develop. 3) I don't really know him yet, and worry about being all excited just because he's cute and makes me feel good. 4) I should be able to feel good all on my own and not rely on someone else's presence.

But screw it, I feel better than I have in months! Too bad I won't be seeing him for several days because I'm going away for the weekend, though. That should be fun as well, get to see my brother and get out of the city. Actually I have lots of reasons to be happy. Yay!

My day...hmmmm...went to the park in the morning, went to the shops in the afternoon. Spent far too much on the Internet. Spoke to friends on phone. It's been okay, but not great.

I handed in a preliminary draft of an article I've been ignoring for far too long; it's in my boss's hands right now.

I installed Visual C++ so I could do some WORK. And then I went to buy caffeine to boost my productivity (ha ha ha) and ended up buying the NME (why?) and reading that instead, and now I've wasted two hours reading today's ILE, and I have no idea where the rest of the day went (oh, I think it went playing all the games that come with Windows XP - yay, at last I have Pinball!), and I still haven't done any work, and I should've started it 18 months ago. Oops. I am not here. Shout at me.

I have had a day. But it's better than a bad day.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 15 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I have had a terrible day, but I wouldn't wish one on anyone else. My mother thinks I am an ungrateful wretch for not wanting to spend my entire Thanksgiving break sleeping on floors in her relatives' houses and that I am utterly self-centered for wanting to go out with my friends beforehand. Argh! It's supposed to be a vacation! (Warning: this has been a non-objective, very biased post

My day looked set to be shite and in fact was OK. Little constructive achieved (aside from setting up ILE Awards with inevitable attendant joys and pains) but future debauchery planned (Friday / December / Easter). GOLF WAS AVOIDED. Drinking with workmates proved bearable despite extended comparison of female client pulchritude by balding/deformed/begutted thirtysomethings. Also it turns out I am the youngest on 'the team' which makes me feel marginally less jaded if only for an evening.

Stumble over to work after heavy night of drinking and romancing.
Walk in to see entire office playing X-box games.
Go with friends to really good Japanese restaurant.
Walk over to experimental music store, Wall Of Sound records. I buy a Climax Golden Twins CD in front of a Climax Golden Twin who's the clerk. He calls me a sucker for buying it. I tell him I don't recognize him outside his spandex-n-glitter stage fare.
Go back to work.. people are still playing X-box games. I'm typing this right now.

I have had a totally shite day and spent most of it asleep, which is why I'm wide awake at 2:47. And some bastard outbid me at the very last minute and won an Ebay auction, damn it.

― DG, Thursday, 15 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I hate when that happens, DG. You need a plate of freshly baked cookies and a hug.

I have been falling asleep most of the day, I can't really give an opinion on it either way.

I had a shite day yesterday. 49% of the staff in my office are being made redundant and the first lot were sent home yesterday. This is the third round of redundancies this year and I *want* to be made redundant, but it is highly unlikely. Also, our Q3 bonus is going to be half what we were expecting - they tell us this two weeks before pay day. Also, for five minutes, I thought I was getting a flight to San Fransisco for £99 but they'd sold out. And when I got home, Nick made me watch the Villa! OK, that last bit wasn't so bad and there was a minging girl on it and all the boys had big ears, which made us laugh. As for today... I had sliced banana on my muesli this morning as a special treat. It will probably be the highlight of the next 24 hours. But there are children starving in Africa etc. so mustn't grumble etc.

Negotiated 10% off impending print bill due to errant ink splotches on some copies. Spent long hours scanning photos from last weekend’s sex expo for next issue of mag. Sped like fuXor down motorway to get home for meeting w/ girl I wanna get nude in mag. Message on machine – meeting cancelled. FuXoR! Rescheduled meeting for Saturday. Went to gym. Decided I wanna fuck two girls who were there; posted odds-in-head of 90% and 20% respectively on mutuality of that thought. Dined. Procrastinated on net instead of working (current status). Dull but somewhat productive day = yay!

AP - how do you get girls nude in your magazine? Perhaps we should consider a WI-style* nude ILE calendar.

*WI = Women's Institute for those not from these isles - famously conservative institution for women d'une certain age where they discuss sewing patterns, knit, organise fundraisers, drink tea etc. Two years ago they thought "sod that" and put out a calendar featuring a nude WI member for each month. Imagine the Pirelli calendar after a catastrophic puncture. Anyway, last year they sold 60,000 calendars in the States. WTF?

Can I be ILE French grammar monitor? Pwease?

― Madchen, Friday, 16 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Today is already starting to suX0r because I thought since I had the day off I could sleep in, but my cat thinks there's something wrong and I'm late for work so he hit me in the face til I got up. Remind me again why I like cats?

― Nicole, Friday, 16 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

MArk - it would be more like the Ambridge* men nude calendar - much mentioned but never seen.

*for non-Radio 4 listeners, Ambridge is the setting for the Archers, a soap opera concerning the 'everyday lives of country folk' with strangely addictive properties.

I am having a boring day, as they mostly are these days. Woke up, answered some email, got in trouble for some IL* posts, then walked down to the River Lea or Lee, wrote a song on the walk home and was very disappointed cause when I was walking, it sounded like Suede with loads of great glam descends all over it, but as soon as I sat down with the guitar, it sounded like shite girly pop again. Poo. Now I'm back on the internet and trying to round up friends to go to a "Neo-Weimar" club with me tonight to alleve the boredom of my mundane existence.

― Ugly Wife, Friday, 16 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Neo-Weimar"! Heh! Sounds great! Explain the concept a little more... my day = wake up. Feel yuck due to solo drinking-at-home (midori, gin and BEER) for a little while. Sleep some more. Realise I am late. Rush and actually make my train cheers cheers! Come to work. Blah. Look at my boots and feel happy. Crunch loudly on crisps (sorry co- workers!) and wish it was 5. Oh god it's only 1.30. I'm so bored and haffn't even won TWENTY NICKER from my crisps. Come on, I buy enough of you for Ptees sake! I'm bored. And the only friend who would go drinking at lunch with me is on holiday in ha ha York. Hmph.
