Me?
I've been having the best time of my life. Got me a wonderful, wonderful girlfriend. Going travelling in Canada with her next year - booked the plane tickets yesterday. Guitar playing is going well, also got a job shelf stacking at Morrisons (or Safeways if you can't handle change... like me) to get money for the upcoming trip. It's hilariously easy and I'm getting paid for it.
Yeah, pretty fantastic over in Mr. Worm land.

Yeah, and I do home you're traveling through Canada in the summer, or else even the moose will be buried in snow.
I've had a rough start of the semester, but it's the kind of tough from which I'll learn. I also am one of those people who believes he goes through tough periods for a reason. I'm optimistic that way.
This weekend my wife visits some friends from college, so I have my kids on my own. If anyone would like to babysit...

Sure no problem RA, Do you have an Xbox / Playstaion? That's funny, because my kids, as they get older, are getting into videogames. We have Playstation 1. However, the kids' grandmother told them she would get them Playstation 3 for Christmas...so come on over for the holidays, Colin.

Yeah, it sort of... just happened. Turns out she feels the same way. We were spending more time together planning the Canada trip (actually going in February... poor moose) and it became apparent how we felt. Yeah, so one thing led to another (as they say).
So... how have you been, Liesbet? Colin?

Aww for wormy and Liesbet. And I'll babysit for you, RA, children like me. This fact is occasionally worrying for me, and I can't work out why, but it's true.
In other news, I love my job! Love love love. We're having a sale, and I was caught looking through our bondage section by the manager, who told me that since they had so much, I could just take whatever I wanted. So today I earned a decent wage, and took home about £100 worth of leather in the form of a complete set of emerald suede cuffs (wrist, ankle, collar), some purple suede wrist cuffs and a rather dandy black restraint collar that terrifed the life out of my friend Mark who met me after work.
I've just talked myself out of a babysitting job, haven't I?

Well, there are times when both babysitters and small children should show some restraint, just, er, not the purple suede kind Have fun with those, wooly!

Note: Apologies, I seem to have made a rather long post, believe me when I say there isn't much of interest in it, and you won't miss much by not reading. I've had a pretty good couple of days/week... My parents came to see me on Tuesday, which meant I got taken out for breakfast, and lunch (Carvery goodness, hmm.... ), and we went bowling, which was fun, even if both my parents beat me, and they gave me some Percy Pigs. Yesterday I went to London, for a Work Placement Careers fair with my friend Millie. We got there at about Midday (after an early National Express coach, and the London Underground, which I still love.), and were actually done by about 1.30, which was maybe a bit quicker than expected, but it was very useful all the same, even if the CV clinic I wanted to go to was closed. After that we went to the pub, of course, and then wandered around London (well, along the Thames, somewhere near the London Eye), and failed to actually do much (we did have plans to go to either the Aquarium, Zoo or Museums) other than pop in the odd pub here and there, still, it was nice. Later we sneakily watched Millie's bf play 5-a-side football, sneakily cause she was under the impression that he might be put off if he saw her there. He was pretty good, but the rest of his team sucked, especially the keeper. I also had to endure the pressure of returning a stray ball from another court, you know, where you have to throw it over a high fence, and if it doesn't go over you look like a twat, anyway, I kept my cool and succeeded, so we went and celebrated with a pint, while we waited for her bf to finish and meet us. After he met us, we got on the tube and headed to a jazz bar/pub called Spice of Life near Leicester sq tube station (or more accurately, seeing as I've bothered to look it up, on Romilly St, in the Soho area apparently), for dinner, drinks and live music. The music was pretty good, someone called Derek Nash and the Sax Appeal Quartet, it was especially impressive as their normal Pianist had dropped out (to play somewhere else), and they had managed to get someone else to play last minute, who had no previous knowledge of a lot of the songs, but was awesome all the same. It quickly became apparent though that Derek (who plays Sax) wanted to be the star of the show, and got a bit annoyed when the pianist and guitarist wandered off some of the songs in a bit of a jam, fantastic to watch though. Today we mostly just slept on the coach back (although we were entertained by the Scottish Guy driving for a while, who was irritated by other traffic), and I think I shall probably get an early night before work tomorrow (although knowing me I won't actually manage that). Oh, and I want to go see Spamalot.

i give use 3 weeks until we all fall out over 1/ smoking in communal areas 2/ washing up or 3/people who never do any cleaning. You should also add 4/ Purchasing of Communal Food or Theft of people's food, it seems Bread and Milk are the top 2 to fall out on in that category, oh and 5/ Buying Toilet Roll

We already buy our own milk and bread, though at first we were buying our own milk... well thats whhat half of us thought but not the other half. what we're doing with toilet roll is when we run out someone goes round the corner to the wholesalers and buys like 40 rolls for £5, when they run out (which is really fast) someone else does, only when everyone has done this will a problem occur. But currently we have 100ish rolls of bog paper in the house. But we use about 3 rolls a day... oh my I did figure out how many rolls we'll use a year.. but i forget.
Today im goign to clean the bathroom, because noone has and weve been here a month, and its gross. I've been told im not allowed to make a rota, but i so totally will. and people will hate me. because theyre lazy.

You use 3 toilet rolls a day? How many people do you live with? Are some people eating it?
