Hey Everyone

Away from TV.com:

- Some news about my job situation . The answer to whether my job is going to last until September stands squarely on the decision of the woman who the person who I'm covering is covering, of whether she intends to return to work at rhe end of June. That decision was supposed to be made over 3 weeks ago . But. being the nice people they are, my department has extended my contract from finishing at the beginning of June, to finishing at the beginning of July . Which means, if things dont work out, I only need to find work for 2 and half months before I go to Uni . Although I am still annoyed at the fact that whether I'm staying or going still hasn't been decided yet .

- Also at work, I had a free health check . I kinda was a bit nervous about what the results might've been , but it turns out that I'm totally fine , and my colestoral level is a surprisingly healthy 3.1 , which I'm kinda amazed at, considering how much cr@p I eat, LOL . So Yaayy!! Go healthy me .

- I went to a 60th birthday party . No bouncy castle at this party, lol . But they did decide to get a game of lawn cricket going in the garden, and one of the batsmen managed to accidentilly wallop the ball straight into a lady's crotch, haha , thank goodness we were only using Tennis Balls, LOL .

- I went and saw my niece perform in a musical .

- I went to the cinema again! . And this time it wasn't by myself, LOL . We saw Star Trek . And it was pretty awesome . We also saw it in an IMAX cinema, which I've never done before, and we saw the first public screening of the film aswell . So overall, it was a pretty awesome day .

- We finally got wireless internet access in our house . Which also means I finally got my Wii conected to the net aswell . So if anybody ever fancies playing against me online, feel free to PM me, and we can exchange friend codes .

- I managed to catch one of my fingers in a door when I closed it , and now my finger's all bruised and achy .

Fiiiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrsttttttttt! Wow, I haven't been first in like forever! "being the nice people they are"... I sense a little bit of sarcasm there. I hope they make that work decision soon. The sooner you know the better. Haha, go healthy you. That lawn cricket game sounds like a lot of fun...for guys! I'm glad I wasn't the "lady". Were you the guy who walloped the ball in her crotch? I have the feeling it was. Yay for wireless internet connection. Your finger's still achy? Aww, I'm sorry. Which finger is it btw?

Are you telling me that you went to a birthday party and there wasn't a bouncy castle? Blasphemy! Sacrilege!

I wish I had a Wii. Might get one sometime in the not so recent future (meaning I have no clue).

I just got a job! About time. Spent 6 months searching and I finally got one! Good luck on keeping on with your job and finding a new one.

Anna: Congrats . *gives anna a chocolate for commenting first" . Actually not as much as you might have thought . Same too . I think a lot of the guys were happy they weren't her either, LOL. Nah not me , I'm not exactly that good with a cricket bat . Indeed . It's alright, I'm dealing with it , and it's the middle finger on my left hand .

Yagr: Damn straight, it nearly caused a riot, lol . You should definately get one, sometime in the not so recent future. LOL . Congrats , I hope it works out well . Thanks , in truth, I've probably got enough money in the bank for me to survive without a job till I go to Uni , but it would be nice to hold onto a job in the city, just for a bit of comfortable continuity .

Hi Leo! Your 60? Unexpected. And Star Trek was amazing. The job thing is happening to a lot of people. And I'm not surprised it is happening in the UK. My Wii is broken so.. (sensor) The Verve is amazing! Sorry about your finger, that happened to me with a car door a while back. Guitar Hero is amazing! I need to get World Tour though. lol. Glad you had a decent May. (plus you might of forgotten the section in which you say what you did on the website but w/e.)

Hi Leo! That's great news about your job. Maybe instead of look for a job that lasts 2 1/2 months, you could just take an extended vacation before school. Yay for being healthy.. you cheated the system. LOL at the party! Also be glad that a guy wasn't hit. I'm sure the 60-year-old will get a bouncy castle when he/she turns 65. Which musical was it and what did she play? I saw Star Trek yesterday!!! *high fives* Have an awesome June!

Tristan: LOL, he was 60, not me, haha. I'm 29 . They definate;y did a good job of it . Yeah the job situation is definately quite a bummer , hopefully things will slowly start to get better while I'm at Uni though . I'm sorry that your Wii broke , I hope you're able to get it fixed soon ' They're pretty awesome aren't they . It's alright, it'll fix itself eventually , I'm sorry that it happened to you too . I agree , you definately have to , I'm finally gonna get the drum controller next month, lol. Thanks , and well I didn't actually have anything major in that section to write about this time, so I left it out .

Ivy: Thank you . It has been suggested, but I think I'd rather have the money, LOL . Yay indeed, and yeah I think that's only logical explanation, LOL . Oh we were definately glad, Haha. I reckon so too, LOL. It was a cut down version of 3 musicals: Annie, Oliver Twist, and Cats, and she played an orphan and a cat . Go us *high fives*. I hope you have an awesome June too

Yay for healthiness! I hope that you can keep your job or at least find out soon. Uni is almost there, isn't it? And boy, you must have a whole room just packed with all your DVDs and CD's. I am amazed! Great song by the way. Enjoy your Sunday!!
Posted May 31, 2009 5:34 am PT
Ela: Yay indeed . I hope so too , I'd really like to keep hold of it till at least the beginning of September . Less than 4 months, I'm so excited . Well a fair part of it is anyway, LOL. I agree . I hope you enjoy your sunday too .

Wow sounds like a full month..! Sooo cool about the wii! I'll PM you! poor finger.. ouch!!!

About the purchases: seems like a lot of great movies.. but Britney? really?!?!? looool
Posted May 31, 2009 11:57 pm PT
Yeah I guess it does . You have a Wii too . Yaayy !! . Yeah , but I think it's slowly getting better .

Well I like to get a nice range of titles . Some of her songs are okay , although I know it seems strange, that me being a straight guy, buying her "greatest hits" DVD would've made more sense, LOL .

WOW! Very busy and full, i have been so busy i started UNI aswell and work, it's so hard to make free time. -- I watched Star Trek, it sure was awesome, You bought pretty awesome stuff!
Posted Jun 1, 2009 2:51 am PT
Busy but fun , well apart from the bit when I got my finger trapped in a door . I'm not surprised, they're both pretty major commitments. Just try to make sure you still have time left to enjoy the more fun parts of Uni . It sure was . Thanks .
