Tremble and Despair for I am Power.

I love this book, I really do. I’ve just finished Magician and it was a really good read…again. I’m gonna start the next one and work through the entire series over the coming weeks.

I’m still pretty pissed off and somewhat upset with a number of things BUT I am going to enjoy my weekend and not worry about any of it.

The day started pretty well, got some good news from Iain. He went in to have his eyes lasered up this morning so he does not have to wear glasses again and while yes he got a lot of teasing about lasers and eyes its a fucking scary thought and I can’t ever see myself going through something like that voluntarily especially given the fact that your awake and only slightly drugged when they run a laser into your goddamn eye. But anyway the good news is that it all went fine and he can see properly already and I’m somewhat relieved 🙂

I have some plans for the weekend. They are very simple plans but I like the idea a lot. It will be quite similar to last weekend. I’m going to go and collect some comics and I’m going to go to blockbuster and pick a couple of popcorn movies and stay at home and enjoy them. I’m thinking about going to that pizza place nearby that I found a while ago and love and having a nice dinner. I might hit town aswell and have a look in the comic shops for anything of interest.

Scrap all the above. I have just noticed that Signs is out in the cinema and I’ll have to see that at some stage over the weekend.

Lets see some other random stuff:

There is a thread going on over at the WEF about Bond and there is a concept in there which I really like. James Bond, just like 007 is a code name for an agent. Throughout the years there have been many Bonds, when one retires the name is passed along. It would work really well, it would also explain why the name James Bond is so well known and strikes fear into the heart of evil doers or something along those lines….

This site isn’t for the easily offended and will probably make more sense to those in the UK but Think of the Children is rather funny in a wrong kinda way.

So…

I’m pretty pissed off. Mainly with myself to be quite honest. That is not to say I’m not annoyed with a number of people but its mainly with myself. I so could have and should have handled this afternoon better. That does not mean I don’t stand behind what I said but I could have said it better and dealt with it better.

I don’t know how I’ll feel about this in a few days when I’ve actually had some time to think about it, but I’m not proud of or happy with this project. I don’t think anyone should ever get to see it. Fuck it 🙁

On whole other notes, tonight was my team-mates birthday so we hit the pub. There was a few of us and a good night was had by all. A couple of pints was consumed but an early night for me anyway. I’m just so tired all I want to do is stay in bed for the weekend and let the world pass me by.

Its all just a fucking load of bollocks. I wish I was qualified to actually go out and get another job.

Iain’s contributions to the days humour.

Q: Why is air a lot like sex?
A: Because it’s no big deal unless you’re not getting any.

Q: What’s the difference between sin and shame?
A: It’s a sin to put it in, but it’s a shame to pull it out.

oh and

god damn it. I am not going to give anyone my password for any reason. Well done you thick motherfuckers you can read a list of email address and spam them. For fuck sake don’t you have anything better to do with your time? Fucking little 10 year olds learn to use a damn spellcheck for fuck sake. Pricks.

Stop fucking emailing me. I’m getting really fed up of deleting the emails.

*sigh* no comics, went out for a drink instead. It seemed like a good idea at the time and it probably was but…

Can we stop the world for a few days so I can just ignore everything and not have to worry about anything?

I think I need some new comics. I want more Daredevil, might break down and spend the £20 on Elektra: Assasin. Planetary/JLA Terra Oculta is out tonight and I’m looking forward to reading that a lot. Not sure if there is anything else major but I’m looking forward to finding out.

*sigh*
