Will it interfere with the production of the gothicusmaximus pin up poster book?

I love organizing stuff. Can't understand why more people aren't anarchist.

They aren't well informed about anarchy?

What are you talking about? There are plenty of anarchist. Ya know, all you have to do is go to your nearest mall and buy something with a jagged red circle A on it and there ya go.

By the way, I saw something once that you'd get a kick out of. There's actually a brand of sunglasses called Anarchy. On the glass case it said "ANARCHY $45.00"

I lold.

Save for a few really shitty bands, this is one of the best line-ups I've seen in a long, long time.
Somebody ought to be kind enough to send me to France next weekend with $200 Euros, eh?

Some of the Physalis seeds I planted have sprouted! I have 8 so far which is actually slightly worrying as they grow into a smallish tree about 4 foot high and 3 4 foot across. I'll have to foist them upon friends and relatives if they all grow well O.O

Still, lots of fruit for me in a couple of years They're bloody expensive in the shops, over a quid for a little punnet!

Siouxsie - No it was a different one from way earlier than that, from pretty much the beginning ( longish hair ..DROOOOOOLL) . I'd show you but photobucket is being a bastard.

Fuck me, we've bcome an aiviary! My brother was getting some stuff out of the attic for mother, and we suddenly heard this really loud CHEEPCHEEP! . Now, we've had birds nest in the loftspace in past years but we got the hole blocked up so we were a bit puzzled as to where it was coming from, but then we heard the CHEEPCHEEP again really loudly and realised there was a bird in mother's bedroom !

She's got the bloody windows wide open. My mother likes birds but she's terribly arfraid of their wings flapping, so she had a complete shitfit and barricaded herself into the spare room.

Turns out it was a fledgling female blackbird that's been hanging round our garden. reckon she'd got onto the shed roof and then fluttered through the window. She was on top of the wardrobe and went ballistic when she saw me, ended up flapping behind father's nightlamp . I nabbed her and chucked her in a corner under a bush up the garden, and got shouted at and generally abused by the male blackbird for manhandling his errant chick!

No she's definitely alive. She fluttered over the fence into next door's garden and I can hear her right now cheeping to be fed. We don't have many cats round here and she can get as high as the upstairs windows ( which is how she got in ) so she should be fine.

This is the pair's second clutch of chicks. They had the first clutch in our garden very successfully, I followed their progress from the nest building to fledging. They've moved to the tall bushes of next doors now and seem to have been very successful again.

Do forgive me, dear assorted, but I have a live-journal.
On this thing, I usually just post day to day life- theme parks, sexual encounters, bdsm, defrosting the fridge, work issues- but occasionally post things slightly more individual, political or just unrelated to my daily course of events.

Today, in between descriptions of defrosting the fridge, I explained how I use different personalities and characters within my own head as a means of filing and looking through different situations- instead of getting confused with myself, this allows me to sit down and have a mental argument with a different face that's been put on one of my conflicting opinions. And I'm now having to explain the difference between deliberately constructed 'invisible friend' style facets of the mind to use as reflections and secondary opinions of issues, and the 'dumping ground' for emotional issues it's being branded as.

I have created the voices in my head on purpose, they are clearly defined and individual things, far too clearly arranged to be a dumping ground, and held in considerably better control than that term would imply.
They're the mental pretty face on a filing cabinet for thought processes, and not, as one person has suggested, likely to be dangerous.



Unrelated to all that, I went to Thorpe Park at the weekend and did all the rollercoasters, and did some of them twice! The new Saw (movie) themed ride's really good. They could maybe have done more with it, but as a ride it's definitely very well put together. And we got to do Colossus twice, which was the world's first ever ten loop rollercoaster. It is fantastic, I love it, and the horizontal corkscrew at the end for those last four loops is a delicious exercise in weightlessness.
I do love things that go fast and at alarming angles to the ground in a non-fatal manner.

I now have a new(old) wardrobookcase, as the old lady over the road died some weeks ago and her relatives were clearing out. They said I could just take it, so all I need to do is replace the horrible thin plywood shelves with nice, stained pine ones to match the top shelf ( original ) as closely as possible.

I can't believe they were going to chuck it in a skip!

My pot plants are dying. I bought them specifically cos they said 'hardy'. Hardy is important to me. I dont have a green thumb. But they're dying anyway.

Sad.

At least my bonsai isn't doing too badly :]

What plants are they specifically? Is there a label in the pot? You may be watering too much or not enough, or have them in the wrong spot. And instead of buying food pellets or liquid foods ( if you do ) DON'T .

Find someone with either a fishtank or pond, or just find a natural pond ( preferably with fish in it ) take a jugful of the water from the pond, or squeeze out one of the filter sponges from the fishtank filter, and put it into an empty 2 litre lemonade bottle.

Top up with fresh water shake it up to mix and keep it in a cool dark place. Use this to water your plants once a month. The fish waste makes GREAT plant feed. I had an aloe vera in the bathroom that went ballistic on this treatment. I had to give it to my brother in the end as we didn't have room for it on the windowsill any more.
