February 29th
Writing a post simply to celebrate the 29th February! I have a friend who is about a week overdue to have a baby. I think it would be great if the baby comes today … but my friend does not agree!
A colleague just said it's unfair that we have to work on the 29th February. [...]

My manager has today brought in a huge box of Terry's All Gold and placed it right next to me! ARRRGGHH!!! This is a huge test of my chocolate resisting for Lent.
To encourage myself i have made a ticker that shows that i have been without chocolate for 22 days! :)

Okay, there are plenty of criticisms you can make, particularly with speed, timing, and volume contrast. I could go on. But if you saw the whole program you would know how far they have come, and the [...]

Funny TV for a Friday night, but oddly un-tear-away-from-able … The Choir, "Boys Don't Sing" where Gareth Malone takes Lancaster School in Leicester and forms a choir out of nothing and takes them to perform at the Royal Albert Hall.

I am home alone tonight; my partner is out bowling or doing something equally as exciting! :) I have had a productive evening: phoned a few people, done some chores, had a tin of ratatouille for dinner (which i got specially for home-alone nights, knowing how bad i am at cooking for myself!).
The other night [...]

There are estimated to be 1022 stars in the entire universe. That's ten thousand billion billion. That number of grains of sand would cover the entire United Kingdom to a depth of several centimetres. Yet a single cube of sugar contains more atoms than stars in the universe!
Science is fascinating! :)
I read it this morning [...]

Haha, yeah i've been there before … try to avoid it as much as possible these days. Drama is just not my style anymore! ;)

I am now an ordained minister of the Universal Life Church! I received my confirmation email this morning.
I did this because i agree with the values of the church - the acceptance and respect of all religions, not putting any religion above any other, treating everyone as special. I like their one simple doctrine: "To [...]
