Technically the time has come round when I am obliged to post. I know this because Dolor has told me this is so and she is the speaker of the truth.

But as ever I do not really know what to say... I feel I am drifting further and further from some old friends, but trying to think postitively about that, I'm sure better ones must exist in the future and I look forward to finding them. I don't know whether people are responding to our inevitable separation by distancing themselves or if they're using the opportunity to stop pretending we're closer than we are. I suppose in the long run it doesn't much matter. No worries though, I can remember the good times :)

Went to a ball type thing the other night and felt like I should have enjoyed it more than I did. It was a bizarre mix of posh and not posh and it all felt quite unreal! I'm either uncultured or maybe too cultured? Or something else entirely.. confusing stuff.

Can't believe it's almost July. Doesn't time get away from you? Years seem to be passing by faster and faster, it's quite scary. I feel like I have a lot to do and not a lot of time to do it. Really must stop wasting my life away.

Series 2 of Heroes finishes next week. Good ol' cliffhanger this week, slightly concerned about where it's headed though! Also Melissa, don't think I ever mentioned that they showed pushing dasies over here? It was good stuff, liked it. Very strange programme, but that's all good. Started missing it more and more towards the end of the series though, I think I need to watch it again sometime. They didn't show episode 2 either because they're stupid. Thinking about it, not even sure I can remember how it ended! I think I got quite confused by some of the episodes, I can't keep up.

May be going to the theme park next week so I am happy. It doesn't take too much, you see :)

Finally saw Sweeney Todd tonight, good stuff, made me laugh. Does that make me a bit evil?

Going to see Elton John next month, I'm excited. Shame the storys won't be supporting though. Check em out.

I reckon that's a pretty impressive lengthed post considering I had nothing to say!

I hope that everyone is well, why not post yourselves and tell me all about it either way?

5 reasons to be cheerful:

1) At the moment it feels like summer is here! At the back of my mind is the fear it won't last, but for now at least it's properly hot (by my standards at least) and this makes me happy. I think my moods are very much dictated by the weather.. if it's a bright day then I'll automatically feel much more positive about it.

2) Heroes is back on the box... We're on series 2 so no doubt trailing behind you but it's all good.

3) Birthday is coming up soon

4) What must have been the longest and most incredibly boring night of my life is OVER! People who play the recorder really must accept that it still sounds crap however 'advanced' you are. Still, moaning at the end of it gave me the biggest laugh since the end of oxford murders last week.. If you're considering seeing this then I have some advice.. definitely don't.

5) Absolutely anything can happen on the future... with good fortune, a postive attitude and a bit of effort life could get better and better all the time.. it is what you make it and anyone can make it good. That's got to be something to smile about. 

How about yours?

I am full of a strange kind of excitement, but I don't think I have anything to be particularly excited about. I hope it turns out I have some sort of 6th sense and something good is about to happen. I'll keep you updated if it does I suppose.. 

My friend seems to enjoy giving me the impression that she's some sort of alcoholic. I am not impressed and I have told her so. Best watch her all the same, even though I'm fairly sure it's a strange attention thing. Honestly...

I'm quite bored at the moment which is why I have resorted to writing something. Sorry that it's not up to much, but I'm sure you've come to expect that by now!

Shannon, been meaning to mention for a while that I know where 'fuller go easy on the pepsi' comes from, so I can be smug also. It is a very fine place indeed, too. I know someone who is completely unfamiliar with that place, which I find hard to believe. It's a yearly thing for me, and has been for as long as I can remember. It is a classic christmas tradition that I assumed everyone enjoyed!

Oh what else can I say... I do miss the days of the forums and endless pm conversations.. it's so much easier to have an amusing and constructive chat that way than it is writing to yourself like this. It makes me feel like a creepy diary writer doing this (no offence to anyone who writes, or has ever written a real life diary.. I'm sure that you're fine and lovely). The chatroom was also fun although I only contributed once in a blue moon and normally ended up getting creeped by one of my anti-friends. Those were funny times.. I regret, dolor, rarely having any such conversations with you. We all had better relationships when we could talk properly I think. 

Well, no use in pining after the past, so sorry about that. I really shouldn't write whatever thoughts come tumbling out my mind, should I?

I'm hoping somebody soon will write something witty and inspirational! Until then...hmmmm... 5 things not many people know about you? I suppose I should probably start, as this is the mistake I've made in the past. I've thought long and hard to come up with 5 interesting things, but this has been a fruitless effort, so I apologise for whatever I am about to write.

1) Whenever I own a folder, particularly if it is plain white on the inside, I cannot resist covering it in creepy little cartoon drawings. These are not your typical doodles that are done in moments of boredom. I have been known to completely decorate a folder before using it. I also do it to other peoples, but fortunately they don't object and seem quite pleased as a rule. Once I bought a nice ol packet of pens specifically for this purpose.
2) Once upon a time I played Dandy Dan in Bugsy Malone. This interests me now, since I really can't do a very good american accent.  I wonder how exactly I got through however many hours of it there were, how the audience tolerated what must have been a pretty terrible perfomance, and indeed how on earth I got the part in the first place. I think I must have had bubbling enthusiasm or something.
3) I am currently very infatuated with somebody whose appearance I really don't think much of, whose personality probably isn't great and who I don't know personally in the slightest. This is something I don't understand at all.
4) I once wrote poetry on this forum, leading people to think I was some kind of poetic person. I had never written poetry for leisure before, nor have I since. I am a great pretender. In fact, I don't even like poetry. At the time, however, writing my own did lead to me reading some by others that was genuinely good - probably because it was genuine. As a rule poetry available to the masses in published form is written for the masses and lacks any realness. That's what set this stuff apart. It was real, which appears to make all the difference. I think that I might like real poems that are based on and stir real emotions.
5) Five five five... Yesterday I went bowling for the first time in years. It all started of very well, leading me to wonder if I was a bit of a natural. I am definitely not, and ended up being completely owned. I got less than 100 points which I think is basically 'terrible'. A similar thing happened when I went ice skating for the first time in years last december. I remembered myself being quite good, but on that occasion I was really very pathetic. I had to hang on to people/the edge constantly. Not impressive. Not impressive at all.

I am so, so sorry if you fell asleep and injured yourself at any point during the reading of this post.

Ever discovered an easter egg mould in your house and thought it would be a great idea to make use of it? Well, if you ever find yourself in this position then here's some invaluable advice.. DON'T do it. It is not actually very enjoyable at all, and the pictures on the front are very misleading. I do only have myself to blame though for having such a childish response to a funky bit of plastic.

I should probably apologise for my last post. You may be pleased to know I have pulled myself together slightly and am quite chirpy at the moment. I hope that everybody else is also chirpy.

Apologies to Dolor for not being as attentive to her blogs as she is to mine. I do appreciate your input you know.

Apologies to Melissa for not looking at my calendar properly and not wishing her happy birthday on the right day.

Apologies also to anyone else who feels they deserve them. You may be right.

Also, if Rach ever stumbles across this blog, which seems unlikely, then might I say that Emma is looking lovely, though I'm shocked at how quickly she has grown. Doesn't seem a year since she was the tiny froggy thing with amazingly curly hair!

Hope everyone is happy and everything, and I think that since I have posted something certain others who are slacking on the posting front should do the same.. :)
