Sept Choses

1. No sooner had I been introduced to the joy that is Ghost Whisperer (I think Jim wins the prize for best TV husband, frankly), than Katie and I watched the first two eps of Heroes last night. IT IS GENIUS!! Absolutely brilliant, and I cannot wait to watch lots, lots more of it. In fact, there is so much love I can scarcely articulate it.

2. I cut my fringe on Saturday. On the plus side, I remembered to put the plug down the sink and then retrieve all the hair and throw it away so it didn’t clog the drain. On the downside, it was midnight and I was still slightly under the influence of l’alcool, so I now have (yet again) a short, spaccy, wonky fringe. Still, my hair seems to be growing quite quickly, so it’ll probably have grown out by Friday.

3. It’s my last day in Dermatology today!!!

4. I had dinner with Chris and Bex on Saturday in their new flat in Vauxhall, which is very nice indeed (and I have quite severe kitchen envy). A pleasant time was had by all (well, I had a pleasant time, and Chris and Bex seemed to, unless it was all playacting) – dinner was very nice, and we played games (TPs, which Chris, yet again, cheated by knowing the answers, and poker, in which I beat him every time – ha ha ha because he always talks big and I always beat him). Have borrowed series 2 of the Boosh, so looking forward to watching that at some stage.

5. Earlier on Saturday I looked at some flats: first two were no-hopers, but the third was a vague possibility, so Katie will be bopping off to have a look, probably some time this week.

6. Went to Kathye’s on Sunday: always jolly. Cuddled Hannah quite a lot, and also suffered the indignity of Megan bouncing about on my legs under the misapprehension that I was some kind of playground installation. She’s such a sweetheart, though. I love her lots.

7. There have been rumblings in the PF about a scientific study into the best cult TV husbands, but we get a bit stuck trying to think of any. So far, we have Jim from Ghost Whisperer and Wash from Firefly. Any further nominations from the gallery? Then we can have a poll, and it will be *glorious*.

All About Me. Yet Again.

Huzzah! A meme! Tagged by katie__pillar (because I made her, blatantly, through the power of my brainwaves).

10 weirdy things about me. Can't remember the rest of it, so am paraphrasing...

i. My hair falls out in *handfuls* (this is, unusually for me, no exaggeration). It’s amazing I’m not bald.
ii. I have a thing about milk. I can only drink it when I know it hasn’t been out for more than about five minutes, and it doesn’t smell in any way not quite perfectly right, and it has come from a source I approve of (Sainsburys, Waitrose, M&S and Tesco, basically).
iii. Sod tea, I firmly believe that Ribena is a universal panacea.
iv. I didn’t understand Maths at all as a child, and hated it most of all my school lessons.
v. My hormones do not function correctly. The bastards.
vi. I just spent 50p on a banana when I could have just brought one from home. I am a fool.
vii. I cut my own fringe, usually with disastrous consequences. See above re my foolishness.
viii. I sleep a lot.
ix. I used to fantasize about being married to Spock, living in Amsterdam, and having thirteen children.
x. I easily succumb to new obsessions, and just as easily relinquish them for the next new thing.
