(3 your baby's got rabies:.: | no more maybes:.:) Baths are awesome [15 Nov 2009|10:07pm] jimjamjenny I have been sitting in my apartment all day feeling kind of cold (well, once I finally got out of bed - I am sneezing/coughing a lot at the moment, and was feeling really useless and unable to do anything so I've slept way more this weekend than I normally would), although I wore lots of layers and wrapped myself up in a blanket so it wasn't too bad... Then in the evening I went to have a bath, and since getting out of the bath I have just been sitting here in my pyjamas, with no additional blankets or anything, and I feel perfectly fine. Ah, the magic of baths. I should really try to have them more often. It gives me a good chance to read too. Huzzah! Bedtime now, although I'm not convinced I'm going to be able to sleep, as after getting up for an hour or so at 7am, I went back to bed and slept until about 1pm, so I ended up sleeping for about 11 hours or something, hehe. It's probably a good thing, I guess. Too many sleepless nights recently. Tomorrow, I am hopefully going to get a lot of 2nd year essay marking done. And that is it. I really hate these periods where I have nothing or very little to do at work. At least though I am studying hard at the moment, which means that assuming I have enough time to do it at work, means that I can fill lots of time productively. Still though, I would prefer to have a job where I was actually required to do stuff. Having to get up and travel to work for an hour and 1/2 or so, just to sit there and do nothing irritates me. At least last week I had something that I had to be there for everyday, as I was helping one of my students study for her Eiken (An English exam - very useful for university applications etc apparently, dubious how much it would actually realistically show how good someone is at English). At least I remembered that I have a DS, so my train journeys every day have seemed very short. Enough rambling, bedtime! Woooo!

(2 your baby's got rabies:.: | no more maybes:.:) [13 Nov 2009|01:07am] vanity_overkill 12:51 is an awful time to wake up, its more like I should be going to sleep. I feel like I have the intent to print all of this out one day, and I don't know,maybe that one day is fast approaching. It's friday morning, which rivals monday for worst day of the week. Not that I'm particularly worried about what day of the week it is. dear silly internet diary, things are an awful mess! I don't think Im going t o the dance, and the other kids might throw rocks at me :( whats a girl to do? I think a girl is going to take another sleepy pill. I had a dream and I remember reading in it the other night. I want to write it down so I remembver. Dr Mary Baker was in it. We were all looking at solar systems and she wanted to find onre called, um, "boori" or "bushnie" I remember saying "well, here's kikini, right next to boori" The shapes of the land masses (in the dream they weren't planets anymore, but these weird continents) Its funny, the names that I assigned in my dream to these places, Boori and kikini, the shapes of each land mass were in perfect sync to what constitutes synethesia. Basically, boori, when you sound it out is a "round" sound (youll picture a blobbly circle is you picture an image to the sounds.) kikini was a triabngle, jagged land mass. It was an interesting dream. we were discussing that it was only appropriate to visit these locales if it was a "long term investment" that struck me as odd. The real kicker, in dreamland, was the next dream I had. Ever since I was very young, I've had terrible dreams about water. There are several types. The first being, water and bridges. These are the earliest. My mother cannot swim, and we are in a car, and we drive off a bridge itno water. soemtimes a high bridge, sometimes the bridge is water level and we slide in. Regardless, the panic is the same and the dream stops when car hits water. Second type, large tsunamis, big, sweeping tsunamis while Im alone on a beach. Thirds, the most common,are scenarios where Im with a group of people, always my younger brother is present. the waves at the beach start small, and I slowly get concerned as the waves get really, really unreasonably high, and they seem to sort of slow down, so I can really experience this panic. People around me either notice, and flee leaving me with these incessant, really high, sudden waves. Or, they stay and have fun, while I am panicking. I had one just the other night. I was in a wave pool, and the waves were intentionally increased to be high and sudden. Now, Im not one to really read into these sort of things, but I can truthfully say that scary, giant waves and water have been a consistent theme in my dream since I was four years old. They always leave me unsettled for a few days. I really dont like them.. I've been avoiding sleep ;lately. Like, right now, I woek up, and Im scared to go back to sleep because of these sort of dreams. I have doused myself in lavander and have taken appropriate chemicals to induce sleep. life is hard, lately.

(10 your baby's got rabies:.: | no more maybes:.:) radio! [12 Nov 2009|09:13am] manchester [glitzfrau] I'm working from home this week, and sick of Radio 4. What local radio stations do you all listen to? I like either talk radio or indie/alternative music radio - are there any good FM or digital Manchester-based stations? Save me from the darn Archers!

(1 your baby's got rabies:.: | no more maybes:.:) [12 Nov 2009|01:36am] vanity_overkill Can't sleep now. I could earlier, I might later, right this second, not working out so much. Its funny livejournal, you're my favorite place when I should be doing other things. LIke reading one of eight hundred and thirty seven million articles for exam tomorrow. Fucking rough. Stuff and Things, I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what. Swear to (g)od. I always start writing an entry, and stop. Always. I could probably write about horrible experiences in the car. Those happen a lot, you know. I've been reading Kathy Griffin's autobiography. Bad combination, I've convinced myself I could absolutely be a stand up comedienne. I was heavily supported by several drunk friends who find me hilarious, by the way. This could also be a delusion. But, so long as Im aware things could in fact be delusions, Im okay. It's that second where Im truly unaware I have to watch out for. But I can't possibly watch out for those moments when Im unaware because I would be aware that Im not aware. I suspect, and I could be wrong, but this is where thousands of dollars have gone. I am going to make a lorazacocoa (keep an eye out,or be AWARE of, har har of a coming patent!!!) and get my ass to bed, curled up in a nest of german court cases that make as much sense as potato chips dipped in paint.

(no more maybes:.:) [09 Nov 2009|09:41am] manchester [pangalactic] I've got a ticket for Seasick Steve at the Apollo tonight that I'm not going to be using. I'm looking to sell it to someone who'll actually use it rather than a tout. I'm after face value or a reasonable offer. If you're interested reply here or email me at ihatethisbit at hotmail dot com. I'm working until half 5 but I live in the city centre so ill be able to meet up with anyone who wants it from 6 onwards. Cheers.

(5 your baby's got rabies:.: | no more maybes:.:) Saturday mornings? [06 Nov 2009|11:52am] manchester [kathleenalice] Does anyone know of any cafes which are open at 9am on a Saturday morning in the Northern Quarter?

(9 your baby's got rabies:.: | no more maybes:.:) Late night coffee [06 Nov 2009|11:34am] manchester [images_words] Does anyone know of anywhere in Manchester (city centre area) that you can get coffee after 7/8pm? I think most of the starbucks/Nero/Costa shut around 8 and I want somewhere I can have a coffee later than that (preferably up until 10 or later). I know there are places like hotels or pubs and clubs that serve coffee, but was looking for an actual coffee shop. Either a chain or an independent place. Thank you,
