A video of me from about midnight last night:



I'm pretty sick. I have two new jobs. Actually I have one job at Lincraft and basically had to turn the other one down because I'm too sick to go to the training day today. Lame! My driving has been put on hold due to Dad's car breaking down and I've started on a course of medication that is making me sicker than I was to begin with. BUT -- I'm saving up to buy a new computer, and we're moving house in a couple of months (hopefully to somewhere AWESOME) and... I think that's about it. I might post a comic today, but I basically just want to curl up and die. We've only got two episodes of the West Wing to go! Ever! I expected it to be pretty bad after Aaron Sorkin left, but it picked up a lot in Season 6. And to be honest I don't miss a lot of his ridiculous monologues about "leaning out into the darkness and licking the stars of tomorrow", or whatever he was on about. People don't just casually throw those things into conversation. I'M SORRY MR SORKIN BUT MAYBE YOU WERE ON TOO MUCH COCAINE TO NOTICE THAT.

I'm going to go drink some hot chocolate, then experience it again in reverse half an hour later.

NO FOOL NOT MILK!!! you drink watered down fruit juice or cordial...ginger and peppermint is good for not throwing up too so you drink ginger or peppermint tea. peppermint tea is awsome...ginger tea burns when you throw it up though.

That made me laugh so much!
Awesome.

Hi. You're asleep on the couch right now but I don't want to wake you because you're covered in kittens and you need the rest anyway.

Aaron Sorkin was also prone to the occasional bout of head-patting self-congratulating cringe-worthily paternal sexism. But he was good with the jokes.

What do you mean, people don't casually throw things like "leaning out into the darkness and licking the stars of tomorrow" into conversation? I said that to my sister last week when I wanted her to take the bins out.

Why is it that everyone on drugs is a damn genius? Maybe that's my problem. I should just take some drugs.

I love "The West Wing"... sigh. Cannot cope with the loss of both "Buffy" and "The West Wing", it's just too much! It's one of those shows that is both funny, and makes you feel smart just sitting in front of the television watching it. And damned if I don't have just the tiniest thought every now and then about being a press secretary...

Haha: "Don't do drugs. People on drugs think they are creative. To everyone else, they seem like people on drugs."

Such a good show! Still haven't finished it, I don't want it to be over. My dad is our DVD library at the moment, but I'm still waiting for him to buy the final season of Six Feet Under, and whatever season of The Sopranos we're up to... I'm not sure what to watch now! Maybe I'll just start the West Wing again.

I may sound like a huge nerd, but I suggest the new season of Dr Who.
It's funny and awesome and scary as fuck

It's such a shame that "Studio 60" was turned into a pile of utter garbage.
Maybe he should get back on the cocaine

Still sick! The vomiting stopped pretty fast though. It's all nausea and headaches now. Total party in my body that I'm not invited to. I'm getting better though, slowly. How are you?

Wow way to only notify my of this comment now gmail. It says this is three days old but it's just sending it now?

Anyway. Glad to hear you're feeling better. I'm OK, just plodding along. Have had a really shitty month and it's all catching up at once. Huge exam tomorrow is not helping at all either :(
