This might sound strange but it makes you feel really good, just write down whatever random thoughts are in your head at the moment...it helps clear your mind up a bit and helps reduce stress.
1. Reindeer might be disappointing now that Jon's said ostrich is tastier
2. Weekend break in 2 days!
3. I've spent tooo much in the canteen today
4. In fact, I've spent too much money this week!
5. Why do I never comment on anything about geology anymore?
They are out of newspapers in the stand outside this building, I'm sad. I need to do the crossword!
This two hour break between classes is taking forever. I still have an hour left.
It got real cold real fast here today, it was 70 yesterday but 40 today, and windy (which it pretty much never is). Didn't really expect that when i left my house, kinda underdressed. It's ok though, this is my favorite shirt.
I've never eaten ostrich or reindeer.
I've led a sheltered life.
I like to go out smacking rocks.
Accompanied by my wife.
My daughter's CV joints are worn.
She needs another car.
But tapping me up for lifts all the time
Isn't going to get her far.
1. weekend break was fun
2. it's a shame both of my cash cards got eaten by a broken machine
3. have rekindle my desire to start going to archery!
4. can't afford to buy a bow and arrows
5. going out for a meal tomorrow. woo!
Somebody bust my wing mirror when I was parked at the magistrates court.
No I didn't do anything wrong, I was taking notes.
But I got the wrong directions and ended up somewhere completely different.
Therefore I was too late.
But I went inside anyway.
Which is when the mirror got bust.
So it must be karma for being so flippant about Jenny's "don't you hate it" post.
And now it's stuck together with sellotape.
Otherwise the middle falls out.
But currently it's raining and I don't think it will hold.
So on my way over to St Austell tonight it will end up strewn all over the road.
And I don't know much about the lecture I'm taking.
But neither does anyone else.
So that's all right.
Somebody bust my wing mirror when I was parked at the magistrates court.
Sorry to hear about that Gus, and don't worry...I didn't come all the way down to Cornwall and bust your wing mirror!
1. Ow, I've got heartburn
2. When will this cold go (at the moment I sound like a 14 year old boy going through puberty, I'm sure customers think I'm just the work experience kid!)
3. Chinese food tonight...yum!
4. Sock Monkeys
5. payday tomorrow!!
6. hmmm...what should I decorate on Saturday?
Jenny, if you were prepared to travel all the way down here to just bust the wing mirror, the least you could do is nick the engine as well!
My life's all in bits
The cat's got the squits
Dunno what to do
Get some PVA glue
Stick rocks together
But why bother
It's really a crime
To write such a crap rhyme.
I might have been a poet but I probably wouldn't know it. I tend to be a clown 'cos I don't like feeling down. I'm really a bit of a berk for doing this at work. It saves me from feeling bored but now I'm lost for a word.
I can never find words that rhyme, so I won't even bother!
1. Could my luck get any worse? My car key snapped yesterday so I had to walk home from work to get my spare key and then go back to work again. Thank goodness that they hadn't locked the gates by then!
2. I wonder if the local peugeot dealers does M.O.T.s
3. and if I could get a new master key from them...
4. I wonder how much an MOT costs...
I remember getting an MOT at a garage in Wales years ago, recommended by a mate. You just walked in, the guy asks if your car's fit to drive, you say yes and hey presto an MOT. 5 minutes max but the same price as a normal one. You could have got an MOT for a bucket of rust which is what a lot of my cars were back then. Gone upmarket since - I won't buy a car that's gone round the clock more than twice.
1) My braces hurt.
2) My coffee's going cold, perhaps I should microwave it?
3) I need to do some tidying.
4) I'm bored, I wish it was time for Jon to get home from work.
Oooh, you're right, it does work!

1. I have wireless internet now at home. Excellent. Now I can watch National Geographic documentaries on Wales and type message board posts at the same time.
2. Mmmm... chocolate.
3. Should really look up the Library of Congress classification system.
4. Would rather have chocolate.
1. I really want wireless internet at home
2. I really want a laptop
3. maybe numbers 1 and 2 should be reversed
4.I should really go and make pudding but I can't be bothered...
5. my feet are cold
6. I've just taken 2 quizzes and apparently I'm Rainbow Brite or Good Luck Bear (weird, huh?)
7. my ear is itching *scratch, scratch, scratch*
8. tired *yawn*
1. But that has no chocolate in it.
2. Strawberry chocolate it best. Mmm...
3. I wish I had some orange juice. The freshly squeezed type, not the 'from concentrate' rubbish...
Hey Jenny - is that rice pudden ready yet????? I'm starvin'
Strangely I have always had a yearning to try my hand at archery as well - what causes a thing like that I wonder? I used to be quite good at darts (could hit the board 7 out of 10 times!), but haven't played since I left the Army. Could bows and arrows be an extention - or could I be decended from Robin Hood?

oooh, what did it look like? I saw a great spotted woodpecker last weekend...in fact, I saw 3
1. Lasagne is the nicest food in the world
2. woo, my auctions have got bids on them!
3. omg, it's halloween in 2 weeks
4. why have I become addicted to neighbours again?
There we are, back again. It wasn't a mega-long lunch, just my connection crashed.
The bird was a long-billed dowitcher, normally from North America and it should have been going to South America but got blown off course a bit by the hurricanes. In a good year you can get 5 in Britain, normally none at all. There's a piccy on my computer but I've forgotten how to get it from my pictures onto here.
1) Left-over pizza is delicious - want more.
2) My cuppa is cold, can't be bothered to go and make another though.
3) I told Jenny I'd email her and haven't done it yet, better go do it now

1. Bread & butter pudding is yummy!
2. Why won't this cough go away
3. I've finally emailed Katie back!
4. Don't want to go to work tomorrow
5. Car's going in for its MOT on Thursday and I'm sure I'm going to have to spend lots of money to get it fixed or something...
1. Where do I start with archery? - don't know any clubs. Will I have to wear green tights?
2. Pizza is my all time favourite - especially when they are made to order in Italy. Love to see the pastry 'spun'.
3. Got 3 weeks off now, and going to Spain on a field trip for 10 days.
4. Put another KityKat tin over the hole in the exhaust. Must get it fixed proper.
5 I know where to see a Great Bustard on Salisbury Plain.
Am I only allowed 5 random thoughts?

1. Where do I start with archery? - don't know any clubs. Will I have to wear green tights?
You'd be best off looking on the Grand National Archery Society's website: http://www.gnas.org
They have a clubs section, so you should be able to find one near you. To join a club you have to first do a beginners course. Mine cost £30 for 6 x 2hr lessons. Gives you a good taster to see if you want to take it up before you go out and buy the necessary equipment.
and you'll only have to wear green tights if you want to compete in compettitions!
1. My boyfriend does archery. He's trying to teach me but I keep losing his arrows in the trees.
2. I'd just like to go to Italy, even if I didn't get pizza (I'm more fond of pasta).
3. I have far too much work to do and not enough time to do it in (so why am I procrastinating on here?!??!).
4. I have a stressful seminar meeting later today when I think all my group are going to yell at one another... great.
My computer at home's got bird flu.
The other computer at work's packed up too.
So I can't do anything useful at work.
Which is why I'm irritating my colleagues.
By being cheeky and demanding.
At some point they'll get fed up.
And someone will throw a stapler at me.
Which will raise a lump somewhere.
And I'll do the MOD for harrassment.
Which will make me rich.
That's the plan anyway.
1. My boyfriend does archery. He's trying to teach me but I keep losing his arrows in the trees.
ooooh, which type of archery? Target, Field, Clout, Poppinjay? Recurve, Longbow, Compound?
1. I really want to take up archery
2. Thanks goodness my auctions are doing well, I might be able to spend some of that money on my kit.
3. But the study needs decorating, so that's more important
4. It's going to be next year before I can get my kit
