the best thing since sliced bread

After a few days on twitter now I think its pretty safe to say it is not quite the best thing since sliced bread… but it is definately fun! Great being able to banter with all you girls more easily, so a huge thank you for the warm welcome. I have been so focused on work this week, and been busy blabbing away on twitter and posting pictures, I feel like for the first time in ages I don’t have anything that interesting to blog about 🙁 na’a mean? I’m planning on making another youtube video soon – so please hit me up with any ideas on what you’d like to see. I know themed posts have never been my strong point, and I don’t know if that will change any time soon, so for now here is a little round up of what has been making me smile the past couple of weeks, via my trusty camera phone.

L-R

1. This one was a few months ago actually, but its the Got To Dance dome getting built outside my work. I observed on my lunch break in AWE.
2. A single high heel on a fence in town, that person must of had a good one the night before…
3. (Almost) naked mannequins in a wedding shop window! Shirts, shoes and socks is a good look 😉
4. A teeny snippet of the show I get to watch twice a day. But my general knowledge is still rubbish I’ll have you know.
5. Feeling semi organised with my little standby kit. Contains one of EVERYTHING crafty related you can imagine. Well, almost.
6. Flicking through the filmbang directory and finding a picture of myself on one of the pages, whaaaat?!
7. Realising that the pink v water kinda tastes like every other v water but I think I like it the best.
8. My first twitpic – posing in the lift for y’all.
9. My AMAZING parcel from the gorgeous SJ. What an awesome girl, this cheered me up so much ♥
10. Proving that a simple dinner is often the BEST kind of dinner! (and sometimes your only option when you get in from work at 8pm and the boy has already eaten)
11. My hair is growing which makes me smile, but I need my fringe cut again.
12. A tiny little hat which I got free on a bottle of innocent smoothie… I have no idea what to do with it!

Something which I am obsessing over right now is Misfits on channel 4. Any of you watch it also? It’s the first show since Lost which I am really into (and well, hollyoaks too…) I caught up on the first two episodes of the new series online, and last night watched it on e4+1 (saviour channel) I cant get enough of it! Nathan absolutely cracks me up!

Are you a religious watcher of any show? Love a good box set? Talking about hollyoaks – its a guilty pleasure of mine and watching omnibus on a sunday is the bees knees. Although recently all it has made me do is cry. I am a right blubber when it comes to sad episodes and sad films. I swear I’m not one of these people who cries at everything! But sometimes, it just can’t be helped. Now tell me, will I need to get the tissues out tonight for this one?

I know I’m a bit late on the bandwagon – I’ve heard amazing things about it from you all in the past week or so and I can’t wait to see it tonight with the boy 🙂 Then I’m working tomorrow and sunday will be my first day off in 9 days, so can you guess that I’m looking forward to that muchly? I plan on sleeping, eating lots, hollyoaks omnibus (ovbz!) and going to buy our first christmas tree plus decorations for the flat 🙂 What’s your plans this weekend?

And one more thing, thank you all for being awesome. The support and kind words mean the world to me. And even when I’m not writing about anything that amazing you still take the time to show an interest by reading and commenting and that makes me smile 🙂 Knowing that people actually read my little blog really does keep me going, even when my inspiration feels a bit blue. So, thank you ♥

    Awww missus, sorry you're feeling so blue. 29 days to Christmas though? (Yeah I'm that person)…I'll be stealing the boys advent chocolate soon enough.

    Hah I love the high heel on the fence…how the hell anyone could walk home with only one shoe on….completely redik.

    Harry Potter btw…all kinds of magnificent. I know I'm going to cry my face off come July.

    you'll definitely need tissues for hp, i cried quite a lot, especially at the end, so sad.
    your hair's looking lovely! i was going to get mine cut a lot shorter than it currently is but i chickened out last minute and i've now decided to grow my hair.
    that high heel just sums up glasgow at the weekend!

    Aw Harry Potter is so good, you'll love it! Although since it's just part 1 it felt like watching half a film, if you know what I mean. I was sitting quite happily watching it, and suddenly the credits came up and everyone was like WTF NO PUT IT BACK ON!!! It's quite funny in the pictures above how Daniel Radcliffe looks pretty much the same in both of them!
    How can a person lose a high heel outdoors? I don't get it, I'd be gutted to lose a shoe 🙁

    I for one am very happy you joined twitter. I go through phases where I don't know what to post about, so I just leave it a few days and wait for inspiration. Harry Potter rules, hope you have a lovely time. Never seen misfits, maybe I'll watch it on catch up, like I did with Miranda the other day, now that is a LOL. Hope you're well, have a lovely day off xxx

    I bloody love your blog posts, they are such good reads, like I'm chatting to you. 🙂

    So my shiny haired friend, to sum it up…
    Simple dinners rock, with a big cup of tea. Yummers.
    Not watched HP all the way through, any of em, sorry! 🙂
    Those little hats, we used ours for comedy photos and put on our snowman.
    Glad you are on twitter. 🙂
    Hope you are feeling better, sure the Xmas cheer will get you there.

    My eyes were immediately drawn to the vitamin water and I thought, "mmmmm vitamin water" and now I'm thirsty and I want vitamin water but there's no vitamin water in the house and I want it even though drinking it makes me go to the bathroom a lot and I hate jumping up and down all day.

    Now that the mania is out out of the way, bring tissues to HP if you're a movie-cryer. If not, you'll be alright. It was amazing, though. Definitely the deepest of the movies thus far. Amazing visual effects! Hope you enjoy it!

    Your hair looks so cute in those snaps, I really love it, your fringe is lovely. I used to watch Hollyoaks religiously but I got out of the habit once Warren died because I lust after him immensely and it lost its appeal. But now he is back I am thinking I will give it another try (I know, so fickle!) Glad you're enjoying Twitter, I love it also and much prefer it to Facebook.

    Paramore are indeed awesome, thank you for the lovely comment and sorry it took me so long to respond! I agree Misfits is so good, and I really want an Innocent smoothie with a hat on! Try putting it on your phone or something if it fits.

    That mannequin looks like it's advertising stag night outfits not wedding outfits! And aah that Innocent smoothie hat is adorable!! Put it on a teddy or thread a keychain to put it on your keys! It is a bit random haha.
    Hollyoaks always used to make me cry when I watched it! I was sobbing at Max's funeral. Tom was too cute and Steph singing was so nice! And the time when Warren's sister, Katy, was leaving and she was saying goodbye to Warren! Heartbreaking!! x

    I love Misfits. It's like a funny, less "I'm so alternative" Skins. Nathan is brilliant.
    I love those innocent smoothie hats, although they are pointless and impractical. Maybe you could sew a loop onto it and make it into a christmas tree decoration?

    Aww Ayden you could write about paint drying and I would still come past & be interested in what you have to say about it ;]
    I love posts like this where its just a group of photos and short descriptions of whats going on, leaves the reader to imagine more if that makes sense >.<
    I am going to watch HP tonight as well with Jayv, hopefully we both enjoy it ;] .. I have a feeling I am going to cry loads >.< .. but being able to check out Ron and Draco Malfoy is always a plus ;] haha

    oh it's the cold it zap's the inspiration, but I love that your on twitter I love talking to blog people and it's great for finding out what events are going on etc…. Oh I love your pictures, back in the day I would have been the person to leave the one shoe on the fence 🙁 loss a few. Not good ….
    OMG I love Misfits did you see it the other night, how hott is simon, I posted an interview with them a while ago I love that Kelly (Real name Lauren) really does talk like that !! Nathan is the Legend of the gang I love that he does not care but under it all he does give a shit and protects who he cares about. I have also started watching the new peep show, not as good as the old ones but still funny. Oh I look forward to your you tube videos xxxxx
