| Leaving on a jet plane.... again |
[19 Jul 2008|07:33am] |
It is 07.15 and I am sitting in bed having a cup of coffee before I get cracking and hit the road. I have taxi coming at 08.45 for my 5 minute drive to the airport. I am nearly packed. From Barca I am flying back to London for 2 days to look after some children while their parents go away then I fly to Inverness for my highland sojourn. I haven't made any arrangements to see anybody from my flist as 4 children in tow wouldn't work.
Late last night I had an email from one of my Bruce friends already in Barca and it was suddenly exciting. Earlier in the evening I called into see a friend and we made a sign for Bruce so he can sing me a song I want to hear him sing and we had a lot of laughs as we sat round the kitchen table and her and her two sons - as they competed to make the best sign - took the mickey out of me and I stayed too long so didn't get anything done and by the time I painted my toenails I didn't get to bed till 01.45.
SO... Bruce tonight in the heat of Barcelooooooooooooooooooooona. Thank you for the well wishes. Apologies for not responding to comments or entries just yet. My laptop's coming with me so I might be able to make updates. Be good. Gotta go go go go.

Cuando pensé que mí resfrio mejoraba, no. Ahora me duelen los pulmones y las costillas.
No siento mejoría interna, es decir, sólo siento que cada vez paso por más momentos como éste.
Mí alma se tiene que sanar.
Yo sé que algunas personas tendrian que estar en lo mismo que yo para entenderme, pero a la vez, también comprendo que lo que dicen es muy cierto, en su totalidad.
Creo que he usado todas las pabras para hacer sentir esto que me quema.
Siempre es lo mismo conmigo, no tengo vuelta atrás, no soy lo que esperan.
Cuando te vi, y vi que te ibas, quise estar ahí para hablar, pero, te dejé ir, de la mano con ella.
No entiendo el origen de tanto dolor, el alma se queda pequeña ante tanta pena y tanto llano.
Ew, me voy mejor, siempre lloro.

First of all.........YAY! Ronaldo will be staying at ManUtd and won't be disgracing Real Madrid! God, that's the best news I've heard all day. So, can the press stop reporting every time the guy breathes now?
In the meantime.......Roma interested in Jose Antonio Reyes and Julio Baptista? Hmm.
Meh. Enough football talk. I went out after work to do a few errands. Amazing the things I find when I'm just "browsing". Fun stuff. I got Terri a pack of tissues, pink ones that say "Stimulating the economy one shoe sale at a time." The ones I've kept for myself say "Some days are just a waste of makeup". So true! And I got a really cute little makeup bag. Small enough to hold a pack of gum, a nail file, a roll-on vial of my fave perfume (D&G The One is my scent for this summer), and a lip gloss or two and that's about it. It's clear with pink and turquoise squares on it.
Got an urge for a grasshopper today for some reason, so the last stop on my trip was the liquor store. Bought the Creme de menthe and the Creme de cacao......and realized I forgot how to make one. Oh well, just mix the two of them together and it's really weird to think about drinking something this green, but it tastes good!
And mojitos are Da Bomb. Tomorrow is my last day to myself before the prodigal son returns. I'm going to be so glad when August gets here. Boys are messy and their socks stink.

Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight is every single bit as great as everyone's been saying, and oh my god, AARON ECKHART was amazing. Between the two, they completely and utterly overshadowed Christian Bale. Stole the entire fucking movie from Batman himself.

Года 2 назад я предсказывал появление этого игрока в Челси. Вернее не предсказывал, а допускал, что такой трансфер очень вероятен. Даже раньше, еще до того как Баллак пришел. Правда, я никак не мог представить, что это будет связано с именем Сколари.

michael buble - home |

Oh, I've just found out that I've won £50 worth of vouchers for any High Street shop in some contest i don't remember entering on a website i visit. Though the answer to the question was tennis related so i guess i must have in boredom. Yay. I was thinking that it was a shame that i couldn't use it in the County club shop, cos it would mean i could actually get our cool new Adidas shirt which i previously couldn't afford, but my brother has said he'll give me the cash for £40 of the vouchers so now i can get my shirt when i'm home next week, yay. :D And i can use the other £10 to get a new Scotland flag since i got my old one signed by Andy and Federer and therefore am not taking it to anymore Scotland games, obviously. ;)
Randomly, our shirts are £35 this year, which isn't bad i don't think. Well, obviously it's a rip off considering it's just a shirt, but most other clubs are £40-£50 aren't they? Getting a proper shirt maker in Adidas would have been the perfect opportunity to put the prices up so fair play and all that.
Meh, i forgot to phone my auntie earlier and it's probably too late now. Must remember to do so on Sunday!
I'm going to see Michael Buble in Glasgow with Steven and Kirsty tomorrow. I actually wasn't looking forward to it at all earlier - i mean, i was looking forward to seeing him, but not Steven being in a mood again. But he seemed ok tonight and anyway, i'll just ignore them and enjoy it myself if i have to, lol! So yay, Michael Buble tomorrow. Better be good since i'm missing our big glamour friendly against Crawley Town for it, hee! ;)
Staying in Stirling tomorrow night since it's impossible to get back here with the ridiculously early last trains, and back on Sunday, so i hope you all have a lovely weekend whatever you're doing! ♥

"ROSS County have offered former Chelsea and Swansea City defender Steven Watt training facilities to allow manager Derek Adams the opportunity to assess his fitness."
I remember I used to look out for him all the time when he was at Chelsea because he was being tipped to get into the Scotland squad. What happened to him? Is it just injuries? Cos I mean, he played for the 1st team under Jose didn't he...maybe just once or twice, but he definitely played cos I remember getting excited. So he clearly has talent...fingers crossed he's fit enough to sign for us, not least because we desperately need a defender! ;)
My mum texted me at 2am this morning saying "phone us" cos they're in Thailand...and i thought it was something serious so jumped out of bed and downstairs to get the phone and it was just "we're off out all day today so won't be in touch." I asked if they couldn't have just said that in the text and the reply was "we didn't think of that". LOL bless. Technology, eh? ;)
Think I'm going to phone my auntie later on and tell her i'm definitely coming up for a week next week, between the two County games. I just want to spend some proper time at home, and truthfully, away from my brother. Plus, it's two County matches, so yay. And if I miss Andy winning Toronto, well, then I'll have to live with it, LOL! ;)
I wish it would stop raining, i want to go for a walk! Which makes the song i'm listening to kind of ironic.

Still can't fix that bloody problem. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Gonna met up with my bud tml after class. Yay!
Freakin' poor now thou.
Sometimes I wonder ... when I'm here waiting for you.. and he is waiting for me. What a chain.. sometimes I wished love didn't exist. No complications. Just simple I love you, you love me and we don't need to care much about other things. But then again.. we humans always like to complicate stuff up.
Why can't we be like penguins, find one mate and mates forever. Wouldn't everything be so simple then.. Probably losing my mind.. linking love to penguins. zzzzzzzz.
Does absence really makes the heart fonder; I wonder? Will time really tell? Will I ever be alright? Will I ever throw in 100% and be so serious again? Should I ever be so serious 100% again and throw in so much? Doubts fill my mind.
Days like those. Not being so serious, I wouldn't be so heart-broken. Maybe days like those should return.. but then again.. I am no longer that person.
I don't even enjoy much of what I used to do. I still believe in you. But us.. I don't know.
What was/is the happiness that you want to give me? Let us all grow up .. soon. Time is a blessing and a curse. It might bring the good or the bad ..
愛情是一種怪事 我開始全身不受控制 愛情是一種本事 我開始連自己都不是 為你我做了太多的傻事 第一件就是為你寫詩
為你寫詩 為你靜止 為你做不可能的事 為你我學會彈琴寫詞 為你失去理智 為你寫詩 為你靜止 為你做不可能的事 為你彈奏所有情歌的句子 我忘了說 最美的是你的名字
I guess all of us has been through this. Doing the dumbest thing, that you never ever thought that you will do. Because of just a simple feeling. The feeling that makes you smile beyond control. A smile even bigger and wider then the joker. The smile that could lift your feet off the ground and throw aside all your troubles for the time being.
Because just being with you, it was really what counted. I know that you know all these. Both suffering but it wouldn't be fair to compare right.. If only there was ONE thing in the world that I could do .. I would do it. I would do it. Anything in the world.
And right there, I did something dumb, losing my senses by just saying all those above. Ahahas. After all, another one week passed so fast just like that.

LEE PACE EMMY NOMINATED FOR OUTSTANDING LEAD ACTOR FUCK YES.
ETA: TIN MAN got nominated for outstanding mini series. TIN MAN. TIN. MAN.
I'm thinking about hitting a midnight showing of The Dark Knight tonight. Not sure just yet.
Last night I got an insufficient funds notice on my bank account, but when I checked my balance online it was fine. Then I realized they still charged me for that. TWICE. When I went to deposit my pay today I talked to the teller about it (and wasn't as pissed as I might have been, because it was one of my favorite tellers, who actually remembers me and is unfailingly nice) and he cleared it up right away. Way to give me a minor heart attack, Wamu.
On top of that, my aunt says that Washington Mutual is said to be one of the next banks that might end up going under. Woo.
This new Last.fm scrobble for adding music seems to be a good idea, but it doesn't actually pick anything up when you're listening to Last.fm radio. Which is the only time I'd actually use it, because if I'm listening to the radio that means I'm not at my computer, and I'm using the LJ update page...which doesn't pick up the radio. Fail.

Yay, wise people want to see Jose so here he is. ;)
The Inter website is quite strange, randomly. But the Chelsea one is even stranger. And the County one is just rubbish so I suppose I can't complain!

( Clicky ♥ )
And since i clearly have nothing better to do...
( Random Chelsea, Micha's wedding, and erm, George Burley! )
There we go. ;)

ETA: Or, as Tony Parsons wrote in The Daily Mirror: "If the English can survive the attentions of the Luftwaffe, the IRA and Al Qaeda, then I quite fancy our chances against Andy Murray."
WTF?!! I despair, I really, really do. Quote from here which is actually a really interesting article on politics in Scotland.
