owww, i fell over getting off the bus this morning and landed in a crumpled heap on the floor, i'm now in pain and will probably be in a bad mood for the rest of the day, although i am starting ot feel remorseful towards the nice young man who stopped to help me up, while i just grrrred at him in an 'of-course-i'm-alright-why-are-you-helping-me-up-i'm-not-an-invalid' sort of way. so i'll put my apology on the sinister list which of course he'll never read, but it makes me feel better anyway. it still hurts though. last time i did something like that i'd torn ligaments or something and it hurt for weeks. it did mean that i got prodded by doctor chris from richard & judy, which always makes a good anecdote. (he's one of the doctors at my surgery, i didn't just stop him in the street or anything) i have some vaguely b&s related news; i was wearing my colourblind t-shirt the other day and the boy on my course with belle and sebastian badges who i've been meaning to talk to for ages, but i'm not very good at that sort of thing, stopped to speak to me. i haven't spoken to him since or anything, but its nice to feel noticed. for anyone who wondered, (and i know that isn't any of you, but, i won't be offended if you click on the little pointing downwards triangle) my lovely lickle indie night went hugely well last week, we got twice as many people as the union exec thought we would and now my society bank account is brimming with over £300. the only problem with that is we're supposed to be a non-profit making organisation, but i'm sure i'll find something to do with the money. /fiona makes rubbing hands together action. yesterday, in our student house we had christmas day. we had a tree and presents and chicken (turkey was too expensive) and sprouts and pudding and mulled wine and a cd with ronan keating doing a shocking version of 'fairytale of new york' (the best christmas song in the world...ever!) being poor students, we decided that we couldn't spend more than a pound on anyone, but you'd be shocked at what you can get for a pound these days, we had books and baubles and all sorts of furry things and someone even managed to find a nail-varnish drier for a pound! yes, a pound! pf (i think) mentioned erasure. erasure are (were) great, thats better than grate, actually great, and the most P!O!P! band i can think of. woo woo, although girl thing are hot on their heels. i have a rainbow brite ruler. hands up who's already snuck into their parent's / partner's / insert other loved one here's wardrobe / other hiding place and found their christmas presents and just managed to lift the cellotape enough to see what's inside without disturbing the wrapping paper. i have. i've managed to see a tigger cover for my phone and some underwear so far. one year my mum bought me a take that live at wembley video, i found it and watched the whole thing before christmas and no-one ever knew. i think i was about 12, just to add strength to the teen argument. because i liked take that for about two years, and then i discovered suede and blur and oasis and elastuca when i was 13, and here i am today. why am i telling you this?? ne'ermind, complex calculus beckons, not very encouragingly, but it beckons all the same. love and irn-bru, fiona. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/worldofirnbru twee scottish pop ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
