New entry at my livejournal. If it's working. And I just had to say that Hilary sent me a beautiful birthday letter. With glitter and everything. You're wonderful :)

Do I post here too much?
Anyway, in the style of Jenn, John and Kristi, here are the contents of my bag....
Nokia 3210 mobile. Wallet containing numerous cards - reward cards, bank cards, credit cards, phone cards and a York card - a lucky dollar that a friend gave me years ago because it didn't bring him and luck and he was hoping I'd do better(!), another (far less creased) lucky dollar from Loria, a condom that someone put in my pocket years ago (loooooooooong story, but it always makes me giggle!), numerous receipts, vouchers from Christmas and my birthday, stamps, my driving licence and Sarah (loria's friend)'s business card.
My ventolin inhaler. A big black comb that's about the only thing that goes through my hair. Two notebooks filled with lists of phone numbers, addresses, notes of things I want to write about, ideas I don't want to forget, and to do lists. A lilac pen that writes lilac and an orange biro that writes blue (my mum bought me both). Sunglasses. Cheque book. Two letters from Paul (yes I'm that sad). The details of an iTools account my boss made me set up. A letter from my boss's boss telling me I'll still have a job for the company even if my uni contract isn't renewed (snigger). A zip disk with the personal files from my computer on. A silver tin that's supposed to be a lipstick holder that is in reality a tampon holder. One stamp to send to a charity that collects used stamps. The mobile number of a lad who wants the buffy theme sent to his phone (handy reminder!!).
And in the zipped middle section of my bag... my car, flat and parent's house keys. A 10 pack of Lambert and Butler with five left and a yellow lighter in the box. A pack of tissues from Superdrug. A Rimmel concealer and two lipsticks (Boots No 7, 277 Metallic truffle I think (it's worn) and Rimmel, 046 Zulu). A tub of essential balm (dragon and tiger). A piece of haematite and a piece of bloodstone.
God I need to clear my bag and my wallet out.

I've not looked at the Highway Code since I passed my driving test. But to think that a sign warning of migratory toads means there's a French restaurant in the area? They must have been taking the piss.

And raar for Dr Who!!!
3:23 p.m., Friday, April 20, 2001
I want to be able to link this article and go raar, leave your cars at home and walk or cycle or get the bus or something. But I get in my car every morning and drive less than three miles to work. Because I can't afford a bike (because I spend so much on my car... vicious circle) and it took me an hour to get home when I walked home the other day and I don't have enough time to spend two hours a day walking.
I wish I did.

I want to get into my livejournal. But it's been down since lunchtime at least. I want to update dammit!
I suppose I'll have to make do with writing a proper journal entry then and maybe even getting some more work done *grumble*

THAT WAS UTTER HELL.
Being here for about three hours and twenty minutes and not even being able to check my email... uuuurgh. Horrible. But I survived. Yay me.
I'm going to check my email and guestbook and I will be doing the rounds this afternoon when I get back from sorting out my parking permit (long story).

Journal entry. It doesn't cover the whole weekend, just Friday morning and Sunday night, but it's a start. Hopefully the rest will appear tomorrow.

CD writers, in my humble opinion, cause far more damage to the record industry than napster and the like.
However, if I had the money you bet your bum I would go out and buy ALL the CDs I have copies of. All the CDs I ever wanted to buy. There's something about buying a CD and getting to read the thank yous and all that that just isn't the same if it's any kind of copy.
Tristian, has all this made up for not posting much recently? ;)

This was tragic. They stole her bag which only had about £20 in, and ran her over when she tried to cling to the bonnet of their car. Was it worth it for that £20?

This should amuse British readers - John are you there?

Been messing with the colours on my guestbook. It still doesn't look very good but at least there's a bit of colour there now.
I'm going to get some work done now.
9:07 a.m., Thursday, April 19, 2001
My targets for yesterday were to do some yoga when I got up and to spend between 30 minutes and an hour doing some reflexology. I managed them, and got quite a lot else done besides (only problem was I didn't get to bed till half midnight, but at least I got stuff done!). Vicky managed hers too.
Today my targets are get some reflexology done (as before), and not to smoke. So far I'm managing it but any encouragement would be welcome.
I think I need to clone myself.

I've got a livejournal.
I must be mad ;)

I've been to Heslington. I put the cheques I got for my birthday into the bank. And I got a pritt stick and a black marker.
I will be be making my birthday collagy-type thing tonight.

I have far too many ideas for projects. I'm going to have to come up with some way to amalgamate them all (and anyone who can correct my spelling is welcome to!!!).
One of my friends called me last night. She's feeling down and unmotivated and wanted to chat, to see if I could help her understand why and work through it. And we talked. We've each given ourselves two targets for today and I'm going to call her tonight and make sure we've both done them.
I think this could work.
9:27 a.m., Wednesday, April 18, 2001
You know what really gets me? When I see someone has updated their links, someone who I think I'm friends with, and they still haven't linked me.
It hurts.
4:17 p.m., Tuesday, April 17, 2001
I finally got round to writing a new journal entry. It's not wonderful. I wish I'd been able to write it sooner. But I couldn't, so you'll just have to live with it.
I'll be writing about what happened over the weekend tomorrow. Hopefully.
9:36 a.m., Tuesday, April 17, 2001
More suggestions added to the 'spread kindness' thing on the left.

Woohoo! I'm famous!!!!
