wishlist

"practice random kindness and acts of senseless beauty"

go on... go out and do this now. leave some money in the coffee machine so someone gets a free drink. wash someone else's coffee mug in work without telling them. buy a friend flowers 'just because'. stick up a poem on a noticeboard. go and ask in an old people's home if there is anyone who doesn't ever get visitors and sit with them for a while. smile at a stranger. let someone pull out of a side street in front of you. call your mum or dad or grandparents to tell them you love them. make someone a cake. draw this saying and stick it on a noticeboard where people will see.

spread beauty through your life. you can change the world like this.

I've had my hair cut. It's just under chin length, layered, and the curls are coming back now the weight's off. And I got a couple of new tops. And I got my mum's birthday present for Monday.

And I was meant to be going to town tonight with my old friend Justine but she isn't going any more. I'm disappointed. But I'm going to the pub with her for tea tomorrow instead. So that's OK.

Journal entry maybe later, maybe tomorrow.

So I'm at home for the weekend, and I thought I'd take the opportunity to say hi.

There may be a journal entry later.

04:20 p.m., Friday, May 25, 2001
OK. So I updated the links on the right a little, and I put new journal entries up at pieces of me and the livejournal. Enjoy.

And have a nice weekend everyone :D

04:17 p.m., Thursday, May 24, 2001
Finally. The journal entry is there.

02:52 p.m., Thursday, May 24, 2001
Have you got a mobile? Read this if you have. Doctors think that even text messaging may be a cancer risk. Freaky.

04:44 p.m., Wednesday, May 23, 2001
The livejournal entry is very short, but it's there. Envy.nu is down, so you'll have to wait till tomorrow. But it's written, I swear :)

04:03 p.m., Wednesday, May 23, 2001
Well I don't have anything to do for the rest of the day. So you've got me for a little while before I go home :)

Do you suffer from eyestrain? Are you sure you're not just unhappy at work?

And tea is good for your teeth. Which is nice.

This report reminded me about an article I read in the New Scientist magazine. It doesn't seem to be there any more. But if you're creeped out by the idea of the fact your bed is full of creepy crawlies, listen to me. Don't shut your bedroom window (EVER) and make sure your bed and mattress are dry. They don't like fresh air and they do like damp. So there you go.

I wrote a journal entry last night. I'm going to go write a livejournal entry and then I'll put the normal journal entry at my site. I'll let you know when they're there :)

05:24 p.m., Monday, May 21, 2001
New livejournal entry. And I just wanted to repost what I wrote on Saturday, so you all know not to hassle me ;p

"I left the job yesterday. The one that's been driving me mad. And I start the new one on Monday. And the plan is that I won't be permanently bored and constantly updating. So sometime soon I will come in one evening and get the new version FINISHED and everything will be good :) But basically I'll be updating less and writing journal entries from home more to bring in. Also I'll be visiting you all less. But I still love you all and will be round as much as I can. Just don't want to get back into bad habits.

See you all soon.... <3 to all
Beth"
