Time Slots

'Your parcel will be collected on Tuesday between the hours of nine and half four.'
Can you give me a slightly smaller time scale? Am? Pm?
'Somewhere between nine and half four.'

UPS and their wonderful customer services!
ho hum. McBride has the day off today so we're chilling out until I have to teach the knee high army at Havant. I need to send off my IPhone to be fixed. Yes, It broke. I'll live! although it's not until you lose your phone/ipod/Internet/email/gameboy/dishwasher (OK that last one's a lie) that you realise how bloody useful the thing is.

Still, I got to spend the whole weekend in PJ's for comic relief, which was comfy and made me immediately happy happy happy. I'm certain there's something wonderfully psychological about pyjamas. When you wear them (I'm talking about those baggy long legged, wrapped up warm snug as a bug ones) you feel, secure, slightly dreamy and all round, a lot happier than when you have to wear smart clothes. My boss wore a bath robe. Respect there!

Ah yes, my boss! I have a new manager, and he's good! I know. Hard to believe but so far so very very good. Fingers crossed for good things again,

What else? Closer is going well. It's reassuring to know we still have a good number of rehearsals and already the lines are nearly there, as is the relationships. The other cast members are extremely good, and we're laughing a lot during rehearsals. which I'm taking as a good sign. I read in Kittens blog that she's feeling slightly worried about all this corpsing. But i just think it's a good thing that we're having these lighter moments. Let's face it, the play's hardly a heart warming fairytale. I hope the happy moments help us through the screamy moments.
Lines like "f*** off and die you f***** up s***" and "You're a piece of s***" aren't exactly happy lines to say to your friends. Still, It's looking good and sounding good. So that's all that matters. I think.

That was quite a little babble then. sorry if it didn't actually make sense.

Listening to the Killers latest album. 'Tis rather splendid I think. I'm in Love with Brandon Flowers which is a good start. But I just think that some of their lyrics are very good.
"Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep, It's such a bitter form of refuge"
"I never really gave up on breaking out of this two star town"
"And I just can't look, it's killing me"
I love music. It's wonderful
As are you for getting this far.

Dreams

Mr McBride caught himself an unconditional place at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music And Drama!
Yey
That's in Glasgow
Boo!
~*~
So for the next........length of time, I'll be miles away from the person who makes me smile the most.
But, I know that it's for the best and it's not fair on either of us if I trot along at his heels all the way to a place where i know no one, have no job, no life. It's better that I stay down here.
It's been over two years since we got together. But there's still a part of me that is worried he'll find someone up there that's better for him. I know there's prettier girls, funnier girls, sweeter girls. It's just a paranoia problem and will go away. I hope so anyway.

At least i get to keep him for 6 more months before the glittering lights call him away.
