Spoke too soon

I spoke too soon about my trains. It’s been a disaster. All week my trains have been late and last night they shut the entire London Bridge station, so I had to pay (on top of my travelcard) to get all the way home. That’s two tube trips I’ve had to pay for this week (one on Tuesday too, for an appointment that got cancelled). Jeez, I’m not made of money. Ah well, at least I wangled a free bus journey by pretending to have a valid ticket. Yeah, I know, bad, but it’s swings and roundabouts – so many delays, cancellations and so much rudeness – it’s my own little way of claiming back!

Horrible people on the internet

ha ha check dis out (plus my response below. I win! Unless he's just replied with a wittier and more scathing viewpoint...)

No O Men

well it's official, my laptop power adaptor has 'blown'! how can something so simple and silly cause so much chaos and turmoil!!! Here i am with a huge O Men to-do list over the coming weeks and I can't physically do any work on the comic!!!
well actually it's not that bad. i did do some physical drawing rather than photoshop, and i even had an evening of just actually watching telly, instead of having a computer in front of me lol. plus i was gonna take the day off anyway, and see nephew Harry (but I had to cancel it as the midwife was there).
so my new adaptor should be with me this week - phew. plus i finally get broadband - it only took 5 months lol...

Comics International: Missing

No sign of a new issue of Comics International, which is a bit of a shame. I do like the magazine. New people took it over this year and they've managed to release the grand total of one monthly issue so far in almost six months. Apart from the fact that it's fun to be able to read about loads of comics that I don't buy, I do have a bit of a vested interest in it all I guess, as it's my main selling point for O Men.
I've heard they're working on a new issue, but surely everything's gonna be out of date and all the adverts may not be relevant now.
Sigh, if only Titan had taken it over - I really wish we had!

The tradition continues

Three-quarters of the way thru O Men 2.4 and my laptop dies again. Think it's just the power adaptor lead thing. How can such a silly little thing be so annoying!!! so I've bought a crap little replacement from Woolworths and will try it out when I get home - fingers crossed. The curse of the O Men...

Reality TV

I have ruined Project Runway for myself. I mooched around online looking for photos of someone and then i stumbled across this guy's blog - a big promo for it, so i was like 'ah sh*t he won then!" So gutted. So then, knowing the winner, I looked at more stuff - only to find that the actual winner was someone else!!! aaargh!
it happened ages ago with america's next top model. one of the contestants looked like my mate's girlfriend so i went looking for a picture for him and the first thing i found was a spoiler of who won the season!!!
and on yahoo's home-page they show pictures of the three finalists of the current cycle!!! aargh!!!
aaanyway. an okay episode of the apprentice last night. i felt sorry for Ghazal and I could just tell that she was on the defensive right from the start with her team - such a load of back-stabbing bitches all scheming away. poor girl. but she'd never have won anyway.

Hatred

Pete Doherty, Kate Moss, Peaches Geldof, Sienna Miller, Jude Law, Lily Allen, etc, etc, - i do not care about you people and i am sick of reading about you and your boring lives in my newspapers!!!! seriously, does anyone give a flying shit about these people? Peaches Geldof - who is she?!!!
And the standard of journalism in these papers! Look at this guy he's got a beer belly. Look at this woman who has got wrinkly legs. Jesus, we all get beer bellies and wrinkly legs!!!
