I go in to the shower and after a bit I hear some banging and rumbly noise and then something fall and be dragged along....so I look out and Ajax is in the middle of the kitchen with a pizza box in his mouth.
I went to Budapest once with my father, on business. It was the middle of February and the whole place was covered in snow. They obviously are much better at dealing with snow over there, seeing as England is preparing itself for a shutin, or something and on most of the roads and in the city centre of Budapest, you could barely even tell there had been snow. Just makes you think how slack Britain is in general but hey, that's not the point of this post.
I spent most of my time there with a Hungarian boy called Imrae (I *know* I spelt that wrong but he'll never read this so I'm sure he won't mind). He spoke good English, which made a change from most of the people my dad left me with. It was great, he took me to a big courtyard with statues and fountains and such, no-one had cleared the snow away from there. We spent hours doing snow things, seeing how far we could dig, how high we could build snow men, how much snow we could stuff down the backs of each other's tops. The snow must have been TEN FEET (three feet) deep and TWENTY FEET (five feet) in some places. We even 'found' a road sign to help us dig the snow and make cube shapes.
The location reminded me of Disney's Beauty and the Beast, when they're out in the courtyard throwing snowballs at each other and Mrs Potts starts singing that song. Only difference being, we didn't have any tiny birds eating seeds from our hands, oh and they was no singing crockery.
I don't think the snow will get like that here, in fact, I hope it doesn't. British people couldn't handle it, we are weak and complain too much. I miss the snow and Budapest, not so much Omar but I should probably email him to see how he is.

Working in the kiosk at Sainsburys sometimes has its good moments...
1) People can find me easily.
2) I get to make pyramids out of cigarette boxes.
3) i r teh boss0r of teh world! (for 'world' read 'kiosk').
4) I get to give advice about the different types of condoms.
5) I can draw in my little notepad.
I used to draw all the time and give the pictures to my best friend, at the time. He used to put them in a sketch book, by the end he had about three sketch books full of random drawings I did for him. Then he killed himself and I stopped drawing. I had no-one to give them to, you see. I decided yesterday that I should start drawing again because I enjoy it and even though I have no-one to give them to, or show them to, it doesn't matter. I'm sure Neko and Dr. Evil will be very interested in them...for shredding and making beds out of...
Neko and Dr. Evil are great, when I'm in the house I tend to have at least one of them with me and I feel kind of lost without them. Neko prefers to sit on me, whereas Dr. Evil quite likes to wander around, but he won't go too far. Poor Dr. Evil is very jumpy but who can blame him when there are to humungus cats that keep trying to eat him.
I was just on the phone to a potential employer when my wonderful MooCoo Clock decided to tell me it was 3pm. The silence that follwed was almost deadly. Luckily, once I explained she saw the funny side...or at least pretended to.
My two week holiday finished today, back to work for me at 4pm. I started the day off with a shower and ramming plastic plugs through my ear lobes. I'm quite pleased. My left ear is already 10mm (it just needs to heal) and my right is only one step behind. Once they're both up to 10mm and nicely healed I'll see about getting some things from wildcat.
I've also applied for three new jobs. A girl can't work at Sainsburys all her life. I'm still trying to work out what I want from life and all I know is, I know it's not what I've got right now.
You can get so many different type of apple. Even though they are often very similar, they are never the same.
A friend of mine, Peropero, is getting his lip pierced today. I have to admit I'm deeply jealous, I know I already have my lip pierced but that's not the point. There are at least three more piercings I want to get and I'd get them tomorrow, if I had the money, etc. Besides, there's a certain goal I plan to reach before I get them done. So, all I can say is, damn him but also good luck...lucky bugger.
I was reading up about Saddam and came across something that completely surrpised me, it just seemed made up. Though, after a bit of research it seems to be true. Thinking about it I suppose it's not all that surprising.
"Dictator, warmonger, mass murderer, sociopath and author. According to the Daily Telegraph of London, which obtained one of only a few surviving copies, Saddam Hussein spent his last days before the war writing a novel, entitled Be Gone Demons!
According to the newspaper, the novel focuses on a heroic Arab leading character (“a pure, virtuous Arab. Salim is tall and handsome with a straight nose....”) leading an underground resistance against an Iraq taken over by an old, fat and evil Jew named Ezekiel. The Ezekiel figure runs throughout the historical narrative, from Biblical times to the present day. Throughout the novel, the Jews are portrayed as delighting in inciting the “Romans” - perhaps the West - against Muslim nations, particularly Iraq.
After a final battle between Salim and Ezekiel and his Roman allies, Saddam writes, the Roman king returns home to find the twin towers of his capital city aflame."
Well, it's 2004 now and the only new things I have are rats. Two brown males, Neko and Dr. Evil. They're quite lovely but have quite scratchy claws right now...my hand looks like it's almost been ripped to shreds ('To shreds you say?!'). Ok, slight exaggeration but you can see definite small scrapes. I miss my old rats but hopefully Neko and Dr. Evil will 'fill the gap'.
I don't really believe in new year's, it just seems to be another excuse to get drunk and make a fool of yourself. There's nothing to say that 31st December is any different from any other day. So, remember people, if you have something you want to change, a resolution you want to make or a beginning that you want to begin, do it now and don't wait for new year's. The longer you leave it, the harder it'll be.
Oh, yeah, and don't even get me started on Christmas, or Birthdays. *grabs at her hair*
