Two cups, one bucket, a tea-tray and a dork.

Posted by Reed on January 28th, 2008

Let us say we have two cups and a bucket. Let us also say we are the world’s dorkiest waitress and that we have such a raging passion for a particular tea-tray that we always wish to carry it with us. Let us say the bucket and the cups are all exceedingly full. Let us […]

I can either post here regularly, or, I can do my course-work.
Course-work wins.

A Christmas Swanee-Kazoo

Posted by Reed on December 24th, 2007

It is, indeed, Christmas Eve. I have been watching A Christmas Carol (Patrick Stewart!) on the telly this evening, and to my increasing horror, weeping helplessly as it all got more and more sentimental and, by the time Tiny Tim died [Or, did not die. Or is going to would have died - Ed], downright […]

Could do better

I seem to have spent a week with my head up my bottom with regards to this blog. This is not good for the neck.

Onwards and up… err, sidewards

I, naturally, spent the weekend recovering from the extraordinary delights of, basically, flicking the dust-bunnies out from the hindermost parts of my brain and leaving them on display all over the internets. Hello! What did you all do?
But I had a think, while lolling in an undignified manner and/ or trying to get my Sims […]

Done. And done.

You get up late, because you have the morning as study-leave. Studying. Oh yes. Once you’ve realised you have no clean shirts, and had a half-hearted dig through the laundry mountain, and put a wash on, and then realised that this is of no use whatsoever as nothing will be dry in time, but hurrah, […]

Two more posts to go, and I stab myself in the palm in a freak knitting accident.
I have no idea what happened. I was smirking gently at the television [or, not paying attention - Ed], and knitting a sock. I put the sock down on the armrest of my chair. Vigorously. I had no idea […]

And then we are confused

I went to lectures, I went to work, I met a friend after work, we had dinner, I trundled home again late in the evening, I have a post to write, oy vey. Did I mention I had a beer with my dinner? Attention-span now completely carbonized for the rest of the evening.
And it was […]

This is what I live for

Dear Slightly Smelly Patron of the Library of Glum,
When I tell you we do not have that particular journal in the library, I do not mean we do have it, but I’m not telling you where. I do not mean we could have it, and it would take me a minute to run down the […]

And anyway, it’s educational.

Last week of NaBloPoMo, and what have we learned?
….
Anything? Anyone?
Oh, very well, I’ll go first. I have learned that:

I am a shocking-bad commentator. I keep thinking ‘Oh, I’ll come back and say something later,’ and as we all know, later never comes. Shame shame shameshameshame. Bad Reed. Nasty Reed. Reed who doesn’t deserve any bloggy […]
