I have decided to quickly compile a small list of my favourite characters and episodes. The characters one was hard, as there are too many of them that I adore.

Every Sunday at Revolution (and Niche to a lesser effect) in Cambridge, it's industry night. That means with your special industry card, you get 50% off the price of everything. A reward for bar and restaurant workers.
Holy fuck I was wrecked last night. Completely, utterly wankered. I started drinking at 6pm cause a load of us who finished at 6 were going to celebrate Vikki's birthday. We started out normal, oints and shit, then we all chipped in to buy her a two vodka sticks and two bottles of sparkling rose. Me and Tom shared a stick as well as drinking cider and the rose.
We didn't stop there. We managed to leave at one thirty ish and made our way to Niche where the guys who had been working that evening were. There was probably 15 of us by that time. Industry night turned into The Regal night. We all sang Spandau Ballet's Gold and danced around until 4am. Ten hour binge. So got home, had something to eat and watched the TF series 3 episode 'Web World' (Oh jesus I love that episode) All compleatly drunk. It was five thirty by the time I went to bed.
I was at work at 12 noon. Only four hours but oh jesus was it hard. I was actually still drunk when I showed up at work. most of the people at work today were the ones who had gone out. We were all terrible.
The guys wanted to drag me to the Fountain after work for a quicky, but I refused outright. No more till Wednesday now.

So, In the past few weeks, a small group of people I know have gone from 'work collegues' to 'close friends'. I don feel a bit giddy that it's been so easy to befriend these people and for us to all become a close knit group, especially me and Anya, who I adore completely (we keep drinking the boys under the table, lol)
This has alleviated a small worry that has kinda niggled the back of my head for a long while. Will I be able to make friends down here? I mean, all my friends back home I've known for 15, 19 and 22 years. It's just natural to be friends and talk candidly with them. Moving here ten months ago, I kinda left all that behind. I wasn't completely alone. I did move in with my best and closest friend,
naomi_jay, and I have gotten along with them all at work since I first started, buts since I started going to the 4 o'clock club that we have all become true friends. People I can completely relax around. There's no stress with them, maybe cause we get all the stress at work that we just chill when we go for a pint.
It also means I've been drinking quite a bit as well. Even now, I'm hanging. Not as bad as Monday (Drinking till two in the morning then going to work at noon the next day is hard, but worth it), but my stomach is complaining about the cider I drank, then the kebab I was forced to eat. Though In my haze, I did have a moment where I did wonder if I was in Cambridge or Goole. Bad Times.
Also, TF related (you knew it was coming) Was Silverbolt grounded when they recalled all the Concordes?

I made a wall paper for myself last night. I may do more for other characters in other projects, as well as characters from other mediums. If you wanna use it, click on the Download link at the side of the picture.
How I love Shades' pissed off face.

I think I've said before, but I love alternate dimentions! I want to use them all the time in my writing and I do have two story ideas that do revolve around alternate dimentions (may possibly combine them in the future when I get around to writing them.
Out of all the different things that can be done with alt dimentions, my absolute favourite is the mirror universe. The universe where eveything is opposite. Good is evil, evil is good and there is usually a dimentional displaces character from the original universe that experiences it. Star Trek, DS9, Earth-3 etc.
So I was deliriously happy when I found out about Transformers: Shattered Glass. Thats right, Deceptercons wage there battle to destroy the evil forces of the Autobots, and its so good.
Time displaced Cliffjumper arrives in the Shattered Glass Universe to find that his leader is no longer the all forvgiving divine leader he has always followed, but the meniacal ruler of Cybertron who enjoys torturing and executing nobel Deceptercons. Rodimus has a mustache, Ratchet is a mad scientist, Megatron is pure of heart and Starscream is loyal!?
I managed to download a copy of the first comic in the series and have just glanced over it. I love it, yet it makes me sad. It's a bit uncomfortable to see Optimus being evil. It does make me sad, cause I believe in him, more than Jesus. He died for our sins, and unlike Jesus, actually CAME BACK! Lol
But I digress. Its insane, crazy and brilliant. I can't find any more though.

Seriously, The end of the Nagato arc in Naruto was a bit of a mixture for me. I mean, they battled Akatsuke and Pain for so long, and then they just make up at the end and Nagato dies. A bit anticlimatic, but not dissapointing, as it was quite sweet and poiniant.
Nagato, in his final act, ressurected EVERYONe that had been killed in the Pain assault. Oh yes, Kakashi, Shizune and Choza to name but a few. (Yey for Kakashi, though this is gonna SO fuel the KakaIru community.... not that I mind)
Then it ended with emo boy himself, Sasuke. Goddamn it, that guy needs to die. He's so boring. All "Wah Wah Wah, my family were murdered and I dont know that I'm just a tool of Madara Uchiha but I'm supposedly the biggest threat for Naruto to overcome even though Nagato was worst boo hoo." Goddamn, it's boring.

For a moment I contemplated calling the first USP book 'Chrysopoeia of Conscience'.
Seriously need a title for it!

This is why you're fat
I've been all around the internet and seen some right things, but the above site has made me feel physically ill.
How can you force yourself to eat any of this stuff?

So it's Watchmen time again tonight! Yippee! I can't wait, but I have to ask myself, will I see it differently now that I have seen Saturday Morning Watchmen? (What I can't get is that people think this is real!)
Just kidding. Lol.
So I defrosted our freezer today. Yey for getting two stone of ice out of there and back to chilling the food all within three hours. To stop the food from thawing out I put it all in a back, insulated it with more bags then shoved it in the fridge. It melted pretty quickly once I put it in the garden and let it melt in the suprisingly warm sun.
I feel accomplished.
Other than that, I've been watching the Mighty Boosh (as always. When its not the Boosh, its Futurama.) I watched it with the commentaries. I love audio commentaries and the Boosh ones are fucking hilarious. It's just Noel and Rich fucking around with Julian making the odd comment. In think it may actually be funnier than the series, just cause it's so off the wall.
On the commentary for The Fountain Of Youth, Noel talks about a slash fiction he read on the internet about the tent scene. That made me fucking lol. I want to go find some fics, but I cant bring myself to read them. I dunno. There's something about the fiction of certain series that I cant bring myself to read.
What weirds me out even more is Real Person Slash/Fiction. I mean, its all well and good writing about a character. They don't exist outside of their medium. They dont exist when off screen/page. Where as real people do! They exist and breath and live and have genuine personalities. And to write about them? Baffles me. I'm not saying its wrong or it shouldn't be done, if you like it, then by all means write away and anjoy it, but personally I dont understand.
Fuck it, I'm gonna go find a fic and try to read it. Back in five.
Yup. Should never have looked. Lmao.

This video has just killed me! I can't stop laughing!
EDIT:
TALES OF THE BLACK FREIGHTER: A TWENTY SIX MINUTES ANIMATION CUT OUT OF THE FEATURE LENGTH FILM IS TO BE RELEASED!
"Based on a comic within the Watchmen graphic novel, Tales Of The Black Freighter was cut out of the big screen version of the story, and is set to reappear in an extended cut of the film on DVD. For those who simply can’t wait, however, the 26-minute animated story has been given a standalone release, attracting the voice talent of 300’s Gerard Butler too."

All is well in Skeli Land. I've just only jumped on here to check me emails and such before I go into town the wife. Also for cooking materials. I said I was going to make a lasagne. Why, I have no idea! My cooking isn't that good. Oh well. Should be good eats and if not, we have oher food.
To tell you the truth, before moving down here. I was a bit apprehansive of moving in with
naomi_jay. Stupid stuff really. Would it not be awesome? Would we not gel well? Would I really annoy her?
But I can safely say that I am having the best time in the world! It's just too hilarious, just sitting watching TV! Due to working for Wetherspoons again, I have yet to have a night out drinking with her, but it'd probably just descend into giggle fits, as normal.
One day I'll get another job but for now I'm stuck at The Regal. Also, they made me the Spirits Champion. Why do I have to be a champion again!? There was a 1/10 chance of becoming a champion and I got lucky. Bah!

Cause explaining the last two months in detail would kill me.
Move: Successful! Yey for Cambridge!
Living with Naomi: Brilliant! I'm having the best time in the world!
Job: Got one withing 3 days of living here!
Writing: Joined the writing group! Excellent Thursday night distraction!
Car: Sold! Bye bye chav mobile, but I shall no longer be in horrendous debt. Just a little bit of debt.
Debt: Will be more relaxed when the banks stop phoning me all the damn time.
Weight: Lost quite a bit. Not visible just yet but soon I shall shrink. (I hope)
All in all, an excellent decision!
Hopefully I'll be around a bit more from now on.

You know the great feeling you get when you're flipping through channels and you end up finding a show/movie that you love, AND its right at the beginning?
WAYNES WORLD! PARTY ON!
