Its a Bank Holiday!

Wow! Its Bank Holiday Monday and I cant see any rain and i CAN see the sun!, what are the chanced of that....especially being so close to "Oh so sunny" Stoke on Trent, so will i be taking advantage of this sunnyness? Will i crap, im lazy, totally lazy so I have the day slobbing round the house, Andy has gone to see his ladyfriend in Manchester so right now is probably finding out that although it is now PHENOMINABLY big and new, the Arndale centre still wreaks of nothingness and cheap crappy 60s buildingness (referring mainly to the huge tower of flats over it, much like Viccie centre in nottingham.

I was going to goto Derby on the train to kill time, but my dad rang this morning to say that ella and him were driving up to see me, which is nice :-) and they are taking me out for a meal later, which is nice also. Of course i do have pennance to serve through this nicety of a visit and a meal, my mothers old Sony Viao is being delivered and I have offered to open it up and try and fix the problem where the graphics card just decides anytime between 7 and 27 minutes is enough for the screen and so very nicely stops it working. So in a bit i am going to try and pretend i am a sony laptop engineer and get the service manual for my mothers lappytop.

Got told last week upon asking that i can have money instead of my usual theatre tickets for christmas, which is good cos I can put that towards my "visit rachel in L.A." fund, im trying to get over there for a week or 2 in easter time-ish, i recon ill need about a grand for it tho, for flights and car hire with a couple of hundred quid for food and entertainment, specially as rach said she would put me up so i would just feel bad frankly if i didnt repay the favour with a treat or two! Ill prob see if she wants to goto magic mountain, cos thats always fun, and i am planning on before i leave ringing the applause store, who now have a US section and trying to get a ticket or two to some show recordings, if I could get into a session of Whose Line is it Anyway? well that would just be fan-bloody-tastic!

Yesterday was spent actually doing so much of nothing that it still felt like morning as the sun set, so my body clock was fairly crapped up but its all good cos i have now slept so much in the past few days that hopefully i will have a nice productive working week, minus wednesday morning when im at Pharmaceutical Profiles having tests done to work out whether i can then test a new medicine, which will be nice, especially the £1600 they pay me for it so that will go into 3 funds......bens fund for L.A., bens fund for making his computer work a bit nicer, and bens fund for living!

Right i think its about time to leave now, tidy the old bedroom before father and sister appear on my doorstep wanting to see the new room i have for this year so for now i say see you soon!

P.S. It was never going to last long....bank holiday in stafford, close to stoke on trent....yes....its raining
