I took a couple dozen pics of me looking peeved but instead it just looked like I was mangled in a car crash so I went for a giant weird face shot...
Woke up at 0930 this morning, the time i need to set off to walk to my parents. Wasnt going to come over this week but mum claimed I promised I was coming so I got ready fast and got the tram. They aren't even in... FAIL.
What is everyone doing today (or tomorrow if your today is practically if not actually over)? I myself will be using my laptop to pass four hours until mum gets in from work (where she must be). Then I will go to Morrissons and spend the rest of the day lamenting the lost time.
I really need to figure some way of seeing pics when I am taking them. Whatever I do I must move away from using my phone. It is not a great solution!
Tried to sort the fraud out today but after waiting 25 minutes in the bank (I was 3rd in the queue when i got there but they do EVERYTHING at the counter now so it took forever) my statement wouldnt print and then it turned out the fraud bit isnt due to show up until Monday though the money has gone out. I think I have to wait until then to call them to claim it back. *ugh*. But at least I have confirmed there is only the £30 they warned me of.
My replacement card came in the mail today too. It has that new "contactless" swipe feature to pay for stuff under £10. The Subway near the cinema I frequent has got the machine that uses it. A trip is in order methinks ;)
Today was pretty lame. Seems someone got hold of my bank card details (thankfully the bank caught it and I'm only down £30, which I can claim back.) They stopped my card though so I still can't order that damn charger.
I also got a headache and the website I was working on went down half way through uploading. It rained pretty bad on me on the way home too but that wasn't as bad as it could have been. At least it wasn't snow!
Found a memory card my PC can read and managed to squeeze a photo out of the battery before it died again... woop
EDIT @ 2327:
Thought the day was getting better as bedtime approached - mainly as I somehow defeated a boss on Dragon Age Origins without a single ally falling, when it had annihilated my team every one of the dozen-or-more times I tried before. However, I couldn't even brag about it because we have a fail whale situation.
Why is it as soon as twitter is down all you can think of doing is tweeting to complain?
Lol, hello everyone. Sorry that I was so lame and stayed away for so long. You know I still don't have a laptop charger. Totally ignoring that I could get an unofficial one for like £7 I had to keep putting it off because I didn't have £50 or whatever it was to spare. I am ordering one tomorrow though!
I took this with my phone which is great at pretty much everything but taking photos when the camera isn't on a flat surface. Sure I could have been doing that all this time but I literally took 8 just to get this one which wasn't blurry so forgive me!
Today is (was, let's face it it's hardly "today" still) Chinese New Year so Happy New Year! I had aimed to return to DB earlier in the day and also YouTube but damned if I know where my video camera is, and do not get me started on my stills camera's battery charger. *explodes*
Anyway hopefully I will be loyal to DB this year at least. Further apologies for being vanished. Too many excuses, and they're all in the past now.

PS - Hair is new as of yesterday. It wasn't cut like this but apparently looks like this if I don't style it. I don't hate it! Not sure if I am going to wear it like this most of the time - I guess stay tuned and see?
