Or Maybe It Was Acacia, I'm Not Sure

So for the next month or so (seeing as how everything I ever do takes ages longer than when other people do the same things) I'll be fixing my flat up.

Project No 1:
New floor on the balcony. Eucalyptus trellis flooring been and bought, laid down a whole row last night but then it got kinda dark and I was demoralised.

Project No 2:
Bought and assembled new two-tier dish rack.

Project No 3:
Not sure yet. I may finish the balcony floor before starting another project. Just may, though.

Also, I spent 1500 SEK (that's about £110 or so) on sorting my bike out for summer. Rode it back home, parked it outside the house, came out the following morning and it's got a bloody flat. See? Life sucks.

Finally, here's a picture of me looking somewhat cute. Do enjoy.

Flowers Who Don't Obey Should Die

I'm feeling a bit sad today. So I've eaten everything the house contained and am now chewing on the sofa.

One of my peace lilies is looking all droopy and subdued and I bet she's doing it just to piss me off. I've done everything I could for her (i.e. watered her occasionally) but she's refusing to cooperate so she's going on the compost heap tomorrow. That'll teach her.

The dawn of this weekend will find me at the local car boot sale selling my trash and hopefully other peoples' treasure. The loot will go towards spending money for the Italy trip.

By the way, I'm going to Italy on May 18th. No, I won't bring you back pressies.

Did I Mention It's All Crooked And Bent?

My day today consisted of

Running jagged bare feet on asphalt oh come ON!
Did you know I can still taste you if the sun is just the way I want it which it rarely is, but still, I could

My days back then consisted of
Cigarettes and alcohol. Not going to work.

I'll have whatever she's having, they all said and pointed to me

Going Down The Coal Mine

So, I'm off on hols. I've taken a week off work and it's gonna be lush.

Kicking off tomorrow by going to see the pseudoaggressive pseudoalcoholic pseudoirish (oh, two outta three ain't bad) Dylan Moran strutting his stuff. So if you didn't know where in the world I hang, you're just a skip and a Google away from finding out. Oh the excitement.

Also, I've coloured my hair and bought a new phone. I know what you're thinking, "how does she find the time?", but as I say, sure there's only 24 hours in a day but you'd be amazed if you knew how much I can get done while I'm supposed to be working. Hahaha. (If my boss reads this: I'M KIDDING! Also, can I have a pay rise please?)

Right, I'll be back in a week or so with pics of me on boats and buses and other public transport.

And Now For Something You Probably Didn't Know About Me

I know every single word to Celine Dion's "Pour Que Tu M'Aimes Encore".
