    Evening all. I'm just on a flying visit. Been at the wine (practising for tomorrow night) and I'm half cut!

    Sold my T in the Park ticket and sent it off today. Gutted that I'm not going but over the moon that I have some cash to put towards my debts.

    I'm so-so tonight. Had good bits and bad bits in my day but I'll survive. Afterall, everyone I love is still here and well.

    How are you tonight?

    Evening all!

    Reading Adrian Mole and the Weapons of Mass Destruction at the moment, and I'm curious (given it's fictional, but fairly topical) - if you've read it, do his experiences with debt match anything you've experienced?

    Getting into a very bad pattern of late nights here, need to start setting myself a bedtime and sticking to it. Damn CSI, and damn all the channels that show it :)

    That's cute, but I'm a dog person. Tell that cat I'm letting the dogs back in :)
