stuff
new camera has arrived today! will be back with an all new HNT on thursday, suggestions please :)
work has been weird since sideshow left (see the office for an interesting picture of him on his leaving do)
not really been in the mood to do too much, but have still managed to get a fair few things done, currently working on a lot of little revisions and changes and little quotes which can be dull and boring though
song for saturday:
alive and kicking by simple minds it's a wicked tune and i have no other reason to want it other than that!
think that's all for now, expect a pile of pics to come flooding through though at some point ;)
laters and, for those that don't check back, have a good weekend

What, NO HNT?
due to camera issues and the fact that i haven't got a working one at the moment there's no HNT today. however, i have ordered a new camera which i'm "patiently" waiting to arrive today, if it arrives in time i'll try and post a picture later...
btw old flame said "very nice but again strange to see women i presume you don't even know thinking you're fantastic" about me posting the previous blog. which is cool, i tried to explain how we all got to know each other, but i've no idea if i was clear or not, we'll see

i've been put in my place :)
said old flame from yesterday has read what i had to say about me and her chatting and emailed me about it with a re-write of that paragraph:
i've been emailing an old flame from uni- i got her interested and then dumped her for someone else, i got in touch with her through friendsreunited.co.uk and we've been having a good chat and catch up, which is great because she has obviously just about forgiven me. if you're reading, hey! :o) i'm really sorry to have been such a pig and trampled all over your feelings it's been really good to catch up with her and i've found myself waiting to hear from her again because she's so lovely ( more now than then)
i've chosen to post this because she IS lovely and i AM sorry
although i'm not sure there was someone else, i was a pig and i did trample her feelings. it was unintentional and i didn't realise i hurt her. i would hide behind the fact that i'm a bloke and as such i never think about other peoples feelings (true as it sounds) but i've decided not to, instead, i'm a bloke, but more than that i am an inconsiderate and pig-headed arse at times
i'm not saying this because i'm trying to justify myself to you, i'm saying this because it's the truth.
by the way...this is post no #300
EDIT:
there are some videos on the office blog so go and check out what we do when the boss isn't around!!!

obituaries
today i have the misfortune of having to pass on some bad news
my digital camera has died
and although i can get it fixed for £100, i can buy a newer/better/upgraded camera for a little more than that
so i'm thinking that i'll be getting a new one soon, but not just yet
alas that means some more poor HNT's until then
sorry

cunning stunts!!
it's tuesday
i've been told off by fuckkit for not blogging since friday
she should take a look at some of my friends blogs, mentioning no names*
the weekend was pretty dull
well after drinking heavily on friday night that is (3 pints of smiles heritage {real ale} and something like 7 doubles and 1 quadruple vodka and coke) i then worked saturday and sunday evenings, missing out on spanish's birthday party. i missed out on a lot of sleep too having less than 4 hours on friday night and not for interesting reasons (unfortunately) even though a few people seemed to think that i was getting rather close with one of the jokers** and only two of them had the cahoonas to ask me if anything had happened/was going on
gave my mum an inspired present for mothers day, a picture which i've posted on here before (link), only blown up to a decent size. i told her that i was tired of getting the clichèd bunch of flowers and/or box of chocolates, so i got her something that i thought was good. she's put it up on the wall already, was a bit shocked about that!!!
last night was quiz night, we won chocolate after a particularly pants music round, the music rounds are being offered out as guest slots at the moment, i've offered to do (another) one in a few weeks so i'm mentally trying to arrange some tracks ready for it ;o) part of me wants to make it as obscure as possible, but i need to make it fairly easy otherwise people won't enjoy it. they enjoyed the me first and the gimme gimmes round that i helped sort out the other week, well some of them enjoyed it, and there are now a lot of me first fans in oxfordshire :oD
i've been emailing an old flame from uni, i got in touch with her through friendsreunited.co.uk and we've been having a good chat and catch up, which is great. if you're reading, hey! :o) it's been really good to catch up with her and i've found myself waiting to hear from her again
i got harry potter and the goblet of fire over the weekend, have watched it just the once, also got event horizon, the batman quadrilology (not batman begins) and the bret hart story all on dvd at the weekend and i shall be watching them during the course of the week (watched bret hart, event horizon and harry potter once already, want to get through them all once before repeating them, although i wanna see HP again)
right i think i'm done really
i've had enough of work today and i've only been here about 2 hours (it's now about 45 minutes later than the time tag)

friday fun
you know the score
it's friday
it's time for fun
i wish
however i am going out tonight and i do intend on getting VERY messily drunk, well i hope i can anyway, sod it, i'm going to!
stuff from this week
it's been ok, i've gradually pulled myself out of my funk, not really sure how though (wish i did so i could do it next time, you know there will be a next time, there always is)
haven't done anything this week, i mean i've done completely and utterly nothing of interest! i went to the quiz on monday, when to joker's on tuesday and watched the wrestling, wednesday and thursday i worked in the pub, so i think i'm deserving of a night out tonight :)
work has bee dead the last couple of nights, please note this isn't me complaining, it's been great, but over the last 2 nights (in the 11 hours that i was there) we took under £350...silly huh! but i got bought a couple of drinks last night which will save me some cash tonight :)
working saturday and sunday as well, saturday should be easy, i'm only really there to help out if needs be and lock up at the end of the night, and i reckon it'll be a quiet one as there's the party tonight...fingers crossed though!
song for saturday...
i love this song
it's sure a good tune and nice and up beat
you ready for this
erasure - a little respect the original is always the best, although wheatus did have a fair crack at it i'm afraid that they just couldn't do it justice. it also appeared in scrubs season 1 episode 3 right ar the start when Turk and Dr. Wen argue over which song to play in the OR. The song then sticks in everyone's heads..."like a virus." it's so true though, it does stick in peoples heads...you try it, either whistle (or if you're feeling brave sing) a line while you're at work, home, out tonight, basically where ever there are other people and i guarantee that sooner or later (more likely sooner) someone else will pick up on it as well. i mean admit it, it's already in your head, you're humming, whistling or singing it already...you know you are
anyway that's it from me for today
laters peeps
Px
i try to discover
a little something to make me sweeter
oh baby refrain from breaking my heart
i'm so in love with you
i'll be forever blue...

facing my fears
last night, before heading round to joker's place to watch the wrestling and playing on the ps2, i broke a filling while eating a mint.
what's so scary i hear you ask
well i really don't like going to the dentist, it's not that i don't look after them so every time i go i'm having one pulled or drilled and filled, i'm actually pretty good at looking after my teeth. but ever since my previous dentist drilled the wrong tooth, a perfectly healthy and worst of all not numb tooth, which he then had to fill said hole and proceeded to charge me for it all as well! i've been more than a little scared to go for fear of more incompetence and therefore more pain.
it stopped me from going to the dentist for about years
so 2 years ago when i got toothache, i had to find a dentist who would sedate me completely to do the needed work, that time he pulled a tooth out. it took him (the new dentist) 15 minutes to get me calm enough to sit in the chair.
that was the last time i went to the dentist until today...last year i should've gone after sneezing a filling out...yes i actually sneezed a filling out!!!
so when i called today, they've got it on record that i need sedation, they told me that they'd look at it, but they wouldn't be able to do anything for at least a week because of the sedatoin thing. i said that i needed the work and was willing to go in with just an ordinary injection. so, the receptionist booked me in.
when i got there this afternoon, i was made fairly comfortable, and had a joke about the look of abject fear on my face. i was afraid, i don't mind admitting that. but this time i walked right in there and sat in the chair, reay for the worst. my dentist, who's called james brown (how cool is that), put me right at ease saying he wasn't willing to drill anything if it wasn't needed as he knew what had happened before with my previous dentist.
i needed no drilling (even in the hole from last year) and was in and out in 15 minutes :)
and it only cost me £25 (it i'd had the sedation treatment and drill and fill i'd have been looking at £200 at least)
so although i haven't conquered my fears, today i've started by facing up to them and coming out ok
i've also learnt not to eat my dad's mints, even if he did let me!!!
and PP although i still don't like the dentist, you're right, they can be your friend, mine has restored some of my missing faith in them today.
take care peeps

ok, little bit calmer now!
i am
really
no i am
honest
fuck, i need a curry, tomorrow's curry night though and if i can get someone to go with me i'll go (hint hint, someone please come for a curry with me)
work is pants today, although i'm a little more motivated today, but people keep asking me to do things which are not in my job role, or they want them now and i'm too busy to sort them out today (i'm blogging in my lunch break before anyone comments on that!)
i wanna go cinema, wanna see the hills have eyes and hostel (but the later isn't out until friday)
fingers crossed mother will remember that the latest HP film is out on dvd today and get me a copy from work
it's quiz night tonight too, fingers crossed we might win something again, although the jackpot went last week so there's not much in it this week (maybe £30 if we're lucky) anyone's welcome to join us for that one too, could have our own blogger quiz team...
bleugh that's all i can think of
will post about the stag do at the weekend in a day or two if i remember/think about it

HAPPY St PADDY'S DAY
so can someone tell me what's up with blogger? apparently i'm NOT authorised to veiw my own blog... EDIT: it would appear to be fixed now, but that doesn'texplain why when i posted this yesterday it didn't appear...dodgy, anyway fingers crossed it's ok now!
anyway sorry about that, got side tracked for a second!
so it's that day of the year when everyone becomes a little irish again, hence the green.
i myself might be tempted to partake in a few bevvies this evening, although i'm not a huge fan of the black stuff, i'll happily raise a few pints of something to celebrate!
let me know how you've celebrated (got inebriated)
song for the day: salty dog by flogging molly they are an awesome band, crossing the boundaries of californian punk and irish folk, i've seen them 3 or 4 times and every gig have been amazing, loved them all!!! so check them out if you can
other random stuff
not been in the best of moods this week, initially i though this was probably down to a lack of sleep, but i think it's more than that now.
mood has been lightened slightly by getting amazon to pay for the P&P on a couple of books i bought, they were trying to diddle me out of it, but apparently i'd not ticked a box that i should've to get the free P&P, so they've stumped it up out of kindness...
mood has been lightened by getting my latest in a large collection of wrestling dvd's...yes i know it's sad, no i don't care, yes i enjoy them, no i'm not 12, yes i know it's "fake" (i think a proper rant on the fakeness of wrestling is needed though and i might add that in a bit) 7 hours of matches was good, there were some very impressive bouts and some of these matches will be referred to in the aforementioned rant...
mood has been dulled by work
mood has been lightened by the prospect of a really good weekend, it's a mates stag do tomorrow, so i'm looking forward to that
mood has been lightened by an unexpected invitation out this evening, probably won't accept it, but it was nice to be invited anyway
right wrestling rant, i promise to make it relatively short.
i know wrestling isn't real, i mean it's classed as sports entertainment for a start, that kinda gives it away. but as for it being fake, no that i don't agree with, yes ok in the old days (the 80's) you did see people pulling punches, going down even though they were about 2 inches away from the other guys fist and you could finish a match with a leg drop of all things! but these days the matches are real, the moves are real, the blood is real, the injuries are real. i've seen footage of men breaking their necks, arms, legs, sustaining concussions, being hit with all manner of "weapons" and other objects, from the fairly standard trash can to VCR's and frying pans and even cream pies, although the latter obviously did little to injure the person. i've seen barb wire matches where the opponents have become attached to the wire, ripped their flesh and even wrapped themselves up in it to win. so the idea that the wrestling is fake is beyond me. however, the storylines and the pre-determined results and things like that do go a long way to making people thing it's fake and i'll agree there, but only there.
Song for Saturday:
choice of two for you this week...
violent pornography by system of a down - simple choice, it's a catchy song, admittedly it's not their best, but i like it. and it's been on in the car this week...
99 problems by jay-z (or by jay-z vs. linkin park) - essentially it's the same song, and i like both versions of it, and again the latter version has been in the car all week too...
anyway i should be getting on with work
laters peeps, enjoy the green day, the green beer and for those of you who partake just enjoy the green!!!

Irish Themed HNT
ok so i've still not fixed my camera :(
but seeing as Os asked for Irish themed HNT pics this week for St. Patrick's day, i give you this, titled pete, peter's and a random fat guy...
i'm the dark bit over the shoulder of said random fat guy with my arms in the air. there's a rule in ireland that you can't walk past a pub with your name on it without going in for a drink. so while in dublin for my 26th birthday we found peter's pub and obviously HAD to go in...thing is we stayed in and got even drunker than we already were...and that's saying something! this was taken at about 7 or 8, to be honest i was pretty blotto by then as we'd been drinking since before 11 that morning and i seem to remember eating a burger and we'd had 4 pints by then, that was about 12 ish...after that i couldn't tell you how much we had to drink...but it was a lot
and it was all good
and the irish are awesome people

SLACK!!!!
that's what i've been
slack in posting, especially as kate (in the sidebar) really showed me up last week by blogging everyday and some days more than once!!!
but i won a bottle of wine last night in the pub quiz
that was good, although i've not drank it yet
my shamen CD arrived yesterday morning, i got moaned at about buying it and not saving and i got moaned at for buying it and not having enough room for all my CD's...but it's worth it
been happily driving around with the new stereo in the car, loud tunes, varied selection...from kanye west, GLC, Pendulem right through to SOAD, Coal Chamber and Rammstein...proper tunes
but today i'm feeling really pissed off
might blog some more later, but for now i'm not going to
i want to go for a curry tonight...any takers, my shout maybe...
"tit's out tuesday" sounds like an interesting idea, i'd be more than happy to post a lovely pair here every week if you really want me too...so who wants to start it off then? who's going to send me a pic of their tit's first? lol i'm kidding btw!
and oh yeah...don't worry, i wasn't planning on running out and jumping into a whole new relationship yet, i need to give things some time and i really want to get away from here for a while and find myself again as it were...and no i'm not being rude :oP i want to enjoy being single for a while, although it feels like i've been single for about 6 weeks already...
i need a holiday...any suggestions?

confessions and a song for saturday
ok peeps, i've got a few confessions to make, nothing major, but i feel the need to get them off my chest...and i guess most of them ain't really confessions it's omre i need to get a few things off my chest
i've not been spending the time over the last few days reading everyones blogs and i know i've not been commenting as much as i usually do, i'm sorry and i plan to rectify that situation over the weekend with a hardcore session of reading and commenting
so that's the main confession
mini confessions
i hate my job that much that ive been looking for a new one
in company time
like i care
today i have taken the day off so i could have my stereo fitted into my car, along with some new kit, sub and amp, 6x9's and all that jazz
sounds sweet...cost me over £350 to have everything done though, i'm supposed to be saving
i have one quick comment to make to my new friend fukkit...i know i've not been very HN in the last few HNT's...you try asking your mates to take a pic of you HN...they'd look at me more than a bit oddly me thinks
however i promise to make up for it when i've fixed my camera by doing a FNT (f=full) at some point, just need to find someone to take the shot...i would ask for volunteers, but i'm not gonna!
me and my lady have called it a day officially now, i think it's been on the cards for a while, we've been seeing less and less of each other for the last few weeks now, so we had a big chat the other night and we actually caught up more after we split than anything else
so i'm back to being single
question is do i start looking for somoene or do i leave it and see what happens
bearing in mind most of my friends are male or are in the "been there, done that" catagory (i suppose i could buy them all a p-shirt now like mine so i could add "got the t-shirt") the women front is looking decidedly quiet, but i thikn that's probably a good thing, i don't want to rush into something just yet do i!
anyway i promise that i'm going to be a commenting DEMON tomorrow, and i'm also going to have a look at sorting some things out for the website as well over the weekend, i'll keep you posted :)
laters peeps

EDIT:
i realised after posting that i'd forgotten the song lol!!!
so this weekend i could be sentimental and pick goodbye my lover by james blunt or dry your eyes mate by the streets or something of that ilk, but i choose not to, i choose life, i choose goldie lookin' chain and your mothers got a penis i know that everyone outside of the UK probably hasn't heard of these guys or this song, but i urge you to find it and listen to it, download it, play it really loud, and laugh along with me...YOU KNOWS IT!!!!

instrumental HNT
ok so i look like i'm asleep
and i know that you shouldn't sit down while playing the big violin
but i wasn't asleep
and i had to sit down to reach everything because although the double bass is huge, it was too short for me to play standing up!!!
no it's not mine
no i can't play it
but who cares
(still trying to get my camera fixed, but being the lazy arse i am i've not actually done anything about it yet...this pic was taken by the spanish guy in the office with his phone)

pah!
so i forgot the song for saturday thing, i know it's my own creation and i know i should've done it, but i've been feeling a bit out of sorts of late
in the last week i've watched nearly 20 films
when i'm not at one work or the other i've been in my room most of the rest of the time watching dvd's or playing on the ps2
it's not that things are getting to me, i'm not letting them, but i've just not been in the mood to go out and see people or even stay in and see people
yesterday i think i spent a total of about 2 hours downstairs, most of the rest of the time i was in my room, and i spent a couple of hours on the internet bumming around and chatting to a few people
today it's been the same, i've been downstairs to eat and that's it
tonight i'm working in the pub though so i'm going to have to speak to people there, but i've got some paperwork type stuff to do while i'm there so i'm taking the laptop in with me to deal with it...yay great fun!
might take a couple of games in as well...just to pass the time, sunday's are usually dead for the first couple of hours anyway
dad's birthday party is shaping up to be a shambles, brother no. 2 on his side is refusing to come, brother no. 1 and sister also on that side don't get along, and i don't really like either of them, mum's said she's not going, no idea why, i don't really want to go either, but i can see myself being made to go... no idea why, i'm the odd one in the family anyway, the only child from this marriage, the only one without any kids, the only one under 30, the only one who went to uni, the only one who dropped out of uni, the only one who lives at home still...the list goes on, besides it's going to be held in the pub where i work, so if there is a family bust up (and i'm guessing there will be) that'll be fantastic, everyone i work with and all the locals and regulars that know me will see just what a stupid family i have...i can't wait!
i hope my plans work out though, things will be better if they do...

HNT - I was a dragon!!!
Something a little special this week for HNT.
a few weeks ago i went to a house warming party, where we went fire breathing, using chocolate powder of all things!!! but before you go and try it, it only works with spanish chocolate powder. well that's what our spanish host told us anyway.
needless to say it was good fun and we really enjoyed it.
KIDS DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!!!!
btw i've broken my camera so i'll be struggling with HNT for a little while :(
and my p-shirt (it's a pete collective t-shirt) arrived yesterday!! if you wanna know more about the pete collective check out the previous post
Take care though peeps

The Pete Collective - Give Pete A Chance
it would appear that pete is the new black!
i found this site a couple of weeks ago and it's weird what some people out there will do, but kinda cool at the same time. basically this guy was set a challenge to find 200 petes, but this seemed fairly pointless as there was no drive behind it! so after finding out about 345 maria's in spain had set a world record for the number of people with the same name in one place, pete (not me) decided that he could breakt that record. that is until dubai stepped up to the plate and had some 1500 muhammed's all meet up. so the challenge is for 2000 pete's, i've signed up because dammit this is the only way i'm going to break any records! that and i'm called pete!
anyway, have a look around the site, it's scary the effort this guy has gone to, i've even go so far as to order myself a p-shirt which will make it's way on to HNT as soon as i've got it!
it sounds kinda dave gorman, but who cares! (for those who don't know about dave gorman, his mate danny wallace set him a challenge to find 52 other dave gormans, he wrote a book about it, he had a show at the edinburgh fringe festival, i think he even made it onto tv about it, he convinced 3 people to change their names to dave gorman, including 2 women, he found daves in the US and in italy. anyway he found them all, and took danny wallace along for the ride. during all this time they never met another danny wallace! the book's very good though and i recommend it to anyone)
so
if you know a pete
you know where to send him
take care peeps and petes alike
