Pillows and Shadows…

So blog readers, I’ve just ordered some incredible memory foam pillows. A bit random, I know, but last weekend when Chloe and I stayed at Amy’s apartment in Manchester, I had the best night’s sleep I’ve had in a long, long time. I woke up realising it was because my head and body literally felt [...]

Exciting Times

Things are looking up even more now this week. Not only do Chloe and I have plans Sunday with Sammy, Jess and Chris from the Cosplay get together (a decent bunch that champion Twilight and The Hunger Games, so as far as I’m concerned, great company), but my friend Amy – who just happens to [...]

Bank Holiday Fun

Usually on a Tuesday I’d be feeling particularly bleak about the fact there are still four more entire working days left until some much needed lie ins and chill out time. Today though, I’m feeling really upbeat. I’ve been so happy and pleasant on the phones that my line manager has been eying me suspiciously [...]

Cosplay Get Together

So this week I’ve decided to get in contact with some of the people invited to this Cosplay get together. I’ve settled on the fact that actually, it would be great to go. It’s a different sort of hobby that doesn’t lend itself to just anyone, so I really might meet some likeminded people. I’m [...]

Confused

Guess what? Date number two successfully happened! Finally – it has been weeks since Harry and I met and throughout the texting and phone calls, we’ve managed to complete an entire evening in each other’s company without alcohol or alcohol induced forgetfulness ruining it. That’s the good news. The bad news (I think), is that [...]

The D Word

I am going to be sick. I have a date. I haven’t had a date in – well, forever. I have a date – this Friday. An actual real life, genuine, meal and drinks date with a boy. God help me. Please don’t think I’m overreacting. I know this type of thing is relatively commonplace [...]

A Tidy Little Win

My quiet weekend has prompted me to spend quite a lot of time getting into my favourite online games. I love being with my parents over the holidays, don’t get me wrong. There’s no feeling like being in your safest, most settled place, with familiar home comforts all around you. There’s just only so much [...]

A Quiet Bank Holiday…

Well, I can safely say I’m feeling a whole lot better today. That really was a hangover and a half. As I said, I am now beginning to feel human again. Which can only mean one thing, right? To go out again at the weekend drinking of course…Not! No, no and no. It’s Easter weekend [...]

Digital Disaster

I can honestly say that as of now – Tuesday morning – I still feel hungover. Saturday night was a mess. A good mess, but a mess all the same. So much for flaunting my super networking skills and trying to infiltrate the Manchester digital media scene with an air of decorum, class and unrivalled [...]

Hungry For The Weekend Games

There’s good news and there’s bad news. I like ending on a high note so I’ll start with the bad: I have spent the majority of this week’s rare, beautiful British weather indoors and ill, and by the time I’m due to go out this weekend, it’ll be long gone (the weather, not the illness [...]
