met a nice guy last night, i never seem to talk about blokes on here anymore probably cos this gets posted to facebook which is generally where all the guys id talk about are most of the time lol but yeh he seems nice i don't expect any thing from it but its all fun, mainly i wanted to mentionhim cos he has a name thats incredibly hard to spell Brychan bloody welshies lol and he mentioned he follows a norse like religion and hates christianity which gave me a chill of oh shit this guy is the welsh version of phoenix RUN!!! very amusing moment my face must have been a picture.

so anyway it was dans Anchorman birthday do yesterday started drinking at 1 stopped about 2am oh dear i vaguely remember everythin especially that i bought the boys a bloody case of carling for beer pong! insane i am i really really am! i have been very sneaky and am keeping my rent money until the loans come in on the 23rd of april, cos beky said i can pay her then and i have 10 quid to last me a month and a credit card, credit card is not good, especially since i jus had to fork out for 2 reading tickets lol. oh dear kate don't say anythin to mum! i probably will tell her at some point and she can yell and ill give her back half or somethin but im poor :( and this savesher giving me any other money!

entertainment

with the entertainment provided by my sister and sean i feel very reluctant to post in case i can't match them for humor! but hey i suppose i better have a go.

not much has been happening, we appear to have some kind of creature in our house that eats other peoples food, so far its had my new bottle of lemonade, a pack of Salami and most of a jar of peaunut butter. and since kelly has her own, beky hates it, and pip doesn't eat smooth peaunut butter i'm starting to think i might be sleep eating!

not much else has been going on, my funds have gone from bad to worse with the occurence of too many birthday and special events in march, im scared to look at my credit card bill lol and my account balance! i had one of those weekends where money jus seems to go even tho i tried not to let it stupid snap decisions like going into marks n sparks will be the end of me! time ot extend my overdraft i think!

ugh i hate being poor i'm not used to it! and i cant find any work so looks like im stuck, plus theres no way i'll ask my mum for any money cos shes poor as it is, i need a nice rich man to buy me drinks...but i live in wales and they're all five-foot tall and about the same wide, i miss my nice well muscled lean men! ah well.

the end...

shows over folks!

well not today it was over on saturday night....but since i've been holed up in bed with flu since havn't really had the clarity of mind to wirte a fascinating blog entry! and as this is a hopefully prolonged lucid moment, i had a couple of hours yesterday morning but they faded as the day advanced lol, thought i'd better do me a lil entry!

the show in glam was awesome :) especially since on thrudays Saz, Lucy Pol n Beky all came to see it :) they seemed to really enjoy it! the look on Sazzles face during the final scene was priceless! Pip, Costello (and heres the biggy) SEAN and Dan came on the friday, Costello was scared shitless by Montefeltros entrance (hahahaha its a woman in a CLOAK with her arm painted BLACK costello!) and i was incredibly flattered by Seans presence, especially since it was his first ever play, and eh only blacked out through some of it! LOVE IT! well hs n dans fav bits were the Lighting changes and they hastily headed for the pub after (im guessing the real favourite bits were when me n emma kept buying them drinks in appreciation of their effort) and then of course saturday night was the final night! got nicely tipsy on Cava on set, Prof Hand gave us a little sing-song there were thanks and group photos all round then we all went to the pub and got slaghtered! like really drunk at like 5 o'clock hence why i didnt realise until late on sunday that what i had was flu and hangover not just a hangover. not good dude.

so its goodbye to Lucretcia Borgia and hello to life! altho now the Handmaid's Tale starts in earnest with lots of "how to be a puppet" training from me and lots of moanin from my actors lol.

off home on friday for padge B'day, we're goin to the comedy club so shud be awesome despite lack of funds!
