Lights, Camera, Action.


I may have been a little naughty when it came to my new year resolution to blog more. Sorry~ I'll try again. I think I need someone to constantly nag me to write this thing or I forget and I can have Will do it. He hates this thing. And as I type I keep getting distracted by cat videos. I am having a Sebby moment. I am usually more of a dog person myself but no one can say no to watching cute fluffy kittens doing cute fluffy things. ...I want a kitten now.

Well since my last little rant on here the weather has got a little better and I have learnt my lesson about wearing too much eye makeup to work. I'll just stick to my usual basics. I would list them but I've done that before. ...But any way, it has stopped raining, even if the wind is currently rattling the window pane behind me. It is a little frightening. I'll use it as an excuse to curl up on Will later.

Speaking of my darling Willy~ we had one of our rare trips to the cinema recently. Of course I was thrilled to go, it was a date after all, but Will always seems to be more interested in watching the movie than exploring my ideas about me, him, and what mischief we can get up to in the dark and in the back row of the theatre. He doesn't mind me pretending to stretch to wrap my arm around him though, even if it does get a bit uncomfortable due to his height.

The cinema always makes me a little nostalgic though. I love the new modern ones but I miss things that they have got rid of over the years. :

1) The name: I have been trying so hard not to write "pictures" instead of cinema throughout this entire blog.

2) Cartoons & The News: I miss seeing both in theatres. I know watching the news in the cinema sounds boring but we didn't have televisions then so it had to do. They really do need to start putting short cartoons before movies again.

I also remember when they used to list everyone who helped make the movie in the credits BEFORE the film rather than after. If any of you watch black and white films you will know what I mean. I don't miss the old credits I just find the difference astounding. ...And I think I should stop before I start talking about silent movies.

Red Panda of DEATH☆

This is going to be a bit of a rant about the weather. WHY IS IT SO HORRIBLE OUTSIDE!?!? Its wet and windy and horrible. It was so bad that when I told people in the office that I am going outside because I had a death to deal with they laughed and wished me "good luck". The last time I saw Ronald he was wearing so many layers I didn't recognise him. I haven't seen him since, I think he blew away! My hair is a fuzzy, windswept mess and the rain made my eye makeup run. I look like a runny panda. I guess it's my own fault for trying out a smokey eye look when the weather is so horrible but I thought my glasses would protect it. For once I am wanting to be a supervisor so I can sit in my comfy office all day and drink coffee. I don't want to go to work tomorrow. Will is going to have to pry me off the bed before I go anywhere. I'm going to stay inside, wrapped up in my new fluffy dressing gown and watch gory movies. I'm too beautiful to work under such conditions.

And since I'm whining...

My diet isn't going very well. I blame the weather. It made me bury my sorrows in a mug of hot chocolate and whipped cream. I'll try again tomorrow.

Well at least my nails held up in the horrible weather. I spent two hours last night working on them, much to Will's annoyance. I don't usually paint my nails black but I was in the mood for a change. I even painted little skulls and hearts on each finger. Will says I have too much free time on my hands, I guess I took that a little literally~.

New Year~


I may have got a little distracted by office Christmas and New Year parties, so when I felt like blogging I wasn't in much of a state to write anything that made sense. Champagne goes straight to my head~.

I love office parties. It is an excuse for me to get dolled up in my little Mrs Claus dress and torture my man with mistletoe, which usually works when Will has had one or two drinks. My man holds what little liquor he drinks very well but he just gets less shy about public affection, not that he has much of a choice because I will climb all over him any way, and I'm usually worse after a cocktail or three, but he can be more spontaneously passionate when tipsy. ...It's a good thing that walls cant talk, especially the ones in Will's office, my office, the library and several different storage cupboards.

And of course no party would be complete without our resident party animal taking his "party til you die" catchphrase literally and ending up passed out in some strange location. This year at Christmas party we found him the back of the general affairs office with a traffic cone stuck on his head, and on New Years Ronald ended up spending the night on me and Will's sofa. At least he was a bit well behaved on New Years.

Oh~! And I got lots of fabulous Christmas presents. Including a ring from Will. Don't get your hopes up, he doesn't want to marry me, the stoic idiot even wrote "I don't want to get married" on the lid of the ring box. He doesn't see the point of getting married when we live for centuries and we've already been together longer than every human marriage. As much as I want to be a bride I cant argue with a man who gives me ruby rings for Christmas. ...But I'll keep my ring finger bare just in case my man changes his mind.
I also got a box of makeup from Ronald, which I think his girlfriends in general affairs probably helped him pick out, and a few other little things from my other co-workers, including a new red dressing gown and a bottle of perfume that looks like a skull.

I think I over indulged a bit this Christmas and new year. There was just so much wonderful food and chocolate I couldn't help myself. But as always my new years resolution is to loose my holiday pounds, and possibly to blog more since I have been a little distracted lately. I'll probably just blog about how much I miss chocolate on my new diet.

So what is your new years resolution this year?
I do read all your comments by the way, they keep me entertained when I am pretending to do paperwork.
