The fireworks are starting here now. I enjoy Guy Fawkes night and I like fireworks, but I won't be sorry that soon there'll be no more of them for the local idiots to buy and set off at all hours of the night.
Poor Tex has been going frantic, he's hiding under the bed now, and we haven't even hit the big displays that will start soon. Can't help thinking it's a weird thing to celebrate, someone trying to blow up Parliament, but it gets us fireworks and bonfires so who am I to question the day? *g* That is if there's any bonfires, the council have been pulling down any that have been built in the area. Which I can't really fault them about, unsupervised fires are not a good thing.
Kayleigh was just here telling me she's been sacked from her job. I felt so gutted for her, she loved the job and enjoyed it. It was part of a training scheme and she only got £60 a week but she liked it. They said that she wasn't good enough which is rubbish. She's improved so much since she started, her confidence has shot up and her skills improve all the time. Just this morning she was thinking of moving out to share a flat with her friend. I know she's young, and will get another job eventually but she looked so sad.
She also made me cry when she was telling me how the bus she was on hit a dog. I'm such a sap, she was saying how it was running with a ball and it's ears were flapping in the wind. Then the bus hut it and it was screeching until it died. I hate stories like that *sniff*
Now I'm off to watch the fireworks, then watch pretty mutants. New Brennan! EEEEK!

-porn lines-
*dies laughing*
Oh, dear GOD, I love your LJ, Terri! I'm glad to have my own, but I swear I only wanted to sign up so I could participate in the delightful madness to be found here! (That was a huge compliment, coming from me, BTW *grin*)
Oh, and forgot to say in my email: You Go, Girl! Yay for you on getting it posted by Halloween, lol!!!
And what do you mean, your stories get bogged down with extraneous words? I've never thought so, and I proofread and edit, and hey-!- -you write awesome drabbles & stuff with minimums of words! I'm such a totally verbose rambling motormouth, I could _NEVER_ do that...

Date: 2003-11-06 08:22 am (UTC)If you think this is madness you should join in one of the threads in Castalie's LJ when they get going about our CH (common house) Castalie, Babycakes and I live there virtually together. We have huge tvs, comfy chairs, lots of good food, and there's always people wandering round to give a massage. There's a huge chest filled with sex toys and in the grounds are the muse barracks filled with all our muses. Lets think, Castalie has Domme!Jim muse Whiny!Danny muse etc. Babycakes has Sirus muse and I have various sdb/mutant/sentinel muses in there. They're all naked and we have cameras installed for when the inevitable happens. Also in the grounds is a cabin for when Castalie needs 'private' time with her girlfriend or Babycakes and I with our men. A *lot* of licking goes on in the CH. And now you probably think we're insane *g*
And what do you mean, your stories get bogged down with extraneous words?
I think they do, especially in longer stories. I'm getting better. My Sentinel beta is awesome at grammar etc and she's teaching me how to write cleanly. But I'm glad you like what I do :)

Date: 2003-11-06 08:06 am (UTC)Isn't he? mmmmmmm drooooooool. Now you've got me thinking about him in a porn movie. He was in The Chippendales Murders movie, dressed in a leather g-string. Oh man, I need a cold shower now!
*Eyes icon with lust. Licks it too*

Date: 2003-11-05 04:02 pm (UTC)We celebrate Halloween here too, just not to the extent that you do. Children go trick or treating, pumpkins carved etc, but it's not a huge deal really. Everyone that I know gives out stuff at Halloween, but it tends to be small amounts of money, not sweets.
Personally I celebrate both, as do most people, so I don't understand why he wouldn't want to join in. But no, it's not an English thing. He must just be anti social.
I'd love to take part in a Halloween that's a big event. It must be so cool to get dressed up and wander the streets getting free sweets. Though I may be too old to do that now *g*
