Where's my cabana boy? I need someone to feed me truffles. And I want a drink.

*Blinks, looks around*...dammit.

Hey you lot, just swung by to see what's up & it seems all is not well on ilx & I have only looked at this thread so far! *sigh* Anyways I hope you are all well & have happy holidays.xxxx
(p.s. Nick - i didn't get an email from you! :-( )

I'm in a bad mood because British Telecom have yet again changed my account without telling me, and without any explanation when I called them, so my normal internet connection is unavailable, and I'm on a pay-per-minute deal. I can't get at or send my email, nor get into AIM. So I just dropped in to mention it in the event that anyone might be missing me (you never know!). I'm being given a month of all-day free connection as compensation, which I'll enjoy over Xmas, but I'm pissed off today.

I'm also feeling ill - a nasty cough, a sore throat and I'm shivery. I don't suppose this is entirely BT's fault.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 20 December 2003 18:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Bloody hell, it's still only partly sorted - I believe I'm connecting without paying per minute, and I have downloaded my email successfully, but I still can't get on to AIM, and there was someone I really wanted to talk to too, if they happened to be around.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Sunday, 21 December 2003 00:51 (twenty-two years ago)

How annoying, Martin! Hopefully it'll all be fixed soon.

As for me - I've finished most of my Christmas shopping this afternoon, going to the office party tonight, and if I could get rid of this headache, I'd feel a lot better. Meanwhile, I sold my car this morning (*crying*) and am looking for a newer one to buy, but rented one today because the one I've been driving is in the shop. It's a good little car (the rental) but is the most awful color of sage green - who would BUY that? Ick.

Renters can't be choosers, however.

Hope you're all doing well, and an extra cockpunch to British Telecom.

Good morning, TITTytWISers.

My boss called in this morning and said he didn't really see any need for me to come in tomorrow! So, at around 11 we're going to an early lunch and then I never have to come back to this office again.

YAY!

We (ie: NA & I) saw LOTR yesterday and that movie was intense. I guess it was especially intense because we were both still a bit hungover from the party Saturday night.

It was a great time. A bunch of people wrote on our boxes, so now we can find our Weed, Life Size Dildo Doll, and the Cats, among other things.

(and I obviously meant TITtyTWISters)

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Monday, 22 December 2003 14:35 (twenty-two years ago)

hello my lovely! How was the party? Rocking I hope!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 22 December 2003 15:11 (twenty-two years ago)

I hate it when I have to sign birthday cards for people in the office who HAVE NEVER signed a card for me. I've never received a card in the 30 months I've worked here. BOOO on other people being more liked than me!

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Monday, 22 December 2003 15:14 (twenty-two years ago)

If I don't like someone & they have never bothered to speak to me at work, then I don't bother signing their name (in leaving cards).

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 22 December 2003 15:16 (twenty-two years ago)

The party was GREAT, pink. Lots of loud music and drink and good friends.

It is going to be ok, Huck. Who cares? Nobody got me anything for my birthday at work, not even a card. There always has to be that one person who initiates it - goes out, gets a card, forces everyone at gunpoint to sign it. And then, as you might have read here, I basically forced my boss to get me something like a week after my birthday.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Monday, 22 December 2003 15:25 (twenty-two years ago)

I know, I just wanted to gripe about it before I shrugged it off. I'm very small and petty like that.

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Monday, 22 December 2003 15:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Well that's good to hear sarah!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 22 December 2003 15:29 (twenty-two years ago)

Today is my last day.

Oh yeah, I think I forgot to tell you guys... There's this one lady who interviewed who went on and on about how her current boss is mean to her and makes her cry. That's why she was looking for a new job. Then she asked me, "Ok, honestly, what is it like working for him? I don't want to jump from the frying pan into the fire, you know." I told her like it is. Then my boss was going to offer her the job, but she backed out. Good for her. The one he ended up hiring is a real tough cookie. She'll set him straight.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Monday, 22 December 2003 15:30 (twenty-two years ago)

By what you have said in the past, i think a 'tough cookie' is what is needed!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 22 December 2003 15:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Heh heh. Rah for Sarah!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 22 December 2003 15:32 (twenty-two years ago)

i spent *all day* doing this:

http://homepage.mac.com/radio_free_albemuth/PhotoAlbum21.html

unpacking boxes, making a huge mess in order to put things in some kind of order; now i have a temporarily set-up room in the new place. the only cheerful thing about it are my Powerpuffs, which nestled nicely on the built-in shelf.

i haven't painted the walls yet, tomorrow is Xmas eve and i have to go to the hardware store, grocery shopping, wrap more presents, all before 1pm. Arrgghh why am i still awake??!!!

― Orbit (Orbit), Tuesday, 23 December 2003 09:54 (twenty-two years ago)

I wondered what happened to this thread? In it's temporary absence I was forced to update my blog.

Sarah congrats on everything wrapping well for you guys.

― Viva La Sam (thatgirl), Tuesday, 23 December 2003 09:57 (twenty-two years ago)

i get out of work 2 hours early! gee thanks!

― El Santo Claus (Kingfish), Wednesday, 24 December 2003 19:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Yo Tep, where you at?
Holla back.

― oops (Oops), Wednesday, 24 December 2003 19:17 (twenty-two years ago)

For some reason, not that many people seem to be online at 9:00 PM on xmas eve. Hmmm. My family is watching some stupid romantic comedy, so I'm holed up in the freezing cold basement playing on the computer. Maybe I should look for a job. Hmmm.

― NA (Nick A.), Thursday, 25 December 2003 02:05 (twenty-two years ago)

(oops, Tep is apparently done with ILX)

― NA (Nick A.), Friday, 26 December 2003 02:53 (twenty-two years ago)

i'm forced to be on my desktop due to having left my laptop cord at school. Haven't used this machine in ages. Proof: Opened Photoshop and in the recent documents list was this old-ass photo of Tom that he had me resize once:

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-11/510914/tom.gif

he looks like a skater!

― Viva La Sam (thatgirl), Friday, 26 December 2003 03:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey kiddos! Hope all my fave ilxors are doing ok. Hope yuo all had a good Christmas. We found out 2 days before Christmas that someone has pulled out of our housing chain, so now I am not sure what will happen with the house. If it all falls through that is pretty much our chance of becoming houseowners gone.

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 29 December 2003 10:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey chaps,

Pinky, that's terrible - hope it doesn't prove to be the case.

I'm back in work today, which is okay I guess, though I'd rather be at home snuggling with muh honey. Especially as it is the most UGLY day outside - heavy rain and a biting cold wind. Welcome to 2004 (almost).

As ever, I'm away from the internet most of the day, so emails to mark at casar0tt0 dot uk dot com (replace 0s with os) very very very welcome, especially as I forgot to bring in any CDS :(

― Markelby (Mark C), Monday, 29 December 2003 10:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Dude, it sucks being back at work doesn't it?! My hotmail seems to be playing up today, boo!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 29 December 2003 10:26 (twenty-two years ago)

haven't been around much lately, my wifes grandfather did die and its been a rough christmas. but a good one in some ways.

― Chris 'Knuckle Deep' V. (Chris V), Monday, 29 December 2003 15:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Awww Chris. *hugs*

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 29 December 2003 15:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey Poops. I'm waiting for a grandmother to die at the moment (worst case scenario = 2 grandmothers on the way out) and it's not fun. My dad was very subdued all Christmas - all he can do is wait for the inevitable phone call. She's in Italy so he can't even be by her bedside. Anyway, sympathy and manly hugs from me too.

― Markelby (Mark C), Monday, 29 December 2003 16:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Love & hugs to all of you - Chris, I'm sorry about your wife's granddad, and Pinky, I'm keeping my fingers crossed about the house. Me, I had a rough weekend, but onward and upward, right?

― luna (luna.c), Monday, 29 December 2003 16:50 (twenty-two years ago)

Luna - bigs hugs for you pretty lady. xxx

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 29 December 2003 16:52 (twenty-two years ago)

It is my intention to do as little real work as possible today, to punish my bosses for making us work this week.

Go.

― luna (luna.c), Monday, 29 December 2003 18:16 (twenty-two years ago)

That was my plan, but i have loads to do. :-(

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 12:42 (twenty-two years ago)

I have followed that plan to the letter! Last piece of work done - sorting out script binders and paperclips from the big mixed-up pile created by the end of year script recycling.

Luna, hugs and thanks for looking after my better half :)

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 12:53 (twenty-two years ago)

my nose hurts
and i keep coughing despite antibiotics and cough syrup.
this is awful.. :-(
*a-choo!*

― Orbit (Orbit), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 06:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Bless you. I'm sorry - I'm sick, too - hope it gets better soooooooooon... xx

― luna (luna.c), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 06:48 (twenty-two years ago)

thx for the thots--
and here, have a tissue... :-)

i hope you are better soon also.

this is a big bucket o' no-fun, and it makes me not sleep, which is bad.

this is the thread where i banish all sickness!

― Orbit (Orbit), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 06:52 (twenty-two years ago)

I'd like to say that I'd like to post on ILE again, even though I know there are at least a couple of people here who would punch me square in the face if they ever met me.

― Kenan Hebert (kenan), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 06:52 (twenty-two years ago)

No they wouldn't.

― Bryan (Bryan), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 06:53 (twenty-two years ago)

haha I guess no more than I would actually punch the people I hate on ILX.

― Kenan Hebert (kenan), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 07:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Keeeeeenan!

(that's Hello in fever-speak)

plz no punching.

however plz remove sinuses, expertly.

― Orbit (Orbit), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 07:06 (twenty-two years ago)

plz no punching.

Oh, yes, punching. You don't think Millar would love to see blood running into my mouth?

― Kenan Hebert (kenan), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 07:25 (twenty-two years ago)

nah.

― Orbit (Orbit), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 07:26 (twenty-two years ago)

i would pay to see the two of you go at it.

BRING IT ON

;)

― Viva La Sam (thatgirl), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 07:26 (twenty-two years ago)

i went to bed TWICE already and i still can't sleep.

― Orbit (Orbit), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 08:06 (twenty-two years ago)

you go girl.

― Viva La Sam (thatgirl), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 08:07 (twenty-two years ago)

i will take pics of my kitchen,
digital at midnight;
fresh paint growing green
over walls of plaster.

rum swirls in the glass,
spiced and warm;
photographer's companion.

― Orbit (Orbit), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 08:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Orbit, I really love the way you put words together.

― luna (luna.c), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 08:38 (twenty-two years ago)

*blursh*
