I love the feeling of squirming into a cold bed. There's nothing more satisfying after a hard day.

I just like to use my electric blanket to warm my bed up before I get in. My mum always used to try and scare me into thinking I'd catch fire if I slept with it on.

What is this strange blanket you speak of?

It's the special ability of Andu-hime's pikachu.

Looks like I'll prolly be involved in research involving synthesizing new compounds. Eeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Not exactly what I had in mind, but, long term, it will be relevant to my interests in neurochemistry/neuropharmacology.

How do you not know what an electric blanket is?

Mines one that goes under the sheets. I've had one since I was a small child.

I have a cold. At least, I'm pretty sure it's a cold and not the flu. I feel bad but not completely debilitated, and no vomiting, etc. I'm going from hot to cold, from feverish to normal temperature. It's making me nuts. I'm freezing so I put on a sweatshirt & sweatpants, then an hour later, I'm sweating bullets, so strip back down to shorts & T shirt. An hour later, I'm freezing again.

The good thing is we've got a liberal policy at work regarding sick days, so taking the last 2 days off from work wasn't a problem. In fact, my boss encouraged me to stay home so I didn't spread my cold around to other people. I'm usually pretty good at avoiding colds / flus, but my roommate was sick this week before me, so I pretty much had no chance to dodge this one, even after I made death threats at him for coughing all over the house.

I have a small pile of stuff on my bed that still needs sorting. I just cannot be bothered with it. Lol.

Lift bed. Push stuff under. Drop the bed back down.

kurandoinu · « **Reply #22028 on:** January 21, 2011, 09:10:21 PM »

Under the bed is already full! <_<

Its okay, its all useful stuff. Like toothpaste. I'll sort it out in a minute as I wanna go watch a film anyway. Tired after my excessive running round. Gotta wipe my iphone and send it off in the post tomorrow... fun.

Manjus · « **Reply #22029 on:** January 21, 2011, 09:22:06 PM »

What's the film? Anything good?

kurandoinu · « **Reply #22030 on:** January 21, 2011, 09:23:32 PM »

Gonna watch the Inception blu ray. I'm pretty tired though so I doubt I'll watch it all.

Night!

Manjus · « **Reply #22031 on:** January 21, 2011, 09:30:13 PM »

That film was better the second time round for sure. Blu-ray will be pretty cool.
If you watch it have fun, if you sleep... Have fun?

Just opened a pack of some cookies I bought in a discount.... and THEY ARE AWESOME.
Delicious Chocolate Chip Cookies !

Manjus · « **Reply #22033 on:** January 21, 2011, 10:02:34 PM »

Cheap and awesome? How can you lose.

JoonasTo · « **Reply #22034 on:** January 21, 2011, 10:09:07 PM »

Finished Gunslinger Girl.
I liked. It was good. Contrary to what I had heard the storytelling wasn't bad at all. It was quite well suited to my tastes.
A little too predictable perhaps but the style it was made and told kept me well hooked till the end. Recommended to every romantic here.

And in how many 13 episode series do you know the opening by heart so you could sing it out loud withouot lyrics by the time your in the last episode? Not many. They really got a good one there. Also liked the ending.
Oh yeah, Mozart's ninth ftw. I just had to sing along when Triele started.

Too bad I realised only in the 10th episode that there was a english dub available too. Anyone know if it would have been worth listening? Might have to rewatch this sometime with it.

Now I'm on to listening to some Ikkitousen openings and going to bed soon after.
Good Night All!

Ps. I meant the romantic in the real sense not the lovey dovey though I think that works too. Especially if you happen to be a lolicon/pedo.

Please define "the real sense." I'm thoroughly interested.

I'm looking for some new earbuds, my Apple ones broke.
Anyone know of earbuds $10 or under that are as good in quality as Apple ones?

tomoya-kun · « **Reply #22037 on:** January 22, 2011, 01:04:57 AM »

Try to find some in the discount bucked, the really cheap sony ones are not bad.

The electronics are ridiculously overpriced there.
