Today I ordered some new plugs from RICAYP on Etsy. They're really nice illustrations so can't wait to get them and try them on! Thinking of wearing them as mis-matched pairs so that I can have the best of both. I love old Alice In Wonderland illustrations, I have a couple of books with the best drawings in them. I wish I had the natural ability to draw, but sadly I can only draw stick people and trees in winter.

Illustrations:


Song Of The Day: Taylor Swift - We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together
Reason: Love this song, super catchy

Highlight Of The Day: New plugs which I haven't had in about a year!

Today was supposed to be my last day in work for two weeks, but I took some overtime, so tomorrow will be the last day instead! Aah can't wait for that first lie in. Good stuff. We have set up our new tv and I finally got to sit down and have a proper watch of it. It looks nice and gives the room a bit more of a modern feel. Although I still fail to understand why people would want to spend a bomb on a super massive, all singing, all dancing tv. There are better things to do than sit on your butt watching tv programmes all day.

New TV:


Song Of The Day: Destiny's Child - Jumpin' Jumpin'
Reason: One of my favourite songs that reminds me of being a teen!

Highlight Of The Day: Fajitas for tea.

Today was my second to last day before my two weeks off! I went to Weatherspoons after work with two of the girls from work so we could have our pay day burgers! We're hoping to make it a regular pay day event as it's nice to be social outside of work. I also bought a new top which I wore tonight. £12 from the Izabel range stocked by Fuse in our store. It's nice and comfy and will go with a lot of my stuf. I also managed to convince the boy that we should go to the Horse Of The Year Show next Thursday! So I'm super excited and trying to decide what cameras and films to take!

Song Of The Day: Beyonce - Countdown
Reason: Love this song, love the chorus!

Highlight Of The Day: Booking HOYS tickets!

Today I have been wearing my Jasper Conran shirt that I've had for ages. It reminds me of the 80s as it has huge loose sleeves. It hangs quite nicely, but it is a little long in the body as I'm all legs and no torso! I wore it with a simple Zara black vest top and a Zara skirt. I would have worn my creepers with it but I couldn't find them so settled for my usual (muddy) boots. I love wearing blouses and shirts as I love the smart, preppy look. I also wore my hair out in a bun today. I've been having a bit of a play about with hair styles recently as I'm so bored of having super long hair and not making the most of it. I think it looked ok, but I'm still getting used to how I look with my hair up.

Jasper:


Song Of The Day: Azealia Banks - Liquorice
Reason: She has the most beautiful hair in this video!

Highlight Of The Day: A nice hot chocolate with a friend.

Today was the day before my day off tomorrow. Surprisingly it went quite fast and I cannot wait for a lie in! Plus it means only 2 more shifts before 2 weeks off! Yay! I'm definately in need of a break so it will be nice to be able to properly relax. I'll also be getting stuck into the box set a friend got me for my birthday. Several documentaries on some of the most infamous serial killers. My personal favourite is Ed Gein. He was the inspiration for the Hitchcock film 'Psycho', also one of my favourites. He suffered mental issues which were exacerbated by the death of his beloved mother, Although he only killed two people, he is most infamous for exhuming corpses, many shortly after burial, and turning them into household decorative items. I feel that if I were to be a serial killer, I'd defiantely want to go all out and be seen as a freak as well. I do feel a little sorry for Gein, as he clearly a very simple minded man who led an isolated, sad life and unfortunatley turned to activities which are not socially acceptable to the average sane person. Maybe if he'd have been born much later today's medical and mental health services would have been able to help him before his life took a turn for the worse. I definately don't see Ed Gein as a psychotic, self obsessed narcisist as many killers appear to be, or at the very least are portrayed that way by the media which is most likely the reason I pity him. I think he was just a simple, mentally ill man who unfortunately fell too deep into his own fantasy world which devastatingly ended with the deaths of two innocent women.

Killers:


Song Of The Day: Katy Perry - Hot & Cold
Reason: One of my fave Katy songs, really want to get her Sims 3 add on pack!

Highlight Of The Day: Getting my kitchen nice and clean. Bathroom tomorrow!

Today has been one of those days when I have been well and truely fed up. I'm guessing that yet another terrible night's sleep is mostly to blame. I can't remember the last time I work up feeling refreshed or didn't wake up several times during the night. I've been trying to eat more fruit and veg to give me more energy but even that doesn't seem to be helping. Ah well, buying the shoes I've wanted for ages from work yesterday is helping! I also read a really interesting article about living with a junkie, so thought I'd share! Happy reading!

I Put My New Shoes On:


Song Of The Day: Alexisonfire - Rough Hands
Reason: One of my favourite songs by them, went to see them years ago in Leeds and they were so good!

Highlight Of The Day: Getting an early(ish) night.

Today we had friends over, it was nice to just be hanging round the flat doing nothing in particular. I also got Rollercoaster Tycoon 3! It's awesome, I forgot how much I used to love it. Sadly, I didn't save my game and my computer crashed. Boo!

Klaus-y Mousey:


Song Of The Day: Maroon 5 - Payphone
Reason: I have this stuck in my head for some reason. So. Very. Annoying....

Highlight Of The Day:  Buying Rollercoaster Tycoon 3!

Today we took my friend from work and her little daughter to the Walled Garden, along with the boy's sister and her boyfriend.  It was a really nice day, firstly having a cake and coffee then walking round taking photos. After we'd finished my friend's little girl came to our house with us to visit the rats and the geckos. She loved all of them, but in particular 'Caramel' the gecko. I thought I'd say her name was Caramel rather than Carcass as I didn't fancy explaining to a child what a carcass actually was! Afer she'd gone home, I helped the boy's sister and her boyfriend to do their CVs and we had KFC for tea! Overall it was a really nice day but very tiring!

Invasion Of The Ducks:
 


Song Of The Day: No Doubt - Sunday Morning
Reason: It's Sunday and this is a Sunday song!
