Mundane monday!

It's 8:15 am and for the past 15 minutes i've been glancing at the time on my computer. Each glance but a minute or two apart yet feeling like at least 20 minutes a time. I am bored beyond belief. I am not sure whether my compulsion to watch the time is frustrating or somewhat entertaining in such a state of boredom, either way even whilst writing this my eyes continue to be drawn to the little numbers which never seem to change in the right hand corner of my screen.

I went to bed early last night and woke up at around 3:30am since that time i've exhausted most means of entertainment. I've read some bleach, which i'm really starting to get into, though i'm only able to really read so much in one sitting, after a while the almost unpronouncable japanese names become blurred, along with the somewhat similar looking charecters i find myself losing concentration and being unable to distinguish a few of them. I have played some battle forge, done a few pvp maps, which for all of you none-nerds means player vs player. Won most of these battles, when will people learn tower rushes vs my deck is not a good idea? When will people learn that trying to rush my second orb, whilst the only way of winning vs me is not going to work if you're spawning troops whilst in fight at half health? I played a pve map (Player vs enviroment) on advanced, it was fairly easy. I've watched some tv; CSI - Criminal intent and South Park. Y'know, i still love south park but i yearn for the day to return where it has me laughing out loud as it did in the past, perhaps my age is stopping me from finding some of the jokes quite so funny, saying that, the 'gay fish' joke episode was perhaps the best episode of south park i've seen in a long long time.

Infact, TV is lacking at the moment... Most good series are on a break or between seasons. Heroes has just finished, CSI miami and the original are both coming toward the end of their respective series, 24 has a few weeks left and kings has took a break until june. Weeds isn't again until around june time and i've no idea when dexter and burn notice are back, there's probably a few months until both of those.

There is nobody on MSN at the moment, even simmons (who woke up around the same time i did) has desserted me to go back to sleep. Facebook as boring and pointless as ever... no all that's left is me, my keyboard and Nightwish which i'm currently listening to.

The plan for today is simple: Listen to music a little longer, type some more rambling boring content for this blog that nobody will ever read then later go shopping with the aim of spending as little as possible on food for the next week, saving as much as possible for the 10 days i'm spending in scotland next week.

This weekend was fairly... entertaining though i guess. Friday was the BHW show, which for the first time in around 2 years i teamed up with gang* to face john bull and scott grimm. There were no tables, ladders or chairs like in our last encounter and this time me and gang* were playing face, which does not come natural to me at all and i expect it doesn't to him either. It's weird, being a heel i sometimes find myself cheered, as most heels do from time to time, there's always that 'bunch' of usually teenage guys who find the heels to be the most entertaining, being a face however, i find it hard to get past a feeling of indifference from the crowd. I don't feel comfortable being in the face role, especially in front of 'smaller' crowds. If you don't get a reaction to the usual face stuff (clapping, stamping, cheering your tag partner on etc) it's hard to really get into the match, as a heel, if you don't get a reaction for something, you punch your opponent in the face, hit something which looks nasty or cheat and you get the heat no problem. It's something i need to work on. The only time i really did well at being a face was at a charity show a couple of years back, 500ish people all pretty hot for the show and that was really easy to work, other than that, it's very difficult for me, since i not only enjoy to being the heel and working in the wrestling style of a heel but i also find it much easier to connect with my heel charecter, it comes to me naturally most of the time, i guess it's who i might be, if there were no concequences in the world and so it's easy to tap into.

Saturday was fairly fun, i went up town to do the shopping i am now going to do today, i met my dad up there randomly and he invited me for a quick drink at one of the pubs in the town centre. I went in had a drink, had another, his partner came in, we had a few more, got an indian take away i ate it at his then came home... shopping failed completely! It was a good afternoon / evening though, usually i only spend good lengths of time with my dad when he has my little brother for the day or evening and go around for dinner, it's rare i spend time with him alone and in light of things he now knows about me, it was a good oppertunity to see that nothing in our relationship had changed. Plus, celebrating with him on his new job (after having just been made redundant after 26 years of work for the same employer) seemed like as good an excuse as any.

But today... today will be boring, i'm thinking about going to eat another 'crunchie blast' ice-cream, these things are fantastic, like a magnum but with toffee like icecream in the middle and the exploding candy stuff you would once find in a 'wonka bar'. How has this ice-cream eluded me all of my life?

Ah, i forgot to keep checking the time during writing this and listening to music and 45 minutes has managed to pass... perhaps this day wont drag as much as i thought.

This week is going to be slow as hell though, regardless of what i fill my time doing, roll on next monday, i can't wait to take my flight to scotland! The complimenty vodka and coke on the plane is fantastic and after that i get to be greeted by simmons. Meeting his mother for the first time whilst up there... that's sure to be fun, lets hope the obvious awkwardness of the situation doesn't force me into 'Chris Stone' mode, or have me make some kind of inappropriate joke which she is bound to find insulting... I can only imagine how pissed simmons will be if i manage to make his mother hate me the first time i meet her... i'll have some serious apologies to make if that happens through any real fault of my own.

Anyway bored of rambling now...
