yep, that's where I am - as I type in fact. Don't stalk me tho, anyone.

I would stalk you but I'm probably too drunk to drive. Last time i was there Kendra was with me... scary.

Perhaps you could stalk me on a later, more sober occasion. I'm here a lot and I'm fairly distinctive.

Okay. The patrons stare oddly at me quite often as it is, what with the hair and tatts and piercings, so it wouldn't seem that unusual.

Yeah, I'm not a Lowry fan either. Sometimes we have other exhibitions which are quite good, but I don't really know much of anything about art. I can speak for our theatre programme, which isn't all that great at the moment either. Darren Day sings The Music of Manilow, anyone?

I'm sobering up now but even drunk I wouldn't buy that. I would like to go to the theatre more often but no one i know would be interested.

Well, if you ever want to come and watch anything here let me know, I can often get freebies. As long as it's not Viva La Diva, the musical extravaganza starring Katherine Jenkins and Darcy Bussell, which has sold out three nights at £55 a ticket.

thought it might be ;)

I'm going to watch a play tonite called Food, altho a colleague saw it and described it as "extremely mediocre", I don't feel like I see enough stuff so I thought I should give it a go.

it does sound crap to be honest. but then my idea of entertainment is gambling with myself on rain drops on my window.

Yeah, I don't have high expectations. It's only a hour and a bit out of my life tho, and the only other thing I would be doing is lying on my sofa watching Lost repeats with my housemate whilst stuffing ice cream into my gob.

My housemate and I have been watching Lost back from the beginning over the past couple weeks. We are uber-geeks. Strangely, I've managed to bring the conversation back around to it. I don't know how i keep doing that...

All you'd have to do to avoid a stalker from here is where a silly mask, they'll not twig it.

Was in Manchester for a great part of yesterday as my partner's stepdad died yesterday morning. Got back at about 10ish just in time to catch JLC hosting 'Bring Back Dallas' on E4 and laughed my socks off at his endeavours. It was a good end to a bit of a poo day.

Just...neither good nor awful. Didn't really inspire any strong emotion of any sort, it was just 'meh'.

Kinda reminds me of part of a Jerry Seinfeld stand-up routine about soaps and how they never end: "If I wanted a long boring story with no point to it, I have my life."
