Watch watch watch watch watch watch!

Not the verb, the noun. I am now in such a fantastically good mood cause I have found my watch after three days solid of searching. I hate looking for things, cause I'm generally no good at it and it takes me bloody ages and I could be doing so many more fun things with my time. This watch was a 21st birthday present from my parents as well, which means that I had to find it tonight. Not just cause I like it a lot a lot, but because I'd face awkward questions if I pitched up at home tomorrow wearing my cheap backup watch.

I was just getting ready to physically remove every piece of furniture and crap from my room and I found it. And what's more, I had a good idea that found it. It was in the rubbish bag that I'd filled when cleaning my room; must've fallen in at some point.

This means that not only do I have my watch back and not only did I get it back through a genius good idea, I got it back just in the nick from being thrown away. Which is kinda like an extra special kind of rescue - a James Bond style rescue, where the watch is saved with 007 seconds left on the bomb clock. Plus this means I don't have to empty my room, which will result in needing to do a slightly less effusive tidy. Plus there was also a point to me going through a rubbish bag one item at a time. I'd've been pissed if that'd've been pointless.

Sorry for the incoherence (I don't even have the excuse of being drubnk), but I'm in a fucking good mood now and my wanker housemates have buggered off, so I've got the place to myself. Loud music and weird dancing all round! Huzzah!

What's giving you a happy today?

By an eerie coincidence, I too found my watch today after being unable to find it for the last two days...


(notice, by the way, that you don't see me jumping for joy and behaving like a drunken pleb)

I just put my watch on after at least two weeks of not wearing it at all. It's not making me happy, though. Means I'm going to the airport later.

Yeah, but that's cause you're old.

I am not a storm shelter. Besides, if he *is* old, he won't be able to hurt you.

Well, not much.

Ah yes, the privacy of Internet meets.
 
Watches and watches...

Who's watching the watches when they aren't being watched...I always know where my watch is...it's in the drawer with the rest of the watches. I have independent watches, they all have different times...they refuse to follow the crowd.

I will never lose my watch...I never wear a watch...I am never late...I am never on time...I never know what time it is...

What does it matter if it is a quarter to, or a quarter past...the day will start and the day will end...no matter what time it is.
 
I got a Sponge Bob Sqarepants watch as a prize from Burger King; the $1.99 pricetag couldn't be beat. I couldn't figure out how to set it and eventually had to get my 10 year old nephew to show me how to use it. The I tried to trade it off to OhMissScarlett's son for a SpongeBob stocking hat, but he was on to my grift and didn't go for it. I still have it, but the battery ran down.

If only you liked girls and I liked boys, we could be so happy together... :heart:
 
Attack of a singing lurker

Imagine me and you, I do
I think about you day and night
It's only right
To think about the one you love,
And hold you tight
So happy together


Aforementioned lurker packs up his banjo and kazoo and makes a hasty exit....

There are times when the bizarre in this place, overwhelms even me.

Think I'll go eat muffins and watch tv until the sun is properly up, and the air has warmed enough to go out.

He dropped his plectrum.... I shall seek throughout the land for the lurker whose hand fits this plectrum, and ask for his hand in marriage...

For starters, you, hunnybuns. I am still surprized at the delight you can exude (save some for Jan. 3 ;) ), not to mention put into words.

More personally, last week I knit a pair of socks and today I finished knitting a glove (mate to follow). I took a class for the socks and used instructions for the glove. My feet and hands are so happy.

Pear :heart: :kiss: :heart:

Please keep your muttonings sotto voce.
You two buggerlugs just took all my delight and buried it like a dead goldfish in a toilet bowl full of myrrh and lumpy latkes and now I'm so depressed at the abuse of our common language I'm going to go and masturbate and have a fag and pretend I live in Earl's flat and never heard of authors and puns and sheep dropping humor.
