things I learnt on my holiday
Aug. 21st, 2004 09:40 pm1. I spend more than the average amount of time in my pyjamas
2. My friends are apparently quite disturbed by me.
3. I find the thought of monkeys in ponchos so funny it gives me a headache. It is now my designated happy place.
4. I apparently turn very easily into a Packing and Leaving On Time Nazi (given enough Amarreto coffee beans and too little sleep.) I do apologise everyone.
5. It is possible to eat too much take-away food.
6. Not everyone enjoys Smallville as much as me.
7. Not everyone enjoys rock pools as much as me.
8. I should pay attention to strange grinding noises in my car *before* I travel 700 miles on holiday.
9. Welsh police are rude and insulting to cars.
10. Trying to have conversations about comics in front of non-comic people only leads to strange looks.
11. I know more about Aber weather phenomena than people who lived there for three years ("It'll stop soon")
12. I am easily pursuaded to like steam trains.
13. It is possible to watch too much gymnastics.
14. All beautiful men should be forced to wear dungarees and shovel coal.
15. My conversations need to be censored for appropriate content.
16. According to extensive research by
heatherbelles puddles are cold.
17.
indian_skimmer and I will watch Smallville until we cannot keep our eyes open any longer.
16. Fringedwellers would make the most ineffectual invasionary force. ("ooh those stairs are very steep", "hang on I need my coat", "don't look down", "I'll catch up, I need the toilet")
I had a fabulous time, and am not thinking about the fact my car had died.
