SNEAKY! BLOOMING TOMATOES!

and I mean that in both senses of the words. Seriously I have not watered them in over a week or maybe even two having pretty much put an end to the project. I go in today (a befuddled plan saw me filling the day with odd jobs) to the greenhouse and there are loads of them! little green ones, red ones and those in between. YAY! odd but yay. It didn't fail as much as I thought. 

but you know whats scary... weeks and weeks ago I cut away some of the dead bits. totally brown and sqwidgy vines and leaves if you could call them that. I dropped them onto the rose bed intending to bucket them in the big clean up. But today... I find the biggest best formed tomato sat there!!!!!

How very odd.

Anyway, I'm not actually at home writing this. I'm at a friends on  a very different from mine, PC. Also watching BigBang theory. The one where Penny gets addicted to an online game... explains so much :)

Score: 7/10 - good but original plans would possibly have been better

It is odd! Its like my brain has mutated or lost an ability! Did I ever write essays???

It is seriously wierd after 6 years going back to the class room. I didn't expect it but when I sat down to do the essay my brain said "No" it's like I forgot how to read non-fiction (it's not all fact). 

Then again I've not been doing much reading lately anyway. DARN! WHAT IS THAT!!!!!!

There's this odd noise like a pixie in the walls knocking to come in. it keeps moving, so as soon as it moves closer I'm out of here! 

Here's something to think about, ground rules. You have them in the class room, you have them at work. Where else?

Score: 7/10 though my mind is buzzing with new information I may not sleep

67 & 66: Wednesday and Thursday 26th and 27th October 2011

I HAVE HOMEWORK!!!!! :d and it feels good.  Just started my pttls course. Thats preparing to teach in the lifelong learning sector... over 16's. 

And my specialist subject is... first aid. Was tempted to do I.T. but there are enough techies out there and knowing something as simple as the recovery position or CPR (even just the compressions bit) can save lives.

I think tomorrow I'll set up a working area somewhere and get to work. Yes. I'll have my work in early. 

My apologies for missing yesterdays post got totally distracted by a good friend and Star Trek TNG :) then fell asleep on the sofa. Was watching rubbish about hoarders next thing I know it was halfway through wife swap.Trust me. Star Trek is better by far. 

OOH OOH also got a new project... 

Wednesday Score: 8.1

Thursday Score: 8

68: Tuesday 25th October 2011

So I am saddened to report another uneventful day. That is nothing unexpected or exciting happened. I didn't learn or teach anything. So to me its not the most valuable day on that score. However I did manage to have a great meeting with Chris my first officer about SBL stuff and resist the urge to buy magic cards.

Also had a relaxed morning of chores (exhausting but relaxing for the brain) and playing magic with Tom. Still can't get my photo's online but they're not going anywhere.

Which would be best for a fancy dress meal... pirate or borg?

Score: 7/10

69: Monday 24th October 2011

and what did I do off that list? Found a website for a buzzer game and made another 'ickle' hat... though missed the ears... saving that for the denim.

Unfortunately either my phone, cable or laptop are broken. I'll try rebooting....

Update: No that failed, and really spoilt my day. that and the fact that again I find myself doing nothing.

Score: 5/10.

I just have no idea how big a babies head is...

70: Sunday 23rd October 2011

30 days in and I've not done a lot have I? Well this really needs to change. I guess its because September and October are my busiest months but thats really not a good enough excuse.

Today was a little different. I saw Jurassic Park, one of my all time favourite movies on the big screen and if I'm honest the big screen really doesn't make a difference. Maybe it would on an IMAX or maybe I've seen it too much who knows. But I think I'm going to have to put away the DVD's for a while. The 'magic' really is lost when you know a movie too well. For now thats most of my collection including karate kid, mighty ducks, sister act, first contact amongst many others. 

Tomorrow is hospital again but I'm thinking when I come back into town I should head to the library and start work on one of the projects rattling around in my head. the last time I did this I ended up burning patterns into wooden medalians...

• tie die... something
• make a viking style but funky pattern skull cap for when I'm cooking etc
• baby hat with ears
• apron mod for a present I've in mind
• giant buzzer game :D might learn to weld 

Which do you reckon I should do?

Score 6/10: tooo darn standard! I may just watch some firefly for the rest of the night. Thats one thing I can't get bored of.

71: Saturday 22nd October 2011

Yawn! this is yesterdays post because by the time I got back it was already Sunday. 

 After a pretty standard day I went megazone which was annoying since I couldn't play. But then I was handed a camera and took to scaring people by appearing from the dark with the camera flash. I'm sure I ended up with an evil cackle. 

Other than that the last two days most awesome bit was two close friends showing up after a long time not seeing them. It was cool and they were two of my oldest friends.  

 Oh and amazingly I have finally finished sorting the magic cards.

Score 8/10: the good outweighed the bad easily
