i just received the most bizarre message from sophie:
"I am sitting at my desk with my bra on my head, making doggie sounds. It is very comfortable."

I was sitting at my desk at the time, trying to do a sudoko -- funny, these 'intellectual' trends, no? what happened to the good ol' days of crosswords? i did a very fun crossword in an entertainment magazine called Life & Style yesterday, and i got almost all of it by myself because it was all like Designer from Indiana, and Legally Blonde star ____ Witherspoon and stuff like that. anyway i was sitting at my desk and almost fell off it at the thought of soph with a bra wrapped around her head and... making doggie sounds. growling, or barking, i imagine. scary. oh apparently the bra helped release tension and made her head feel cooler because it was straight from the washer and therefore a little bit damp. ^_^

another unproductive weekend! my yesterday, as i told bernie, went something like this:
i woke up around 11something, noon-ish, i showered and had lunch, read about 2 pages of A&C then went to look up some stuff on the internet and got sidetracked reading blogs, then i went for a run, then i showered and got ready to go out, then i went to a party at the A's place -- loads of alcohol but they didn't have the resources to make a margarita or a long island iced tea or anything fun, so i just had a couple of screwdrivers which were good but really un-strong so we asked for martinis after that. the martini practically killed my throat because it was so fucking strong and it smelt like nailpolish remover, so A said she'd go and scold the bartender for not knowing how to make a martini but i don't think she did in the end. then i came back and i was too tired to do anything so i was just on msn for a while then i went to sleep.

and today. woke up at the relatively decent time of 10 and did a bit of math. went back to sleep just now, and got woken because my mom wanted me to make a copy of her ballroom dance music cd. unfortunately all that achieved was the switching-on of the Evil Computer, because my cd-writer is being highly temperamental. so here i am, unable to resist the evils of the Evil Internet.

ah well. screwing up my life. yesyesyes.

EDIT: today's been a day full of really amusing mental images.
1. soph with bra on head, making doggie noises
2. claud standing on top of her entry proof and looking relieved
3. kelly holed up behind a piano with some random guy doing math, and everyone on the other side looking really shocked
