Well, it's the weekend again. It's amazing how quickly two days can go when you try to fit so much in to them.
What have I been doing with myself then? Well, last week was manic at work, I've had so much to do that it beggers belief. Not only that, but I have the feeling that next week isn't going to be much better, but at least I get back at 5pm, so I might get the chance to post on here for a change.
Yesterday went pretty fast. Posted on this site while I ate my breakfast, trying to catch up with all the great posts and replies. After visiting my local games shop to check on my Gamecube order, I picked up my wife and had a leisurely lunch while watching Smallville, which I had recorded earlier. Went in the the big smoke, Exeter (more like the little Smoke, it's an incredibly small city!) and bought an iron (of all things) Tried to convince my wife that I needed other things, but was reminded of how little money we had in the bank, damn!
I rushed back from Exeter to go to my first ever Tae Kwon Do lesson. Fun, but I winced when I heard the instructor say that anyone could learn to do the splits....yeah, with surgery maybe! Now I’m just sitting here with aching limbs, trying to catch up again on the posts.
What does the rest of the day hold in store for me? I’ll just have to wait and see, but you can bet it’s going to go by real fast…

Hey, you might DIE!
Time just doesn't seem to exist, when you're doing something that interests you. Just think how quickly everything goes. The weekend, the week, the month, your life. You look to things, with a hidden frown. Thinking, just how far away it really is. And it does seem that way, but once it comes, it seems like those days/weeks/months/years never mean't anything and have just vanished before your eyes.

Sorry, drifted away for a second. :0)
What exactly IS Tae Kwon Do? I mean, I know it's about some sort of defense... but there are so many, it's hard to really know.
Sure it's cool though.
(An ice-cream headache is also known as a 'Brain-freeze'. Not well known, that.)

Humanity is in waste. Only a few survivors remain, led by one man, his name is Stryke.
It all began when the trees began invading... they came from far away, kids were frightened of such odd creatures, like nothing they've ever seen before.
"What can we do! How can we stop them!"
Styke clutched his Duke of Edinburgh certificate, and stood before them all... This was it. Their final stand.

I've been doing Duke of Edinburgh stuff all day. How digging holes for trees makes me a better person, I don't know.

Tae Kwon Do? Spreading your wings a bit eh, pb? ;) Sounds cool.
I'm playing in an adult cricket match this afternoon, strangely. They're trying to blood youngsters. It's gonna take all afternoon which is a bit annoying, because it means a lot of my Sunday will be spent standing around waiting for someone to hit the ball at me. I'm bloody nervous too though, but hopefully I won't have to bowl against anyone too fast. Last time I did it bounced up and smacked me on the side of the thigh.
