[Dec16th] Not-so-festive festive blog

December 16th.  9 days till Christmas, I’m hoping some people are ‘balls deep’ in the Christmas spirit right now.  I’d like to be able to say the same but I’ve only done 1 christmassy thing so far and that was watching “Elf” on Monday night (to lift spirits after watching a not so festive/ happy documentary on the whole Jamie Bulger thing).  It’s not that I’m scroogey, I love christmas, I love that it brings people together, and sometimes those with bad personality traits will add a silencer to there douche-ness and be less selfish and more positive.

Christmas is great.  Now…my reasons for not being as into Christmas as I’d like to be is simply because a) I’m super DOOPER broke, I STILL haven’t had my Student Loans, and I’ve been scraping by in terms of living and missing out on social outings for pretty much the past 3/4 months,  it’s beyond a joke.  So as with the lack of monies, I’ve not been able to so far by a single christmas present.  The priority people I have to buy for is my sis and my 2 lil bro’s, as they deserve presents from me, my parents would normally be higher up on my priority list but this year I’ve just pretty much lost all care for them to be honest.  The only thing I have them to be thankful for really is the fact they haven’t kicked me out of the small little room I inhabit in there house.  That isn’t too say they don’t make things painfully unbearable though, my dads the main offender, I generally stay in my room 99% of the time I’m at home, and if I need something from the kitchen and see him in there, I’ll just go back to my room and wait it out…why?…because it seems like pretty much every time I get near him, he’ll have something negative to say to me, and I’m pretty sure he gets off on being a dick to me, and my evidence for that is the fact of how petty he can be in terms of what he’ll find to have a go at me for…for example, the other day he got all mouthy about me washing my hands in the sink that had some cup in it that was my lil bro’s, had a big go at me for washing my hands there (which weren’t dirty…i simply washed them because I was prepping some food and it was hygenic too), first off the water off my hands was going down the side of the bowl…so even if my hands ‘were’ dirty, the water wasn’t going to go into this bowl of ‘fairy liquid’-ified water that this lil cup was in, and 2ndly had I gone through the trouble of moving the bowl out of the sink, he would’ve definitely had a go at me for doing that cause of the mess that would’ve made around the kitchen side.  He’s just a complete dick.  Now…next up is my mum, I don’t have as much of a problem with her as I do for my dad, but since I moved back in with my parents (in Jan 09), things have gone mucho’s down hill between me and my mum, and I’m not quite sure where it stems from.  Now…me and my mum have never really been close, my mum just has never been that talkative with me, however she used to at least from time to time check up on how I was doing and do the occasional petty motherly love thing of like offer me a cup of tea, or something small like that, but this year all that kind of thing has stopped, I don’t mind that soo much, but it kind of sucks of how she has just stopped asking how I’m doing every once in a while…I don’t think she’s asked me anything of that nature since about March/ April this year, I started university in September (which is pretty much a big deal to me), and I’ve been busy with that for 3/4 months and now I’m on my christmas break.  Yet with the build up to university, and all the time I’ve been at university, she hasn’t asked me once how I’m doing, which kind of sucks…  Don’t get me started on my dad though, he stopped giving a shit about what was going on along long time ago, I don’t think hes ever been interested in how I did at school, and all he cares about is that I’m not just at home on benefits.  My Nan and Grandad whom I’ve seen every so often (maybe once a month) always ask how I’m doing and how uni is going, and although it’s only usually a 1 minute conversation, it’s just nice to know someone gives a damn, ya know?  I’m quite an independent person though, so I don’t need that kind of fussing over, but still your parents are pretty much supposed to do the occasional parenty things, were as all I get is criticism and an awkward feeling of resentment from them, and it’s those sort of awkward silences and that sense of “I can tell you don’t want me here” that come from something mundane as me being in the kitchen making a cup of tea and then one of my parents coming in to get something etc that really do put a grey cloud over me the whole time that I’m at home.

Thus the reason I spend 99% of my time in my room, and thus the reason why I have surrounded myself with dvd’s, tv shows, video games, and alsorts of distractions to keep me occupied and entertained in a place that I don’t want to be in :( ….I just want my loans to come through then hopefully I will have enough (if I’m given enough) to move into some Student accommodation and just get the fuck away from these 2 people that have stopped caring where my life goes and just want to hate on me all the time.  Last year I hadn’t really seen my parents much for the year cause I moved out, so last christmas wasn’t as bad in terms of family meetings because I hadn’t been around in a while, so they didn’t really have anything to criticise me over, plus the fact that I only came to see them on christmas day and that was just to go eat at my Nan and Grandads…so there was enough christmas day distraction to keep either of them from being an ass to me.  This year though, like I said…it’s been a year of downhill-ness, I never have any conversation with my parents, and it’s just awkward to be around them because of the time that keeps passing etc.  The last time I spoke to my dad was the time he was a prick to me the other week regarding the sink thing, and the last time I spoke to my mum was on Monday when she told me she needed to go in my room to use the boiler, but before that the last time she spoke to me wasn’t for like 2 weeks, and that was to have a go at me for my other lil debt problems (which I’d love to be able to fix…yet obviously she thinks that her giving me a hard time for it will magically make some money appear for me to pay off said debts).

It’s just so fucked up and shitty living at home with my parents, and I really would rather just get out as soon as possible, and hopefully never ever have to move back home again, and to more of an extreme…even see them again, as they’ve done enough damage to whatever relationship we could claim to have this year and when I think of them I can only think of 2 people that just make me feel bad, that’s it.

Anywho…back to the lack of monies due to no student loans…I haven’t been able to buy a present, or go for catch up festive drinks with a load of my friends whom I havent seen for a while, or stroll around shops and be ambushed with the sight of christmassy decorations and music etc.  I’ve just pretty much been at home most of the time with no money to do anything…and as my room has no decorations in my room (unless the fact theres a picture from a christmas episode of South Park on my South Park calendar this month counts), and I haven’t been to anywhere were there is festivities going on.  Christmas has pretty much just been a myth to me :\ …which is kind of how it was last year due to the fact last December I came out of a 16 month relationship, and the break up interferred with getting any sort of christmas decorations for our old place etc.  Still, I can take positive from the fact that I can do a nice 5 second sigh and ponder about how christmas can only get better next year…

and on that note…I end this blog…

I’ve kind of fell out of my blogging loop for the past month (although I’ve done a couple of lil bits for youtube), but I definitely expect to pick up the pace now…what with 4 weeks off uni to play with :) …so expect some “Top 2009 lists” coming soon, as well as some blogs on stuff more positive than this one.  I’ll also be updating a few bugs and possibly adding a few new features to the blog soon too.

Why can’t the “ex” drama end :(

First off, I had another blog, a happier more positive blog, about 80% ready to go up, it probably would’ve gone up yesterday but then shit happened. :(

Back story time.

I used to live near the Preston docks, in a cool little place with my ex girlfriend (Laura), when we moved into that place together last year, we paid £225 each towards the £450 deposit (cause we rented the property).
Last December after 16 months, mine and Laura’s relationship came to an end, a mutually agreed end, one which we were going to try remain friends afterwards.  She moved out the place we had about December 28th, and I moved out something like January 6th.

At first, after we’d both moved and gone our seperate ways, there was little to no talking, then eventually things picked up again via text, but it was nothing major, just questions mostly regarding the move, and mostly they came from her to me.  She initially wanted us to remain friends cause she didn’t want to lose me as a friend, and I could respect that, but at the same time I thought maybe for the first few months it’d be best if we didn’t see each other etc because it’d be very awkward.

Anyway!  Time passed, she moved on, she got a new BF, I have pretty much moved on too, and my heads been fucked recently with depression.  So if anyone has come out of this a winner, it’s her.  Although as far as I’m concerned there wasn’t a competition.  Sure my life was shit and I was very down by it, and apparently Laura’s life was all joy, but still I didn’t wish down on her one bit.

The thing is, at first she was nice, she was the person I was at one point in my life very very very in love with, but as the weeks have passed she has definitely changed (towards me at least).   When I was at rock bottom emotionally with my life, and I sort medical help regarding depression, I told Laura that for the next couple of weeks at least I didn’t want to see her or speak to her, just so that it wasn’t interferring with me.  I said this because she was being all sweet and normal, and asking for me to do her some favours (mainly putting some tv shows to disk for her etc), but it wasn’t ideal for me to have her asking favours of me and being all nice to me when admittedly she was one of the several reasons I became depressed recently.

That aside though.  I didn’t speak to her for a few weeks, then out of the blue I got the letter from our old letting agency regarding our deposit, we was getting the full amount back, but the thing was is that they sent the letter to my parents address (where im at) but made the cheque out to Laura.  I told Laura about this, and I’d also told her about the bills we had for our old place that we was gonna use the deposit money to pay off.

We had something like £470 in bills for our old address.  I haven’t got them in my hand to quote them, but it was like £280 for Electricity (for October till when the keys were handed in), £70 for Water (for the same period) and an outstanding bill for 1 and a bit months council tax (just over £100).  The other thing is, the bills were coming to more than the deposit amount, so I generously offered to pay the excess seeing as how I was there for a week longer (even though not much got done in that time).
Anyway, when I told Laura about the cheque and the bills, she totally changed on me, she asked me to give her the cheque but said she isn’t paying anything towards the bills because she didn’t live there.  Which! is a massive untruth because the bills are for mostly a period that she was there.  I was only there about a week longer than her so there is no way I can be made responsible for the whole bill.
The second shock that day came from how unnecessarily mean she was being to me, I was just talking to the point about the bills and there importance to get them sorted and over and done with, yet she felt the need to bring things like “my life is so much better now without you” and “I hate you” and bombarding me with messages to “fuck off”.  After that I was just shocked and just ignored it all, and tried to think of alternate ways to try and get this cheque thing sorted out.

The first thing I was going to try was to try calling the landlords of our old place, telling them about the bills (possibly even sending them copies of the bills to see for themselves), and asking them to either write the cheque to me to sort them out, or for them to just pay the bills off themselves.  I didn’t make these arrangments as I just couldnt get round to doing it, recently I’ve put off a lot of things because I just dont like the stress of having to fix all these problems or constraints in my life.

Then!  Out of the blue, Laura commented on something on my facebook (we’re not “friends” on there so it must’ve been a note that everyone can see type thing), and then after that she started texting me, nothing major, just sort of apologising for the other day when she gave me shit, and basically made me think I could trust her to sort the cheque out and get the bills sorted.  So on Monday I met her outside of a Uni building, gave her the cheque and the bills, and went.

THEN!  Yesterday, she text me out of the blue saying she isn’t going to pay anything to those bills, she’ll give me my £225 share and thats it.  :O  I tried to rationalise with her about it, and the fact both our names are on those bills, and the fact that we both lived there for like 95% of the time the bills covered.   She was being very stubborn about this, and basically said if I don’t shut up, she’d not even give me my own £225 back.  :( !
The thing is, I can’t afford to pay her half of the bills even if I got my half back off her, so I don’t know what she’s playing at.  It really bummed me out the fact she had tricked me regarding the cheque and was trying to cause more hassle for me.  When I got hom yesterday I was talking to my lil sis and I told her about what happened (just cause I needed someone to talk too and she was there), but my sis was a douche in the sense she texted Laura.  I don’t know what she said, but I didn’t know Chloe had Lauras number, nor did I want anyone to get involved, but Laura gave me more shit as if I had asked my Sis to get involved, I just told Laura to ignore my sis.

Now!  The thing that really really made me just need to vent this whole situation out is a hurtful lie Laura said about me to my sister, she said something to my sis in a text along the lines of “I slapped Laura about”, which is just utterly shocking for me to read.  First of all it’s untrue, but second of all, if she’s telling my sister this to try and make herself look like a victim, then who else is she telling/ told?

I text Laura back about this asking what she was playing at saying things like that, and she seemed dillusional like she’d convinced herself she was telling the truth.  I NEVER once hit Laura, and if anything she was pretty much the dominant person in our relationship.  There were 2 situations that I can think of that I regret from our relationship during arguments, but I certainly never hit her, and find it truly painful to think she’s selling me off as that kind of person.

It also got me thinking too.  Laura was always a bit melodramtic, and she was definitely an attention seeker (she admits to that), but for her to use me at her expense, putting me down to try and make herself seem like some sort of victim, especially when we was meant to try and be friends, that just hurt.
When we was together she used to tell me stories of how one of her ex’s beat her up apparently, and she told me several things about her parents which when I heard I found them to be unforgivable.  When I was with Laura, I always had an evasive nature towards Lauras parents, basically she had told me things they’d done that I just would never forgive my own parents of, yet she apparently did forgive them and wanted me and her, and her parents to do stuff whenever possible pretty much.
Now though, I’m thinking the shit she probably told me about her parents and her ex’s was probably bullshit too, or at the very least highly exagerrated to get attention.

Still though, all that aside, ALL I have wanted recently was just to get all the bills sorted from the old place, and all the ties between me and Laura would’ve been pretty much cut loose.  Yet she is going out of her way recently to try and make me seem like a bad guy, yet she is the one doing the bad things to me.  I have no idea what’s going on in her head or where she’s taking inspiration for these “stories”, but I’m just really really hurt by it all to be honest.

I’ve gotta go to the doctors tomorrow regarding my depression for my 3rd check up, I was hoping tomorrow would be the day I can start getting my anti-depressants in monthly doses, but seriously all the shit that happened yesterday really made me consider walking in front of a car on my way home from work, I was meant to be going to the cinema last night with a friend too, but that didn’t happen because Laura also felt the need to text me a bunch of stuff along the lines of “I wanted to break up with you for ages”, “I never loved you”, “you’re the worst person I’ve ever met”, and it just messed me up and I was actually crying for a point when I got home.  Not neccesarily because of the hurtful things she said (which did hurt) but just the whole thing, the way she was acting, the lies she was telling, the further money troubles she was trying to cause me.

Yesterday for me was just a big wake up call to the fact that I’m still vulnerable, I’m still weak emotionally, and I still need medical help regarding depression.   I have no idea what my next move is in regards to trying to smooth things off with those bills etc, but all I know is that I am still somewhat in shock at the way my ex is acting, and I just can’t believe she’s being so hateful towards me.  I feel as if she has been brainwashed somewhere?

I didn’t intend this blog to be a “name calling” type deal if that is how it’s portrayed but I really just had to let all these feeling out in the form of a blog.  I think my next stop now (realistically) in regards to the money thing is to get some legal advice or something.

:(

*fingers crossed my next blog is back to normal/ less problematic things*

December – Depression

*note to self*
Don’t be jobless for any period of time whilst you live in a flat, have sOoOo many bills comin at you, and expect things to figure themself out.  They don’t.

It’s December 3rd, and there are 3 reasons why I haven’t blogged since November 17th.

1) Normally I’d write these blogs in private on the laptop in the ‘play room’.  Laura has had a uni paper due so took the laptop for her own use and I didn’t want to come and write blogs on the PC and have her coming over with faux interest, and criticising what I put down (I think the fact that I have a blog scares her).

2) I sort of have a job…so my days have been more constructive.  It’s a part time casual type thing – more details soon.

3) I actually had 2 blogs written (in draft), neither are to do with this, and neither will be getting released as time has passed, they were nothing important, just things I wrote, and didn’t get round to taking the “current mood” picture I like to add…so for that reason alone those blogs didn’t get published.  I’ll read them and re-do them if they have a reason to live on here.

Now!…To the blog.

December – Depression, fkn lame blog title there, and I’m not trying to seek attention, but seriously, so much has got me down at the moment :( .  I’m in a lot of shit in terms of money going out, and I feel like pressure is just increasing.  This should be the month of christmas, I see christmas lights decorating the city centre, decorations in shops, adverts on tv and the radio.  It’s 3 weeks till Christmas, and I’m fucked for cash.  Me and Laura haven’t been able to decorate our flat (I’d of liked to of done that this week really).  I’d of liked to of done at least a little bit of christmas shopping by now…but I’ve done none.

First off, to my name right now I have about £100 in the bank, and £100 in my wallet that needs to go in my bank.  Tomorrow, £450 needs to come out of said bank to pay rent.  Also tomorrow I believe £45 wants to come out for Car Insurance (which should’ve been paid last week, but no…I apparently put the money in the account to late, and instead of that getting paid, I just got a £38 charge off Natwest instead due to the D/D, and a letter from my car insurers saying I owe them last months payment.  I tried to reason with Natwest to get that charge revoked, but they couldn’t give a shit.  So basically tomorrow I need to either lend near £300 to be able to pay rent and car insurance, or…they both fail to go out cause I don’t have the money, landlord and car insurance get pissed for the late payment, and Natwest are laughing all the way to themselves with 2 x £38 bank charges they will charge me because there automated computer figured out that a payment could not be made from my account.
Laura can’t help with rent as she has no money, and the reason I’m paying £450 for rent this month on my own is because I borrowed my rent money off Laura during my jobless period and agreed to pay the rent next move cause she covered for me last month.

That aside, I probably have nearly another £200 in bills to pay between now and the end of the month (most of them residing in the middle of the month).  I also have Halifax fucking my life up too.  Too long a story to tell, but basically I had an account with them with £100 overdraft, 1 time I went over the overdraft by £4.something, I put the cash in the account to sort that out a day or 2 after I realised the account had gone in the red, but they gave me a charge about 15 days later (which I didnt realise), then the account from there kept picking up charges, I asked them to look into what happened and perhaps refund the charge, but they said no (as they do), then from there whilst I was getting them to sort it out, they kept adding charges onto the account because it was in the red with them.  Its all got out of hand, and now they’ve passed it to a collection agency, they want £290 out of me (£100 of that is the overdraft I was using), and the other £190 is £190 in charges they snowballed onto my account.

I also need to get a service done on my car, one that will probably cost me at least £100, but I reckon it’d be more close to £200.  I can’t afford that.
I also still owe Laura about £100, as well as owing my dad £400 (which he was kind enough to lend me to help pay off other bills).

I don’t even want to scare myself into adding up how much I owe at this moment.  Then somehow I have to get christmas presents.  It’s too much.  I feel like the world just has it in for me.

Right now I wish I could just be happy.  Sure in a normal working situation I still wouldnt be rich, but I’d know my bills will be covered, and I’d have cash to spare.  I should be able to talk about decorating the house (I don’t even have an advent calendar this year :( ), and be thinking of what to get who for a present.

:(

In other news.  Things recently between me and Laura have been a bit rocky.  Some days are good, some days are bad.  In general we’ve both come to the agreement that it seems that we are no longer in a relationship, but more or less just housemates.  There are little things on either side that have caused this bigger problem, and money is definitely one of them (I can’t afford to do shit with her), plus she has low hopes for me and has dented my self esteem a number of times whilst I’ve been jobless too.

I’m not messing around here but a couple of times recently I’ve thought about ending it, as in dying.  No debt then.  Just a simple “off” switch flicked.  I don’t think anything will come afterwards, I won’t have time to think about it…not even a brief “Game Over” screen.  Stress = relieved.

I wouldn’t class myself as suicidal though, those thoughts are over nearly as quick as they start up.

Maybe I need to somehow find a place that will listen to my problem, hear me out, and let me borrow maybe £1000 even though I’m currently not in full time work, and on more of a cash in hand type deal.  Just so I can get the December debt off, and then I can work on repaying back that money in Jan – to – March.

I really hope things can change soon, I feel at this moment like I couldn’t even laugh at a great comedy, or smile on a nice sunny morning, or even appreciate the snow we may get.

I also miss having a range of good food open to me, now I pretty much buy what I’ll eat that day depending on what I can spare really, I miss things like when I could do a big shop and line up the freezer with a number of options for the next week.  I’ve had my fair share of “Super Noodles” and stuff like that counting as “meals” a lot recently (not cause I’m too lazy to cook, but because they’re fairly cheap and on offer a lot).

Current Mood: Down on (not for) life.

Halloween-Eve.

So…October 30th, 2008.

Tomorrow will be Halloween.  My plans are a sort of house party at mine and Lauras, then possibly moving out to night clubs to get further drunk and see other peoples costumes etc. I say “sort of” cause I kinda have no idea whats going on or a definite list of who’s gonna be there.  I know a couple of my friends will be there, and some of Lauras mates whom I know enough to be able to chat too, but then she’s got other mates I have no clue about comin, but it should be all good.  We’ve decorated the house now though…in total we’ve bought things from 5 different shops, we got a bunch of cheap tack, as well as some decent stuff that will be definitely keepers for next year.

Personally I love dressing up for Halloween, heck, I just love dressing up as something full stop.  Getting drunk in and amongst Fancy Dressers rules.  Last year I was Dracula, this year I’m James from Team Rocket.  I also got to dress up like a Pirate for my gf’s birthday last year, and I’m hoping to squeeze another fancy dress night out sometime between the years end so I can be Ken from Street Fighter, I pretty much got the hair, just need to get red martial arts clothes pretty much.  I only like dressing up though if I’m going all out, no half ass-ing, people need to be able to know what I am.  I can put that aside this halloween cause of the fact I’m James from Team Rocket, and not everyone watched Pokemon (or remembers them from it), but to see me dressed up and to see James in the cartoon, you’d definitely know who I was.  On Tuesday me and the GF went shopping, had to buy a bunch of things that are just getting cut into etc, and everything I bought is womens clothes (except my gloves and my white jeans), James is campy though, so it fits good.  I got my spray on hair colouring (needed lilac), had to last minute get it off eBay, which came in the post yesterday (which reminds me, I need to leave good feedback to the lady who sent it).  My GF did a test spray and the colour looks more purple than it should, however she sprayed it from like an inch away from my head, so that may be why, when I rubbed the area and looked at my hand it was the right colour…but most people I’ve seen who’ve fancied dressed as James (from google searching) have had there hair blue…which isn’t quite right, so hopefully the colour will look right when sprayed from a proper distance and I’ll be 1 up-ing those blue hair using guys.

Team Rocket!

Team Rocket!

I’ve spent around £30 on my costume in total, which right now is quite a bit of money to me, plus the fact I need to be able to get some drinks on Friday etc…I have some money aside to pay for my share of the rent next week, but the costume and Friday is cutting into that money, I should’ve been getting some money from my last job (unpaid holidays) which hopefully will come on Fri…but I have no idea how much that will be, or if it will definitely come through on Fri.  I’ve also applied for jobseekers (financial aid to those out of work who want a job), but apparently I’m not entitled to that due to some tax year thing and because my GF is a full time student and she works part time (although she has no way got enough to support me), so I’ve had to call up about that, fill in some form when it comes, and hope for the best…  There’s also hope of me getting a temp job going at my dads place eBaying motorcycle parts, which should just mean I need to nip into there shop, take some photos, write down details, then go home and get it all listed…do that say 5 days a week maybe, and keep tabs on winning items/ delivery, etc…  That could be fairly cool and more interesting than some of my previous jobs, but whether that opportunity will actually stay solid and go ahead…who knows.

Really struggling with cash at the moment though.  Really bad!  I’ve got a tab going on with my GF of things I owe her for, so when I do get a new job…it won’t be as if I have money again…it’ll be me paying her back first, the money I’ve been borrowing has been for nothing of pleasure though, strictly bills.  Thankfully I have a lot to keep me entertained at home (movies, video games, internet), etc…so it’s not like I feel like I have nothing to do, friends come round…hang out here, etc.  I did miss out on a little college reunion thing last week though, a few guys from my 1st year college course were meeting up and went bowling and went to Pizza hut I believe, would’ve loved to of gone, but Karma made that less possible by having my car get boned with my ignition playing up, -£.  We got our first electricity bill in like the 6 months of living here last week too, thats come to about £400+, which although that is high and leaves us unable to pay it right away at the moment, but on the other hand 6 months worth of electricity (considering we use a LOT of it) at £440 ain’t bad, thats like £75 a month, which me and the gf would split, so thats less than £40 each, which is quite good I suppose.  Fuck though, I need some sort of magical lottery win or something so bad right now, or just a decent opportunity to make money.  Right now the job market is in a drought, loads more people need work than there are positions opening up, it sucks! :(

Aside from the worry of the pending bills that just don’t stop, and my bank balance that has nothing coming at it, I’m keeping myself occupied.  After I’ve knocked out some job searching/ applying, I’m left with nothing to do but play video games pretty much, and recently with setting up the spare room I’ve been getting to do a lot of that even when Lauras home (where as previously we pretty much had everything hooked upto the 1 main TV, thus meaning I couldnt just play games and leave her with nothing to do, and she couldnt just watch tv and leave me with nothing to do).
Mostly I’ve been playing Smash Bros Brawl on Nintendo Wii, finishing long sessions of Dead Rising on 360, and getting back into Pokemon games on the DS/ GBA.  Another kick in the nuts to me right now with having no money is it is prime video game release right about now.  Loads of sweet games are out and coming out soon because everyone puts out hits before christmas.  So I just have to be reminded when in shops, or online of all these great games coming out, and know I won’t have any of them anytime soon :( and the only thing good I can salvage from that is that when I do get to play them, some of them will be cheaper in price for me to buy (but a lot of 360 friends won’t be online as much playing the games when they aren’t new…:p).  November is also M.O.T month for my car, and December is Christmas.  It’s just a financial ass whooping for me right now and for the forseeable future.  If I wasn’t so laid back, and if it wasn’t for video games, I would probably be suffering from severe depression right now.

Anyway, I intend to get a right pic-fest going for Halloween (should get a disposable camera really), I’ll do a blog on Saturday hopefully (or maybe Sunday) with the aftermath of it all.
