Sniffle me Timbers

So the annual sniffles is upon me. Pretty rubbish couple of days, bunged up to the max and may aswell have vick's vapour rub coming out my ears.

I LOVE wearing clothes that are now massively too big for me, even if I do look like an absolute dork. After getting on the scales yesterday it's official I have lost an actual stone. Yeehar. Gotta lose another...with Christmas coming up this isn't looking that promising, oh well.

(I wish I bought the vapour rub to work...)

I'm very annoyed that Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill are taking a 'mid season break' or some shit. This was my Tues, pretty much depended on Chuck and Blair, booooo up yours CW! Yes, I do realise that was a bit sad, but what're you gonna do?

Watched a weird film last night called 'Hunger' on channel 4. Basically about a load of Irish Republicans in Prison going on hunger strike to fight for their rights. Was disturbing to say the least. I say disturbing as there was lots of naked men getting thrown around and beaten as well as two naked men in a prison cell smeared with poo. Now correct me if i'm wrong but that is FUCKING DISGUSTING. Having said this, I stuck with it and watched the entire thing - there was an epic scene between the guy leading the hunger strike and a priest which was pretty much the longest scene i've ever seen in my life spanning about 20 minutes. It was highly unnerving watching Sands starve himself, becoming so frail he couldn't hold his own body weight up. I thought if people go on hunger strike you pin them down and feed them through a tube? Obviously not. Anyway, crackin' film, not for the faint hearted.

Back to ye olde drawing board.
