Sorry your not a winner.

Well its been a pretty uneventful week so this will be a pretty short update.

Tonight is presentation night for one of the leagues I bowl in so there should be a little money coming my way (already getting spent on petrol).

Tomorrow I am going to Manchester for a random night out with some cool people (pictures shall follow).

I finally gave in to temptation too. Today I ordered myself a nice T-Mobile G1 so I shall see how that goes.
I may post an update tomorrow night from it, see how it copes with things.

Until next time remember one thing…..Mama don’t want no fat on foods from no cooking oil.

Just the tempest, the temptress and me.

February 10, 2009 at 1:07 pm (Bowling, Night Out, Rant)

Well after three days off, its back to being at work and its all fun and games.

Today I’m feeling pretty awful. I’m just not really in the mood for anything apart from going back to bed to hibernate. Not content with having my day ruined by having to go back to work, it was freezing this morning and my internet connection is playing up. Anyway enough of that, this is how I spent my weekend.

Saturday.I woke up around lunch time with all intensions of cleaning my room / car but that idea went out of the window. Waited to see who was going out but never got an answer. Fuckers. Went to Tesco to pick some stuff up (Ibuprofen, Relentless and something to eat).  Text some people but never got a reply.

Sunday.  Got up at 7:50am (even though it was my day off). Got dressed and attempted to call Martin at about 8:30 to sort out what time he wanted picking up. Went to pick other people up and headed down to the bowling alley for the tournament. Got all my stuff ready and was just about to start practise when I got a phone call from Martin saying he’d just checked his phone.  Raced from one side of Hartlepool to the other to get him, and get back before practise was over, which I just to say made.  Threw a couple of shots which felt pretty good and had a quick smoke before things kicked off.

The first round of qualifying was pretty interesting. Bowled well all the way through with some minor issues. The 9th frame of the second game I managed to rip the insert tape out of my ball, and me being who I am didn’t have any spare. Managed to get some and proceeded to spend the third game trying to get my thumbhole fitting properly again. Managed to make the cut to the second round by qualifying second. Quick trip to Greggs for food then round two.

The second round went even better then the first, managing to catch a good pair of lanes and score pretty well. A couple more 200 games, a split pickup or two and I was feeling good for the final.

The finals was a strange format. Four players all against each other, with all previous pinfall being cancelled out. The bowler with the highest score from each game also receiving 20 bonus pins making it a little more interesting. First game I struggled with a low 170 putting me third. The second game I found something special striking 8 out of 9 shots (one with a very questionable single pin leave) ending on 248 putting me 1st with a 27 pin buffer back to 3rd. The final game was a mess. Everyone was leaving pins everywhere, and I had to spare in the tenth and get good count for the win. The ball never got off my hand leaving me with 4 pins. The second shot was even worse, grabbing the hell out of it and picking up 2 of the remaining 4 for third place. There is a little piece the tournament here. Tournament finished so I decided to drop my car off at home and get wankered.

Monday. Well I woke up feeling pretty rough after consuming a copius amount of alcohol the night before so I had a bit of a lazy day. Finally got round to tidying my room but not much else.  Went bowling (which was a little painful given my swollen thumb from the days bowling before), then went out for an hour before retiring to bed.

Anyway that was my weekend. Only 10 days to go until a random night out in Manchester which should be fun.

One final note. I fucking hate Valentines Day. Is it just there as a reminder for all the single people that they are alone in this world (well that and to grab money out of everyone)? I’m contemplating locking myself in a room with a vast amount of booze and just getting shitfaced then shouting at random people who are on facebook.

Until next time, have fun.

I have no lover, and she hasn’t the prettiest eyes.

January 26, 2009 at 1:19 pm (Awesome, Bowling, Guitar, Night Out)

I’m a little bored so I thought I would post again.

I have the most awesome friends ever. I got a random e-mail this morning asking me what I was doing in Feb. As it turns out I’m off to some crazy Metal club which strippers with people who like to party so it should be a fun night.  Just booked the day off from work before hand so I can get down there and start drinking around fourish. If things goto plan, I’ll be leaving mid afternoon then back home to get changed and go out back down here on Saturday night.

Tonight is back to bowling which should be fun. I have a tournament coming up in two weeks so best get some practise in to make sure I can finish in the top 3 and make some money.  I’ve completely changed my game back to how it was, and I’m scoring better then ever at the minute so I’ve gotta be happy with that. If anyones interested, I was throwing two handed for a while but then I ran into a few issues with it so went back to what I know best. Video below: 

On a completely different topic, I should stop going in random moods. Saturday night I took my Paramore CD out of the CD player and thew it in the back of my car. Up until now, I still cannot find it and wanted to listen to it on the way to work.  Still had my hardcore CD so there was some Every Time I Die getting blasted on the way up.

Anyway thats enough for now while I decide which guitar I like the most.

Lets get down to business.

January 23, 2009 at 11:52 am (Rant) (, )

Right,  time for an update.

 

The list has currently  went tits up  been put on the backburner for a few days / weeks as a few more important things have come to light.

 

I currently hate people who don’t think I’m as awesome as they should. I know that sounds like I’m blowing my own trumpet, but is there any need for people who suck at life to think that they are better then you? I just want to give them all a letter stating:

 

“Dear Sir / Madam

 

Thank you for wasting my time. Please follow all instructions below clearly and you will become a better person.

 

Step 1 – Acquire yourself a blunt object and lock yourself in a room.

Step 2 – Align aforementioned blunt object with the centre of your forehead.

Step 3 – Ram blunt object into your forehead as hard as possible.

Step 4 – Realise your a fucking idiot. If this has been unsuccessful please go back to step 2.

 

Kindest Regards. “

 

Also ignorant / manipulative people. You know the kind who only talk to you when they want something? They should also be given the letter.

So here I am. I was toying with the idea of restarting my LiveJournal account again, but WordPress looked so much better. 

Currently I don’t have much good stuff going on in my life so I made the decision to create a list of 100 things to do in 100 days (almost reminiscent of My Name Is Earl, but for no reason at all).  The list is currently in creation and will be posted over the next few days when I manage to complete it. Some of the stuff on there is completely obscure and some is simply things I’ve wanted to do for a while but never got round to going / had the balls to actually do.

I think I may have recruited two people to join in this with me so I don’t feel like a complete tool, but I guess I’ll have to see where that one goes.

So yeah….this will mostly be used as a journal accounting stuff that happen as I cross things off, and there will be random posts about general stuff that has happened / happening. Just so it feels more like my old LJ account:

Welcome to the messed up Hollyoaks episode that is my life.
