"The body is too weird!"
"OMG GET ALIVE!"
"This is colourful draw."

Kekekekekkekeekeeeee ... :I I don't know why the hell 500 odd people have commented on the s**t I've put up there, but reading through them is really amusing.

I suck at internets these days. I'm ordering shoes just now. They shall not suck. I also has ice-cream, which does not suck either.

That is all.

Soooo~ ... as of just over two weeks ago, I am now an officially married man. It's ******** scary. xd The actual wedding was just a really small registry office do - ourselves with some of our mutual best friends, Emma, Jules, Matt, John and Steve - buuut, unbeknownst to us, even though we'd just been thinking we'd get it all signed and get on with it then have our week away, both of our parents and our boss had organised a surprise reception in the pub for us, after we'd made obviously now false arrangements to meet up with them all afterwards with our friends for a meal and a few drinks. x_x Luckily we'd finally decided that dressing up nicely (both in plain black suits with black silk shirts, Lee with a green tie and myself with a red one) was actually a good idea, as my mum had organised a photographer ... who seemed really confused at us to say the least. It was excellent fun! All my family had made the effort to come down to Notts, including James and his wife Siu who is so pregnant that she looked ready to pop (still hasn't yet, buuut ... I'mgoingtobeanuncle! Wheee!), so that was excellent.
We got a plane out to Amsterdam the day after, and ... that was just awesome, no questions. heart

We've had a hard time thinking over names. I've always said I'd be quite happy to change mine, being how little I get on with my father, though at the same time it'd be a bit confusing, really ... Lee likes the idea of having the whole traditional change, even though there isn't a woman involved either way. :'3 Sooo, it looks like we're probably going to both change by deed-poll ... double-barrel surnames! I sort of think we'll suit them, though. Ross Gabriel Call-Blacker and Lee Alexander Blacker-Call. heart

We're getting our "wedding ring tattoos" next week! I'm getting an L on my left wrist, Lee's getting an R on his right. I'm really excited about it ... we do have actual rings, but the tattoos seem like more fun and more permanent!

Random ... but ... Lee-art. :}~ He's going through a bit of a Pantera phase at the moment, and ended up wearing something like this out last week ... it looked less "Cowboys From Hell" and more "Brokeback Mountain", but I couldn't complain!

I'm sitting in my living room on my own at 1:10am, with a now half-full cafitiere of coffee and a slab of Galaxy the size of my arm. Curled up in my duvet wearing only boxers. With tangled wet hair that's dripping red everywhere.

Sexi, no?

Lee's staying at his parents' place for a few nights (coming back on Tuesday, been there since yesterday morning) to help them move about stuff for decorating, and it's a bit s**t. He just got his sleeve tattoo finished last week, and it looks absolutely SICK HOT, but it's apparently healing really painfully. So of course, moving heavy stuff and possibly ripping skin with tension > spending time with boyfriend who is known to accidentally scratch very occassionally. That's not the only reason he's moving furnature for his dad with a bad back and tiiiiiny mum, but still ... b*****d. All I've got to keep me company is my laptop, my cats and my tv. And some porn. Might resort to that later, ufufufu ...

Yeah, I'm just updating this for no reason right now. I might do some drawing or something. Or set up the GameCube. :/ Or just watch porn. Hmmm ...

Soooo ... I've been all über hypocritical and given into something that I was pretty much always against from the start of hearing about it~ ...

Lee proposed to me right after the bells at New Year's ... couple of seconds of blank stares and rapid thoughts before I agreed. whee

It's not really something I'd thought about before far too much before that point ... but, the way that he said it when he asked me was that he wanted us to be together forever, we were living together, sharing money, around eachother constantly, clicked together perfectly, never got tired of eachother, and just as happy spending time doing nothing as spending time trying to validate our relationship ... despite things that had been said, it seemed about time to take things to the next step.

Happy happy happy. ... heart

I was going to write loads more, but it's 2:50am and I'm knackered ... and Lee should be getting home in about 20 minutes, so I might as well see if I can sleep before he gets back. If I get woken up amd "persuaded" into some sort of activity that might stop me from sleeping, I don't think I'd complain. :}

I am ... as the title says ... ********. I'm in on my oooown, excluding kitties ... I've been told to take the week of as I flaked out completely on Thursday evening because of hypogycemia ... sweatdrop Luckily I was back-shop at the time and wasn't carrying anything, I literally passed out. '-'; It's a good thing Lee was working, no-one else would've known what to do. xd Lucozade and a quick drive home~ Matt was in so he dumped me off with him and had to get back to his shift, there were only four of us working (the kitchen was closed) and Claire would have had to take over the whole place without us there. Idiot much? Why um yes. sad

So, yeah. On my own this week. Lee's started working just about full-time at the pub, which is good as he's doing less all-nighters with security, but bad because I only work four days a week. :C Humph. I could probably go back today (and, urm, yesterday too), but this'd happened once before where I ended up completely losing it at work twice in the one week (no passing out though), and t3h_boss didn't want to take any chances. Which is nice of him, I suppose. I'm getting two days sick pay, which isn't bad either. :}

Wey~

Steve or John or ... one of the guys in the flat, decided a while ago that I look like Rozz Williams when they're pissed off their faces. Which ... I don't ... in the slightest ... unless, maybe, you're pissed and off your face. o_o; But don't particularly mind being told. They've started calling me that, seeing as it's just about the same as 'Ross' anyway, but I know that within a couple of weeks it'll have morphed into 'Rose' and then 'Rosie'. Apparently I'd suit that too. :[

Urm. Yeah. KITTIES! :} Lee got one afterall! It's so cute. Little white boy with blue eyes, 10 weeks old ... heart He's calling it Zell, we think. X3~ Reuben (my cat) seems to be taking it incredibly well, having another cat in the place ... he's neutered, and the kitten isn't (yet), so I suppose he isn't really bothered about whether or not he's the dominant one.

I turn into just a big girl when it comes to kittens or puppies ... phaha. heart

I really want some good films to watch, or decent games to play or something. I might try seeing if I can tune in my freeview box again to wprk out if we can get Film Four or not yet ...

My head is absolutely thumping right now. Like ... "thonk - thonk - thonk - thonk - thonk " ... ouch.

No more Amsterdam happening. :C We thought it over and decided that it was going to cost too much, especially if we're possibly going to be buying a place rather than just renting. I'm hoping we just rent, it'll still be oooours! ;-; Instead of the money going to time away, Lee's decided that he wants a kitten. xd WHEE! He wants a little white one so that he doesn't get it mixed up with Reuben (who's black), it'll just be sho schweeeeet!

*big girl's blouse*

It's so ******** hot just now. I don't cope with heat. At all. :C Plus it was decided that our off-white room covered in posters just absolutely and completely sucked, so it had to be painted a decent colour - it's now a nice bottle-green with metal studdy panel bathroom tile thingers that we found wandering around B&Q feeling like absolute twats. Farncy! But the fumes stink and just seem to make the whole flot seem even hotter. I don't like being out in the sun either ... so have just been wandering around in boxers or "ventilated" (ie. ravaged with pen-knife) jeans, which I hate doing but can't stand anything else right now. Stupid stick-out-an-inch ribs. :C John took to wandering about completely in the buff aside from a tiny towel that covered ntohing and still wet after a cold shower the other day, so I'm not really all that bothered as I was before. That was something I never wanted to see again when not trashed.

High-light if you particularly want to know why my head's hurting. '-'; First and foremost: cold. ********. Summer. Cold. I think Matt gave me it, the wanker. Lee's got it too (unsurprising really), which sucks. Urm, other reason, both of us took the day off yesterday and just locked ourselves in our room as soon as we knew that everyone else was gone so we wouldn't have to stay quiet ... and ... urm ... my pulse's still sky-high right now. XO That was quite possibly the best skive I've ever managed. It really was enough to warrant a journal entry of it's own. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. <3

Urrrm, I'm out of stuff to whine about. Oooo, Big Brother's on ...

... "In ev'ry disco I get in, My heart is PUMIN' FOR LOVE! PUMPIN' FOR LOOOVE! Cuz when i'm thinking of you, and all the things we could dooooo ...."

DX

Matt came up with the cunning plan to upload an mp3 of that onto my phone after I left it in when I went out a while ago, and set it as my ringtone without me noticing ... let Lee in on the idea, and made him call me while I was out with Ems and Jules yesterday. YesIletthemtakemeshopping aaaaarrrrrgh don'twanttoturnintomaleshoppingfriendthatwearspink!! Anyway. Normally when it rings for anyone from home (Notts or Glasgow ... yay custom numbers :B), it plays CombiChrist ("Intruder Alert" ... weeey! Christian Death otherwise) ... so, yeah, I had no idea where that was coming from, and only realised it was my ankle pocket when I was cramped up beside the girls on a bench and was asked what was buzzing. Lee singing on the other end of the phone when I picked up. x: "M'Ah gunna havta SMACKA b***h!?"

That was fun.

Blaaaargh, Gill (my wee ickle half-sister)'s down from home this week ... yeah. WEY! XB I was working constantly last week so I could take time off this one coming, which was tiring as hell, but should be worth it. In till 3 last night. x-x Anyway. She's driving down (all on her own! D'aw!), should be here in about an hour or so ... she's taking John's room, he's off touring Europe for a month (b*****d!!) and putting up various family members seems a lot more appealing than having Nat (Matt's girlfriend ... yes, I know, tragic) moving in. Which Matt himself agreed with so much so as to have a couple of friends sleeping on the floor last week. XB

Yeah, anyway. Taking my wee sister out clubbing and pub-crawling. :'D If she has to use my ID I'll CRY.

Urm, other stuff:
- My hair now officially (ie. without leaning backwards) goes past my shoulders at the back. XB EXCITING! It was a short shelf-cut at the back at the beginning of the year. I love ridiculously-fast-growing hair.
- ... It's also now this colour rather than this one. heart
- Teriyaki tofu is the best hangover cure ever.
- Sucking strong coffee through Penguin bars with two corners at opposite ends bitten off is a close secong. (Third with tea.)
- I was bored this morning so made myself FIMO plugs and pinchers for my ears. WEY! One set of swirled red and hot pink swirled, one red and black swirled with transparent glitter, one mixed glow-in-the-dark and hot pink, one glow-in-the-dark with black glitter stars pressed into the tops (just plugs). That was fun. XB I bought loads of the stuff ages ago when it was on special offer and never got round to using any of it until then! It'll probably kill all the skin and make my earlobes fall off ... but that's a minor detail.
- Big Brother's starting to get boring(er) sad
- Reubin (my cat) has a new collar. UV COLLAR. :} It was a bracelet I bought while out shopping that I found out too late looked stupid on my too-long-too-skinny wrists cause it was too thin. It's black with transparent orange tubes coming out at the back, trimmed short so they don't annoy him. CyberPuss. : D
- LEE WANTS US TO GO TO AMSTERDAM FOR A WEEK IN AUGUST TOGETHER. D: That deserved all that bolding. Soooo much. T-T *can't wait*

I'ma go make some cake and punch. heart

I haven't updated this for exactly 5 months. o_o

Not that I ever did particularly often anyway, buuuut ... bleh.

Graduation and stuff. NYAAAAH I don't want it all to be over! ;-; It sort of makes me wish that I had done uni back home where it's 4 years rather than 3 ... but at the same time I'd never have met all my mates down here ... wouldn't have met Lee ... nyur.

I'm refusing to get a graduate job yet. I'm going to keep working at the bar for as long as I can handle ... I'm 20, that might be old, but it's still too young for a desk job!! >.< And I'm doing well enough with this anyway. Been working there for the last 2 years, so they all know me well and I get loads of tips as well as semi-long-running staff pay.

... And I think Lee and I are getting a place together. Just the two of us. ^___^ Hopefully somewhere closer to work so that we won't have to get the tram in every morning anymore, but still, just the very idea of it being just us ... even though we've been living really close for the last three years, and both of us are so close to the other four guys in our flat just now, it'll be so nice! We might even stay on in here for a bit, depending upon what the rest of the guys are wanting to do (I know that Matt and John have both said about it ... Steve's not sure, and Richie's only been living here for the last couple of terms and already seems terrified enough of us all) ... but it's a fun idea anywayzzzzz.

Speaking of the bastards, they've all gone out and left me in on my own tonight. Just me and Rubin. Rubin being my cat. :< MY LIMP HAS RETURNED!!! XO Climbing a lamp-post seemed like a good idea at the time, untill I ended up falling off it, and in turn off the pavement. Urgh. So no going out. Tonight, anyway. *hates the limp*

That will be all.

It's my birthdaaaay ...

20. Bloody 20. >__< So oooold!! Butbutbut Lee apparently feels less like a child-raper now. Which is ... all right, I suppose. Still old. Humph.

I can almost have a mortgage! *swoon* Or adopt! I think. Or ... drink in America. But I'm not ging to America any time soon, so that doesn't particularly matter.

Still. Humph.

I'm going to break an all-of-my-friends trend and stay sober today. Haw.
