Not much. Saturday I got my hair cut, and spent the evening curled up in a chair under a sleeping bag with Mike watching DVDs on his computer (Speed and The Butterfly Effect - the latter of which my brain wouldn't stop thinking about for a couple of days). Sunday we joined Pete Clay, Acronym and Pete's friend Richard (v cute in an indie-boy way) for a drink in the Maypole and Mike cooked me roast duck for dinner - yum.

The week's been mostly quiet - too tired for clubbing on Tuesday we listened to metal from my X5 instead, enjoying ernie's compilation. Wednesday lunchtime I had a driving lesson which went well. Late Thursday lunchtime was more entertaining though, as I took part in the Heroes or Zeroes music quiz on 6music. Vic's probably my favourite radio presenter, and it was lovely to get to talk to her after I've been chatting by email for quite a while. I didn't do terribly well in the end, but I reckon there were only 3 points extra I could have got if I'd been on the ball, and even that wouldn't have been enough to get me into today's final. If you want to hear it you can get it via Listen Again from http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/ - it's 1 hour and 20 mins into Vic's show.

Last night I cooked for a change and then spent most of the rest of the evening in the terribly rock and roll pastime of trying to untangle my crochet thread. It is a knot of gordian propensities. I refuse to give in and cut it though. The weekend should be more exciting. I'm so going out clubbing tonight and I really hope people will come with me. Can't really afford Bmovie's train fare so the Kambar it is. And Sunday is the long-awaited NME tour - Maximo Park, We Are Scientists, Arctic Monkeys and The Mystery Jets. It should be really really good fun.

If you're mad enough to think it's worth listening to I'll be on 6music on Steve Lamacq's show some time around 4:45 this afternoon.

I've just been headhunted to appear on Steve Lamacq's show next week, Tuesday apparently. They have a feature called "good day/bad day" where you pick the record you'd want to listen to on each type of day, then they play one of them, depending on what sort of day you've had. I wonder what Tuesday will be like.

Had a pleasant time at the quiz last night anyway. Our democratic approach to the cash pot question (how many accidents were there in 2000 (iirc) as a result of injuries related to flowerpots) meant we averaged 3 guesses and came out only a couple of hundred from the reality, somewhere around the 3500 mark. Shame we didn't know how old a horse is when it stops being a filly and starts being a mare. Our showing in the quiz itself was less good, respectably somewhere around the middle though. And the anoraks came 6th. 6th. Bloody hell.

And I finished Pride and Prejudice (the book) when I got home and hence went to sleep far too late but with a big smile on my face. Which was good, cos I'd had some bad times during the day. All in all things are OK I guess.
