I'm gonna give you some terrible thrills - 1:37 PM
I def did not get enough sleep this week and used Saturday to catch up on it. It seemed to be social event after social event. Also I use a song quote and movie quote each week, post a comment if you know it. Work
It manged to get most of my standard compounds through my GABA assay. Along with attending the Annual HortResearch quiz on Wednesday night. My team was the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad. We didn't do that badly, but neither did we win, in fact we drew for second last, and got chocolate fish for the effort. I also discovered that I have learnt lots from woman's magazines.
Social
Small side note, the cats found a predator in the house. It was disguised as the toilet paper. They took it out good.
Games
I blew my internet cap downloading Avatar: The last Airbender so no gaming for me, not that I had much time any way. My friend Shaun said that he would play with my character, since he was the one that said watch Avatar, which by the way was great. I have a question for you Shaun, When does Zuko learn to air bend?
Wellness
I have lost my first 10kg Which isn't to bad considering I started on the 25th May. So just under 2 mths. 20kg to go. Last week was a bad week and hopefully the scales won't be to mean. Lots of bad food and driving the car, need to walk for an hour to day to make up for it. Next week I will do better.
Cooking
I haven't done any cooking this week worth mentioning, but I will be making these today (I know Kelly will read this and will ask for them, so I have to now) Which will be delicious.

Media
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, well if you have read the book you will know that a lot happens in plot summary to the series of books, but as a stand alone movie, not a lot happens. Watch the previous ones before seeing this. It will make it better.
Ginger Snaps
Ummm this was a Nick choice and yeah, didn't really do anything for me. The special effects reminded me of Brain Dead.
Deja vu
This was different to what I though and kind of sweet. Not bad, but not a you must see this. If you see this at the video store and you need another one to fill out your 3 for $10 then it will be fine.
Projects
Nothing to see her. To cold and busy to do stuff.
