fudge it

fuck yeah tumblr

i don’t know why i started using tumblr now. i thought it was just another way to blog, but it seems more like a scrapbooking version of twitter or something. which you’d understand if you too were on tumblr, but you’re not, so forget it. anyway. currently tumblr is all crazy about formspring.

formspring is a form where people can send questions to you anonymously. i’m pretty sure hemitboy was one of the first to try it out, and so i created a form for me. but then because i didn’t like the idea of people anonymously asking me questions like that i disabled it (i’m also not keen on receiving anonymous gift cards either, but there you go. and no, i still haven’t spent any one of the fifty quid on it). when i logged in today there were questions waiting for me.

anyway. tumblr. yeah. you can also submit posts to other people’s tumblrs, so i submitted this picture to fyeahpixarmovies and the tumblrites start ‘liking’ and ‘reblogging’ it all over the place. it didn’t get much of a reaction on my tumblr though, did it. there’s a message in there somewhere, i know.

tumblr themes can be oh so pretty...

…but such a bitch to mess around with. i love this theme by metalab but it’s been a nightmare adding commenting to it. if they dare to look around they will probably be very horrified by what they find. don’t know why am bothering though, it’s not like anyone comments anyway. no, they just send anonymous gift cards, for like fifty quid.

(and i will not even think of spending it until i find out who it is from either…)

A Fine Frenzy - New Heights

no, this is not me taking a turn for the worse and listening to music that doesn’t make you want to stick your head in a blender or something (that’s how brother #2 puts it, anyway. and brother #3. crap.) but i do like A Fine Frenzy.

i also like working from home. i’m not working from home right now, but everyone else is. that’s why i like it so much. nothing personal, obviously. conversations with office people recently have been as follows:

C: i trust you.
me: fool.
C: that much is true.

and then there was also:

A: i need to transfer a call to you. what’s your number?
me: who is it?
A: what’s your number?
me: who is it?!
A: what’s your number?!
me: who. is. it?!

pffft. don’t worry, we settled it in the end.

it’s just the office is sooooo empty right now, but i like it. the boy is at home with the family in law because the nursery is shut. when i rang the house earlier and he answered, i was like ‘who is this? who?!’ and eventually the father in law got the phone and that’s when i realised i had been trying to speak to my own kid. so bad. but yeah it’s quiet here, and i don’t know whether to leave early like some of the others here or stick around. face it, it’s the only quiet i’m going to get for the next few days. after that it’s ASBO all the way, innit. damn, so harsh!

'...the intern's future in the industry is assured'

Outrage at Grazia magazine after an intern who was sent out regularly to buy skinny lattes for the beauty desk announced at the end of her stint on the mag that she had in fact been buying them all full-fat ones.

i haven’t heard anything this funny in ages, but those crazy elf videos where you stick a picture of someone’s face on a dancing elf come a sad second.
