Tomorrow i will be wearing knickers on my head and my hat on my feet (title has no link to story, it just sounded funny in my head)

So guys, this is it, the day that my diet has taken a massive tumble.

It is now ten to one in the morning, and just after having cheese and crackers (bad dreams tonight for me), I have now embarked on a sad journey of making noodles and just eating them out of the saucepan. After I have drained them first, obviously.

Just a few hours ago, I had crumpets and a cup of coffee. All this, on top of a sunday dinner that I feasted upon at one in the afternoon, and considering I have a lie in on sundays until at least midday, that does mean I am having beef dinner for breakfast.

So, things now have to change. I want to lose weight. Here's my plan.

First, compile a list of recipes that I am able to follow to create a healthy. balanced meal, but considering I nearly set the house on fire by making toast this week, the list is not going to be substantial.

Second, the money that I save from not buying chips on a saturday afternoon will be donated to a piggy bank that will be changing those pounds into a dvd from http://www.gofasterstripe.com/ (free plug there, and the piggybank doesn't have that special power, it just means that when I get to a tenner in the piggy, I'll go and buy a dvd from said website). They say laughter is a form of exercising so, by following this plan, I won't be eating so many chips which will lead to shedding a pound or two, I'll be laughing at good comedy, which makes me happy and exercising by laughing all in one go. Eat your heart out, dieticians.

And third, I will do one thing a week that will make me lose my breath. Maybe something quite similar to walking quarter of a mile and up a big hill into Ynyshir in the boiling sun.

These three things will definately help, along with now having a set mind on this task, I am going to grab this opportunity to shed some pounds with both hands. If you are around me on saturdays, don't ask me what I want from the chip shop, I'll just snaffle one of your chips instead. Only one, I promise.

01.35 (shit, I think I should go to bed now)

Nostalgia

I haven't done a blog since the last time I had a pizza. Which is not a good thing to remember my last blogging date by, food. You'd probably want something like 'yeah I haven't blogged since I surfed down that mountain and my trews fell around my ankles, and it was REALLY chilly'...or something...like that. I don't know where I am going with this sort of attemt to gain an insight into what people want with reading my blog, but if you do have any suggestions, write into the comment form then I will comment on your blog and be really really negative on your ass, anonymously, so you won't know who it is, well you will, cause I said I will do it if you slag off my little venture in the world of blog. So my topic for the day is nostalgia. And from this moment on I shall be talking about a certain type of bubbly.

Being able to drink, you might think I'm being sort of nostalgic about champ. No, no, no, what I am talking about, my dearest friend is the MATEY bubble bath! Oh yeah, the little sailor shaped bubble bath that still gives me the trip down memory lane, every time I sniff the stuff. This week, I have the lady one, next week, I'll probably still have the same one, cause I'm not going to have 30 baths with bubbles in it, OR AM I????? I really wanted Max Matey, but this time I had Molly Matey, who is a mermaid, who hangs out with a sailor matey, I like her, she has a nice hat. That's it, talking about matey bubbles has turned me into a child again.

In Ina minute I might be talking about the head in art attack. Now, you just started me off on a tangent, you little devil. Speaking of art attack (NOO!!! I can't believe I'm going down this route), I had a real funny moment last week, where I had seen a photo of The head from AA (not to be confunsed will alcoholics anonymous), put next to Alex Reid, the cross dressing oaf that goes out with Jordan, actually he's a cage fighter so I retract that comment, suggesting that they look alike. Time now for the HYPERLINK!!! To that particular photograph, which I think is frightening, in a way that people have actually taking time out of their lives to actually cut the two photographs and put them together. That's almost as bad as them saddos who take half hour out of their lives to write a blog about sailor bubbles and really good nost...oh wait...I actually know someone who does that.....

23.45

I might have scared the dog.....

Snapping the polystyrene pizza board in half made a loud bang, the dog, Snoopy, yelped, bombed it from the kitchen, through the dining room, through the living room and straight onto my father. And she's now reluctant to let me touch her. Oh dear. Saying that, it also scared my mother, who jumped, and told me off. Maybe I shouldn't have laughed in her face, but I definately shouldn't have shouted 'hahaha, you woss!'

17.37

So this is a blog you should take as a lesson to be learned. The lesson is to actually go to bed earlier, cause when I look back on this another night at gone 12 it will actually make me want to shift my arse up to my lovely bed and get some much needed shut eye. Its ten to 2 now and I'm still writing music to my itunes. Only the nocturnal 3 are on my msn, and are not normally people I want to talk to when I am feeling normal, let alone when I am tired and subsequently cranky. I'm writing a fair bit of music that is in the rock/metal genre at the moment. Stuff I use for the radio show, although next week is going to be a compilation of love songs, without them being mushy stuff you'd rather flush down the toilet like a disgusting turd than to play them on air. Sorry for that disgusting sort of comparison, but thats how strongly I feel about soppy music.
Back to the beginning point of going to bed late can be bad for you...you're tired in the morning, you skip brekkie and you're cranky, now get to bed before I tan your arse!

Train Days - Good Days

Yes, today has been pretty eventful and yes, it is something I can actually write about. Subject today - How to get to the train station quicker than usual.
Most obvious answer is to take a short cut. But it also helps if you are dancing down the street with The Cure pumping into your ears. Being along would, of course, be an advantage, but such little and insignificant things like that today didn't really matter. Ultimately this is a blog today to tell you to listen to 'Friday I'm in Love' by The Cure on your way to the train station. That could not have been a more apt song name, considering it is friday today. It's a song I have now purchased on my iTunes for my enjoyment. I could start reeling off tons of advantages of downloading music legally, but that would be slightly tedious. Hence I am not going to do it. I am writing this at 15.41 but by the time this reaches your eyes, it'll be slightly later after I've typed it onto the comp.

(Blog Completed 18.37)

This is NOT a blog.

Havent said anything for three days, this week has been pretty eventful, but some things are best not talked about on the blog and subsequently let loose over the internet for everyone to read. Just the way I roll. But I do want something to write about, let's just say this is a blog about not having a blog.

23:27

Don't worry its all in hand...as long as its the good one

I have a minging hand

Yes, I did this today, in college...in a make up course. Ok I fooled you for a few seconds, I have been practising burns as you can see. Its all good fun and shit scary for my Mam to see when i walk through the door. Here's what my hand looked like beforeHand (I know, I don't even think of these puns they just come to me):

That hand played a big part in making a very nice sandwich, which consisted of a large piece of steak in the middle of two pieces of garlic bread and consumed with a large dash of chili sauce. Who said cooking had to be dificult? I was so proud I even took a photo (this is a day for uploading some random shizzle)

As you can see I had a bit of leftover steak, so what I did after I finished my sandwich...I eat the steak. It was that simple.

01:40 AM

The joyous return

Yep after about a week of abstaining from blogging, so you're probably thinking 'get on with it, and this better be good'.

I've been living in a sort of 'don't know if I'm grown up or still a kid' phase, yeah interested in the election and going to uni, but today when I cut myself, and cleaned it off with a patterned kitchen towel, I imagined the tomatoes printed on the roll were magic and made any cut go away. They didn't, the fucker is still bleeding. I'm reading a difficult book, but covered my diary in Lego wrapping paper. And just giggled seeing Don from 'How not to live your life' having a turd on his head. But anyone would find that funny right?

Maybe adults do kid things, but make them sound more interestering and gives an impression they have amazing intellect. I am going to explain this, by being hypothetical. So, as an example an adult telling you they have an interest in observing hymenoptera, you would think 'wow, that's amazing' what they are actually telling you is that they like to watch ants.

I feel I have made my point.

This blog will now be updated not on a day-to-day basis, but on a when-i-can-be-arsed basis. If you get it up (*snigger*) on the website (no, I wasn't going for the double entendre, that's naughty) and its been updated, look a bit shocked, like this. (No, I am not going to tickle you on the tummy)

01.45 AM

dont die your hair pink, blog done

23.59 (thats why its short)

Tip number 1

Short and sweet this time - If there's any tip to remember throughout life is don't get conditioner in your eye.

22.30

No, too tired

Taking 24 kids to ASDA then going back home to change and go to P&D for a couple of hours is lots of fun. Definately pays off, even if I didn't get paid to help Mam out in school. I'm completely shattered, but its the nice tired, when you felt like you've done something instead of lazing about in the house all day. And of course, it makes it look like you've OH MY GOD!!! Right what's happened there is that I'm checking emails as I am writing this blog (I know I can multitask, I'm even watching shameless), I've had an email from St. David's Hall and Dara O'Briain is down to play there in October. Right I'm off to look for some tickets for that. Sorry for the abrupt ending to this entry, but you know, it is Dara O'Briain.

22.57

I started writing this at 1:30 pm....

Is it a bit naughty to only have been awake for an hour and a half? My problem is that I usually stay up until about two ish in the morning then I stay in bed all day, don't have breakfast and go straight to lunch. Right first off, that is 'terrible' apparently, second I put the dog away and go to bed and she barks all night, waking the folks up, and third, my body clock is a right mess.

13.39

Mid life crisis?

I don't know which ones worse - Playing Crash Bandicoot on the ps1 as if I'm have a sort of premature mid life crisis or not being able to stop playing Crash Bandicoot because I'm having too much fun. I am now on level 6 and seriously, as you get older you're not that afraid of hedgehogs or penguins that can kill you than when you were an 11 year old watching your cousin playing it, because you were too scared. I cracked this game last week and now I've started a new game.

Yep this is what I've been doing of late, finding old things I used to enjoy and going back to them and kinda find the joy in them again. Not much of an extensive list being an 18 year old, but today I had a ladybird on my hand, I played crash bandicoot and I went up to the fish farm to watch the fish.

If I had the time I would dig out my Sega and have a go on Sonic The Hedgehog and hopefully beat Doctor Robotnik in the Green Hill Zone, the first zone on the entire game I had not completed when I was little.

Is this my mid life crisis, is it not a problem until I buy a car when I don't even drive, just because it has the capability to be turned into an exact replica of the batmobile if I changed it about a bit?

Late night bloggery (or is that ver earlt morning bloggery?)

Yeah I knew it was a good idea to write a blog yesterday morning, about the bird cause I was out when I usually write it. I have been in about an hour and I went out for a drink with the girls. Like I said I am in, but perfectly sober, if by chance, I wasn't, it would be more of a calling for bed...and not blogging and fbking (facebooking) a guy I met a few hours ago. Its almost like I'm a deep thinker. Hmmm

00.42 AM

'Oh have you not heard? It was my understanding that everyone had heard?'
Yep if you don't really know what I mean by this, I'll think no differently of you. It wasn't until yesterday that I remembered that the bird is the word. Brought back to people's mind with youtube clips of Family Guy and of course the series itself. Available on the internet and apparently the song is available on iTunes (shouldn't really say apparently if I've downloaded it for a laugh). And for the people who knew what I was on about this link is for you. I have a major urge now to actually go into the studio for the next sort of radio show and play that song as my headline track. (Next Show - 5th May 4 till 7 pm). Don't think I'm brave enough though, maybe at least in the first hour I'll play it but not for the first track surely? You'll have to tune in to www.rhonddaradio.com and find out!

A-well-a everybody's heard about the bird
B-b-b-bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, the bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, well the bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, well the bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, well the bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a don't you know about the bird?
Well, everybody knows that the bird is the word!
A-well-a bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a...

This blog was posted at 12.24 pm. Don't forget, the bird is the word!

The Anti Bitch of Theatre

I have been blessed with a new nickname, and there has been chat of having it on a t shirt. Apparently, in the aspect of theatre, I haven't got a bad word to say about anyone or anything. But then again, I just have a lot of bad words about other things, this entry is going to be positive anyway, random to say the least. But if it wasn't random, then my blog isn't really doing it's job properly, and I am no way responsible, at all, apart from the stuff I write into it. Actually ok, I am.

I found I am way too observant again, this sort of week where I have been watching funny vid's on you tube, I notice that the protagonist has wore his suit and looked very formal as a sort of reporter, but as he was sitting on the floor, he had trainers on. See? Observational. And that looking at my friend's blog which is very funny, I noticed that if you look at the way his blog name is set out that if you read it downwards :-

Mind
Optimising
Ointment

It spells Moo. Total co-incidental, but funny all the same. Again, too observational, but it makes good blogging material. And I have also came up with a brand new theory that men can multitask but they just don't let it on to women. In no way would they want to iron and watch the footie the same time. Or hoover while on the phone to the babysitter. I have now made my point now for the random bit.

I'd spoken to a good friend of mine and until this point I hadn't known that she once covered 3 brussel sprouts in liquid latex. In context, which I am about to delve into to tell you, this'll make sense. It was to find different textures with various items that can be immersed into latex, another example was grit. See I do listen, just every now and again mentally switch off and stare blankly ahead, and then try to make a joke about the subject and prove that I have completely lost focus. I can even be observational on the things that I do, intentional or not, which this was unintentional. I promise. So yeah that my random bit of waffle for today. Tomorrow I will be looking for brush cleaner and someone to bruise. I mean make up, I may be pedantic and observational all in one but never violent. Didn't even poke anyone in the eye with make up tonight. =)

(23.46, blogs are always nicer when you're not far off going to sleep/watching tv till 2, still haven't decided yet)

Yeah this blogging everyday has got to be doing my follower's head in, please not that I said follower's and not followers, I know my random waffle is making it's way round on the internet, but its not an excuse to be up my own arse about it. Sounds a little repetitive but I had another make up job tonight, as difficult as the first one. It isn't the application of the make up, but the performers that blink and smudge EVERYTHING that you apply to them. There were ones trying to be all 'Where do I look other than down your top as you lean forwards, in an ever so subtle way hoping you wouldn't notice', but then you had the ones that don't do what you tell them and moan when you've poked them in the eye, having moved so much when I tell them to stay still. Argh.

With only quarter of an hour before this goes out for my one a day, I'll just press publish and not link anything.

23.51.

with only three quarters of an hour left of today and not long being in, I best write my blog. Or at least tell you about my day

- woke up at 10.30

- put washing on the line and left the house at twelve to go to tair Rhondda Radio, still looking nice aswell

- left at quarter past 4, to go home, and REMEMBERED I HAD A MAKE UP JOB!!!

- left the house at quarter to five to make up the performers at the new production of Guys and Dolls, ok, it was a school production but it still rocked!

- got home at 10 and watched a bit of decent tv, read one of the blogs I enjoy reading and remember to write my own

Good night (the time is 23.22, you know why I'm doing this)

STOOOOOOOOOOOOP!!!!!! Na keep going, keep going

Well yes, after twice trying to sit down and trying to write this, I am now in the comfort of my own home and not watching various people fall off ladders and swear at walls. I do quite like today, it has been nice. Been a bit of a struggle to write this cause my internets being a bum, so I've copied/pasted this from my word into blogspot which (by good fortune) I refreshed it enough to make it shift it's arse. So yes, today has been nice, spent most of it being 'out', I was popping out, then ended up being out, but not 'out out' (Micky Flanagan, maybe 2008), being in tair new RADIO STATION!!! Yes we have moved out of the little box that we had into a massive new studio above Hair by Beverly. 6 rooms on one floor and a little reception in Red Forest before going into the studio. (If that makes sense) Am gonna try and get some good photos up on here, it'll be nice for you to put a face to the name, unless of course you already know me.

Well after an hour and a half walking back from work, I think I'm allowed to be a little tired don't you think? So as its only 11pm now, I'll stay up until my usual bedtime of 1 (yeah, 1, I live a very rock and roll life (completely joking)).

See ya folks later.

Backwards day for Danni

It's now ten to twelve and I want to finish this blog and post it before twelve, keeping my blog a day rule alive. Well I spent today wearing the most gorgeous blue check shirt/dress, with leggings, pumps, and a massive smile. Just this second before I signed into blogger, I found the tag for my dress...still attached to my dress.

Oops. I do want to add a link to this blog, cause I try to do that aswell, this video is what my friends do from time to time to fill their time. Have a look, it is good.

23.59, blog finished. Yay ^_^

One jammy bugger.

Well yes, today I am. I spent a lovely day in sunny sunny Cardiff. Other than the perfect shop, I also got my Limited Edition Exclusive EP by White Lies. Which was the last one in the store (Spillers Records). Before that I had considered to catch the train half an hour later from my local train station. Had I done that, I would have missed the EP and not only throw a tantrum I would have done this (ok, maybe I wouldn't but looking at the comment for this video gave me a massive laugh at one bloke saying 'I'd have cried if I looked like the Dali Lama', so I had to find a way to work it into my blog)

I am less jammy in that my MSN is still failing to work properly, but it's working to my favour as I make less time to stare at a screen and turn into a post-modernistic zombie. Which would not be good. I would look like one of these. Which probably wouldn't be very good viewing if there was to be a webcam installed at the Radio Station, just a massive call for more foundation to be applied. Also there are no shows for about a weeks as we are moving from our usual station to a new place, still on the same street. But we will be back very shortly and I will fill you in when we are back on (That's my plug done, now for a bit more chat.).

This blog was written at 11.00pm GMT but I'm having a bit of stick from the timestamps so it may look like I am writing this at 4 in the morning or whatever.

Yesterday's blog was a little short, and not very sweet. Talking about sweets, I still haven't eaten these pear drops, they're too sickly.

Its only a short one

I hate pear drops. Told you so.

Boo yah!

Good blogging music here cause no matter how much I want to have another moan, this kinda stops me from doing it.

Today has kinda been alright, well actually its been quite good.

a) New pay, going shopping tomorrow (White Lies EP alright! Hopefully getting that EP means I will get a new feature the next time I get on the Radio)

b) More food has miraculously found its way into the freezer. I might treat myself and make a curry.

c) It's boiling! It's like MSN knew what the weather was like and stopped working to help me stock up on Vitamin D. Part of the new campaign Make Ricketts History, sponsered by Windows Live Messenger.

d) New work! I've been given a week's work to make people look like umpa lumpahs for them to act on the stage. Paid. Very happy days.

untitled (no I do not want a capital, back off spell check)

Going back to an old post saying that I do not have food in the house, I have dug further into my freezer almost to the point that I fell in and found something spectacular, another tub of ice cream. Oh, and a box of 2 pizza’s, that were disgusting.
The pizza’s would have been lovely but I added a sauce (yeah, found that in the pantry, along with a bit of rice) to kinda cover the burnt bits. BBQ sauce over burnt cheese and tomato is like filling a crack in the wall with a mixture , it just doesn’t do the job. Although, that will be a clip on youtube we’d all like to see.
Go on, lets have a bit of a subject change cause as I am writing this I am watching popular satirical tv show Have I Got News For You, which probably has a bit of a viewers drop due to the Debate on the other side (the other side being ITV) which isn’t much of a competition as to which one I’d watch. Gordon Brown or Robert Webb? Ooh decisions decisions. Although I get slightly miffed when I watch Ian Hislop (Fuck off spell check, I spelt it right) laughs at his own jokes, its sort of balanced itself out with having the amazing Marcus Brigstocke (spell check you are doing my nut in) and its given me motive to write another blog. If that hadn’t been on I could be talking about how breadsticks don’t have a good shelf life because they don’t stay dry.

There are mishaps to be had

You create a big deal of mischief when you go to bed at two in the morning, only to be woken up at quarter to six by two dogs scratching the door and whinging. First of all, if you have a shower the first thing after breakfast, be careful that you do not use shampoo as a substitute for shower gel, but saying that, it was raspberry and red apple so I've been smelling good. Then, do not lie down on that sofa cause you will fall asleep until 12 and then want to blog about it. Cause thats not interesting bloggery, and dogs will not be afraid to try and eat your head. And finally, when you look out of your window and see a massive mountain, don't instantly think 'I need to climb that today'. Apparently when you get to the top of the penpych mountain, you can see really far out, if you fall over you get to see some dirt.

A Note For The Blog

Right I intend to update this blog with something every day, as some sort of silly blogging that you stumble on when you have nothing to do and i mean stumble as to come across and not the pathetic page finder that recommend sites to you (yeah Stumble with the ever-so-patronising-thumbs-up-icon-to-click-on-if-you-like-something I'm talking to you here, I may like the acrecomedy video about the War In Iraq found if you click on this, but that does not mean I want to see soldiers in action getting shot), rant over.
I find myself to be caught in the sticky web of the blogging world, with other people thinking they need to tell the world what they might watch when they go to picture next. Fine, go to the cinema, but dont make me jealous of your nachos with extra cheese and triple mega super sized coke that will give you enough sugar to keep you wired until 4 in the morning, capiche? And don't even get me started on popcorn. I haven't got the ranting me to behave yet.
Still if you heard this from Kate Moss/Victoria B'ham, it'd be front page of a mag. Funny little world.

Facts about Blogging

I know its a cheap comparison but writing a blog is like ripping a page of your diary out and posting that on the internet. So I am going to consult my diary today to see what I'll be talking about in my blog.

1) Write Cd's, well am not gonna talk about that cause it's pretty self explanatory, if you cannot make cd's on a simple software like itunes, its pretty unlikely you'll be going onto the internet to find blogs. Suppose if I really want to I could talk about what music, its mainly of the alternative variety although I am partial to a bit of Final Fantasy OST's of late, like Masaharu Iwata and Nobuo Uematsu. And of course I am writing cd's for the next part of today's plan.

2) Radio Show, I present a afternoon show in my local radio station Rhondda Radio (can be found at www.rhonddaradio.com, 4-7 GMT), again playing alternative music and adding some chit chat about the musicians/producers and the like is what I find myself doing every week.

3) Find the willpower to stop blogging and go and have some breakfast. This wasn't in my diary, but sounded like a nice farewell for this post.

Oh No What Have I Done

Somewhat after 5 hours of being on the internet today reading other blogs that have taken to my fancy, I thought 'yeah I should give this a go'. Its now twenty past 1 as I am typing this and I can tell you now, it's more interesting than watching my dog growling at himself because he's looking at his reflection. I should really go to bed, but as this is going to be my first blog, I may aswell make it an interesting one but being a sort of average lazy student type person, whatever laughs become apparent of this, take it as a bonus.
So as the average student I am, I am now going to have a rant about the thing that keeps me going, food.
If I were to make a banquet of all the things I have in the kitchen, the course will be as follows:-

1 Block of cheese
3 tubs of ice cream
1 bag of frozen peas
1 loaf of granery bread, still to be defrosted
1 packet of soup

I know student food are stereotypes of being all 'beans on toast', but that sounds more appetizing than cheese on toast with a pea and ice cream dressing.
