Oh great, she's a self harmer alright

I've been down in the dumps the past week. Largely feeling unmotivated, resigned and miserable, although being on Prozac has taken the edge off of the emotional strain; I just end up coming across as a combination of neutral, bored and tired.

This has been bothering me because a week ago I was very chirpy.

It's just occurred to me now that a piercing in my left ear and a tattoo on my arm have healed recently and are no longer stinging like hell, which is about when the Glums started.

Great. I've been high on pain endorphins and this is a comedown. I don't know which of the two facts is more depressing.

Columbus is going to be pissed off.

Planet Karen

My husband discovered this last sunday; I responded by confirming the artist was a resident of Bristol, I recognised the Clifton Suspension Bridge from one of the earlier strips. I love this strip, and considering we occasionally go to the same cinema and comic shop as her I hope we get to meet her someday.

But for now, the least I can do is share her work with you. Click on the link and enjoy.

Ouote Of The Week

"Dude! Bless my piss so I can piss on them!" has got to be the strangest suggestion for dealing with zombies I've ever heard.

RESISTANCE IS FUTILE. PREPARE TO BE ASSIMILATED.

Yeek, so that's what a PH test looks like...

The Other Quote Of The Week

Durin (to a librarian): "We need to speak to your boss, can you get him for us?"

The GM: "'Of course, right away'. He picks up a well-used tome and opens it up; inside, he writes a name and shuts the book. 'He's on his way', he says."

Chaszmyr: "*sigh*; he's got a Phone Book..."

Durin: "He's sent a Text Message!"

Technology is invasive.

And speaking of Harry Potter...

Weston-Super-Mare appears to have a Knight Bus.

Okay, it's lime green and only had two decks; but whilst you were walking down the street to go watch Transformers it suddenly pulls up, opens it's doors and the driver (in peaked cap, tie-dye shirt and cargo shorts) asks directions for the Train Station. Good thing you were going that way anyway; you hopped on and said "We'll show you."

The unexpected bit of wierdness to the day is known as The Festy Bus and is a service that regularly takes local festival-goers home or to the nearest station; their last port of call had been a music festival in Cheddar Gorge.

You have a friend who takes the car to the cinema, despite it only being a fifteen minute walk away; for once you didn't comment on this, thanks to the bus. Well, what can you say?

That was completely random. Which one of you called for a Knight Bus? I thought you'd left your wands at home.

Quote Of The Week

The scene; The London Eye, London, UK. And a fairly big queue which when you reach the end has a squad of security people searching bags with metal detectors. Thanks a lot, Osama bin Laden, that's very helpful of him to inflict that inconvenience on us all.

You have a bag, which has your luggage and was going to be left at the hotel, but the Eye was closer so it came with you. And when it's opened, one of the security personnel spots a certain bookshop bag which contains a certain book, and asks "Is that what I think that is?"

Yep, it's Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, you reply.

"Perhaps we can come to an arrangement," she responds humourously. I don't think she'd got her copy yet.
