Zoom!
A guy I used to work with at Blockbusters and whom I know still works at Blockbusters posted this on Facebook today:
“Well annoyed that loads of places will be closed just because of the Royal Wedding, which we are paying for with our taxes. Means I have to wait till Monday now to collect my jobseekers allowance.”
Here are my thought processes for the minutes after reading it:

Eating an Easter Egg
This is generally my process for eating Easter eggs:
Hold the egg and crack into it using your thumbs— the way the zombie does to the guy’s eyes in 28 Days Later.
Crack off bits around the hole, or something else which sounds less like an innuendo. Eat these bits. Eventually you will be left with either an egg cross section or multiple curved slabs of choc. Either way they will...

Making Hot Cross Buns with Alex
Mm hot cross buns. Slice a couple of them in half, pop them under the grill, and leave them for a minute.
…
Give them a quick check: nope not quite ready yet!
Might make some coffee while they—
WHERE’S THAT SMOKE COMING FROM!
HOW! How’d they burn so fast?! Gah! Hot!
Nooo now they’re too crispy to spread butter with any efficiency! And I’m getting black bits in...
I’ve been watching ‘Being Human’ recently. It’s pretty good. If you don’t know it, it’s about a vampire, a werewolf and a ghost who live together and struggle to fit in. After running out of episodes last night, I watched Blade. Not intentionally as a back-to-back vampire thing, but it was just the other disc I had out on Lovefilm.
Blade was good, but I...
Exciting event!
Saw a guy get mugged earlier in Canterbury. It was pretty crazy.
We’d just stepped out of the street with the Brewery Tavern on it when I saw two guys wrestling each other to the ground. One of them got up and ran straight past us followed by a very speedy community support officer. He got away and everyone looked very confused.
It was about 3 in the afternoon, and the street was packed...

I wrote a review of Richard Ayoade’s ‘Submarine’!
Easter break blog motivation!
Since I recently finished my last batch of coursework for my degree and have four weeks off for easter, I’ve had yet another ‘hey I’m going to do lots more blogging! A blog every day!’ brainwave. Why have I not learnt by now that it never works??
I couldn’t do a blog every day because I am doing nothing with my days. I’ve decided to stay in Canterbury for the...
Children are annoyingly crafty/craftily annoying
I was walking to campus earlier. My quickest route involves cutting through a small wooded area containing a playground. As I walked past the playground this time, two young girls emerged from it. They must’ve been about ten.
One girl said hello, and I said hello back. That’s just common politeness. Then she asked if I had a side-parting under my hat. I made an ‘urrr-’...
