[Juno MacGuff]

I am in an oversized T-Shirt lying in bed thinking about sleeping and typing this message.

[ChasingButterfly]

I have the worst hangover of my entire life. Euuuuuuugh.

[Tacitus]

Didn't realise that the City of Culture celebrations were still going on. ;)

Aaanyway, a friend of mine has just got back from holiday and brought me back a selection of rude fridge magnets. These will sit well in my collection of ... zero fridge magnets.

I thought she knew me? :D

[Fiscal]

Ugh, 6:11 in the morning, about to go work out - then headed to the lake for a BBQ with my co workers.

[ChasingButterfly]

Didn't realise that the City of Culture celebrations were still going on. ;)

I think someone's jealous that Derryans still have an excuse to party right up until 2013! Not that we needed much of one in the first place! :D

[Tacitus]

Nah, not at all. This little place has far too many begrudgers and I am from The West, too. ;)

Also, a load of new art galleries and theatres can only be a good thing but it's just a shame that Gregory will always be on hand to provide an alternative viewpoint when people start enjoying themselves...

[Caitlyn]

Just still kinda bummed out... one of my doggies died yesterday. She was old, and I knew it wasn't going to be long... but it's still not easy saying goodbye.... :(

[Tacitus]

Aww, that's not nice. I've buried three dogs over the years. Two lived to ripe old ages and one was only three. :(

[honeykid]

Trying not to go mad or kill anyone.

[Miss Vicky]

^Any particular reason?

[honeykid]

Small people running around and making far too much noise. That, and I've just spent an hour with my nan. I love her, but she has alzheimer's and she drives me mental. Between the three of them, I can feel my brain slowly running down the back of my neck. :dizzy:

[Juno MacGuff]

It is such a beautiful day, I am thinking of taking a 2 mile run.

[Miss Vicky]

I know the feeling, hk. I don't know if my grandma has actually been diagnosed with alzheimer's but spending time with her is a severe test of my patience. At least, though, if I do slip up and lose it, she forgets what I said two minutes later anyway.

[n3wt]

Enjoying the use of my brother in laws laptop charger for today :yup:

Absolutely. I'm exactly the same.

[Caitlyn]

Aww, that's not nice. I've buried three dogs over the years. Two lived to ripe old ages and one was only three. :(

I've buried 3 doggies and 2 kitties in the last 5 years... but only 2 of them was from old age... I say every time I'm not going to get anymore, but then run into one that needs a home... and I can't stand it when they give me "that look" ... they know a sucker when they see one...

[7thson]

Trying to figure out how to get rid of my sunglasses tan line, I look like I have a permanent Zorro mask on. :cool:

Sorry to hear that Cait' we went from 3 dogs to none last year because they were all older. Just got the new one recently, and it is "suckers" like you that give them a good home no matter how long they live. :)

[Miss Vicky]

Sorry to hear this, Cait. I know the feeling. I can't even recall how many pets I've lost in the last few years, including a cat that I'd had since early childhood.

But I'm a sucker, too. Only it's not so much the animals that know this, it's the people in my life.

[n3wt]

Im enjoying a nice cup of hot chocolate while there is trash on tv.

[planet news]

Clean it off then.

Badumbump!

[n3wt]

^:laugh:

[honeykid]

Watching That Mitchell And Webb Look and hoping that it's more like series 1 than series 2.

Listening to a podcast and diving back into a partially-done writing project.

Im loving the new series :yup:

At the moment im still horrified that Jedward was just on my tv, I dont mind watching Big Brother but now they added those arseholes on there I actually feel physically sick :sick:

[Juno MacGuff]

[honeykid]

Watching Rhod Gilbert doing some stand up.

[Juno MacGuff]

listening to some tunes in my bedroom.

[Caitlyn]

Hoping this coming week turns out to be better than the last one... if not, I'm gonna start wondering if someone has put a hex on me... :rolleyes:

[Juno MacGuff]

Been to the Farm Fair and watched the little piggies race. It is a very lovely day outside so I will probably go in the pool at some point.

[ChasingButterfly]

I just found the soundtrack of High Fidelity-A Musical on spotify; I can't stop laughing, it's so odd!

[Juno MacGuff]

Sitting in the AC in my Bikini and a towel which is wet and am freezing.

[Caitlyn]

I have no sympathy... :p My air conditioner actually sounds like it is groaning... with little pauses to catch it's breath once in a while...

The AC is nice, but not in a wet bathing suit.

[honeykid]

Watching Amish: The World's Squarest Teenagers. Saw last weeks and liked it, so I'm hoping this one's good, too.

[Caitlyn]

The AC is nice, but not in a wet bathing suit.

I might try a wet bathing suit if it doesn't cool off here soon... the heat index is around 106... I jumped in the pool... still in my uniform when I got off work a couple of days ago... :D

[n3wt]

Just chilling before bed

[n3wt]

Going to go to bed and listen to my iPod untill I nod off, Night all.

[planet news]

I thought there'd be a triple post from n3wt with him saying: "TOTALLY ASLEEP NAO YALL. DREAMZ RAWK LOLZ."

[Juno MacGuff]

Going to watch a little T.V. and then curl up and go nighty night.

[honeykid]

Thinking about going to bed, but I'm not tired.

[planet news]

I'm going to watch a film before bed that I think maybe I saw you, honeykid put on the Baker's Dozen thread. It's called Uzumaki and it looks interesting.

[eMilee]

realizing at 3:11 a.m today (the second of august) she came into my life and now i cannot imagine her not in it!!! my jules is offically a month old today :D

[the_fateful_amy]

Up late, can't sleep, got the Ipod in my ears and chillin' on the comp :)

[mack]

irritated because when I unplugged my modem to reset the IP address, it would not come back on when "re" plugged. i do this ALL the time, and suddenly it doesnt work anymore? :confused: must've fried it accidentally. :( now I'm relegated to piggybacking a neighbors signal, and that CANT be good........:nope:

[n3wt]

Preparing myself for a nice soothing shower.

[ChasingButterfly]

I just heard a bomb go off!

The house sort of shook a little but my parents said that it sounds closer than it is! Won't find out the craic until tomorrow morning though!

[Tacitus]

No injuries fortunately - Link (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-10848505)

I honestly think it'll take a generation to get rid of stuff like this completely, maybe longer, provided we've still got a reasonably stable system of government. If the deluded dinosaurs manage to get lucky enough to pull off another Omagh, though, I dunno what would happen.

As a people I think we're more mature but all it takes is one guy and a lot of wounds are re-opened...

Chasingbutterfly - We had our house badly damaged by a Provo mortar bomb about 20 years ago, and the army base they were aiming for was over a mile away. I've still got a foot long bit of shrapnel somewhere. Found it sticking in the lawn like a javelin.

The worst thing was meeting the guys you knew did it on the street. They'd still smile and say hello but we were just collateral damage to them.

[n3wt]

I hate seeing things like this in the news it really is horrible. Im glad there is no one injured or even dead.

:( This really makes me sick.

These people were and continue to commit violent deeds using their republican/loyalist cause as an excuse to kill and I really don't think they can even bare to think that no one wants them anymore. It's safe to say though, that these people are running around with the bare minimum of brain cells.

Hopefully these dinsosuars will die out pretty soon though; their growing to become more of an inconvience than anything else these days. And now people are going on that they're going to try and take the City of Culture title away from us. I doubt they would but ragin' if it did happen :(

I just want to get a banner and hang it across the walls and simply have it read;

"THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS."

[The Next Big Thing]

100% couldn't agree more with what Tacitus and Chasing Butterfly have said.
----
On the other hand, I doubt the people that are behind these attacks are actually motivated by revenge or any sort of hangover from the troubles even if they themselves claim this. The tragedy is that as-long as the press are claiming this, like you guys said, certain wounds can be reopened. Even I notice it with my parents who lost family during the troubles. They live and work in a mixed community, there not bitter, I was never raised to give a **** about such concepts, but when things like this happens certain people retract slightly, It'l take a generation before nobody feels directly involved.

The little guy below has been in about every paper in the Uk for a 5 day rotation as a result of the Ardoyne riots around the mid July period (12th). These guys look no older than young 20s and people are trying pin there acts on sectarianism and concepts and history these little thugs have NO understanding of.

Its all rubbish, there just little ***** who weren't raised properly. Where are the parents at?

http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01087/SNF1722B-682_1087268a.jpg

If we got united Ireland tomorrow, do you think that little guys front and center would put down his rock and go get a full time job? Of course he wouldn't, hel just find something else to riot over. Its like the Joker from the Dark Knight, we pin the motivation based on the visible variables, the truth is, certain individuals in the world just like violence, conflict and destruction.

Both sides are as bad as each other.

[ChasingButterfly]

I totally agree. man!

I remember years ago, my wee cousin was being shown Bloody Sunday footage and videos of the army and the Republicans fighting by his, frankly idiotic, dad and now he's only 15 and he has these great ideas about republicanism and hating the police. The other day he was just lifted by the PSNI for throwing stones at them. He's a really good kid but it was his dad instigating a hate of the loyalists and police is going to completly destroy his character. His dad wasn't even born around the time of Bloody Sunday or the Battle of the Bogside.

That's why I think if we try and come to a point where we have a generation of people who don't try and force any of this sectarian nonsense on children, we'll finally be out of the Troubles once and for all. I know it's hard but everyone has to move on.

I always find that some people as well, who don't live in mixed areas have a very blurred perception of the otherside. I live on one of those places that's lodged between the Republicans and the Loyalists and I don't feel that there's any real difference between us but my cousins from republican areas are terrified of even just Prodestants.

When my wee cousin, who was shown all the videos and stuff was introduced to my boyfriend he thought he was a nice guy but when he found out later that he was a Prodestant, he was confused that he was so nice and not a vicious monster out to get him! He really couldn't get over it! I know he's young but I think a lot of parents are to blame for providing a lot of misguided informatation and not explaining to their children that there's no need to fight anymore.

100% agreed once again.

Its funny that you mentioned about sides. I too was raised in a area that is completely lodged between the two sides and people just mingle (I'm actually quite grateful for that), its like somewhere along the line people realise, oh yeah, he's a human being just trying to live his life and achieve happiness and so am I.

Its the cordoned off areas that can cause trouble and brew bias opinions and essentially cause hatred. Nearly 6 years ago now when I was doing a HND, I had to go to NWRC in derry (ironically you can see the entrance to the college in the article Tacitus posted rite beside that charcoled mess of car) and the opinions in such a refined catholic environment were quit extreme and like you mentioned, many of these people admitted to not know a single protestant and or being surprised with the mentality of the few they did know.

[planet news]

^ Interesting convo yunz guys. I've little to add as I'm pretty ignorant about the conflict.

All I can say is that religion/politics are the biggest and most viral memes there are, especially in a family.

[Tacitus]

Yeah, the young guys throwing rocks at police are the same sort of chav/spide that can be seen in Manchester, Glasgow etc on a daily basis but the difference in them is that the other yobs don't have shadowy older men in the background winding them up with romantic tales of 'the struggle'.

These guys need to die out, as well as the politicians who's very jobs depend on keeping the division in the community. Unionist and Nationalist MPs/MLAs alike...

The Republic doesn't really want this economic black hole and Britain is only keeping us on due to a sense of entitlement.

We're like Alex Higgins - Charismatic and flawed with no one really wanting to be around us when the going gets tough. ;)

[Caitlyn]

Guess if I ever move to Ireland, I need to find another profession...

I'm glad no one was hurt...

[Tacitus]

Having seen yet another new Assistant Chief Constable (how many are there? 20?) on the news I'd give you 5 years before you're running the whole force over here, Caity. :D

Im just waiting for these "painkillers" to start working :facepalm:

[Tacitus]

I doubt if many can blame us poor, vagrant Northerners for being on edge these past few days, what with bombs, nearly bombs etc.

Yesterday evening the police closed off my street and started re-routing traffic. The only times this has happened in my 5+ years in Tatty Towers has been when a suspect device or a body has been found. I gave it an hour's fretting before asking one of the cops what the problem was.

Band parade. :rolleyes:

[n3wt]

Ive just had a phonecall from the dr regarding my blood work, my Uric Acid levels are high again so this will be the reason why im in so much damn pain, so the dr has upped my gout medication so hopefully in the next week or so I will feel some relief :yup:

Getting mad at my cat for being a pig.

[honeykid]

Well, it has to be true to itself. Of course, it does appear to be schizophrenic... Well, either that you're not sure whether you own a cat or a pig and, if that's the case, I think you may've spent too long in contact with those chemicals or the oil itself. Either way, I think you should be able to tell by the weight of its litter tray. :D

Sun's out after raining pretty much all day, the first real rainy day we've had for weeks. Hope it's nicer next weekend cos we have a hot air ballooon festival here every year and it's quite a sight seeing all those balloons floating over your house, but the weather has to be just right.

[Caitlyn]

Hey I should do that when my mom tells me to clean my room.:D

I hate cleaning... but I also hate messes... so eventually I'll glance around and then force myself to take care of it all... today it's a little worse than normal because my niece has been here off and on for the last few days... and she's like a mini tornado... :p

Where'd you get all these awesome emoticons?

[Tacitus]

Nebbs is so mighty that she just blinks and, poof!, they appear. :D

Aaaanyway. I've been listing a load of stuff on eBay. This place needs de-cluttered badly. ;)

[Juno MacGuff]

Listening to that little 10 year old Jackie Evancho from Americas Go Talent Sing.

[Cries&Whispers]

Is it possible to make a living buying and selling things on eBay? I imagine that would be a pretty ebb and flow job, but it would be pretty badass.

Anyway, I'm bout to hop in the shower then go out.

[Tacitus]

Is it possible to make a living buying and selling things on eBay?

Not for me, heh. Then again, I've got a friend who sells her homemade jewellery there...

She's got a steady job so it's just a hobby really but it keeps her in drinking money. ;)

[honeykid]

That may not sound a lot, C&W, but as she's probably Irish, that's actually a few hundred quid a day. ;)

It's too damn muggy here, so I've got a fan on and watching Jack Dee live for about the 20th time.

[n3wt]

I havent long come in from my bro-in-laws and im real tired its been a long day sorting my car out, its road worthy and all it needs is tax now which im going to buy tomorrow woohoo!!!!! My legs and feet are agony at the moment hoping they will be better in the morning *fingers crossed*

[honeykid]

Good luck with it, N3wt. :up: I hope it all gets sorted quickly.

[n3wt]

Cheers HK mate ;)

[nebbit]

I am the only person on line :scream:

[earlsmoviepicks]

Having coffee in the basement listening to the rumble of thunder above me (actually 3 boys jumping around)

[Edenvegan]

Being three posts away from 1000.

[The Prestige]

Sitting next to a maniac. This has been an interesting week.

[n3wt]

Replaying Lost Planet as for some damn reason it didnt save yesterday :facepalm: but the achievments are still there :rolls:

[Miss Vicky]

Getting ready to go to work for the next 7 hours, even though I've already done 40 hours this week.

[n3wt]

My wife is just finishing the Birthday card we have made for my daughter that we are sending into CBeebies so hopefully it will be shown on tv on her birthday. I will upload a picture of it later in the picture thread :yup:

[Rhoten]

Stalling on doing laundry, cos everybody knows if you put if off long enough the house gnomes come out and do it for you.

[n3wt]

Just posted the picture in the picture thread :D

[karibou]

Wondering if hubby will be able to fix both the truck (which died last night) and my TV.

Going to check out n3wt's uploaded picture. ;)

[Juno MacGuff]

Drinking tons of water with lemon because I woke up not feeling so well.

[honeykid]

Watching Pulp Fiction for the first time in forever. Thinking about getting something to eat.

[planet news]

I haven't done this in "a while". :rolleyes:

http://i756.photobucket.com/albums/xx205/planetnews/loser.png

[Cries&Whispers]

Wow. Even the Shoutbox. That's dedication.

[planet news]

I always get the shoutbox, C&W. It's meaningless otherwise.

[Miss Vicky]

It's meaningless regardless.

[planet news]

Of course. But it's less meaningless the other way.

-1 rep for stating the obvious.

[Tacitus]

Negative rep for stating the obvious?

Aaaanyway. Got a new router yesterday after the old one heard me saying "wireless N" and gave me the metaphorical finger, expiring soon after. Netgear have always done well by me in the past so I plumped for one of them.

Performance-wise it's squeezing an extra chunk of speed out of the 20MB line compared to the old one but, boy, does it get hot. You could fry yer auntie on it.
