I cant decide between: a)going to the library to watch DVD's. b)lying on the grass and making daisy chains. c)printing photographs.

What would you do?

― rainy, Wednesday, 19 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I secretly dont really wanna print photos.

― rainy, Wednesday, 19 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I say b. You can still do a and c even if the weather is off. ;-)

'kay then!

― rainy, Wednesday, 19 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I just went outside and the groundskeeper has mowed down all the daisies...what now?

― rainy, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Print Photographs.

Anthony may have the way in this one.

This afternoon I have to get in a smelly van and drive to Hull with Chris2T, play a gig when we've not rehearsed in a month, and watch two of my favourite bands blow us off the stage. Hrrmmmm, I think I might be spending the afternoon making daisy chains and printing photographs instead.

In 43 minutes, when the afternoon begins, I'll probably be still tidying my room, or be dead from dust inhalation. Eew.

I shall be worriedly contemplating my job, after being told my current position is being allocated to someone else on MONDAY.

I have a weeks handover, in which they will be coming to me with another job offer, as far as I have gathered. What this job will be, who knows.

Oh, just don't make me sit in that rubbidge Addecco office and be tormented by the annoying perky job-mares please....

This could be a bonus as my other plan for the afternoon is gritting my teeth at co-worker in next office. ARGRHHHHHHH I HATE YOU SMUG MARE.

― Sarah, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'll be doing the same as I did this morning... filing court documents and grinding my teeth at the fact that there will be a tube strike on the same day as LondonIndieUSA. Thanks, Tube Unions...

But later I shall eat pizza and tidy my flat and watch Bubblegum Crisis on DVD. Yay.

― Paul Strange, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Shake out moist, hot white coconuts from your veiny love tree. Well...I would.

― Kodanshi, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

this evening (for this afternoon i shall be at work, chiz chiz) i am going to bake BANANA CAKE. i would recommend anyone who has some time on their hands to bake a cake.

― katie, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

eugh - the thought of hot white coconuts from the veiny love tree has, alas, somewhat put me off the idea...

― katie, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

This afternoon I will be listening to the entire Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy Radio Programme and coughing.

― Richard Tunnicliffe, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"what shall I do this afternoon?"

Sit around and listen to Queeeen.

― DavidM, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I would go to a museum or something like that. But, I'm far too lazy at the moment.

― jel, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

After work going home and watching 'Shadow of the Vampire' with my guy then going to bed. He has an out of town show this weekend so we need the rest tonight.

― Samantha, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm going to sit around and read until I shout in horror, "Oh no, it's eleven at night and I haven't touched my Latin, history, laundry, or instruments today!" I think I'll download some music first, though.

― Lyra, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I think you should spend your afternoon throwing bricks at Kodanshi for that veiny love tree post. Or lie outside and idly rip up bits of grass, it's more punkrock than daisy chains.

I'm hoping to spend next afternoon listening to my new records which I hope will arrive tomorrow, um, er, I mean finishing Gareth's tapes (insert five billion apologies here). Instead I will probably sleep through my records arriving (if they even do), fail to get out of bed until after the sorting office shuts, and waste time on the internet (at peak rate => I am officially insane and have not enough willpower to wait until 6pm to check my email even though I never get anything interesting anyway) while not doing any of the work I should be doing. Woohoo.

― Rebecca, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Oh no, it's eleven at night, and I haven't touched my history today!" :)

― Maria, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

what about your laundry though?

― rainy, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i haven't touched either.

then again, i don't have history homework.

then again, i DO have files which need to be reviewed.

and dirty clothes all over my bedroom.

and i (and it) smell(s).

and i didn't even read.

someone needs to old yeller me.

― jess, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

If you have clean panties, everything else will surely take care of itself. DO YOUR LAUNDRY!

― rainy, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i don't have any clean panties.

wait.

i don't have ANY panties.

― jess, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Wash someone elses panties then. That girl with the chinese breath. You could wash hers.

― rainy, Thursday, 20 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i think it's a little soon to be washing her panties. gimme til the end of the weekend.

― jess, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I have just finished my induction into the commentariat (for a forthcoming Radio 2 program yay) and now have nothing at all to do cos I took the day off and I'm stuck in Pete's office so expect plenty of nonsense from me for the rest of the afternoon.

― Tom, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

no panties to rinse out in the sink, ewing?

― jess, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Cor. That's great. Which program, Tom?

― Richard Tunnicliffe, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Details? The Beard must be sucking away your ability to be specific.

― Nicole, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Specific details (like broadcast times etc.) I'll give you when I get them. It's me playing devil's advocate pop pundit on a Radio 2 programme about David Bowie. Pete and I wrote the stuff together and then I did the voice, so you can hear me in full sarky nasal flow on the interweb.

(Incidentally Nicole it's great to have you back and contributing.)

― Tom, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

RickyT: we don't know what it's actually called! It's a six- part 'reputations' style series. Pete thinks it should be called 'Poputations' but I think it should be called 'Classic Or Dud', heh.

― Tom, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Wow.

― Richard Tunnicliffe, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yeah, if it wasn't for that darn auditor you might have got to hear my mellifluous tones too. Damn accountants...

― Pete, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Well we're only doing one of the six programmes - it's Andrew Collins for the defense of DB and me for the prosecution. Tanya sold the rights to some of her jokes for a bottle of Gordon's so that was helpful too.

― Tom, Friday, 21 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

How did you get involved with that, Tom?

― DG, Saturday, 22 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Headhunted by R2 researcher - oh yes!

― Nick, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The economy is certainly competitive.

― jel, Monday, 24 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

three years pass...

― Sunny, Thursday, 30 June 2005 22:40 (twenty years ago)

Top of the evening to you.
