Laughed out loud!

I love it when something makes you laugh out loud at work. When this happens to me, it tends to actually be more of a 'snort' or a 'shriek'. The picture of the duck playing a piano from my post yesterday achieved a snort of sorts just moments ago. and everyone looks at you as if to say,

"Well you're clearly not doing ANY work"

And you feel slightly smug that you have friends that are soo amazing, they can make you snort from afar...and even smugger that you are clearly flouting all of your work responsibilities.

Yesterday I booked tickets to go to the Isle of Wight festival (8th, 9th, 10th, June). The line up looks pretty good, but then I do love my Snow Patrol. I can practically sense Jonathan and Dan shuddering and breaking out into a cold sweat. BUT, there are rumours of the Stones putting in an appearance this year, so surely that must be worth the £125. Anyone from Brighton fancy coming and slumming it for a few days?

Awww, come on! I'm not hardcore enough to do Glastonbury, and last year washing with baby wipes in 30 degrees was pushing my limits...but it is fun to be earthy for a couple of days and not worry about wearing make-up (apart from the obligatory eye liner, lip gloss, bronzer and eyebrow pencil of course....lets not be too silly!).

Can I just say that today is the official 'Ange-Fest' day, yes, it's Anita's birthday. I'm sure you all know anyway, but of course, texts with messages of love, good wishes, and happy returns wouldn't go a miss. I've done mine so can sleep easy tonight. I also bought her some GREAT soft porn to read in-between working so I'm maxed out on brownie points. Happy 30th Anita!

I think working at even the dullest Temp job is more appealing than the Isle of Wight festival this year.

Looking at the line up my compatriots at said festival are likely to be 30-something Office workers from Swindon or Croydon who only occasionally dip their toe into music and want something they'll recognise from Radio 2 and who are looking forward to Guilfest later on in the Summer.

I'd go to heckle the 10 Years too late sub sub sub Oasis circa 1996 Kasabian and then get some sleep through the 'Snore Patrol' set and then get drunk and mope off and watch Ash until they played 'Kung-Fu' (for old times sake) and then go to the bar and loudly exclaim my displeasure with the whole thing and with only being served Carling until I was removed and put on the Ferry back to the mainland.

I think you've been a bit kind on the line-up, Dan, but that aside I quite agree.
