Pursuit of Glooooory...
Dec. 30th, 2003 04:51 pmGreetings from the Nottingham sales...
Well in a roundabout way anyhow. Kinda' went and came back, but there was shopping in between and I got an AOA Wolvie figure I didn't already have, though I got no idea where I'll put him. Also picked up a cooool long-sleeve top from Burton's that has sorta' like black zebra-stripes down one side. It's the kind you can wear under a t-shirt if it's super-cold for that Tim Burton-esque B&W look.
Also got the X2 X-Jet that JR wanted to find for me, and Forbidden Planet finally had in the new X2 Claw-strike Wolverine. The one with the break-away gantry thing. They didn't have the other one yet and it was, as usual, the same price in pounds as I paid in $$s. So that's all to the good.
I think I've done something to myself though, several sitting positions are acutely painful and one of those is my usually adopted *computer chair slouch* positions. I'm having to adopt good posture till it stops feeling like I bruised my butt... O_o
Ohhh, and it snowed today!
The first time I've seen snow this side of the new year in a VERY long time. It never snows here before January but today... big puffy white flakes.
It stuck around for a while too cause the ground was still frozen, but it didn't really snow enough to lay more than a few flakes and it melted pretty fast.
Only disadvantage to that, of course, was that it was friggin' cold in Notts. >.<
I have to get cracking on that stuffing soon... when I can work up the energy to make some space in the kitchen. it's insane in there right now and I'm having trouble locating the worktops under all the FOOD... -_-;;
