Grow me a garden of roses, paint me the colors of sky and rain.

Somehow my weekend has been filled with meh. I don't know why. Primeval had Cutter/Stephen snark and getting stuck on the wrong side of an anomaly which I've wanted to happen forever and was generally awesome (though I've worked out what I miss in this show; for all that the over-arcing plotlines are good, I miss proper two-parters that end on a cliffhanger). I finally tidied the carnage of my room. I'm excited about getting my hair cut on Tuesday and yeah, so I'm going to the freaking dentist again tomorrow but that's practically something I can do with my eyes closed and mp3 player firmly in place by now.

So why the meh? I don't know. Being stuck here with no money is finally getting on top of me maybe. I just- I just need to dig up some motivation from somewhere.

The Student Loan people have threatened to charge me £150 if I don't provide them with proof of how I financially support my unemployed ass. How this is meant to help the unemployed people, I'm not entirely sure. Possibly it'll give them a bankruptcy notice to provide as proof. (Incidentally, how do you provide proof of 'sponging off your parents because you're lazy'?)

So, meh. Though I saw a tank of seahorses today and they were stunningly pretty in an alien sort of way. It'd be awesome to have them as pets except (a) they're apparently insanely difficult to keep and I couldn't cope with the guilt of killing them and (b) they didn't come up to the glass to say hello, unlike the bearded dragon who was cute and interesting rather than pretty.

Both of them were better than the geckos who, while awesome, had a cage full of crawling beetle-like insects as lunch. Ngh. Just no.

I did think it took them rather a long time to get from the anomaly to her. ^_~ But yeah, it's not exactly the way I would've had them get stuck. Then again, my way probably wouldn't go with a 7pm kids' show... :D

You make it sound like you think the Student Loan Company are there to help people, not just make money. /in no way being bitterness.

I do keep making that mistake. *shares your bitterness*
