Never did do an update for the weekend

Oh well - not a lot happened. My brother and his GF came over for the Friday night and we played some games, watched some comedies, ate some pizza and generally talked rubbish. Also had a word with him about last weekend's fiasco, pointing out that I just don't have the time, interest or energy to deal with people who mess me about.

Which is true - these days life seems very short and there are many people I'm very fond of. Both online and in real life. There are barely enough hours in the day to be friends with myself and with all these pleasant, positive people. So why waste time on things you know are a dead-end for all those involved? It sounds a bit harsh, I know, but life is just too damn short :)

Spent the rest of the weekend chilling out. Watched "Henry V" on video - I'll (hopefully) be studying this next year. Think I got to grips with the plot - king invades France and kills a lot of people so that he can dink a chick :P I'm being supremely lazy at the moment - hopefully tomorrow I can catch up on some sleep!

Heheh - now you've destroyed my razor sharp critique. I was hoping to wing my way through many essays on the back of that, neatly sidestepping the fact that:

(a) my knowledge of military history is something along the lines of people painted themselves blue and wielded pointy sticks, then the US nuked Japan. Current weapons look vaguely to me like they should be illegal :)

(b) my knowledge of political/social history ends at the Anglo-Saxons. The next thing I'm aware of is Tudors and that Henry definitely did just do stuff to get chicks ;)
