Eek! May already…

Oh my gosh! I can not believe that it is halfway through May already… time is just flying by. April was super busy & super fun. I really enjoyed my time in Anglesey, Wales esp. seeing Buffy's reaction to the sea. Plus the coastal scenery was fantastic. There was a really beautiful Lighthouse out at Penmon Point with a great view of Puffin Island just by it. I also had a really nice birthday and got several nice gifts and cards.
Plus I went to the cinema a few times - I saw:

Fast & the Furious - I thought the action was great
X-Men Origins: Wolverine - I really liked this
I love you, Man - I thought this was really funny.

May has also been pretty busy. Buffy was a year old on May 3rd, I gave her a new toy - which she managed to chew through within 24 hours (but I believe she got some enjoyment out of it - before it's cotton innards were scattered all over the dining room floor). I also took Buffy to be groomed see below for the before and after shots (she is now about half the size and looking totally cute)




I have been working on some new artwork which I am primarily doing for my MySpace site as I have decided it looks a bit rubbish and really needs to be a lot more interesting. I also want to put some of my new songs up there sometime soon, hopefully I will get around to doing this within the next couple of months.

My horse riding is going well - I am cantering now and I had a great lesson last Saturday where I got to go on a little hack and was cantering in the fields, was very fun. I rode a horse called Blue who has a very nice temperament and loves to canter. I am riding him again this Saturday and as always I am looking forward to my next lesson.

Things that I am currently loving:

  • Buffy's new sleeker look

  • Cantering

  • All the good films that are being released at the moment: Bring on the new Terminator movie (I can't wait)

  • The fact that I just got tickets to go see Taking Back Sunday play in July

  • The news that Deadpool will be given the X-Men Origins film treatment - Yay - film it already :)

Things I am not loving so much:

  • People in supermarkets who feel the need to stand with their trolleys chatting to each other in front of shelves that people like me need to get to. Really people is this necessary??? Take the item you want to buy off of the shelf, put it in your basket or trolley and then get out of the way! Is this too much to ask?

  • The fact that I only just had time off from work and I really feel like I need more off again.

  • That quite a few of my bestest closest friends live in countries far far away. It would be nice sometimes to just pop round to their houses for a chat … not so easy when they miles and miles away.

Last film I watched: Fur: an imaginary portrait of Diane Arbus

Book I am currently reading: Time out of joint by Philip K Dick

Last CD I listened to: Colonia - A Camp - It is a really great CD. I went to see A Camp and Kristofer Astrom play in Leeds a couple of weeks ago and they were both totally awesome.

Well I am off to feed Buffy.

Later
