Ooooh, its nearly my birthday. I’ll be 26 next month, and looking back at my list from last year, not that much has changed. I did get my iPhone (and how did I survive without it? Oh Apple, I bloody well love you) and I ended up buying the beautiful PPQ dress for Lou and Naths wedding (and ended up having a baby throw up all down it. Because I am just that glamourous.)
I’ve been compiling various wishlists, so instead of having to say “um, erm, I don’t know. Money?” when someone asks me what I want for my birthday, I can just point them at this list! Yay!
Amazon * ModCloth * ShanaLogic * Topshop
There are of course certain things that you can’t put on a wishlist, but I’d love the following things:
A house of my own (I know, I don’t ask for much. But this is my wishlist, so shh) * A decent blog theme (I’m a geek for putting it here, but it needs a makeover!) * A weekend in a gorgeous hotel in a random city (dare I say it, a mini break even) * A decent nights sleep (I honestly can’t remember the last time I slept all night without waking at 4am, and I seem to have lost the ability to sleep past 7am completely. A sign of age?) * An amazing party, in a fabulous bar with all my friends there (I already have ideas where I’d have it!) * A nice photo of me (I’m starting to think all cameras hate me)
I will do you a theme, I promise! We need to chat about what ‘xactly you want.. one evening this week grab me on gchat or something so we can talk about it :-)
Oh no! I had forgotten I had asked you, and now it seems like I’m hinting :( If I’m not on GChat, I’m usually on AIM these days under ilikebeachfires
Miss Constantine, firstly there ARE nice pictures of you, but the human brain is programmed to dislike ANY photo of itself that it sees, so you wouldn’t know about it.
Secondly, I can’t sleep past about 7 either; it is DEFINITELY a sign of getting old.
Balls. Stupid getting old.
Hey, I can take pictures of camera-paranoid people that even they like! Trick is to take shedloads of pictures — until the person is so bored with the pictures that they actually relax — and then pick just a couple out of the tons you’ve got. And keep talking with as much inane funny rubbish as you can generate while snapping, so they can’t help smiling ;)
It is just very unusual that there is a photo of me I like!
