6 August 2012

because now it's august

that's the closest I got to the olympics 

 this is what my texts to my brother look like - poor boy


what?! guys, why on earth didn't you tell me that it was august already? dagnabbit, I hardly had time to drink a spit-ful of tea in july before august sneaked up and yelled boo! in my ear. thanks a lot august.

you may well be asking where on earth have I been these past 50 million years and that would be a fair enough question. but, I don't have a fair enough answer. because august is a sneaky toad.
and then, you may well be asking where on earth my q&a vlog is. well, I do have a fair enough answer for that one. the mac lead/charger decided to give up the ghost apple and we took it to the store to get a new one. would they just be nice and give us a lead? no. they wanted to babysit for a whole ten days.

AUGUST GOALS

write six full chapters of my new novel
pilates every day
get a sewing machine
record a cover of a song
kidnap mark gatiss and threaten him to tell me the clue
get a twitter account
read northanger abbey
finish editing my q&a vlog - ahem, listen up apple!


AUGUST LOVES

bourne legacy
three weeks in a new place
the sister coming up
brave
finishing geography
the brother coming back

the mac returning to meeeee


what are you august goals and loves? or did you still think we were in july?

love you all.
be good, tell me you ag's and your al's and send you brother annoying texts.

  6. hehehehe. this whole post made me giggle like a little girl. because I know when and where you took that photo, and I skype-met your brother (and do I know who you're talking about in your texts??? WHO IS THAT?!), and I just love you a lot because you're cute and funny.
    "august is a sneaky toad." I laughed at my computer screen. because that's so something you'd say in real life. ahahha I miss yoouuuu.
    you're writing a novel? do tell! and also--yes yes yes, twitter. you must. and have I convinced you to read Northanger Abbey at last? it's so good. so hilarious. and Brave--yesss me likes.
    ps--this cracked me up. you'd make an awesome hilarious evil guy.
