I have a zombie computer...

...either that or its the second coming. actually i think it is. it died on friday, stayed dead over the weekend then came back to life today, on the third day. huzzah, lets all eat chocolate eggs and worship the son of a god i dont believe in who has taken the form of a useless, crappy, ancient, over 5 years old computer!

we didnt put it in a cave with a big rock over the door though...

hum what to say....

OBLIGATORY MOVIE MAKING BIT: im going to spend next week being bored out of my skull on a narrowboat so im going to get my script finished!...well...started at least. there may have to be a major rewrite plot-wise depending on if Fran is still interested in acting in it.

My mate Muscat wants us to film cut down versions of all 6 Star Wars films. i cut them down much further than he did, but i still have a bad feeling about it interfering with my Vamp Movie.

if anyone has any ideas for decent titles for any of my films then let me know.

oh, yeah. when i went into town on the bus this morning (yes i said morning! i got up at 9.15 because Eejit #5 from Big Brother was on the radio and he was annoying me), i suddenly realised what a high population of Chav Scum we have in Pompey. while suitably disgusted with this, it did give me the idea to turn all the zombies from Film 2 into chavs (but still acting like zombies cos...well...theres not much difference. all i can think of is zombies dont have kids and give them awful names like Candice). i'll have to rewrite the end though...

anyhoo: i went into town today to buy some shorts (i only had 1 pair, but now i have 3 cos they were 2 for a fiver in the Officers Club sale. the bloke who served me gave me a funny grin which im slightly worried about. i have a strange feeling that the shorts will suddenly unravel at the seams the instant im in a crowded area) and a Nintendo DS, to help ease the bordom when im not scriptwriting on the boat.

the woman who served me in Virgin Megastore was a bit of an eejit too, just not as much of one as Food Technology from Big Brother. I had to stand and wait for 5 minutes while she called for someone to bring down the console to go in the empty box from off the shelf and then another 10 while two other people turned up to debate whether or not i did get a tenner off for buying the console with a game, despite it saying so on a big sign over the Nintento DSs on the opposite side of the shop and clearly visible from the counter where i was attempting to pay.

after that i wandered round to Game and bought Wario Ware to go with my DS, then came home .
oh, TARDIS to earlier in the morning: while i was standing at the bus stop to go into town i saw an Evil and Suspicious-Looking Man. he was tall and thin, with short grey hair and was wearing a long green raincoat and those little round sunglasses and he was looking around Mysteriously. what made him more suspicious was that he was going into the library by walking up the disabled ramp instead of the stairs. perhaps hes working for Maddie's Dr Evil...(who wears short shorts? Dr Evil wears short shorts!). i also think Stagecoach are losing money because i asked for a return to Commercial Road which is usually £2.70, but he only charged me £2 and when i checked my ticket to make sure he hadnt given me a single by mistake i found hed given me a Portsmouth Day-Rider which is usually £2.80.

anyhoo, TARDIS back to where we were: i caught the bus home, had some lunch and played with me DS until 4.45, then went to work from 5 til 9. wasnt too busy, but i have a nice burn on my arm where i managed to splash it with stuff from the vats we cook the chicken in. im surprised how little it hurt, possibly cos it was only at 182 degrees and im used to burning my hands on the grills which are at 218 degrees...
the burns are blistering nicely.

there was a new girl there today who seemed quite nice. she was a bit flirty with me, so my luck might be changing. i think she might be the niece of one of the managers though, but Paula's on maternity leave so thats ok.

now im back home, catching up on various things i missed while my puter was dead and am marvelling at how they managed to fit Super Mario 64 DS on a card 33mm x 35mm x 3mm when the original Super Mario 64 came on a cartrige 115mm x 75mm x 20mm.

will try to Blog again before i leave for Family Holiday on a Narrowboat Hell, but you never know whats going to happen with this computer. i hope while im there i can get my hands on Rosie and Jim, those two harmless, narrowboat dwelling ragdolls who are really possessed by demons of pure evil so that i can drown them in a lock...

Yes! I think he was definitely working for Dr Evil - or - wait for it - could even *be* Dr Evil. Your description makes him sound fairly similar, and it would also explain why he wasn't walking down my road last week. Either way, he's planning to do something very very evil.

Oh and don't you even THINK about drowning Rosie and Jim. I'll never forgive you.

alright, i'll just rough them up a bit and leave them in a heap on the towpath with their stuffing hanging out.
ill make sure they both survive.

if i ever see Evil and Suspicious Looking Man again i'll be sure to aprehend him and sit on his head until the authorities arrive.
