Shawn of the Dead ended on a good note. I wouldn't want the chance that it'd be ruined in a sequel. Maybe the sequel would be great, but I'd still get nervous if a sequel was announced.

I haven't told my work yet i have another job as i wanted to be sure i have one. As long as i have not signed any paper work i am still not sure.

So still need to tell... but after i get all paper work done. Then i will hand in my notice. Not sure what to tell them... they never see it coming

i saw that movie... did not like it much.. I do like zombie movies, etc but not this one.

It's smart to wait until the paperwork has come through. Congrats one your one year subeta anniversary!

I'm sorry that it's so hard for you to visit even the big websites. Since I work at a public transport company we are aware that disabled people need us to get around and there's always extra attention to serve those people. But still, like I said it's very hard if you can see everything yourself. So you also read braille? The blind person testing the website for us a braille reader as well as a screen reader.

I had a girls night out with some of my friends yesterday. I think it was the first time out since October and we really had fun.

- sorry to tell you this but "shaun of the dead " is the first movie in the "3 flavors cornetto" trilogy directed by edgar wright and starring simon pegg and nick frost. the second movie is "hot fuzz" and the third movieis called "the world's end". they are all comedic spoofs ofpopular us and british movies. edgar wright has also said that there will be no "shaun of the dead 2" because it would wreck the trilogy. have you heard something different?

- no, i can't read brail. i tried but the neuropathy in my fingers is too far progressed. i'm glad that i could make you more aware of how people in my situation do things. i'm very happy with the screen reader and while a braille reader would make it easier i have never been one to take the easy path. ;) it's all good. :D how was your weekend? :)

- congratulations on the new job! i'm so glad yu were able to get the terms yu wanted. cheers! i hope yur old job won't be too upset about you leaving. maybe they will start offering better wages/hours/benefits to the workers they have left. and is 6 weeks notice the norm there? here it's supposed to be 2 weeks but people tend to walk off the job once they have better jobs waiting for them.anyways, happy sunday. i hope you had a good weekend. :)

I know it's the first of a trilogy and I've seen all but Hot Fuzz. And saw the last one in theaters with my husband.

I meant a proper sequel to it as each entry in the trilogy are related because of ice cream flavors (I believe Cornetto is a type of ice cream in England). Sort of like how John Carpenter's Apocalypse Trilogy (The Thing, Prince of Darkness, and In the Mouth of Madness) is. Sure you can say they're all part of a trilogy, but the Prince of Darkness isn't a sequel to The Thing.

And I agree with the director as I think it's a trilogy because Cornetto only has three flavors.

That's too bad. Is the neuropathy because of your diabetes? My weekend was great! On friday evening I played D&D and on saturday evening I had a girls night out for the first time in half a year. It was my diet cheat day and I had a bit too much of prosecco, oops... The rest of the time was family time.

I loved Hot Fuzz. I think I liked it the best of those three movies.

Congratulations on the contract! I hope your colleagues won't give you a bad time for leaving. I think it's great that you're choosing to take this step for your happiness!

I've seen near the beginning and end of Hot Fuzz. It seems good and has been on my To Watch list for years. I love Simon Pegg and Nick Frost so I don't know why I haven't seen the full film before.

- :P :D well fine. :P the one time i think i know something you have to spoil it. :P :D lol yo should see hot fuzz. it's funny. the worlds end left us scratching our heads a bit but we still liked it.

- you didn't like shaun of the dead? why? don't you love it when you get free time you weren't expecting? i'm glad you had a quiet sunday. :)

- not at first although i think the diabetes is contributing to it now. it one of the lovely gifts my illness left behind. what is ed?oh, a girl's night out! i haven't had one of those in ages. i'm glad you had a good time. :D

Don't worry, my hubby has the same problem XD

Though he can run circles around me when talking about cars. I swear he doesn't speak English when he does O.O'

I love sci-fi/alien invasion so World's End will probably remain my favorite of the trilogy.


Yesterday was the anniversary of our first date and so we went to Longhorn Steakhouse. I got a gift card to there for Christmas so we didn't have to spend that much money :)

We also watched Pig (with Nic Cage) a few hours after we got home. He is diabetic and had to sleep dinner off xD

I got the Outlaw Ribeye extra rare. Brian also decided to try steak but got it rare instead. There's a steak bigger than that but it doesn't taste as good.

Our first date should never have happened. He was over an hour late and I waited for him because I had nothing better to do XD

Then it turned out after working on his mom's car he spilled some gas (or something) on himself and he couldn't get the stench off of him but I can't smell so I didn't notice. Then I farted throughout the date.

I think you meant to ask: What is D&D? It's short for Dungeons and Dragons and a tabletop roleplaying game. For now, I'm the dungeon master, which means I make up the story and act out all the characters my party meet.

I hope you're having a nice day off!

I'm not really that much into horror, but the humor makes these movies enjoyable for me.

- did you mean to say you liked the early years of the walking dead but not the later ones? i can understand not liking the later years. i stopped watching after that motorcycle gang was introduced and maggie announced she was pregnant. it just wasn't believeable anymore. it started out so good too. it sounds like you had a couch potato day. those are the best. watch anything good? :)

- yes, i heard it as "e" "D" and thought it was something new. i used to play d&d in high school and. i haven't played in years , though. it sounds like you had fun.i always had a blast. :D

Finally went to the dermatologist. Turns out I might have a precancerous mole/thing on my back. I got a biopsy so it'll be around a week until I get the results.

I had a precancerous mole on my left shoulder (hence I now have to go to a dermatologist once a year) so I'm not worried. If they catch it soon enough there shouldn't be a problem :)

keeping my fingers crossed for your biopsy! Good that you caught it early again!

Sounds like a nice day! were you watching anything special?

This is my first time as a DM, and I have to say it's very different from being a player. It's a lot of improvisation, because the party often doesn't go through the story like you prepared it. The party I have right now constantly thinks of very elaborate quips just to stay out of combat (dress up like hookers, make hats lined with led so people can't read their minds) In six session they only got in combat once.
