We'll have to look for another place, luckily we've got some time but we'll probably have to move somewhere else nearby because prices here have gone up a lot in the past few years.

^ if your rent is at a reasonable market rate would your landlord considering selling the flat with you as a sitting tenant? Or are they masquerading a huge rent increase under the guise of *selling up*?

^ No, it's not that. We had some wrangling a while ago about putting the rent up and when we told them what the limit of housing benefit was they didn't believe it was as low as it is! They had to go away and speak to someone who knows about these things who told them that the number we had told them is correct. So they agreed to put the rent up only a bit, which was nice of them, but we knew they were going to ultimately want to sell.

If a new landlord took over they'd likely put the rent up to full market rate and that would be out of our price range.

based on how expensive most dresses fashion designers release like every season, cleavage is mostly deemed as classy, but buttcrack is always being looked down upon, although technically both are cleavages.

The thing with languages is that for some reason I don't buy the 'cavemen grunts thing' like in the movies, and how a language started evolve from simple to complex.

I wouldn't be surprised if languages have always been there with all its complexity, just like laws of physics/nature, we don't know how they came into existence, they are just are.

Time to make the property as unattractive to buyers as possible. 24/7 cabbage cooking should do it.

Work, tomorrow .
Don't feel like it at all. I also have a new line manager, who is 25. I'm probably being ageist but it is very difficult to take supervision from someone nearly half my age and who is still at uni.

I wouldn't mind taking direction from someone much younger who's mature, well meaning and professional about things.

Yeah, so hope they're not a knob is what i'm saying

Well the jury is still out if any of the above qualities will be met. Or knobish- ness (is that a word?) will prevail.

Yesterday, I went for dinner with my sister at a service station and when I went to the toilet I got a message saying "you won't be able to find me!" from her. So I took that to be an invitation to start up a game of hide and seek, so I was looking round everywhere for her but it turned out that she was just sitting where I'd left her and the message was from earlier in the day and it just hadn't sent until then !

I don't understand a word, though. I know the woman because she is somewhat a famous MMA girl.

aw my Indian housemate has moved out. I liked her, she kept herself to herself.

Interesting perhaps. ^ I'm not a reptile fan myself. I had a boyfriend of my sister who was, and for some reason he put his bearded dragon in the freezer. Very peculiar.

^^Yea, very strange! OMG, the freezer?! =)

The bearded dragon ones are no way as fast/intimidating as the ones I normally see.
In some of my recurring disturbing dreams, there's usually a lizard that is chasing/following me everywhere I go.
