:lol: This happens a lot with me too. I don't know why she HAS to watch ALL the soaps one after another. And, the only time I can watch anything is during the commercial break :rolleyes: :lol:

I don't have that problem because I always have the remotes (and mum can't work the digibox remote, so I'm in charge of it :lol:)
I've tv and digital in my room so i'm fine. Dont really watch tv but when i do its my dad i have thwe battle with!:p He's got the digital piped to his "cave". I usually settle for dvds instead or a good book!
my mother is still trying to learn how to turn the tv on :) she usually breaks it and i end up having to fix it.
^^ Lucky you!! My mom fights with me over the TV and the computer...and she usually ends up by getting us a virus on the computer..and then blames it on me :sick:
And I DO have the remotes normaly, but it takes more than that to stop my mother :lol:
My mum knows how to turn a computer on but she just doesn't know how to get online :lol:. And even if she did, she wouldn't know how to make it work anyway. I've showed her some online puzzles and a puzzle game that I downloaded once. It's just a demo but she likes it. I managed to shift it over to her username too so she doesn't keep bugging me to open it on my username. I regretted it for a while because she'd sit there for ages. But now I sleep in so late that we don't clash anymore :D.
So how is everyone enjoying their time off of school? Hope you are all relaxing and getting lots of reading (and writing -- YAY) done!
I have put off reading Dead Souls (Gogol) long enough, and plan to bite into that book. I have been writing a lot of haiku lately, too. But mainly I have been trying to squeeze extra hours into my days, which is not an easy task, lol! Our family has a wedding in a day from now, and there is lots going on around here! I LOOOOOOOOOVE weddings! Cheers everyone! :)
^^ Congrates :D Who's getting married?!
And about the computer..well she knows how to get online...Something real funny happened once..she wrote the adress of the site wrong..and she ended up in a porn site :lol:..trust me..she stayed away from the computer for a while after that :lol: But she's back in habbit now..lol
Well, I'm loving my holiday. It's just like a really really long weekend. Haven't done any reading though even though I've got a whole stack of fantasy books on a chair somewhere that I got a couple of Christmases and birthday's back. I've only read one out of the stack and that prompted mum into getting the second but I've only read a bit of that. It was the first in the Banned and the banished series. Let's see what else I have there. i haven't looked at that chair for a while :lol:. There's an old printer and shoe box on top of them so I keep forgetting them.
Wow, they're a bit dusty. I have, from my aunt one Christmas (She has these in her book shelf too, I happen to know) (and this is in they order they're stacked, I know which one really comes first, it says so on the back :lol:) The Amber Spyglass, Northern Lights, The Subtle Knife and from my mum one birthday; Fire Music (though it now turns out that this is actually a sequel) and The Heart of Myrial and also there was Wit'ch Fire, which I read and now have the next in the series Wit'ch Storm. I know why my mum picked those three up. They all have dragons on the front or things that look like dragons. This has got me thinking, I really should start reading again. I've been thinking about but haven't been bothered to do it. Now I've got them out, I might as well start.
Thanks for the encouragement Kiz and by the way, weddings are always good the only problem is trying to remember who everyone is and how you know them :lol:.
Sorry, I've nattered on too much again :).
Hey everyone. Feeling kind of lonely around litnet lately. Anyone up for some coffee?
Me too!!
I'm going through one of these depression phases myself. You know, when you feel like crying or eating in the most unearthly time ever...lol
Brownie Nossa. Made them last night. I havent been around litnet as much as usual lately because of work. Maybe everyone else is the same. Too busy with work.
I guess I'm probably the only one round here who doesn't work..lol
And I LOVE Brownies...haven't eaten them in a while though.
Last night round 1:30 am, I ate chocolate cake..with some milk..who eats chocolate cake with milk anyways?!! lol
I've been known to eat weirder things at weirder times. If i'm getting up for work at 3.30am i could quite easily eat chocolate cake.
