Do you ever watch New Girl, Pem?

It is the funniest sitcom Ive seen since Scrubs was at its best, so brilliant.

I love it! Not only cause her name is awesome :pac: but it's just brilliant. The lastest episode (

which mentions a wedding

)isn't on the rte player yet but I love it!

I also love 2 Broke Girls, I have caught up on my girlie tv tonight

Panthro

I bought a PS Vita.
I can't afford a PS Vita.
Hell, I can't afford dust at the moment.
But still, I love my new Vita.:pac:

Liam McPoyle

Oh Panthro, you so crazy!

Panthro

Haha!
Me so crazy!
I've wanted one for months but couldn't justify the price tag, then I spotted a bundle deal with 100 bucks off, Jesus spoke to me and he said "Ring the shop and reserve it, you will have it by 5pm.." and I did. Excuse my french but the cnuting thing didn't work so I had to return it for a new one.
Bahhh! Soo worth it though!

Liam McPoyle

Hand helds just don't do it for me (snigger). I bought a Nintendo DS a couple of years ago just for New Super Mario Brothers, finished that, got bored and sold it.

What games ya git?

LOVE New Girl!

I had never heard of that PS yoke until Panthro's post! :cool:
I'm right in thinking it's gaming thing, aren't I?

Panthro

Yeah, the girl at the time bought me a DS Guitar Hero edition, lovely thought but I never really used it.
The Fifa game on the DS was just terrible.

I got Madden 13 (anyone wana buy a Madden 13?! ) game...I may have bought Fifa 13 for it as well..
I may also have purchased one of those accessory kits as well.

I'm definitely on the dust diet for the next few weeks, good times!

Kev.OC

Damn it Panthro!

Now I want a Vita!

The tv doesn't work in our house. I think that might be enough justification to buy one.

Panthro

Bestbuy selling a Madden Bundle (minus a memory card I might add) for 168bucks incl tax Kev, by far the cheapest I've seen round here. (And I've trawled through a few websites!) I was going to pick up a 2nd hand one on Craigslist, but at least with bestbuy if shyt hits the fan you can bring it back to them.

D'Agger

Same boat as Nec - never been a fan of hand-held consoles.

One good use of my media PC - I no longer have to sit at my desk to watch the Networking videos, lounging on the couch ftw....however I'm now procrastinating at the desk. Fack.

Crappy day in Cork but have a match at 6 to look forward to

You got a PS Plus sub Panthro? Gets you 3 free Vita games a month for as long as you keep your sub

To Bestbuy!...next week. Spent a shocking amount of money on two pairs of shoes today.

Tuesday to Thursday this week.

Well I'm far enough away that I'll probably be watching on a screen if the Millennium Forum has one.

D'Agger

Oh look it's past 3pm

The Black Oil

Quiet...has the 3pm slump lasted for 2 days?

I can confirm that yes...the slump continues.

Went to the gym this morning and did a good bit of cycling/stamina work

Hoping to catch a yoga class later tonight too....came across a really cool software that'd make my life alot easier but I guarantee I won't be able to purchase a license for it and the trial ends in a month so I now feel like I shouldn't grow attached to it

I definitely have the slump
it might be junk time

The Black Oil

Thought you were on about Yoga software for a second there.

Do you've a secret stash of chocolate/junk, bw?

Maybe I was....

No, but the canteen always has chocolate to sell

Panthro

Dang, the half orsed diet that begins every Monday morning without fail got broke last night, 3 slices of pizza.
And that's Canadian sized slice, which is basically half a whale worth of pizza..

I deserve a hot chocolate to help get me through this troubling time!

I find it easiest to only try to eat well 70-80% of the time, Panthro. Outside of that, I eat what I want I am trying to train myself to want things that are less bad for me, but that's, err, a work in progress ... :pac:
Although I did recently re-discover the wonders of hot chocolate and wonder how I'd gone so long without it. I may have it three nights in a row :pac:

BW, I always keep emergency chocolate in my desk drawer for such occasions!

I should do that too

I want pizza also, i came home and my grandmother was like why dont you order a pizza
yeah I definitely need to get fatter!

I'm watching Masterchef so I had a brownie. You need something nice watching all that food!



I bought the brownie on Tuesday but kept forgetting to eat it after my dinner. I think I may be sickening for something :pac:

That wait can either be epically long or epically short.

Where'd you buy the brownie? Yum or cheap mass produced cake?

*wipes drool*

I'm too picky to buy anything mass-produced that isn't from M&S
It was really yum. From Hansel & Gretel, the new bakery on Clare Street. I recommend!

Must google them... I don't eat cake, so I'm living vicariously through everyone else's cake life

The Black Oil

Rugby or brownies, Herm, you choose. :P

I also bought a really nice rye bread from them. They sliced it for me so that I could defrost a slice at a time to go with my lunchtime soup. I mean, in theory. The practice has not worked out quite like that :pac:

The Black Oil

Pfft, brownies all the way. :P

Morning...Friday.

I can't....it's not real....I'm a liar

I'm listening to this at work this morning.

I'm thinking of going home after work, keeping the shirt and tie on, putting it on loud in the sitting room, and smoking a cigar

That's your take on it. Mine is that I've loved rugby all my life

Thank fook it's Friday! Long week was long and madly busy. I've been waiting all week for a glass of wine!

Head's getting closer and closer to the desk here. Have to try and stay awake for another 90 minutes or so

Can you get up and go for a little walk even just to get a coffee? I hate that feeling.

CastorTroy

Tea drank, water drank. Going for each of those things done. Talking to people done.

Still sleepy.

Could be worse. Could be like when I was back in secondary school. Trying to stay awake in physics class by stabbing a compass into my hand. Didn't help much. Though I do still have the marks.

First skydive booked! Going up next weekend.

"If I don't make it, tell my wife "Hello"." :pac:

The Black Oil

Cool, good luck with that.
