Remember, remember, the 5th of November...
I'm investigating about Guido Fawkes right now. Apparently, some thought Shakespeare might have been one of the conspirators, and thus, Shakespeare wrote Macbeth as an effort to please King James.

Here's my randomness for the day. I haven't been on in a while, so I thought I would check in to see if anything interesting was happening. Seems no news is good news, lately, so I'm out for now.
Just checking in.

No, no - I meant GNet. That's the "you" that that paragraph is referring to.
Like I said, I understand your position, Magpie. But their post annoyed me, being as it was patronising, hypocritical, and too little too late.

Hey Jillian - I read in another thread that you're going to Europe soon, right? Where in Europe are you going?

Nice timing. This is going to be my last post on my hometown, I think.
I'm leaving today at about 4:00 a.m.
Visiting the traditional places: Rome, Paris, London, and this cool town in Austria and a lake in Switzerland.
See you all in a while. I'll look for a Café Internet or something.

This is not quite on subject, but this thread is called Randomness........
My cat is just eating a HUGE night butterfly just in front of my face (on my table!) and there is also an absolutely enourmous turtle crawing around the whole day in the garden that my windows looks on to.
o! No, the cat is no longer eating the thing....it namely flew off. I can't quite comprehend that, because the last thing I remember was that it's wings were bitten off. Strange how creatures act in extreme situations.
And all that drama without even having to move from my table!

You probably won't get to read this post, but do you mean Vienna? Because if so, I could tell which places here are most worth visiting.

Oh, the poor butterfly (I love butterflies)! At least it managed to fly off.

I absolutely hate butterfyies...but I do have respect for this one...it managed to fly without wings afterall!
My cat is now absolutely depressed and keeps running around and saying a desperate "mmmrrriaw" every few minutes. When she's like that I am ready to catch the butterly for her.

Hey Jillian, good luck on your trip - can't wait to hear about all the cool places that you get to see. And you have to taste the REAL italian pizza. It's supposed to be way better than what we get.
How long is the plane trip? I'm laving for America in 11 days and the trip is 24 and a half hours. I'm so not looking forward to that...

Real Italian pizza is the best. Pizza Hut can't really be called 'pizza' in comparison. But really it's the pasta that is purely amazing there. Italy has got to be one of my favourite countries just for the food alone. Add a few Renaissance cathedrals and Roman ruins and you have my favourite place on earth.
Edit: Oh and the beautiful people! My oh my, I would marry an Italian gentleman in an instant. And not just for the EU passport.

Poor cat... Will you pet her for me, too?

A clever kitty, indeed. And probably a great room-mate.

yeah, that's true, at least she doesn't bring any guys in the evenings or argue about who's to wash the dishes.

This is really cute...I moved the couch to fish out the fallen cigaretts and my cat went in and came out all excited and chewing on something. It turned out to be a piece of sossage that was dried up so that it looked like a chip of wood. The thing must have been lying there for at least two months. The cat refuses to eat something that's two days old but gets all exsited and crazy about a two months old piece of sossage?

I'm sitting in the spare room( obviously since i couldn't be on here otherwise)...and......it's bloody fucking buggering hot. What else.....i bought two new fish (living not dead) two days ago. Kribensis to be precise, i named them valium and lucifugus. My brother managed to find me a boglin. I dont know where he got it and to be honest, i dont want to know, but it's now stuck to my bedroom door. Impaled through it's tail with a pushpin.
My orange squash isn't nearly orangey enough. I bought a new ring today, it's plain silver, has a knuckle shape in the centre, and is now nestling on my right thumb.last week i had another tattoo, it's a green spider, and i've named him Brian. he lives on my inside left wrist. ok, i'm going now because i want to make my squash more orangey. thats all the randomness i can muster in this weather. toodle pip.

awww I got a wave, I feel loved. Oh and just so you all, at least the ones that care, know I am leaving today to go on a trip to Maine with my boyfriend and his family (I'm going on a family vacation and I don't know any of his extended family, should be interesting). I'll be gone for a little over a week but I will be back...at least for a little bit, then school starts and I once again have little to no free time
