Writing, reading, listening to music, drinkin' tea and whatever else comes to hand, preferably of the alcoholic persuasion... plotting out mass murders, living in a fantasy world with more bizarre rules than the real one, goofing around on the internet... I like to scribble more than I like Scrabble, but neither as much as I like to dribble. I hate computers and all things technical. I believe the world should be kept as simple as possible, and if at all possible, simpler still! This includes day-to-day chores, CD players, sibling issues, mood swings and the ordering of take-out.
Gunga Din. Why? ...I just like the name.

Unless The Simpsons are on, it's not really worth turning the TV on lately. Make-over shows, home make-over shows, cooking programmes, and more people whining about how difficult and complicated life is, especially when they're trying to cheat on one another... Ooh, I liked CSI though. Haven't seen it in ages.
