Sorry to anyone who may have been looking at this over the past couple of days hoping for an update, alhtough I doubt there's many of you! I have been starting work at 7am, and to be honest haven't really felt like looking at a computer screen when I get back, and haven't even had much time during the days to update. I actually prefer starting work early to finishing late. Somehow by the time it gets to 10am, I've forgotten that I was at work an hour and a half before everyone else, whereas if I was there til 6.30pm everyday, I dare say that would be less easily forgotten! I have managed to clock up a fair amount of overtime already this month, and its only the 1st! Roll on payday!
On Wednesday Louisa and I went to a class at the gym called Body Jam. We have been going to salsa aerobics for about 2 years, and suddenly our teacher resigned from the Abingdon gym and now only teaches in Oxford. I know its only a gym class, but we had got into quite a good routine of going on a monday and friday, and I really enjoyed it, and felt like I could at least eat what I liked, because I was still exercising. So for the past month or so I have been feeling more and more sluggish from not doing any exercise, and also getting progessively flabbier!! So anyway, Body Jam was a pretty good alternative to salsa. I managed to work up a sweat but still really enjoyed myself. Its kind of like street dancing I guess, I will soon be the coolest girl around! But now I'm going to have to change my whole routine, because body Jam is on a sunday and wednesday! I would really like to still go to salsa every now and again, but it means travelling 20 mins as opposed to 5 to the abingdon gym, and paying for the pleasure, when I get really cheap gym membership through work anyway. A bit pointless really.
Tonight I have been over to a friends for a typical British barbecue where everyone sits out in the rain and eats raw meat! It was really nice, just a few people from work, really relaxed. But after Big Brother and one too many red wines, I was feeling a bit too relaxed, and nearly falling asleep, (I am such a lightweight) so here I am, back home writing a load of waffle, waiting for Adam to get home from his work summer party. Talking of BB though, I am *so* glad Saskia was evicted. I absolutely hated her. She blatantly didn't really liek Maxwell all that much, and just wanted to get on the cameras as much as possible, conniving little ******!
Anyway, I'd better go and get ready for bed, I had a contact lens appointment today, and the chap told me to try to make sure I didn't keep them in for more than 12 hours. So after putting them in at 6.30am today, they've been in my eyes for nearly 18hours already. oops.

Don't let Benj read this post Mim, he was absolutely appalled when I stopped playing cards with him to go and watch BB!
Glad you had fun at Body Jam as well, but I'll be surprised if your eyes aren't tired today - you obviously just have too active a social life!

Est, surely you're not allowed to watch BB!
I would never have been allowed to watch it when *I* lived at home!
We're watching Live 8 atm, and there's a fair bit of swearing on it, waiting for the kids to ask what a few words mean ...
