Train her well. ;)

Damn right :P

Haha! I will! Maybe a ninja outfit for Christmas? :p

That's so cute that jasmine is going to be a sheep.

Good afternoon. How is everyone?

Hi Lorraine!

I'm good thanks. Going on a date in an hour and I'm pretty nervous!

How are you?

I hope your date goes well. I can understand you being nervous, especially if it's a first date? Is it a first date?

Hi,
I'm new here but I wasn't really sure where I was meant to post on the huge Introductions page and I really need a distraction right now from some, uh, other thoughts so figured this would be the place to head.

Hi welcome to RYL. I hope you find it helpful. This is our distraction thread. We talk about all sorts of random stuff. How are you?

Thanks. Panicking, emotional, worrying. It's quite a long list right now. I'm meant to be reading and writing for my thesis but I'm too wound up to be any use for the moment. What are you up to?

Sorry you are worrying. Why don't you take a little break for a while and try do something relaxing.

I'm watching Big Bang theory on tv.

I'm running out of time so don't feel like I can take a break really. Catch 22 I suppose. I feel, at least with this here there are people to talk to so the pressure for working isn't so great.
Ah, I've never been such a BBT fan. Couldn't really get into it. I'm more of a BBC girl. Casualty and Holby mostly.

It is a first date Lorraine! We're going for a meal then crazy golf.

Hi BunnyHops! Welcome to ryl! :)
I also love casualty and holby!

Bunnyhops, I like casualty too. Did you watch it last night?

Beckie, crazygolf is a good idea for a first date. Sounds like fun.

Yep, crazy golf won't be so intense like having to talk the whole time! Takes a bit of the pressure off!

That's true. And you will likely have a bit of a laugh playing it. I've never played crazy golf.

I did :)
I was a little put out by the background music though this week. It seemed really loud and was pretty off putting from the actual talking and acting.
I'm also sad that there is no Casualty now until NYE. It was very early for a Christmas episode and I didn't feel anything massively exciting happened.
Hi Beckie :waving: I haven't done crazy gold in yeeears. Have fun!

Yeh, I would have expected a big cliffhanger at this time of year, but there wasn't. I'm a bit of a Dylan fan. Okay, I'm a big bit of a Dylan fan.

Evening all.

Hi Amy. How are you?

I'm tired today. How are you?

I'm having a better day, so feeling a bit relieved after weeks of panicking.

Good. I'm glad.

Did you manage to get out with ritzi this weekend?

I'm glad you're having a better day Lorraine :)

Thank you. How are you?

I am around. Just watched about half of The Polar Express. It's the most that I have seen of the film.

Hi Dawn. How are you? Enjoying the film? I'm watching the Big Bang theory but I might just put a DVD on soon.

I love The Polar Express. Such a lovely feel good Christmas film but interesting as a children's film.
I'm actually in the middle of a Masters on Children's Literature. It would be really interesting to go back and watch now with my critical academic head on!

Oh, hi everyone - better introduce myself. I'm new and the distraction thread is the first place I needed to come. I'm listening to music because I'm also working. I'd rather be watching tv too though! Listening to Hairspray. Anyone else a Musical Theatre fan?

Bunnyhops that sounds like an interesting thing to study. I'm not a huge fan of musical theatre, but I do like rocky horror picture show and little shop of horrors.

I've never seen Little Shop of Horrors. I've been to tRHPS many a time though. Always fun to dress up and shout out in a theatre. It feels very rewarding, feeling like you're a rebel.

Yip, it's a lot of fun. I'm going to log off for a while but I'll likely back later.

I got out for a bit yeah.

That's good you got out. I hope you managed to relax and enjoy yourself.

I didn't. It was bad actually. But never mind.

Sorry to hear that. Try take it easy this evening. I'm here if you want to talk.

Thanks. I'm just watching one tree hill. What're you up to?

I'm watching the Big Bang theory. I badly want to go to my bed but I'm stopping myself.

Ah I like the Big Bang theory. Probably best not to go to bed just yet.

True. I think I'll stay up watching tv.

Good idea.

You're missing out is an epic musical!

I love big bang as well <3

Hey Katy, how are you?

Managed to go to the local community centre for a cup of tea with my dad and a support worker, plus the centre has a library with big print books which I didn't know so that's positiive. Still feeling a bit funky but glad I managed to go somewhere. How are you Amy?

Hi Katy. That's good you got out to the library.

Thanks :) have you had a good day?

I'm glad you got out for a bit, Katy. Sorry you still don't feel so good.

I have got rocky horror on dvd. My mum saw a bit of it on telly and called it crap.

I've never seen it but love the songs.

I have had a good day thanks. I stayed over at my sister's and she made me a yummy breakfast of vegetarian sausage sandwich. We chilled in her flat and then went for a coffee.

To be honest I'm not a big fan of Rocky but I do think some of the songs are decent.
