Does anyone else have those moments of sheer lunacy when they're sitting in a meeting and say something that seems like a good idea at the time but actually just winds you up with a load of funny looks and chairs being shuffled not so subtly away?
Or when something pops into your head and out your mouth before you can stop it? Thought snot.
Sneezes.
How about when you're just sitting quietly minding your own business and something funny occurs to you and before you know it you're in hysterics and once more your colleagues are staring at you in horror...
Its not just me is it? Thu, May. 7th, 2009, 02:49 pm Race for Life
You'll be glad (or indifferent) to know that I managed to hit my target of £100 raised for Cancer research UK and completed the Race for Life Sunday past. I'm not sure how much the girls raised together but I believe it to be in the region of £150-200 but shall have a more accurate figure after the next meeting for those of you who are interested.
In other news. Wedding stuff - still going, house - forms forms forms, work - still have a job
Life = Good Work = Bad If Work(time) > Life(time) then Kaz(mood) = Stompy.
Raaaargh.
Tue, Apr. 7th, 2009, 04:01 pm Great Scott!
2 posts in 2 months! "What on earth is going on?!" I hear you cry. Well I shall put you out of your misery and tell you. Quite frankly, I'm only here because I want your money! Thats right all of it, just put it in the bag, back away slowly and tie your wrists with these zip ties..no? Ok so moving swiftly on... In the coming months I shall be running the Race for Life with the Norwich St Albans 23rd Girl Guides and I'm asking you lovely people out there to dig into your pockets and sponsor myself and the girls. Because if I'm going to be dragged into running 5k with 20 shrieking teenagers I'm not going to be doing it for free... But seriously, its for a good cause. I'm sure everyone out there reading this knows someone who has either had cancer, has cancer or has been adversely affected by cancer. My godfather is fighting it as I type, so please, it doesn't matter how much, just show a little support. Mug your colleagues and get them to show some support, mug your families and friends..hell mug the back of your sofa cushions because, as that irritating woman in the Tescos ads says, "every little helps" http://www.raceforlifesponsorme.org/karenmaltbyI'll nag no more, Thanks Wed, Mar. 11th, 2009, 09:56 am Still here
Soo yeah..hi. Still alive and stuff for anyone that still bothers checking this what with my incredibly slack postings. Got marriage date/venue/dress n whatnot with minimal fuss but I shalln't bore people with details. Suffice to say invites shall be going out to the family over the next few months/as soon as I pull my finger out and get em sorted. Buying a house, see mchicago and his numerous pictures. If you want more images you'll have to ask him more questions :D Got an iPhone which I'm currently posting from, rather nifty though a bit yupiesque but Ive found some useful molecule manipulation and periodic table programs linked to an all you need to know chemical data reference program, which make me feel less dirty. Uhh that's about it really, recovered from appendicitis, still have that chemical analyst job, still haven't won the lottery or blown myself up. Bye then :)

( Books )Not as uncultured as I like to think I am it seems...or maybe I am since I was forced to read and hated a large portion of them. Damn school English lessons, why don't they let you read decent books? I strongly object to some absolute legends being missed off there. Wheres R. Feist, D. Eddings or even T. Goodkind not to mention Rob Grant and his absolutely hysterical "Incompetence" now those are good books. Not that absolute load of tosh they make you read in school or you're compelled to read in order to become a "cultured well rounded individual" By choice I wouldn't have read a single one of those books short of Hitchhikers. Isn't reading supposed to be an enjoyable recreational passtime? So why bog yourself down in that load of antiquated rubbish. Bring on the trashy novels! and bring on the flames and disowning by mchicago Sat, Jul. 26th, 2008, 09:54 pm
Jeeeeese. H. You-know-who on a unicycle that bloomin' hurt (*awaits lightening blot striking her down*) Well given the way my lucks been going I'm sure I can be excused for the blaspheming, I like to think its all of my piss poor Maltby luck deserting me before I join the lucky ranks of the Taylors. See mchicago for various details on what precisely hurt. I'm off to take more pain meds. Thank you all for your kind concern and well wishings, I am on the road to recovery and shall be drinking your tea again soon. Mon, Jun. 2nd, 2008, 02:08 pm

Proffy M is attempting to arrange my project viva for 11th may. My first exam is Protein Engineering on the 14th followed by Drug Development 21st, Organic Compounds 23rd, Protein Structure and Chemistry 25th, Advanced Cell Biology 1st June and Cellular Signaling on the 4th. The marvelous Loucifer, oldballnchain, has finally taken leave of her senses and is getting married on the 5th and in celebration I'm getting stuffed into a dress *sulks*. Congrats to her for sure and see you at the reception. I'm figuring mental breakdown around the 27th May giving me time to recover for the last 2 exams. As of the 4th June I'm free!..free to look for a job anyway *sigh* Is this really all there is to life? Because quite frankly I'm disappointed and I'd like to lodge a formal complaint. In other news Wake. Study. Eat. Study. Eat. Study. WoW. Read. Sleep. Rinse and repeat. Theres a fair amount of avoidance of studying going on too, much like now. Can't really get my skirts blown up about Organic chemistry..call me crazy but its just not happening. Good news is its House tonight from 9. *glee*
Wed, Apr. 25th, 2007, 04:25 pm Tired.
See mchicago for details on his birthday shindig. If all goes pear shaped he arranged it so its not my fault. "accidental" loss of life will occur if anyone sets light to my back yard. Handed dissertation in 42 pages including appendices, references and index. Just waiting for the viva then its 6 exams between me and freedom. Times like this I wish I was an arts student. My flatmates other half has a sum total of 1 exam..which he has at the beginning of the exam period. He finishes before I start. Considering inviting all the arts students to a "study session" in the library then burning it down..with the added bonus that alledgedly if the library burns down within a month of finals everyone gets 2:1's. But then to be fair, what self respecting arts student would show up to a study session. *ducks flying shoes* Yeah yeah hate me all you want you know its true. 1 exam!...bastards. Thats enough of my stereotyping, i need a cup of tea to fortify myself for some gardening. K

Stil alive ( Some memes to prove it. )Stuff, stuff and stuff...yeah uh. Uni stuff, project stuff, career stuff, new housemate stuff, byebye mr dee shall miss havin' the place to myself ;), possible PhD stuff, ice-skating, Becca birthday - happy birthday, Dad birthday, Grandad birthday. Need to get home. Think my memorys getting worse, I'm forgetting stuff more and more often. That and my spellings gone to the dogs, can't do it to save my life, curse you appauling...apauling?..apaulling?..apaul aing? spelling. Maybe I'm forgetting more because I'm trying to remember more? Dunno, probably losing my mind. Not that there was all that much there to begin with ;o) Quite how I'm ever going to pass and get out of this place is beyond me, ah well I'll manage. So yeah, still alive. So there.
Mon, Jan. 8th, 2007, 06:07 pm I'm not real?
Don't worry, I'm just a figment of your imagination you sick fuck you.
Wed, Dec. 13th, 2006, 02:36 pm Ouch.
Still alive. ( *Snigger* ) And theres my memes caught up on. Next move 3CO3 studying. First CAP then the world! Ahahaha... P.S First person to comment gets a cookie!
...ooooooooooooo...!!eleven!1! Gah..GAH! Just had a coursetest on the top floor of CMP..10 o clock on a Friday morning? What the hell were they thinking? That I could just about take but I stood for 30 minutes at the bus stop before 2 buses came along making me 5 minutes late followed by the sprint from the bus stop to CMP then up 6 or so flights of stairs making me 5 more minutes late and an asthmatic wheezy mess. Busses every 10 minutes?! HA! By jiggery someone shall pay for this and it's not just going to be my score! Its just as well its not a negative marking test or I'd be in the minus numbers..bastards *muttering unbecoming a lady*..twatting arseholes. Not happy. Meeting at 12, a lecture at 1 then I think I might take a little bit of time out of my day to head on down to First Bus head quarters...with a flamethrower. Might make me late for the train though and I fear mchicago wouldn't stick around whilst I did my jailtime...which I'd do gladly at this point, useless pusnuggets. His parents certainly wouldn't approve..think mine would though. *stomp* Kaz

I can't actually remember when I last did a post detailing what I've been upto but needless to say its been a while. So, what have I done...uhhh not a lot actually..watched many cool movies, and many crap ones. Finished the project from hell, well kindda. My profs not entirely sure whether I'm supposed to write the report or he is, he thinks its him and has told me not to worry about it so i'm expecting an email anytime sayin "by the way the write ups yours and its due in first of november" Thanks! Handed in some coursework and taken a coursetest (84.6% - rocking the Protein Structure and Chemistry) ( Uni Stuff )Been home, come back, had a hair cut, gotten older..speaking of which my little sisters' going to be 18 next month how old does that make me feel?! had renticle visit, been for drinks, had my ass handed to me at pool, wowed, inadvertantly caused a miniwowwar, read a lot, made pumpkins :D, been to le cinema, slept lots, been to yorkshire and met J's relatives...though i'm not sure whether i've posted about that already. I dunno, my days are bleeding into one giant memory and i can't distinguish what happened when anymore but thats stuff anyway. Thanks to people for coming to birthday thing, i realise its horrendously late but I've been kindda busy. So uhh thanks, specially to mchicago for arrangement fu, also sommitrealweird and nimhling who travelled far to make it. And to beccus who i'm pretty sure must have had a hand in the arrangement...not that J's not fully capable its just there were no technical hitches..sorry dear. Umm yeah thats probably about it, I bet theres something else I'm forgetting but ahwell who cares anyway? No one really reads these update on what i'm doing type things anywho...i can type anything I want down here cos you all gave up around the uni waffle..kumquats, fishy kumquats, with chocolate sauce and gherkins. Master chef me...i live in your eyes! Gotta love Bill Bailey. Mmmm well bye then, Kaz P.S Still alive.
