Yes, i know it's been a while but i haven't had the time lately, and when it's not been time it's been having the energy, and when it's not the energy it's "being bothered".

BUT, today is one of those days where i must so i will.

On the 24th my pre-birthday shaped up good, not only had i had THE transformer i've wanted for 17 years+ I also recieved a pressie from Kim, a rather amusing t-shirt with my screename persone "Bones" (of Star Trek) on it saying: "Dammit Jim, i'm a doctor!" Which cheered me up no end, especially when i tried not to start laughing uncontrollablly down the street where people might think i'm nutss...

If that wasn't enough i recieved another gift through the post in the afternoon (A few hours before work), much too my surprise and it was from kim again!!! A cuddly E.T. (LOL) and a packet off swiss chocolate almond coffee

25th march 2004 and i am one year older, w00t. Recieved an IM at The Last Outpost from Kim asking me to be on MSN after 1am my time, to which i obliged. SUprisingly it wasn't just Kim it was Lust, DW, Lattrx & co and i wondered how many were on.

They begun telling me there was a hate board against me but by the way they were replying on MSN it was obviously fake simply because you are all TERRIBLE liars! You'd make lousy actors! But there was a board, a birthday board that was in fact more overwhelming than anytyhing i could've imagined. When the music started i all most welled.

I guess it's because all my other birthdays have passed unoticed that i couldn't care less about them (Especially if you have a small family and lack of parents), but this birthday was so great it's going to be one i WILL remember for many years unlike the rest. I will be able to look back on that one and recall it, thanks to each and every one of my online friends.

After work i drank copious amounts of cider and kept on talking to my friends on MSN, but after a couple of hours i was very merry and making many typos before passing out much later.

26th march 2004 - Put TLO in maintenence mode for the next two days whilst i gave it the new look (To prepare for the 2nd anniversary of the forum). Did 3/4 of the icons but left the majority of work till saturday. Just spent the night after work watching my favorite programs on TV, although i did feel a little lost during the day, & night without TLo, despite having it to "work on".

27th march 2004 - Did the majority of Work on TLO on a lazy saturday, despite saying i'd do the front page last i did do it. Did all the rest of the icons all the rest of the heads & footers for inside the board before re;enting and doing the front page too. Only late at night did i do all the "back to top" codes on each of the forums (A code that shows an image and when you click on it to takes you back to the top of the forum, like scrolling up with your mouse only with the click of one button.

The majority of the saturday was lazy and boring though.

28th march 2004 - 2nd Anniversary of The Last Outpost! Waited all day at the forum but only Kim really showed up at first. Then spent the rest of the day waiting in hope others might turn up as their morning (my afternoon progressed but noone did.

In the end i gave up (especially as how long i was in the chatroom) and kept going on and off as i spent most of the day waiting in vein hope some members might be around. It wasn't till very late my time that things started to pick up and it wall went by happily enough, better than last year but still a bit slow overall.
