Kirsty Likes To...

Yes, this is another meme. In my defence, I have really awful hayfever today, it's pissing down with rain, the work canteen has run out of shreddies (scandal!), and I have to drive to London tonight to give a presentation for the MA. Moan, moan, moan. Also, neither Michael Sophocles or Helene Whatshername got booted off The Apprentice last night, so I'm Officially In The Huff.

Raef in a bearsuit was, however, a wonderful moment.

Anyhoo, I spotted this meme over at Little.Red.Boat, and thought I'd give it a bash. What you have to do is type "Your name likes to" into Google and post the results. More amusing than it sounds, I promise. Or maybe it's not, either way, I've done it, and you don't have to read it. Though I might cry if you don't.

So. Kirsty likes to:

• ...shower naked.  I cannot deny the veracity of this claim. When I shower, I do tend to take my clothes off. Doesn't everyone?
• ...to think of herself as a vixen, though inside she knows her sexual bravado with men and her awkward, less functional relationships with women... and then it tails off! What about my awkward relationships with women!? I don't think I have awkward relationships with women. Maybe some women, but not because they're women. Also, I am quite aware of my non-vixen status. So. This statement is basically false.
• ...to be independent from her twin. I'm not a twin, but if I were, I'm sure I would want to assert my individuality at times.
• ...to kiss me. Me? I like to kiss me? That is physically impossible, you do realise that, don't you?
• ...to comment on interior layouts. Hmm, I've not really thought too much about this. I suppose I do, should said layout move me in enough to comment. Much like the wedding dresses did on The Apprentice last night - some were properly hideous. Anyway, that's another story.

After this point, it all descends into variations on the "likes to" theme, and I'm nothing if not a meme purist.

In other news, a new Oxford book blogger has recently sprung up. Go and say hello to The Oxford Reader. Merci.

Those dresses were awful weren't they... the black ones? I'd go for the Bhs ones every time!

The Kirtys of the world are clearly an excitement-loving bunch. With the possible exception of interior-layout Kirsty, although, you know, whatever floats your boat.

Aargh, Kirsty. Spoiler alert!!!
I've just got up after a nightshift to watch The Apprentice. I've avoided bbc news and entertainment pages and tv forums but thought I'd look at my other regular haunts before starting the BBC iplayer.

Now I know that wee tool Michael didn't get fired.

Crap! Sorry Christine! :(

No worries Kirsty:) That wee 'dum dum' will get chucked out next week. I'm sure of it.

Hi Kirsty: I'm posting your blog address for a forgotten book tomorrow (US eastern time). If you're not going to have one up, please advise and I'll remove it. Thanks, Patti

[Kirsty]

Patti - I will email you, but the blog is now up. Thanks.

Christine - Oh I do hope so. Funnily enough, the other day I was talking to someone who went to school with him, and what we see on the prog is exactly what he is really like. Christ. I'm supporting Raef! And I can't stand Gobby Claire.
