Roxy acts up whilst I act my mental age!

So here is a rarity and possibly the most pointless/uninteresting fact to start a blog with for anyone who is avidly reading these words- This blog actually started out on paper hand written.

Yea not even that exciting in is? The only reason that it has started this was is because it is 11:30pm on Friday 27th October and I happen to be in a snowified York for the weekend. I'm not sure how much will be handwritten because my wrist is going through an 'I hate Katy' phase which means I can't write much. But yes, that isn't the main reason

^^ Turns out that this is where I wrote up to with before my wrist died\the cold descended upon me and I forgot about my blog again until 30 seconds ago.

I am now about to answer the questions you have probably not asked of some of the things I said above.

WHY WAS I NOT USING A COMPUTER TO TYPE?
Well, I'd rather brilliantly left my computer in Lincoln. Both of them. Because that is how special I was being on Friday. To be fair though I was slightly stressed out by Foxy Roxy, whom decided to not work at all on Friday. I was severely unimpressed by this.

I'd decided that I'd go get my car on Friday at 4pm after my seminar instead of waiting till 6 to set off. It is quite a walk to my car from campus. Got to her, got in and turned the key in the ignition. Nothing, at all. Cue me shouting at my car, because obviously that works! Once I'd gotten over shouting at the car, I decided that maybe I should call the AA, seen as I have been a member since before I was born. But in a fit of brilliance I had left my purse, with the AA card in it, in my room at uni.

An hour later and returning to the car I managed to ring the AA, whom promptly attempted to fix my car. Failed because the blot had seized and instead valiantly charged the battery to the point I could return to York to get my battery fixed.

You would think at this point I would have established that maybe I should have stayed in Lincoln for the weekend and gotten my car fixed in Lincoln.

Nope, I decided I wanted to get home, and get home I should. Even though I didn't even know if I had enough petrol and was told to not stall the car or turn the engine off. That was a highly entertaining drive back to York, made it one piece and only nearly stalled the car once.

And in a massive anti-climax to that story. All  I needed was a new battery for the car. Which I didn't have to pay for WIN!

So apart from car dramas, this was also the week in which I have this special event called my birthday, which to the surprise of those who didn't know, I share with the siblings. They happen to be 2 years older than me. Which means, no matter how old I feel, I know of two people who are always going to be older than me :-)

So yes, I turned 7(25) on the 24th October, which of course meant it was time to party. And party in 'mature' style I did the night before at Playzone. With several good friends. It was a good night. Although I'm sure we all felt under dressed when the bus full of onesie wearing people turned up! Still it made the night fun.

My birthday proceeded to occur with being rudely awoken by my sister, then mother, which was ok really. And then sauntering to Costa with Lauren and Emma for a giant Bourbon and coffee/hot chocolate before Emma left. The Lauren and I proceeded to go up to the Cathedral. Before returning to the flat to discover that my flatmates had decorated the flat for my birthday and giving me presents (which I was not expecting!) I then proceeded to spend the night waltzing around the flat in my cat onesie!

Needless to say, very little uni work got done this week. Which I should probably be worried about given that I have 1500 words due in this coming week!

Sadly I have ended this week with a cold which is not fun. I swear I must complain loads about them, so apologies to any and all who will get annoyed with my 'cold woe' tales. I know they are not very exciting. It was also annoying driving back to Lincoln with a blocked nose. Because I wanted to sneeze all the time.

(Just a heads up if you have read to here- This blog was finished in October, but not published till a week after I finished writing it, not sure why to be honest.)
