Magnoliophyta

I've got some fresh fun with my brother letting me borrow PGR4 from yesterday, and in one afternoon I managed to unlock 13 of 50 achievements, clocking a nice 260 gamer points. The game is good fun and very well designed, and for the £20 that it is now available at I am tempted to buy it as there is so much to do, but for now I'm content with it being a very borrowable game. I am also still of course trundling through Forza, and with Bertie ordering me, Andrew and Sam all a copy of Need For Speed: Carbon for multiplayer lulz, I know I'll have my hands full for a while.
An online buddy by the alias of Nimmo has also proven his immense generosity for a second time by telling me he'll post me Eternal Sonata to borrow for a while. He first made his name by incredibly buying me a small statue of Rei that I had expressed interest in for my birthday a few years ago, this is especially amazing as back then I had said almost nothing to him and basically didn't know him at all. Even after so long it has still remained one of my favorite character statues and about a year ago I bought the matching Asuka to go with it, during all that time I have never forgotten his incredible generosity. I definitely owe him.

Work was rather testing today. With clear skies the temperature plummeted and froze my hands, for the money I'm being paid I don't particularly think it's worth the physical pain I'm being subjected to, but I really don't want to quit so soon after having started and let the guys down.

After work I went into town and bought Nicola some flowers, I decided on a bunch of freesias with a couple of white roses, she seemed to like them so that made me happy.
Now I can get into bed and start reading Lolita all cosy and content.
