Update

- I just registered for the 6km run of the Kiel.Lauf on 11 September! Yeah, I don't know what came over me either. :p *lol* I actually wasn't out jogging at all since... well, June or July last year, I think. O_O Haha! Really need to get into it again soon, I guess. ;-) But this is about the distance I ran back then, so it should be doable... Btw, not counting that one teeny-tiny junior triathlon I did when I was young (in my teens? I don't really remember...), this will be the first official sports event I'm actively participating in! Quite exciting! :D

- I think I'm finally rid of my neck problems. Hooray! \o/ Or at least for now...

- I'm going to see "Crazy For You" again on Sunday. <3 *yay* Unfortunately it'll be the last time though. *sniffles* Apart from Sunday there are only 2 more dates for it this month (both of which I can't go to) and then it's run at our opera house closes. :-(

- I'm officially in love with Never Mind The Buzzcocks and Simon Amstell right now. <3 I had only seen a couple of random NMTB episodes before, on account of some of the guests, and always really enjoyed it, so I started watching the show properly last week. Amstell's time as host (series 19-22) that is. I know many people don't like him and/or prefer Mark Lamarr (who I don't know)... But I think Simon's great! Deal with it! :p
I definitely need to make some space for some of the awesome NMTB icons that [livejournal.com profile] miss_jaffacake made (yours are the best!). :D I think with icons of my favourite quotes alone I could use up at least half of my total icon space... *lol*

I really liked Simon Amstell on Nevermind the Buzzcocks! Much preferred him to Mark Lamarr who I think became a bit of a pretentious douchebag towards the end of his run.

Have you ever seen any of Simon Amstell's previous show - "Pop World"? That show was brilliant when he was on it.

Glad your neck is better!

Quite glad you liked Simon too. :-)
Like I said, I don't know Lamarr at all. I have one of his episodes on my computer though because Ben Miller's a guest in it, so I'll check him out sometime (Lamarr, obviously, not Ben *lol*).

No, sadly I haven't seen anything of Pop World. :-( Maybe I can find bits on YouTube...

Thank you! Me too! *g*

Mark Lamarr's thing was just insulting the guests (and not in a loving way like Simon does), towards the end I just found him downright rude.

Pop World was cool - you could tell Simon really loved pop music even if he made fun of it sometimes. I hope you enjoy it if you find some clips.

Let's hope the pain doesn't come back again!
