    <content type="html">Well, my car is back in the garage again, head gasket has decided to blow on me, plus I think there is a leak in the coolant system somewhere... thats £200+ down the drain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bloody DVD player has decided to stop working, thats another £90.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VCR is chewing more tapes than normal lately:  £35&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On a lighter note, got Sam a "Chinese Water Dragon" for xmas.  (for those who are going 'A what???', heres a picture of one: &lt;a href="http://www.nitrophotos.com/mu12.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.nitrophotos.com/mu12.jpg&lt;/a&gt;).  Its really cute, nervous, etc.... however don't go rushing out to buy one...  cost a fortune for everything (vivarium, lamps, electrics, litter, food, etc, etc).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got myself a nice little project underway also.  [Cue Flashback]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At work and my supervisor is stressing over his laptop.  He cant seem to get it to work, so I offered to take it to the shop and take a look at it.  Gives me everything, leads, XP, etc.  Anyway, when i get to the shop, the boss starts ranting and raving.  Turns out that not only was it an illegal copy of Windows XP, but it was copied from the company.  EEK!  So anyway, my supervisor isnt happy with me now, and .....  bah, fuck it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, ive got my project to work on, will keep me happy and will rake in the cash when its done.  Woohooo :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, that's probably it from me until after xmas... working most of it :(  Anyone reading this, I hope you have a nice holiday and stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Merry New Year!!! :)</content>

    <content type="html">Back in the 70's and 80's the top hit show for children was a weird thing called "Rainbow".  Anyway, cutting a long story short, I found a clip of one of the earlier episodes... now, at a 'mature' age, i can see that it wasnt ALL for kids at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I urge you to watch this and see for yourself the sexual innuendo that we were fed as children.  Enjoy :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.rainbow.arch.scriptmania.com/rainbow_tv_episode.html"&gt;http://www.rainbow.arch.scriptmania.com/rainbow_tv_episode.html&lt;/a&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">I admit that recently I have been neglecting that which brews inside me... almost to the point of uncontrollable inner rage at times  (nothing physical and outward... more an inner battle).  But despite that, a few .... feelings (??) have brought back something which I thought I had lost.  My mind has been clouded by the need for financial security and success in the workplace, not that that is a bad thing, after all my family comes before everything, but I realise that I cannot ignore that which will not lay dormant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, enough crypticness....  Time for some brief random feeling quotes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Change is coming, something small, however.  A small change which will more than likely spiral either way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I found a great 'get-rich' scheme... its call:  Rob a bank.. lol, jk.  Actually, ive been considering getting an investment.  Some nest-egg to safe-guard me against our frail pension crisis.  Would be nice to say I own a percentage of a company lol.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, my mind is skipping again.  A broken television..... or a hyperactive monkey flipping the channels.... bleh, i'll post more later probably.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I HATE MY CAR... ITS BREAKING ALREADY :(</content>

    <lj:music>Korn - Right Now</lj:music>
    <content type="html">A while ago, i did a personality test (cant remember the link), and it said that I matched the "Mastermind" personality.  So rare is this type that approximatly 1% of the population fall into it.  lol,  Anyway, here is a summary of the mastermind personality architype:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of the four aspects of strategic analysis and definition, it is the contingency planning or entailment organizing role that reaches the highest development in Masterminds. Entailing or contingency planning is not an informative activity, rather it is a directive one in which the planner tells others what to do and in what order to do it. As the organizing capabilities the Masterminds increase so does their inclination to take charge of whatever is going on. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is in their abilities that Masterminds differ from the other Rationals, while in most of their attitudes they are just like the others. However there is one attitude that sets them apart from other Rationals: they tend to be much more self-confident than the rest, having, for obscure reasons, developed a very strong will. They are rather rare, comprising no more than, say, one percent of the population. Being very judicious, decisions come naturally to them; indeed, they can hardly rest until they have things settled, decided, and set. They are the people who are able to formulate coherent and comprehensive contingency plans, hence contingency organizers or "entailers." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Masterminds will adopt ideas only if they are useful, which is to say if they work efficiently toward accomplishing the Mastermind's well-defined goals. Natural leaders, Masterminds are not at all eager to take command of projects or groups, preferring to stay in the background until others demonstrate their inability to lead. Once in charge, however, Masterminds are the supreme pragmatists, seeing reality as a crucible for refining their strategies for goal-directed action. In a sense, Masterminds approach reality as they would a giant chess board, always seeking strategies that have a high payoff, and always devising contingency plans in case of error or adversity. To the Mastermind, organizational structure and operational procedures are never arbitrary, never set in concrete, but are quite malleable and can be changed, improved, streamlined. In their drive for efficient action, Masterminds are the most open-minded of all the types. No idea is too far-fetched to be entertained-if it is useful. Masterminds are natural brainstormers, always open to new concepts and, in fact, aggressively seeking them. They are also alert to the consequences of applying new ideas or positions. Theories which cannot be made to work are quickly discarded by the Masterminds. On the other hand, Masterminds can be quite ruthless in implementing effective ideas, seldom counting personal cost in terms of time and energy&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taken from:  &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://keirsey.com/personality/ntij.html"&gt;http://keirsey.com/personality/ntij.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">Council tax, Housing, Social Security, Rent, Tax Credits, ARGH!!!!  Ive really had enough.  I want to be 13 again, no worries about finance... because money grows from your parents pockets :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A shine of light through the financial problems though, the other day my boss came into my office and closed the door.  Immediatly i start shitting myself.  (He's the type of boss that doesn't have any facial expressions so its hard to read what he is thinking).  This is how the conversation went:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Boss: "Matt, have you got a minute, id just like to have a quick word with you".  I feel my pants filling up heh.  He then says:  "I realise that when you first joined us, you wanted to go into programming."  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To which i said, rather stutteringly, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Me: "Its an ambition of mine, not that I dont enjoy working as a technician.   Without meaning to be big headed, i feel very confident at programming in Visual Basic, however i still lack the skills required to work at industry standard."  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Boss:  "hmm, well we have a position in the programming department coming available and since you have the exact attributes we require in an employee, I think you would be more than suited to the position.  Would you like that?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I start getting paranoid at this point, wondering if he is trying to trick me into saying "I HATE DOIN TECHIE WORK!!!" or something :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Me:  "Well, im enjoying the work im doing at the moment, im learning an awful lot about the technical side of computing....."  boss interrupts&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Boss:  " *laughs*  Whatever you say isnt going to affect your position here.  We value your contributions to the company and realise that you may not wish to be stuck doing the same job forever.  Now we would much prefer to use your talents with the company than you getting bored and seeking employment elsewhere.  So, I take it you would like to progress?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Me:  "Definatly."  .... I started rambling a bit here&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Boss:  "Well, i have a few plans for the programming department.  Should be interesting.  Anyway, I'll let you get back to work"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So,......  i think the phrase "MO' MONEY, MO' MONEY, MO' MONEY" comes into play here.. heh, at least I know im doing something right :)</content>

I lost count of the number of beers/cocktails/liquid that was passed to me during the night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, im now 21.... officially a 'grown up' :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last night was good, from what I can remember.  When I try and think of a specific event all i can remember i stressing that Chicago wasnt going to be open because of the bomb explosion around the corner.  Some restaurant was blown to shit the night before.. debris everywhere, quite brutal.  No one injured though.... more than likely it was an insurance scam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, yeah, im rambling because im still suffering... i'll post more later when my memory is revived :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks to everyone for last night. it means a lot :)</content>

    <content type="html">Managed to get myself into a job, finally.  Working for a computer company near the trainstation.  Heh, i said that I would work a week on a voluntary basis so that I can get a feel for the job and that they can see what I can do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just finished my first day.... im mentally exhausted, my feet are killing me, im going crosseyed from staring at a monitor for too long and I HATE COMPUTERS!!  Its only when you're in the profession do you truely understand how annoying computers really are.  So anyway, first job, manually remove a virus from someone's PC...  diving straight into the nitty-gritty.  No sweat though, software is my thing and it only took me an hour to fully remove it from the system (Long time?  Did i mention that i had to 'manually' remove it... Norton couldnt remove it).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yeah, next was a PC that only started up when it felt like it.  All other times it just gave no signal to the monitor...  *sighs*  and here is where I spent the rest of my day.  Testing each and every part of the PC, replacing items, fiddling with wires.  Finally got it narrowed down to the power supply (it was a 200w PSU in a machine typically containing a 400w).  So yeah, replaced it with a 300w... nothing worked.  The power supply was fine, the motherboard and all peripherals got power, but nothing to the monitor.  The graphics card was fine... *shrugs*  I hate computers :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Goin for a coffee and some food and relax :)</content>

    <title>The joys of programming.... [/sarcasm]</title>

    <content type="html">Two and a half hours.... may not seem like much, but Two and a half hours sat in an empty office with the assistant manager getting more and more pissed off at how long you are taking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Created a database system for some IFA company a month ago however it was a fairly rushed project and there was a few major bugs which needed fixing so we had to install a new version.  We get there, everything goes fine, install it, run it, works perfectly (or so it seemed) when i realised that part of the debugging code (the stuff i wrote in to make sure everything works) was still in.   Ummmm, time to rebuilt the project.  Try again, install it, and the damn menu bar pops up with "DEMO" or "NOT REGISTERED" or some shit...  grinding my teeth, we try again, install it, works fine...  go to show the management reports, program stops responding....... realise that because one single line of code is missing the program wont function.  Cue boiling point...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, finally fix it, program runs, and the report screws up.  Instead of giving an output of the total mortgage values, it spurts out a random number:  7,956,584,264,923.00   7 TRILLION!!!?!??!??!?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, so we pack up and leave quickly.....  they're getting another update next week sometime heh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love it in a chaotic kind of way.  Hours spent sat infront of a machine, typing incomprehensible garbage onto the screen and running it....  lovely, works fine, not a problem in the world, then you go to install it at the clients place and everything that could go wrong does.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So yeah, the joys of programing... :)</content>

    <content type="html">And now.... im happy again..  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This really is weird.  I have been depressed many times in the past, but lately my emotions are so fucked up its untrue.  Up, down, up, down, up, down.  Bah.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ive applied for three more jobs.  One is an "IT Trainee" position.  If i get that I will be trained in a HNC IT engineering course as well as MCSE... only £9,000 per year but that would be a sweet ass position.  Another one which im really unsure of is "Trainee EPOS System Engineer".  I know that EPOS is short for Elecrtonic Point Of Sale, but apart from that im unsure what the job wants from me.  "I will be assisting the team leader in all configurations, installations, support and training in hospitably and retail units regionally and nationally"..... hell, if it means i get a job i'd work on Mars.  And finally, ive re-applied for the same job for a third time (they have still got it listed and when i asked the woman, she said "Send us your CV"... so  *shrugs*.   Marketing Database Administrator for PC World in Bury.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Daniel has been great for getting me out of my moods lately.  Usually we argue about something and toy-fight (for a 2 year old, he really is rough at times) and then thats it.  Heh, for about half an hour we were arguing about my neighbours seat outside their house.  Its a bench, but he insists its a chair so:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Me:  "Its a bench!!"&lt;br /&gt;Dan:  "A Chair!!"&lt;br /&gt;Me:  "Its a bench!!"&lt;br /&gt;Dan:  "A Chair!!"&lt;br /&gt;Me:  "Its a bench!!"&lt;br /&gt;Dan:  "A Chair!!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;over and over and over heh... Sam must be tearing her hair out :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Loved the storm yesterday.... all up until the point i stuck my head out the window and the lightning must have hit a house (or the TV arial) out the back.   All i saw was this flash of light, and three consecutive explosion sounds.  I was deaf for a good few minutes, nicely shook up and buzzing!!  I love storms :)</content>

    <content type="html">Eek!!  Its been a while since I posted here...  lets see if i can sum up everything thats happened recently heh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I passed my driving test!!!  Finally, third time of trying I now have my full UK drivers licence..  all i need now is a car to drive and a spare couple of grand to insure the damn thing, tax it, MOT, petrol, stereo, and fluffy dice :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ive been waiting now for 2 whole months for my landlord to sort out my roof.  During the bad storms we had ages ago, some slates came loose from my roof leaving a gaping hole. Luckily there hasnt been much rain this summer, however this week has seen quite a bad downpour and it started to seep into my son's bedroom.  Well, ive been on the phone constantly with my landlord trying to get him to get his arse into gear.... we have had to move my son's bed into our bedroom too because its that dangerous (the ceiling looks like its ready to fall down)..... hmmmmmm, do i smell.... yes it is, its the sweet smell of "COMPENSATION!!!!!".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Been working like a bitch too... finally got the programming project off the ground and installed (a few minor glitches, but everything works heh).  I hope that this job has a good future because its a nice step onto the ladder, however I must say, my rational mind is telling me to be careful, get a second job... yet my ambition is telling me:  "Dont fuck this up.  This is an opportunity and these things only come once in life".  *shrugs*  im sure i'll manage to pull something off heh.  That £2,000,000 property and the luxury sports car is coming ever closer heh. (Yes, im materialistic, so what... enjoy it while im alive, ive earned it heh).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh, and one more thing:  ENGLAND WAS ROBBED!!!  We should have won 2 - 1</content>

Just &lt;br /&gt;finished reading the &amp;quot;His Dark Materials&amp;quot; series. F0ckin ace! cant wait for the &lt;br /&gt;films&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;DVD in player:&lt;/b&gt; Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;• × • L A S T | P E R S O N • × • &lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hugged:&lt;/b&gt; Daniel&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;You imed: &lt;/b&gt;Dunno, lol, no one yet today.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;You yelled at: &lt;/b&gt;Daniel when he started his &amp;quot;No!&amp;quot; routine to everything :P&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;You kissed: &lt;/b&gt;Sam&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;• × • A R E | Y O U • × • &lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Understanding:&lt;/b&gt; I try to see both sides of an arguement before making a &lt;br /&gt;decision, however I also try to stay out of matters that do not directly affect &lt;br /&gt;me. I dont like being forced to take sides.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Open-minded: &lt;/b&gt;Kind of, however in certain things its nice to have proof, &lt;br /&gt;however I do have faith.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Arrogant&lt;/b&gt;: I try not to be, however I may come across as arrogant whilst &lt;br /&gt;being sarcastic.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Insecure&lt;/b&gt;: Sometimes, mostly paranoia though.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Random&lt;/b&gt;: I can do and say some very random things. Spontanousness is part &lt;br /&gt;of my humour whether you get it or not :P&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Hungry&lt;/b&gt;: Nope, just had brekkie&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Smart&lt;/b&gt;: Smartly attired? lol. Smart as in intelligent, then yes probably&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Moody&lt;/b&gt;: Quite.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Hard&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;working&lt;/b&gt;: I hate leaving things unfinished, and things that &lt;br /&gt;seem impossible I find it hard to let go and admit defeat.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Organized&lt;/b&gt;: To a point, however one can become TOO organised where it &lt;br /&gt;dominates their life. I am not like that. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Healthy&lt;/b&gt;: I wish, need to stop smoking&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Shy&lt;/b&gt;: Sometimes, I hate those uncomfortable silences where I dont know &lt;br /&gt;what to do or say&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Difficult&lt;/b&gt;: I dont know, maybe. Depends&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Attractive&lt;/b&gt;: In my own freakish way probably :)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Bored&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;easily&lt;/b&gt;: Yes&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Responsible&lt;/b&gt;: Sometimes, however immaturity is a nice break from &lt;br /&gt;responsibility. Id go more insane otherwise :)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Obsessed&lt;/b&gt;: Sometimes&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Angry&lt;/b&gt;: heh, sometimes :P&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sad&lt;/b&gt;: I have my ups and downs&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Happy&lt;/b&gt;: Sometimes. Get the picture.. i fluctuate depending on situation &lt;br /&gt;and mood&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Hyper&lt;/b&gt;: heh, definatly, sometimes&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Trusting&lt;/b&gt;: People confide in me, so yes i guess.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• × • W H O | D O | Y O U | W A N N A • × • &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Kill&lt;/b&gt;?: Pointless ignorant idiots who contribute nothing but suffering for &lt;br /&gt;civilisations.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Slap&lt;/b&gt;: hmmmm, shall i form a list? :)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Get&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;really&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;wasted&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;with&lt;/b&gt;?: People who understand my &lt;br /&gt;humour&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Get&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;high&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;with&lt;/b&gt;: Nick (treacle) definatly&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Talk&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;to&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;offline&lt;/b&gt;: Anyone&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Talk&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;to&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;online&lt;/b&gt;: Anyone&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sex&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;it&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;up&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;with&lt;/b&gt;: ?????&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;• × • R A N D O M • × • &lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the morning I am: &lt;/b&gt;Grumpy &lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Love is&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;quot;A method created by bank managers to make us all overdrawn&amp;quot; - &lt;br /&gt;A.J.

    <title>Sleep Survey</title>

    <updated>2004-06-04T11:01:14Z</updated>
    <content type="html">&lt;b&gt;1.What is your favorite sleeping position in bed?&lt;/b&gt;  Well, i start off on my back with my arms by my side or across my chest, i usually end up on my front though when i wake up :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;2. Do you prefer music to sleep to or just silence?&lt;/b&gt;  I went through a period where I couldnt sleep unless there was a noise in the background, however I have gotten used to it being silent now when I sleep...  Truth is though, if im tired, i will sleep anywhere in whatever condition :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;3. If you prefer music....what is playing?&lt;/b&gt; I prefer to listen to Euphoric music when sleeping.  Sacred Spirit is a favourite, Enigma another.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;4. Are you a sound sleeper or a light sleeper?&lt;/b&gt; A nuclear blast wouldnt wake me up :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;5. Do you sleep in the middle of the bed or on a specific side?&lt;/b&gt; I share a bed so i have my own side :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;6. Do you move when you sleep or hardly stir? &lt;/b&gt;  I used to move a lot, but its subsided now.  I found that I move a lot when ive had an intense dream usually.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;7. Is it difficult to sleep alone or do you enjoy it?&lt;/b&gt; Well, I love the extra space, but aside from that, its lonely in a big bed on my own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;8. How many pillows are on your bed that you use?&lt;/b&gt; Two, sometimes one or even none.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;9. What sheets do you prefer?&lt;/b&gt;  ummm, sheets that cover me.. ?  I dont care.  I love my duvet :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;10. How many hours do you devote to a full nights sleep for you?&lt;/b&gt;  As little as possible, time is money :)  I'll sleep when im dead.  J/k.  I can go anything between 1 hour to 14 hours depending on how tired/busy i am.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;11. Do your pets sleep on the bed with you if you have them?&lt;/b&gt;  No, there is barely enough room for my fat ass on the bed without having an animal share it too heh&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;12. What do you like to do in bed besides sleep?&lt;/b&gt;  Build a fort, trampoline, come on... seriously heh.  Sex and sleep, thats all its for :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;13. Do you take a drink with you to bed?&lt;/b&gt;  Horrible dry mouth in the morning, almost always have a drink with me&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;14. At what time do you usually awaken?&lt;/b&gt;  Usually when daniel wakes me up :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;15. What kind of bed do you sleep on?&lt;/b&gt;  A 'Silentnight' matress in a double bed.  Need to get a new one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;16. What is your dream bed?&lt;/b&gt; A big ass bed that fills the room and very very sturdy so i can play 'trampoline'! :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;17. Do you sleep clothed or unclothed?&lt;/b&gt;  Usually in my boxer-shorts (underwear for americans heh).  During summer i sleep naked&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;18. If you sleep clothed, what do you wear and why?&lt;/b&gt;  See Above&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;19. If you sleep unclothed, why?&lt;/b&gt;  Ditto :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;20. Where is your bed located in your room?&lt;/b&gt;  Umm, difficult to answer this.  Kinda centre room but against a wall, facing the window.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;21. If you could sleep with anyone, who would it be and why?&lt;/b&gt;  Anyone who does snore, or wouldnt wake me to inform me that im snoring :P</content>
