And that's when Faye learned to count backwards! 6!

Hello lovely people,

I feel so smart now that I've learned to count backwards. I started at 7 and I really wasn't sure if I bwas able to make it to the end which I know is 0, but it seems that today, I've made it to 6.

So, what kind of countdown is this? And what am I doing during this whole countdown? For those of you that can't be bothered to read my previous postings, I'm going on a trip to Liverpool in, 6 days (ooers!).

Once I'm there I will be seeing my favorite band, *cough* the Fratellis *cough*, preform, twice. I will also be seeing some of my great Fratellis forum friends while I'm at it. And in Nottingham.

I tend to write Nottingham like Nothingham, but I don't mean no offence. I'm just stupid.

Anyway, what am I doing on countdown day number 6? I was at university first doing absolutely nothing that has to do with the countdown. Worked hard though, so patted myself on the shoulder. After university I went and sat in the sun because the sun is very nice and shiney today. Wind was less kind and gave me goosebumps. Now I'm back home.

Day 6 of the countdown days includes doing the laundry so that I can pack the clothes I need for when I go. Two laundries in one day because I was rather behind, which I think is a given when you're a student. I wish the weather forecasts would be reliable though so I could decide what to take with me right this instant, but no, I'll hve to wait till monday to be sure.

I also pre-ordered the UK-version of the Fratellis' second album 'Here We Stand', twice. Why twice? Because I'm a fanny. I'll probably end up ordering whatever version that's released beside the UK version too. And the singles, and oooooh!

Speaking of laundry, I found the craziest selection of random socks in my laundry basket. I don't think any of them match. So yes, I fear I must start a new fashion and wear unmatching socks. Very punk.

I'm also getting a haircut on saturday, so maybe I should dye it bright pink, since I'm going punk. Nah, there is too much red in my wardrobe to dye my hair pink. I'm thinking sort of copper-with-highlights. Yes I do.

For now, that's all you're gonna get for this episode of Faye's Fabulous Countdown.

Bye!

Countdown! 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0!

We have lift off? No, of course not, we're not at NASA, silly people!

Actually, the countdown number for today should be 7 as in one week I will be flying to Liverpool to see gigs and do Beatles-related things like a proper tourist should.

Had I mentioned that besides Liverpool I'll also be in Nottingham and in Manchester? If not, well there you go. I am well excited and have yet to start thinking about what to pack and what not to pack. Finding it rather challenging to be honest. Can't decide between videocamera or photocamera. Knowing me, I will end up taking both of them.

Since I've got to make sure I have enough things to bother, eh, entertain you with for the remaining 6 days, this is all I'm going to write. Also I doubt anyone will read this in the first place.
