h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I have like a hundred or so videos all bought in the last 2 years, [not including things like 'The Care Bares' etc of my childhood of which there are about another 30 - 50]. I bought myself a new lamp and a beard-trimmer and few other bits and bobs for Christmas. I spent about £100 or so on gifts for mother over Christmas and New Year, but she gave me some money for me to put towards TV. I only have about 20 DVDs not including the four B5 Box sets, all I think were bought this year, I recently bought a fairly decent leather overcoat, because I couldn't bring myself to take my cashmere overcoat to the drycleaners if I didn’t have a replacement coat to hide inside when out and about. I just spent a ridiculous about of money of a bat'leh [£125, I think that £90 would have been about right,] next week I'm intent on buying that 21" screen TV. And at some point if I can give up smoking I will be spending money on a *real* Katana, not the overwhelming exquisite ancient ones that cost £1500 or more, but one with a proper blended carbon steel blade, rather than a stainless steel blade that snap off at the hilt if you had cause to use it to cleave someone with a thick skull. That will cost betwixt £150 and £250.
I'd have even more material items if I didn't insist on getting taxis when I can't face walking [usually due to psychological sh!t but sometimes I'm just being lazy].
I'm spending £5 to £10 quid less a week on smoking that had been in last few months of 2004, the mess over HB was sorted in December and I got £250 back from SOHA [landlord] and a 80% reduced service charge. And not managing a fairly long-distance relationship I’m not paying to travel or feed another person. Also at some point last year I went onto higher rate Incapacity. Of course I can't continue to spend like this. That is because I'm still wasting money on cigarettes. I need to get over the psychological addiction to cigarette by emphasising the benefits of having some tangible to show for the money at the end of the day. I always feel incredibly guilty about spending money on anything that isn't a bargain, which also ties in with hating giving money to tobacco giants and the stinging tax on the things. I want to direct the money both towards improving my mother's quality of life and also to having more of a social life. Meaning more trips a Brighton nightclub with 'friends' from Sproutlore and more of the events that Sproutlore is affiliated with. Also when I get out of that SOHA hellhole I'll need funds to make what the council gives me into a *home*.
Sorry, I'm waffling and not making sense and boring with details you need not and likely would rather not know.

"I only have about 20 DVDs"

Know how many I've got? One. One measly DVD.

"when I get out of that SOHA hellhole"

You still living with that psycho hosebeast?

I'd none 'til I bought that Babylon 5 box set just a few weeks ago...

Yes, I'm still living in the same house as that 'Completely Useless Nauseating Twit'.

I've got more housing points, than the average homeless person, so it's just a question of waiting for suitable flat to become available in the area.

Hang in there...


... and if you'll help me with shipping, I'll send you some stuff that I've accumulated during the two years on my own that I have no idea what to do with. Lobster pot, anyone?

I've got nowhere to put what have now. Which reminds me that in the coming weeks I need to decide what to do with the stuff in my old room here. Which I haven't slept in for about two years, maybe longer... I sleep on the floor in here, can't bare being in my old room.

Argh! Why the bloody hell did I spend £125 on a fecking bat'leh?!! I'm damned fool.
