God today was DULL

Got up today around 12ish because Ben had woken up and began talking to Graham.
They came in late-ish last night from drinking in Glasgow.
I had started rendering Part Two of DaS Insanity. It's currently uploading now. Then I went to bed so I could wake up, watch it to check for fails and then upload. Or re-render. Usually I don't make errors before editing. I can do with very slight details, but these videos don't have much going into them. Although I'm gradually adding more... XD
I did mean to just save it, then go watch Torchwood. I was too tired in the end. So I just stuck it on render.
But anyway, the next day, I got out of bed when Graham had gone out into the living area for his phone call. He had come in and asked if he could turn off my laptop.
I quickly rushed over to make sure he didn't close it before I could check how long it had taken to render.
Part One, 8 minutes 45 seconds, took 3 hours, 59 minutes.
Part Two... 4 seconds? What?
Turns out... I had forgotten to uncheck "Render loop region" so I had a video clip, less than a second long. Great!
So I had to tell it to render again.
Because my laptop is pretty bad, that meant I couldn't do ANYTHING while it rendered. Otherwise I'd slow it down...
So I tried to sleep for a couple more hours. Didn't really get far... Graham and Ben buggered off to KFC or McDonalds to have lunch and I came back into the living area, made my lunch, marmite sandwich of course!
Sat down and checked the rendering...
I did open iTunes to listen to something. I think that may have slowed down the render a little. Doesn't matter, if it did, it only added like 20 minutes.
I texted Yasmin a little bit as well. Not my usual spamming for the whole day though. She was getting swamped in Asda. Apparently Sunday is a busy day? I guess it makes a bit of sense. So I've not chatted to her much today. Sadface.
I listened to HatFilms podcast because I've been behind on that as well. Have to download each episode though. iTunes doesn't do it right away any more. I'm on episode 4 now I think. I had to stop because Ben and Graham returned.
They have amusing episodes though... this episode is entitled "Toe Suck Fairy". They talked about a piece of news where a guy had a very weird foot fetish.
The episode before was "Dwarven Porn" because the Gordon Ramsey look-a-like, I've forgotten his name. He was a "dwarf" or "midget" what ever the name is, I really don't know what the non offensive name is... Little person? Anyway, that guy was also a porn star, but he died. He was found down a badger hole... That's incredibly weird, funny and sad. *I just listened to Episode 6 and this piece of news was made up!
They are relatively old podcasts though. Some time before December 2011.
Anyhoo, eventually Ben left to go home. Took his key this time.
I continued to wait for the video to render.
Graham sat on the floor for some reason, playing with his mac.
Eventually the video finished of course!
Part Two, 8 minutes 53 seconds, took 4 hours 25 minutes.
I went around YouTube a little before logging onto DanAndSimon and beginning uploading, It's currently at 43%, 277 minutes to go. I then opened sony vegas again, and began on DaS Insanity Part Three!
There is a couple bits in Part Three that I find hilarious. One is where I'm talking about a song I was reminded of at some point, and Dan pushes me onto the road! After my little, weird, "scream" our conversation went like:

Dan: I worry about you sometimes...
Me: ... And yet you push me onto the road?!
Admittedly there are no cars...

I just don't know why it's so funny to me!
Then there was a moment just after, Dan was talking in an Afrikaans accent. I said it was starting to sound Indian.
He proceeded to yell:
"FUCK YOU!"
And I said:
"Now that's definitely not an Indian Accent."

Just little moments in the show where we have some laughs.
There was a bit just after where we passed the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art. For some reason there is a statue of a guy who is sticking out of the ground.
Dan went to teabag him, and I pointed out the "nipples" on this guy, they're peperoni!
I inserted some text to say it was "tumorsyphilis-itis-otis"
I applaud those of you who understand it!

When I finished editing it, I opened a new vegas file to just put in footage for part four. Seems there will be 6 parts to this single night of mine and Dan's. Not much cut out which is probably why!
I think Part Six will be mostly us just talking near Dan's house.

Reminds me actually.
After my blog post last night, Eventually Yasmin and I got texting again and we ended up talking about the blog post I made where I said I'd be a deadbeat boyfriend. I still stand by that really but yeah. We ended up talking about relationships and stuffs.

Back on track anyway.
Semi spamming Yasmin again now actually. She's working still but she's tired and ill. I suggested she just leaves early because she's ill, but apparently there are 2 hours left in her shift.

Now I'm making this blog post and when I'm done. I will probably just continue listening to the HatFilms podcast while DaS Insanity Part Three renders. If I finish the ones that I've downloaded, (can't download more because internet is being used by uploading) I will probably listen to the When The Kids Go To Sleep (Shaycarl and Katielette's podcast) that I have yet to hear. And maybe then Rooster Teeth podcasts. Not listened to them for a long time so I have a lot to catch up on, but I don't know if they are all downloaded or not. So I may be limited again!
Meh.
I will go to bed eventually.

Graham says that leaving my laptop on all night is maybe not a good idea. But considering I use like 30p a day on this laptop, leaving it all night isn't too bad. Plus there is over £10 on the electricity and then there's meant to be £10 of emergency credit, although last time it seemed to only be £5. But anyway, that is more than enough to last until Tuesday after next at this slow rate.
Hope that Part Two uploads before I go to bed though so I don't have to leave my phone out all night too. How will I spam Yasmin when it's late?! HOW?! XD

Weird thing happened earlier actually. Graham moved something, and we heard like, a shatter and crash. Apparently this painting on the floor by the boiler, the glass frame shattered.
According to... someone. It shattered because it's so cold!
I don't know how accurate that is honestly... Heating up then rapid cooling would make it smash. But never mind.
I got called by Graham earlier. He had texted his mum saying how the frame of the painting she had done for Andrew had shattered due to the cold.
So she replied saying she was sending Graham money to put on heating. So the heating is on now. Made a bit of a difference. Not massive though :c

Think that's it really. I may have a bowl of cereal. Not actually had dinner but I really don't feel like cooking chicken or pork of sausages or bacon and making the flat super smokey AGAIN. Luckily we're getting more tin foil tomorrow so we can use the oven again after that!
May have a hot chocolate too actually.

So today consisted of, rendering a video and having nothing to do. Once done, uploading then editing the next. And then making this blogpost. Being unable to text Yasmin like, at all because she wouldn't be able to respond and it would be silly to be bugging her so much. And all that made today, SUPER dull.

So that's it from meeeee. See you later guys.
Much love to you all <3
Byebye!
