Wankers. It was their mistake. Amazon would've totally let us get away with it.

In other news, I knew I recognised the woman snogging Dylan Moran in The Actors. However, it is kind of humiliating that it took me the whole movie (which she is in a lot so that's no excuse) AND a trip to IMDb to realise that she's Lena Headey. Also known as that woman who plays Sarah in The Sarah Connor Chronicles, which I've been watching with great enjoyment for the last month and a half.
I used to pride myself on this sort of recognition. Possibly my mind is going in my old age. Ngh.
ON A RELATED TOPIC. It's a good thing I didn't have to answer the door for the post this morning, because I heard it arrive just as I was stepping out the shower. Possibly the postman would've been surprised to see a flailing, semi towel-clad and dripping wet girl fling open the door and yell "NEED POST GIVE NOW NOW NOW!"
Which is why it's an excellent thing that our Dylan Moran tickets fit through the letterbox. ^_^
It's probably easiest for me to hang on to them instead of handing them out to individual people but on one condition: it is my job to bring the tickets, but it is all of your jobs to remind me. Preferably several times, starting about three days before and leading up until the moment just after we've left my house. This is your job, should you choose to accept it. No obligation. Except, you know, then I forget the tickets and we'll be forced to gatecrash the theatre and probably get arrested. No biggie. ;-)
Now I would just like my Wimbledon tickets, although I don't think they get posted for another month. I'm pretty sure they fit through the letterbox too. Good news for our postman all round, especially since yesterday he actually gave us a letter addressed correctly to a lady who lives two doors away. It wasn't even in another pile of post; it was just that letter, by itself, through our door. I wouldn't like to imagine what a sudden shock would do to someone that utterly competent.
~~
I'm now off to update my CV and start trawling job websites, which I was meant to do all day and things (namely laziness and freaking out about a certain, necessary phone call) conspired to put off. Not that I'll be leaving my room much for the rest of the night anyway, so at least it'll give me something to do.
