Take one step forward, slide two steps back...

Well. Not really. I was convinced I'd finish Halo last night and then it took me forever to get past one part, which, admittedly, was a tricky part but still. -_- Need to teach myself not to sleep again I think. There's one last snag that I'm trying to find a way past and then it's pretty much plain sailing till the end. She says.

Sorry I vanished last night. Turning the 'net off to make myself fic apparently freaked it out - turned it back on later and it didn't work. Seems to have sorted itself out again though, after a few cautious kicks pokes. Wireless internet may be fun but damn is it temperamental. -_- I miss my brother's super-fast internet. Now *that* was awesome.

'rents are insisting that I am slobbing out this summer. Pointing out that I've been to two capital cities and I'm getting less than eight - usually less than seven - hours sleep a night because I'm trying to do stuff doesn't seem to have impressed them, since they don't class 'writing' as work unless I can sell it. -_- I swear, they'd rather I was going out every night getting drunk and starting fights, just because it classes as 'leaving the house'. Still, only about a month and a half till I get back to Lancaster. And okay, that really doesn't sound that long all of a sudden. o_O

Okay, off in search of breakfast now I've caught up with f-list, and then to work on fic and the snail mail I need to send everywhere. Suddenly realised how close liroa15's birthday is and after the minor panic of 'ohshitI'vemissedANOTHERbirthday' was soothed am trying to work out how much of the stuff I've accumulated to send will fit in the envelope. -_- They need to make fatter envelopes.

Okay, think organised, organised...

Helen one thing I have learnt is that nothing goes to plan no matter how much or little you sleep!! Tried it myself a dozen times and it still hasn't worked.

Oooo...I want your bro's super fast internet connection too. Tempreamental is not the word for wireless internet, it is more like a load of F**KING Bollox!! I can never tell when mine is gonna work or when it is gonna switch itself off. I tell you, technology advances these days and they still can't get the simplest of technology rite!

Tell your parents that there is nothing wrong with lazing about the house. If I could do all the time i would. They just have to remember that this summer you could have written something that is gonna make u famous, and in turn pay for them to retire. If that doesn't make them stop and think then you'll just have to protest and tie yourself to your desk (making sure u have plenty of coffee and snacks within reach). Btw read some of your tennis slash on Play Suspended, that is some pretty racy stuff, well done my girl. See if I was any good at writing and less lazy I could write somthing like that, my head is full of wondrous things. But I suppose if I spilt them on a page i'd probably lose my crazy genius.

Jealous of you and your breakfast, I have been up since 7.30am playing The Legend of Zelda-Minish Cap on my DS and i am only just surfacing to get myself some tasty breakfasty treats of my own.

I'll have to post u a card with my new address on it so I can write to you as well.

Ciao

*g* I had a moment of that OH SHIT, I missed their birthday too. *nods* It happened when I realized Monday was Roger's birthday and for some reason I had it set in my mind that their birthday was his birthday... *sighs* I must write fic for them, since actual presents won't happen until much, much later. :-)
