Slightly-less-hasty-than-intended bodge job of a new LJ layout, because it was really time to take the Christmas/New Year one down. Wish I had time for an icon overhaul but then I'd be going into work in PJs with unwashed hair and considering it's not my last week anymore (contract extension 'til March 31st ftw!), I should probably make an effort to appear at least vaguely presentable.

Also, hello LiveJournal. I am not ded. At some point I will finish memes and maybe post fic extracts and flail over the amazinghood of Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic apparently deciding they no longer want to hide their deep and touchy-feely love for each other. However, now I have to go and get ready for the amazing job that lets me go in half days twice a week and still pays me the same. Which I have until the end of March. Win.

(Of course, that's assuming I can get to work with the killer fog that's been outside all morning. If this was an episode of Doctor Who, I'd have been eaten by the fog monsters hours ago.*




* As much as I like to think I'd be the plucky local girl who works out how to defeat the fog monsters with a handheld fan and some de-mister, I rather suspect I'd be the foolish local girl who disappears and the Doctor gets indigantly rageful about, before forgetting about the instant he spots something shiny.


edit: I've just remembered that last night, I dreamed that I bought a Kindle. Er. Wishful thinking there subconscious?

(I also dreamed that I found a hidden library beneath a folding piece of floor in a house we were renting; it was like a whole secret apartment full of books I wanted to read and squishy seats and with the door bricked up. I think perhaps it was my subconscious crossing the line of wishful thinking, into full on delusions.

It was a really beautiful library.)

It's not the keyboard of awesome and it's going to take a bit of getting used to new keys, again after laptop and then keyboard of awesome at home but keebord! Yayness! I can post without it taking three hours typing letter by letter mwahahaha! Fear mah postability. It's black too and shiny and new.

Hey, nifty. Freema Agyman-with-the-name-I-still-can't-spell is on Jonathan Ross. That makes up a bit for missing John Barrowman last week. Missed HIGNFY again but that's what Saturday repeats are for. Plus Doctor Who and Joseph and oh, wait, we're going to see Pirates. Huh. That... hadn't occurred to me.

Huh. This is when I miss Sky+. Maybe we can go after.

Stream-of-consciousness post. I haven't been able to do this in forever, because by the time I typed anything it'd happened last month and I'd forgotten. Hee, Ozzy Osbourne. I love him on chat shows, because it's just fun watching him try to talk.

Random call from 'rents in America. "Where are you?!" "I was in the kitchen." "WHICH KITCHEN?!" "In Lancaster." "...Why are you in Lancaster?" "...Um. I go to uni here?" They'd been calling home thinking I was still there. Sigh. And then they asked if I'd left Casper inside. Inside for two days when he's apparently forgotten what a litter tray is for, yeah right. I'm that stupid. Sometimes I wonder what my parents really think of me. Though, I did let Casper sleep on my bed last night and the little git gradually takes up more and more room until you're literally stuck in a corner with no duvet and a cat attacking your feet if you try to shift him. Meaning I got no sleep because I couldn't get comfortable. So maybe my 'rents have got something there after all.

...There was something I started this post to say and I've forgotten in the random. Maybe that I' (finally) back in Lancaster. Yeah. That... kinda wasn't interesting enough to merit the rambling but shush. Keyboard!

edit: Also this (found via [livejournal.com profile] seperis) is the funnest waste of time ever invented. Seriously. Pretty circles. With pretty sound effects. What else is there?

edit: Oh and Miko said she was watching Shaun of the Dead earlier, and her exact words were "I love Simon Pegg. He's so adorable." To which I did not do a Manic Dance of Gleeful Conversion to Pegglove, but very calmly said "Oh you should watch Spaced. He's good in that too."

So I'm lending her Spaced after her exams finish. I'm just vaguely gutted that she's going back to Japan in a month and we won't be able to fangirl, maybe ever again. Alas.
