I took a minute out from cheering on the Wolfman, who still probably tops the list of Things I Love Most From My Childhood, to go into the office to grab the laptop... only to be faced with this outside the window. That's the best picture I could get without falling off the computer chair but seriously, that's a big spider. For us over here in rainy 'ol Britain anyway. She's been living outside the window all summer but she's always been "Wow, that's big" rather than "Holy fuck". I, uh. Opened the window to try to get a clearer picture, accidentally broke a strand of the GIGANTIC WEB... and slammed the window shut yelling "DON'T HURT ME, DON'T HURT ME!"
Yeah. Courage? In the face of insects? Not my strong point. Australia is going to be interesting.
Terrifying Arachnid Episodes aside, Gladiators: Legends was *awesome*. It was like My Childhood VS The Present and My Childhood was still kicking ass. Oh Wolf. You are still fantastic. It was worth annoying my parents with squee all week for you.
More squee was had when random SkyGuide flickage - which is weird for me; I read it like once a year - revealed the fourth series of Grey's Anatomy, my delicious crack that I've been missing terribly because Private Practise just isn't the same, starts on the 11th. Yay! Maybe it'll actually get me through the next seven weeks of working five days a week without a break. -_- Unfun. But then there's the awesome of Moran and Cardiff and London, and then there's only a month before I'm free. I can totally do this. Baby steps. Plus I get a new laptop next weekend (it was going to be this weekend but once again we must rearrange our lives around my brother. I'm not bitter. I've only been waiting two months already. Not bitter at all)
It just dawned on me that it's late and I have to go to bed because I have to get up tomorrow. That's the part that's really sucking, the early mornings. The tennis scheduling was kind today though; everything I was excited about was on at a watchable hour. It gave me Roger winning beautifully two minutes before Gladiators started, then Andy winning in straight sets after. I was so happy to see Roger playing better. It has to give him confidence going into the second week and confidence is so what he needs in bucketloads now. C'mon Roger. Win this damn thing.
I have been neglecting LJ rather lately. Sorry. There's only so much I can say about the idiots I get in work. Must be more interesting.
Must get more sleep. >_< Bah.
