I know how to finish the het story now. I want to write it. Guess what I forgot to pick up this morning? My USB flash drive. Guess where the het story is? Yeah...

Bollocks.

In other news, still sore. My back froze up on me in the underground station this morning - almost couldn't get on the train. I'll be phoning the doctors then...

ETA thedothatgirl? The vids are on the flash drive as well, so my reviews will be later than I hoped - Sunday night okay?

Still ow. Bath helped last night and the painkillers have been helping, but this chair is really making it worse. After being in work for half an hour this morning I could barely move. (plus my neck's starting to hurt because of it which is worrying - I have a long standing issue with my neck (there's an extra piece of bone on one of the prongs of one the vertebrae) and could really do without it coming back!)

I phoned OH - I have an appointment on Monday at 3. As well as everything else I need to talk to them about I'll mention the back troubles.

I also phoned the surveyer to get my house valued - they're coming next Thursday, just at the point when I'll be packing like a lunatic for Serenity: Complete. sorchasilver - we need to arrange a way to find each other there! And I also just discovered that a girl I've been hanging out with is going to be working at the con, and has been working at previous Starfury cons I've been to. Small world, huh?

I have one more scary phone call to make, and I know this sounds like an excuse, but I don't have my reference number with me. I will phone them tomorrow, I swear. (Or if I get home early enough I'll phone tonight.)

Still looking for fic recs by the way, I'm in the mood to read Angel (the series) fic at the moment but since it's not one of my primary fandoms I'm not sure where to start looking. Any help would be good!

The plan for next week:
Monday - OH appointment
Tuesday - 'training' session given by someone who doesn't know what she's talking about
Wednesday - tour of the British Library in Boston Spa (getting there by train, hope to hell my back's better by then!)
Thursday - off work to let the surveyer in and I need to pack
Friday - Megabus to London, Heathrow Express to Heathrow.
Friday night to Monday morning - SERENITY: COMPLETE!!!!!!
Monday - Megabus back to Glasgow

Ooo - almost forgot! bobbinrob, did you get your confirmation from Sweet Charity yet? I haven't heard anything from the site, but I said to halcyon_shift yesterday that we could contact each other anyway.

Happy Paper Fish Day.

I'm becoming addicted to Facebook - this is wrong and evil and just... no! Help!!!

hopeless_cynic - when are you coming to Scotland? Is it tomorrow? (please tell me it's tomorrow... the spare room is still full of stuff...) And also I should really try to borrow Sis's car and actually have some food in the house for when you get here!

My arm feels better being strapped up, although I was back to see the nurse this morning to check the strapping and she was manipulating my arm in ways that really, really hurt. Ibuprofen is a wonderful thing!

Right, I need to go, get some writing done I think. I'm already late(ish) with two ficathon fics which is bugging me a lot right now, but I can't seem to get them started. Ah well (opens up Word and stares at the blank screen)

my mp3 player's corrupted. It's not an expensive one - it was twenty quid for 1GB a few months ago - but my computer can't open it and half the tracks on it are jumping like crazy. (Including Different Kind of Knight). There's no way on earth I can justify buying a new one so I'll be music-less for quite a while I reckon.

Oh, and I now have my arm strapped up and a sling on. It's not stopping me doing anything because I keep taking the sling off. Yes, I know, it's completely the wrong thing to do and it'll never get better if I keep doing it, but I can't type with one hand...

Just thought I'd better post something today so that it doesn't look like I've done a runner again. 'Kay, I'm off to go watch TV. *nods*

Happy New Year!

Yes, I'm late, but I'm only just home so I think I can be forgiven?

And now that I am home... I have an appeal for my flist who may or not be SPN fans. There are *NO*!!!! Reccs for me to post this week over at spnfencentral (the spoiler free Supernatural community which kinda rocks...). I post the news and the community reccs on Tuesdays. There were no reccs yesterday, which I'm not all that surprised by since it was New Year's Day, I put an appeal out on the news post yesterday (after checking with the comm maintainer that it would be okay to do it) to give an extra day for reccs, but... there are still none.

I may cry.

So, even if you are not a member of the comm (which - why not?!! Go! Join!), here's your chance to link to anything SPN related - fic, icons, wallpapers, vids, meta, picspams, random squee, anything at all you could possibly want to see - either comment to this post and I'll include it, or comment here on the comm's rec list - you have a few hours yet. I't's quarter past seven in the evening, I will probably post in around two or three hours. But even if you post later than that, I will include it in *next* week's post.

Please?

*bats eyelashes*

Oh - and I have a sore arm. A very sore arm. I will be going to the doctor tomorrow, but it's very sore. wenchpixie told me what she thinks is causing it and it starts with B and has 'itis' at the end. Other than that I'm stumped. It's the elbow I landed on when I fell on my birthday - it's still really sore and although I can do a lot with it, I can't straighten it or carry much weight on it. I am following falling apart. Clearly.

I'm *this* close to having more fic posted, I was writing on the train this afternoon but apparently I looked like I knew the entire timetable of the line I was on and kept getting asked if the train stopped at random stations, so I gave up. I'll finish and have it beta'd soon, and post ASAP.

Happy New Year!

You'd think that since I've been falling over a lot in the last month I'd maybe keep the floor clear of things that are easy to fall over, right? Only that would make a whole lot more sense than I apparently possess.

At least I didn't graze my knee(s) again. Although the fact that I still can't really bend my left elbow all that much is a tad bit worrying.

Ah well, it's kinda typical for me right now. I'm off to have a hot shower, see if it eases it off a little, and then try to get caught up with everything I didn't get done yesterday. (And I guess I should go see sis at some point today, otherwise she'll complain)

Haven't fallen yet today.

Admittedly I've not moved around much, so the opportunities for falling have been limited, but right now I'll take what I can get.

charlies_dragon? I've finished part of your home-made thingy - yay! kitty_cat89? I've started on yours - it's going well but slowly...

Everything else I was meant to do this weekend? Hasn't been done. I'm tired of forcing myself to finish things when they aren't ready to be done. Generally I'm just really tired.

So I'm taking this opportunity of time off work to try to stop being tired. If that means I spend a week sleeping, then so be it. If it turns out that I end up being more productive, then so be it.

Whatever happens I want rid of this randomised feeling of guilt I seem to always be carrying these days.

Wow, that got deep, basically I just wanted to say I'm going to be a little bit awol for a week or so till I get some things sorted out.

And I'm finding it incredibly funny that right now my default view of my flist is one post after another after another featuring a YouTube video of some film or other... Ten Inch something?

*grins*

Days without Sho falling over: 0

again.

Same bloody knee. Again. (and it is bloody this time).

And I landed on and broke a rosewood table. Bugger.

Ow.

Ow.

Ow!

So yesterday I had fire warden training, yes, at some point in the near future I get to wear a hi-vis vest and tell students to keep the exits clear. Go me! (so does monkey_matt though, they're clearly letting anyone do this job...) and coming back from the training I slipped and fell. I grazed my knee. The same knee I grazed really badly last Christmas. The same knee that's had a keloid scar on it *since* last Christmas. The same knee that after that fall yesterday looked like someone had tried to flay me but got bored after thirty seconds.

That was bad enough.

And then as I was walking (slowly and carefully) down the steep hill from work, I fell again. And landed on the same knee.

And got up, and walked another ten steps. And fell again. And landed on the same knee.

And got up, walked (even more slowly and carefully) and made it about half way down the hill before falling again. And landing on the other knee.

It hurt like hell. There was blood inside my jeans.

Today, it still hurts and the escalators were off at both underground stations. Going down stairs is worse than going up, but it's sore either way.

So I'll be off in the corner for the rest of the day wondering exactly what it is that mothers have in their kiss that makes it all better, because I really don't remember the pain lasting this long when I was a kid...

Ow.
