Ah, the end of another Bournemouth Meet. A successful one, if my standards are anything to go by (which of course they really aren’t). My recovery from illness - for now, anyway - proved just in time for the descent of no less than 13 friends on what for the...
I guess I was kind of caught off guard by the amount of sympathy I’ve recieved since that last post ^_^; I guess I’d be lying if I didn’t say that it helped a bit, so thank you everyone! It turns out that I couldn’t get a doctor’s appointment for...
Apologies if I keep this brief, sitting in a chair feels most undesirable at the moment. Today marks the second day I’ve spent off work, and at this rate I’ll be doing likewise tomorrow as well. I’ll explain the history to this one, in case it’s relevant. Around two months...
So, today was… fun. Not quite what I was expecting when I made the morning odyssey to work… As usual, I was getting odd looks from passers-by and the guards at the front gate, but then as I’m someone who carries an umbrella over one shoulder even on quite sunny...
For a while I’ve had a strange thing with my hearing, as if I listen kind of subconsciously. Sounds slip into my mind without me noticing - I guess that’s why I often ask people to repeat themselves a fraction of a second before realising that I knew what was...
Last night was… a little weird. I had a dream - a very long and, I think, important one. Then I dreamed that I woke up, wrote it all down, and went back to bed. There was another dream after that; which was about Lime, Elise, Stel and I in...
A warning - each paragraph gets steadily geekier and more obscure than the last! =p First off, I appear to have an Umbrella of Sunshine (+1?)… The only day this week that I left it at home, I got drenched. Monday and Wednesday were dry, and today was hot and...
It just doesn’t get any better, does it? Half an hour’s walk in the cold rain. 20 minutes stuck at Wareham. 20 minutes going slowly due to signal problems. 10 minutes waiting for stuck doors to open at Poole. Two armed policemen and one announcement later, we’re evacuating the train...
The overcast skies scatter the light, dampening out the scenery into shades of grey. The rushed half-hour walk to catch a cancelled train fills my mind with fuzzy interference. And on the train I eventually caught, the noise of wheels on tracks, the noise of the electronic announcements, the noise...
…Well, not quite. It still feels like I’m imposing, sleeping on their sofa, but at least it’s Southampton - that’s a start. Even though not a lot happened this weekend, it was really fun! I’m not sure quite what kind of cheese the Fantastic Four movie is, but it feels…...
