OK, I'm getting incredibly stressed by the fact I'm sitting next to Paul while he's reading this. I don't mind him reading it... I just don't want to be here while he does!
I'd also like to point out that in my resolutions, I'm talking about variety of exercise, not variety of sex. I couldn't be happier about the variety of sex we're getting ;D
Sorry if that was TMI though.....

Well I dragged Paul onto campus and he's presently reading through this (eeek) which is a bit weird, although he's just pointed out that he's presently watching me which is even more stressful. Hmmmm. Anyway, just wanted to say hi and hope you're all having a lovely weekend, and Marjoriiiieeeeee, hope you're still cheerier since the tutu (scary visual that I don't want to think about).
I'll be back next week, even if it is sporadic :)

...and I even go back to close the bracket I left open.
There's just no helping some people....
4:48pm, Friday, February 16, 2001
What the hell am I doing posting here when I've got loads to do and Paul's meant to be arriving in 75 minutes (always assuming he gets that train and it's not late, but if he's aiming for the next one I might have to sulk as we're meant to be going to ...Deviation (goth night if you couldn't guess) and we won't get there in time if he gets the next train). And again, why am I posting long convoluted explanations when I'm in SUCH A RUSH? ;)
Have a lovely weekend everyone... see you Monday hopefully :)

Well Marjorie sweetie, where d'ya reckon stains comes from? Partly from Tori (watercolour stain), partly from NIN (I am stained), but just as much from the ever-quotable Cure and stains on the carpet, stains on the scenery. So there :p

I'm going to be busy next week. We're moving offices and people keep giving me things to do. And I can see myself not having time to email, never mind update! *eeek* So I'll try to keep posting here at least, but it might become a bit more sporadic. But I'll make it up to you all when I'm back, I promise! *sends out love to everyone*
As far as the new version and the project go, though, I'll try and make it onto campus a couple of evenings to sort them out, which should make it all all right :)

And I did yoga again this morning. Be proud of me :D

I hate everything right now. Except you, if you're reading this ;) I hate envy.nu because about half the time I try and sort out my new page that has on it one of the photos I scanned and uploaded last night it gives me a message saying 'we do not allow offsite linking of hosting files'. BUT IT'S NOT OFFSITE!!!! It's an envy.nu page linking to an envy.nu file! And I can't work out why it's doing this to me. I wouldn't mind if it never loaded the page, but because it does some of the time it's bugging me to death.
And I hate the fact that I can't get any of my images to be centered and I can't work out why. And I hate the fact that the network's been down for the last couple of hours so I've wanted to do loads of stuff and not been able to. And I've got to stop starting sentences with 'and'.
However, I got in the post this morning a Valentine from Tricia, which made my morning. You are such a sweetie. I also got a wedding invitation from my friends who're getting married in March. Which is nice as well :) And I called my sister before and talked to her for a bit, and that was good too. So it's not all bad :)

It took forever to scan the pictures because the scanner here is so crap. Still, I can't complain, at least it's actually a scanner, which is better than my no-scanner.
So we'll be waiting a while for the new version, but never fear, I'll be working on it all along!

How marvellous is this?!?
2:38pm, Thursday, February 15, 2001
I've just got myself a new email address and registered the URL for my new project! The plan is to come onto campus tonight for the AstroSoc lecture, then go on the computers for a while and get it going. I typed up a load of the things I want there last night so largely it's a question of getting it all there (oh and choosing colours and all that!).
I can imagine it'll be a while before it's actually up and runnning properly, so if you want to know what it is, email me and I'll let you know when there's at least something there, more than 'this user is still moving in' ;)
9:48am, Thursday, February 15, 2001
And if getting my Valentine's card a day late means getting an extra card to keep it company, then it can happen every year ;)
9:47am, Thursday, February 15, 2001
I did some yoga this morning!!! Be proud of me!!!
5:09pm, Wednesday, February 14, 2001
I may not be around tomorrow. I have plans, for my new project, for pieces of me, for getting some actual work done. If not, I promise I'll be back Friday (but the more you email me the more likely I am to still post tomorrow!).
4:16pm, Wednesday, February 14, 2001
New journal entry. And not a mention of the fact it's Valentine's Day. Mainly because it doesn't feel like it... I haven't got Paul's card yet, and I won't see him til Friday evening, and neither of us can afford to take the other out or anything... so, yeah, whatever.
I'm also interested to know why I quote the Cure in my journal. I'm not that big a Cure fan. It seems strange that they always seem most relevant.

I've been demoted *sniff*
12:38pm, Wednesday, February 14, 2001
We had the flat inspection last night. The place was spotless and sweet smelling, and the woman who came round is going to get my window and the cooker fixed (the double glazing in my room is broken, as are one of the hobs and the main oven). So that's a relief. I can stop panicking now.
I also spoke to my sister. She's recovering nicely, although she went out of the house for the first time yesterday and is exhausted. The lad she was seeing has also phoned and they've sorted everything out, so she's happy again. I'm really pleased for her. :)

Happy Valentine's Day!
3:34pm, Tuesday, February 13, 2001
I've been meaning to give you all an update on my resolutions for a while now and not got round to it. So here we go....
1. Smoking? See this journal entry for my delving into why it's been so hard. But I'm beginning to get there... the letting agents are coming to inspect the flat tonight so I've had to stop smoking in the flat to get rid of the smell. Last weekend, even staying at Paul's with three smokers, I hardly smoked. I'm well on track to giving up by the time Loria arrives... I just have to make sure I deal with why I let it get so bad so I never start again.
2. I'm not really on track for this. But I'm trying to use the car less at lunch times... get up early enough to make lunch so I don't need to drive home and make it. And I walked to the bank yesterday lunch time. Which was lovely. I'll give myself an extra month to achieve this.
3. Set the two yoga targets back a month each too. I've not even started yet. *blush*
4. I don't have the money to go swimming. Or join the gym. I'm trying to walk more, and yeah, sex is still good ;)
5. Since January I've cut down on my phone calls, and only rarely bought anything I don't actually need to buy. So I'm doing well on this one at least... even if it is through necessity *sigh*
6. The phone calls to Paul now are a lot shorter, and one night a week we don't call. And I'm feeling more secure. Which is nice.
7. and 8. Start beating me up over these now.
9. Can't really start looking yet. I'm still in the flat till summer.
10. I'm working on this, slowly but surely. Telling my sister more. Calling relatives. Trying not to lie to them so much. It's hard, but I think it's worth it.
11., 12., 13. Not yet.
14. I've been to AstroSoc a few times and enjoyed it. I'm going to a talk on Thursday, which I'm looking forward to.
So there you go. I'm not doing too badly, but I could be doing a hell of a lot better. And I'm feeling left out of all the encouragement that's going round out there, but none of my goals really fit to join anything. So encourage me!!!!

The probe was never built to land, yet it did. It's amazing.
11:38am, Tuesday, February 13, 2001
I got a virus! And I got to go 'hmmmm, that's a virus, better not open it' and nod sagely. Fun fun fun.
Of course, I got it in excite mail on a Mac, so it wouldn't have done anything, but that's not the point dammit!! ;)
3:18pm, Monday, February 12, 2001
I got my new glasses on Friday!!! They're lovely, half rimmed and bronze coloured. They're far stronger than my old glasses and they still make me feel dizzy but I love them :)
I'm going to get my hair cut and dye it and then post before and after photos!
11:06am, Monday, February 12, 2001
Go to this site to donate food to the victims of the earthquake in India. As the Hunger site, it counts one donation per day, so keep going back!
9:28am, Monday, February 12, 2001
I finally got to post my journal entry from Friday.
And I didn't have any email :( Well only from sitemeter and a reply from Kate, telling me how to put a subject on email links. Ah well.
Had a good weekend though.
