OMG!! Internet!
How I have missed you! *clings*
We've had a veeeeeeery relaxing ten days, mostly because the weather's been kinda blah, about 9 degrees and windy, so we stayed inside a lot, just reading and sleeping and eating and I wrote a little and knitted and basically was a lazy sloth. Now we're at my aunt's and uncle's farm up north were it's somewhere around 5 degrees Celsius, still windy with added non-stop rain. About the same or even colder than it was in the city during the winter. *sighs* Basically summer just decided to skip Iceland this year. Okay, so we still have July and August but at this point I'm not very optimistic. I just want a little sun, goddammit. All this cold weather is making me depressed.
Anyway, they have internet since my aunt's daughter bought her a laptop so they can Skype (she lives in NY) and so I'm finally online. We had the ipad from hubby's work with us at the cabin but the 3G that is supposed to be available all over the country quite frankly isn't and the usual connection was so slow (and completely refused to work at all if it was raining) that I gave up after it taking half an hour to just open LJ's inbox. (The ipad hates Gmail for some reason, it would only show me the first few lines of each message and nothing more.)
So this is me, being completely overwhelmed by the amazing response to my Door's timestamp. THANK YOU!! You've put a huge smile on my face. :D *hugs you all*
Like I said, I tried to write a little but I'm not really liking what I've got. I like the idea well enough, just not how it turned out. And yeah, okay, it's a bit overused that whole concept I'm going with. Which might also be why I'm not feeling it. Whatever. We'll see if it comes to anything. I have plenty of other stuff to work on.
And now, to read my flist. Or what I can manage of it. It's been 10 days. I think it's a pretty lost cause to catch up with everything so feel free to point me in the direction of anything interesting/fun.
