I should really try to make an effort and update more often, but the last thing I want to do when I get home after work is sit in front of my laptop. And I haven't even drawn a single thing for Inktober. Fail. Well, at least I've scribbled down a few more paragraphs of that Mystrade fic I started AGES ago. My goal is to finish before the end of the ( Read more... )

I'd been looking for a pair of shoes to wear to work and I found two!

( Shoes! )

Last night I had a dream about Mark Gatiss. Well, he only appeared at the end, but that's the second time I've dreamed about him in less than two weeks. In last night's dream he was supposed to be the pilot of a private plane my parents and I had booked, but he was late, so my father decided to fly the plane himself and almost crashed it. At the ( Read more... )

Ugh, another job offer that is exactly what I want to do and for which I even have the required experience. The downside? It's abroad, so I'll never get shortlisted because I don't already live there. Sigh. I applied, but I'm not holding my breath.

I sort of disappeared for a while. I replied to a few job offers abroad, I'm not holding my breath, but who knows.

So, the bronchitis turned into a nasty cold that kept me company for the whole week, but thankfully I'm feeling better now. Yesterday was a very nice day, warm and sunny, so I decided to go for a walk because I had to skip gym this week and was feeling restless. And while I was at it, I did a bit of shopping too. :3 ( Read more... )

I'm back safe and sound. I still have to put away some stuff and I haven't downloaded all my pics yet, so this post won't be that long ( Read more... )

Yesterday was the first day of sales, so I went to Milan determined to find a pair of shoes. It must have been the quickest purchase of my life: I saw the shoes in the shop window, got in, tried them on and bought them. It usually takes me ages to find shoes I like, but this time I got lucky. Here they are:
