And so it goes on...
Update time. Not that I've done a lot, as I don't feel like going out much.
Had Friday off. Took Pearl to the vet for her follow-up about her cough. She seems much better, but we have extra antibiotics to make sure it's all over. But it does seem to have been bronchitis rather than asthma though, which is good I guess. Pootled about and watched TV, then got ready to go see Bauhaus. I enjoyed it very much, although I've never been a huge fan. It is a shame to see Peter Murphy's very thinning hair though... a sign of the times I suppose. I'm discovering though that I like standing at gigs less and less. I get uncomfortable and slightly panicky when I start to feel I'm surrounded by people crushing in around me. And my back starts to ache after a while (Pete isn't the only one getting old apparently!) However, I saw several people who I know/am aquainted with which was nice. And I got complimented on how I looked *grin* And we sold the two spare tickets at face value too, which is cool.
Poor Other Chris is actually IN hospital now. Has been since Thursday night. Apparently he'll be released tomorrow, so I might go see him at the weekend if he's up to it. And as far as I'm aware, I'm going to see Mike on Friday night. So, maybe I'll actually do something other than sit around this weekend.
A text from Gideon arrived on Friday too. So I then phoned him - he's got a two week temp job, and an interview lined up for a customer services job paying 14K. I hope he gets it. He actually sounded much better, much more cheerful and focused and positive. Just like the Gideon I fell in love with to be honest. I guess that this is a good sign! I truly hope that he continues in such a vein, and then maybe...?? Some small flicker of hope?? But hearing him all happy and bubbly just seemed to make me miss him more - too vivid the remembrances of how fantastic he is when he IS on good form.
Have bought some books and CD's and DVDs this week from dear Play.com. What lovely cheap goods they purvey... :o)
And I finally got an Oyster card for my travellings. Welcome to the New Age of London Transport...
Work is busy again. Beginning to get the exam entries in for the Summer session *sigh*. Thus, it is NOT a good time for our database to be acting up. It is currently going at a snails pace. I guess that the hamsters that run the wheels to make it work must be tired again...
Ok, well. That's it then. The sad little life of a sad little Clare... Lunch time.
