Argh. My arm, that was supposedly getting better with antihistamines and antibiotics, is swelling up again. Not massively; it's just a little bemusing and annoying that after a couple of days of being fine, the bites have randomly become itchy and red again. *sigh ( Read more... )

Flist! Am going to Spain tomorrow. Shall be back very late on the 18th, thus no internetting for a week, probably. Enjoy yourselves in my absence.

Spain, omg! *g* Tomorrow!

I love Pride and Prejudice. I always have trouble spelling it, but it's great all the same. The BBC adaptation is particularly lovesome, all six hours of it. Mr Bennett is so delightfully good at handling his wife, and Mr Collins is so arrogantly presumptuous in his assumptions about women, and Mr Darcy's huuuge tall hat is a thing of wonder and ( Read more... )

(A phrase borrowed from hathy_col's description of Hiro of Heroes - and damn right, too - but which is now STUCK IN MY HEAD and absolutely describes the last few days.)

That was a WEEKEND OF WIN. Despite not being really a weekend. I mean, it was weekend in length, but started on Sunday afternoon, when I got on a train, and a few changes later was met by loneraven, ( Read more... )

I am Quite Happy with today's naarmamo art.

Oh. *sigh* I am having another moment (few moments; few days; weeks; a span of time which escapes detection) of Man from UNCLE love.

(Speaking of; I have no bids. :( Very sad.) And, having ( Read more... )

Malvern is obviously hilly, due to well-known Malvern Hills, and Durham is also very hilly, and so it was rather odd to walk everywhere on the flat. Except for up to Ellie's room, ( Read more... )

I just found a random fiver in my drawer! Me for the win!

In other news, I am going to Cambridge tomorrow, no, wait, today, and have to leave the flat in 8 hours. I have as yet only vaguely started packing, and I want to go to bed. Me for the loseSo, I'm off to pack and sleep and not think about how I have to get up even earlier as I need to wash ( Read more... )

Ok. I have been whinging recently, I'm sorry. This, sadly, probably won't change until I get home and can sleep for a week or so. But. Here and now, things are ok, so here and now this is a happy post ( Read more... )
