So, today I managed to wake up reasonably early, which considering what with packing etc. I still didn't get as early a night last night as I had intended, I finished off some packing, did my basic ablutions and considered breakfast. Some consultation with Sharon via messaging indicated that she wanted to try somewhere called Cumulus which had some ( Read more... )

Today I actually wore my new Continuum 11 shirt. Mostly because it was the longest day that I would be wearing the same outfit during the convention for the entire day (because the other days are either partial days or I changed for the maskobolo). Fit is reasonable and I was comfortable for most of the day.

And it's late. Again, which is pretty much par for the course. Though I did actually manage to get up and awake early this morning. I woke up a few minutes before the alarm, and it wasn't the noise from the city that woke me because I did indeed manage to arrange for someone to come and show me how to shut the damn window.

I had some brief wake ups during last night, such that when my alarm went off at 7am this morning I decided that I was not quite ready to get up (it of course being 5am Perth time) and I snoozed a bit longer, until shortly past 10am in fact. Confirming my wisdom in not arriving in Melbourne on the Friday itself and trying to get up for panels on ( Read more... )

Some of my habits are going to fall into the hole of not getting done this weekend, purely because they can only really be done when I'm home, or when I have something with a bit more grunt than an iPad. So I am not likely to be doing my distributed proofreaders (not sure how that would work, though I might give it a try), music playing will be ( Read more... )

Today had its ups and downs. I didn't quite get my steps done. Not even with my new, more conservative goal, but I was only 500 steps short. I would have got it if I hadn't sat down when I got home, but I had had a busy day.

Today I did not do what many geeky people were doing. I did not go to OzComicCon. More power to those who want to attend such thing. Especially the ones waiting for hours in the queues to get autographs or whatever. But it has given me the impression from what I have heard of it that it is overfull of people, and not much of what I am interested in ( Read more... )

There may be a few more typos than usual tonight, though I may edit them out later, if I can see to do so. And I'm not going to spend my time bemoaning my being sick (because I've done that to death and besides I have the good drugs now). No, tonight I'm remembering and feeling sad, and feeling grateful and feeling regretful and probably a whole ( Read more... )

Today I did indeed have a very small lie in. But not by much because now that I'm testing the pool in the morning I don't want to leave it too late otherwise the UV gets very high, and if I have other things that I want to do then doing it in the afternoon is less appealing. But eventually I got up, and did my morning stuff, including my laps, ( ( Read more... )

Well, my typing may be a bit slower than usual tonight. I was going great guns until I was heading home after an ASFDAP session and the cat there took exception to me moving my computer bag to put my computer away and managed to claw my pinkie nicely. No actual blood but I cleaned it out and put on some stuff and put on a band aid, so it's the band ( Read more... )
