I've started playing the violin again. I haven't felt like playing in ages (and when I have I've been far away from my violin) but I have no calluses on my left hand so it hurts! I have blisters!

My Saturdays no longer feel Saturday like and this is a very distressing turn of events because I rarely have an accurate feeling for what day it is anyway. I have a supervision on Saturdays now, moved from 7 on a Friday evening, which I suppose is also a bad time but it mean that my work on Saturdays used to finish at 11 but now I'm not done until ( Read more... )

It was interesting and surprisingly un-awkward mostly because she is very nice and not so into the whole proselytising thing and was not offended when I called god a nice idea, which might not have been the most respectful ( Read more... )

I need to do work!!! And this is not working! I so don't want to do anything but mooch about on the internet this afternoon but I have pathology holiday work that I should have finished by now and laundry to do. Basically: WHINE.

I have been rewatching Avatar with nikobelia and reipan. It fills me with so much glee. I knew that I enjoyed it and that much of it ( Read more... )
