It's sucky, but if I want to so much as PASS this year, I'm going to have to take drastic measures! ^_^

LeechBlock, on the surface at any rate, seems pretty amazing! You can specify which DAYS you'd like to have these sites blocked, or give yourself a certain number of hours per week, or give yourself hours per day when they're blocked - and you can bar yourself from being able to change the settings during the blocked periods, so you can't have a moment of weakness and go "OMG NEED LIVEJOURNAL."

obviously, this experiment starts tomorrow, so fingers crossed! But so far it seems really good... :D

But couldn't you just uninstall the whole program in a moment of weakness? :P

I could... but I figure it's doing so much of my willpower for me, so I won't! Also, moments of weakness pass and I will reinstal it.

I WILL.

(I can't promise not to access my flist on library computers, though. :D)

Well, I suppose that's true, do make sure to check back on the weekends, though!

Just checking - did you get my email regarding your AAR!AU fic?

I did! And will reply as soon as I get back, my darling!

Also, ajskd;fas, please, I'll be shaking with internet withdrawal symptoms by the weekend. It'll be less 'check back' and more 'GIMME GIMEE GIMME YOU BASTARDS!!"

Are you still email-able, for those of us whom your phone sees fit to shun?

Have a good journey, I'll try to catch you on my way back from the gym.

Should be! :D Though I'll be blocking hotmail for most of the day, otherwise I just know I'll sit there and check it again and again and again. :D

Thanks, love, hopefully talk to you soon! ♥

Though lots and lots of uni work I do get. What exactly made me choose this degree? Am I insane?

Aw, bb, I miss you too! *HUGS*

Urgh, too much uni work is the bane of my LIFE, but, y'know, I figure I should get used to it. And yes, we ARE both insane. :D

I look forward to it! ♥
