On NaNoWriMo (EDIT: it does put things in perspective...).

Also, xkcd=cool. Because didn't we all think that?

Am home sick from work but not feeling so bad any more, just kind of stupid. Had two inspirations for Angel fanvids today, becuase my muse likes making me suffer (I don't even own the show, I could get Buffy ideas but noooo) One to "Baby on Board", which any of you who have seen the show can probably imagine and be glad I'm currently standing firm in my "Fanvids are too much goddamn work" policy.

Did I mention I'm reading the "His Majesties Dragon" series? They're quite enjoyable, if not super deep or anything. Got "The Beauty Myth" out of the library but that's waiting till my brains a bit more awake. Today is definitely a "rereading Lois McMaster Bujold" day. Speaking of which, who has my copy of "Paladin of souls", I want it back.

Also, I love my job. I mean it's fun (if tiring) to do, and the hours are flexible, but also the people are just nice. Got a pretty friendly voicemail from my manager considering that from her point of view I just didn't turn up to work today for no reason (I did leave a message saying I was sick but she didn't get it) And I've been getting quite positive feedback on my performance, which is a nice change from the general impression I got of being the worst postgrad in the dept (admitedly I think this is a common perception amongst postgrads) I mean I think I'm a good tutor, but that counts for very little (except to the students of course, bless 'em).

Pretty sure I have Paladin of Souls. What is the easiest way to get it back to you? (I also have a roleplaying book of Cameron's to give back to him)

Ummm......dunno? Let me get back to you when my brain isn't mush :)

(Also: I didn't get comment notifications for these, disturbing)

Comment notifications are kinda broken for me too. I'm not getting them for comments on my journal, but I am for replies to comments I have left on other journals.

It was a harmless blog site, enjoyed by many, until one stormy night a mysterious storm caused it to crash. The site came back online soon, but it was CHANGED. And now it will be giving people a lot more than email notification. This summer's biggest horror smash, The Comment Notifier. (Rated R 18+)
