Jan. 26th, 2005 11:53 amThe place is in quiet mode this morning, Paul's dad is going into hospital again today...well Ok has gone in already but as of 10pm yesterday still had no clue what time his op was scheduled for, when he was due to be discharged or even what wward he was going to be on! The Eliot really is diabolical about organisation - and I say that from MY standards! So yeah, we're both a little stressed and waiting on tenterhooks for Lesley to phone and let us know what's going on.
I really should be thinking about packing for tomorrow but that H word just seems to intrude.
Then there's the minor problem of my own body rebelling against me...I have learned one thing though, after going back to taking the pill properly it's not necessarily worth skipping a month anymore. Yes there are times when I just think "No, not fair, the universe can't make me deal with that AND bleeding at the same time!" Only problem is the next month everything catches up with me and I get it double, the bloating, the PMS, the aches, pains and general ickyness that is the price for being female. Rah!
I had a reminder last night of just how horribly attached I tend to get to fictional characters, although I wasn't on my own for once which did make me feel better.
Spoiler warning, anyone who hasn't seen the second part of Farscape the Peacekeeper Wars look away now...
Gone? Good.
The bastards killed D'Argo! I am not impressed! Alright he got the big Klingon death in battle moment and was left to take out as many Scarans as he could but that's not the point...they killed him! Dammit! Ok, rant finished now, the fact that baby D'Argo was so incredibly cute helped - yes John and Aeryn named their baby after him, no big surprise there then.
End of mini froth.
You can look again now.
I'm having a slight conflict of interests as well. Have an invite to see the rSC (the reduced version) next friday, the day we're supposed to be playing Exalted 'cos Jackie isn't here on the saturday, now when that invite is combined with Changeling, Dark Ages and good company I can't really say no. Only problem is I either feel guilty for making Skye and Alan miss out on Exalted (Jackie doesn't count, she has VI on the saturday) or I let Lauren get NPC'd for the session ... currently she's a new character and very much my baby so I'm having problems letting her go... Dammit there's that fictional character thing again!
What I need is hot weather, chocolate ice-cream and somewhere nice to eat it, that would make me feel better. Unfortunately I think I have another few months to wait for that.
*Remembers* I really should go check my Maelstrom DT having bitched about having to wait so long for it I've now almost forgotten it needs doing...
