WAS: 2012 Week 9 and a stitch saved in time. Thought I'd try again at starting the week thread with the numbers theme this time. I'm in London today doing photography for a function. Nothing major, but nice to be sought for to do something. Here's hoping you all Ave' a good un this week. On a time-related note; today's Teefury offering is a rather fantastic Dr Who crest. Only available for 24 hrs.  |

Day off work.
So far edited ep 2.3 of Stardub, took Susie for a walk and picked up some books from sorting offices. Now scanning in pages of art for Mr Blueshift to colour.

I've been off work today as well. Rather enjoyed having a lie-in until 9am this morning. Got some shopping in and then dondered off to the cinema. A nice relaxing day before I go back to work tomorrow. Most enjoyable.

2.4 edited.
The BIG recordings won't sadly be shared, a bit too drunk and noisy.
Battered Matt's inbox with 11 pages of art. Will do a bit of sketching later on, while trying to lock down some iPad friendly formatting for things.

A far better day today. I got out and wrote five blog entries.

The BIG recordings won't sadly be shared, a bit too drunk and noisy. Andy I rather thought as much. Drunken yelling rarely makes for good listening! Spent the day down the fleapit catching up on new releases and had my first try-out of the IMAX screen that opened late last year. I had forgotten how impressive the IMAX sound-system is. Yes, clearer and bigger picture and all that but it's the clarity and depth of the sound quality that makes the most difference. IMAX also has a most amusing 'preparing the audience for MAXIMUM IMMERSION' cod-computer voice sequence thingy before the film starts. Got a fright upon checking my bank balance. I appear to have overspent somewhat in Brum so must be very frugal between now and the next day of pay! Work tomorrow. UGH. -Ralph |

Proving to be a very up and down week so far. Saw a couple of my best friends last night so we went for a quiet drink (very quiet, we were all knackered for one reason or another), and caught up in a most satisfactory manner.
However, my affairs of the heart continue to plague, which is something which continues to mess me up. All my own doing as well, as far as I can tell, which is a bit of a bummer. Also the local mental health services are continuing to be less than helpful. Back on the phone later today to try and get things going...
And finally: I have gig tickets! I'm going to watch a certain Emilie Autumn in March. Very excited about that, but need to work out a pseudo Victorian-ish outfit...

Huzzah! It's time to do the "continuation of ill health benefit" form for work's insurers. 4 pages of questions which seem much more invasive than last time.

I can't find the thread, but the Adbot wants me to take out life insurance for the over-50's. I'm not that far gone am I?
Online self-referral for the mental health dudes doesn't like me, so they're sending me a paper form to fill in. Progress, at least...

No Thamesdown bux driver, maybe taking FOUR buggies on board was a bad idea. Yes your disabled passengers are going to have difficulty getting off if all the handles are pointing into the aisle.
and as to the member of public that said I fell over deliberately.....

Andy had this thing he said was a microphone in his lap which we all had to lean down and blow into.

I had a feeling that you would listen to what was said post-pub in the cold light of dawn and file the whole lot under "too hot for TV".
A chap at TRU has his last shift tomorrow before heading to pastures new. He's called in sick the last few days so the boss doesn't expect to see him and has asked me to cover his last two shifts. It seriously cuts into my Mass Effect time, but it's money in the bank.

Second day of the working week, and I am apparently still suffering a little from sleep-deprivation. I felt quite, quite wiped out today. Ah well - only two working days left of the week, then I can have a lie-in on Saturday morning.
