How Long is a Tether?

Secretly Not Here Any More

I'm not sure, but I'm perilously close to the edge of mine.

L's back in hospital tomorrow for gallstone-related tests. That could turn into a stay while they whip the damn thing out, or just yet more waiting. Remaining outwardly calm while worrying has always been my forte, but I'm sure she's noticed I'm on a shorter fuse than normal.

Then there's work. Oh, and buying the house. And the fact that I'm nominally helping a friend promote a nationwide poetry tour (gratis), helping another get to grips with promoting his local stuff and making excuse after excuse to Happy Nerd about not pulling my weight on the Comms Team.

And to top it off, I'm going into a weekend with a cool £20 in my pocket, because this has been the longest gap between pay-days I've ever had.

So I apologise in advance if I turn into a flaming ball of rage at any point in the near future.

You have been warned.

Oh don't give up on Jack Daniels. And have you tried Dickens Cider? Girls love it apparently. http://www.hockeyclubhouse.com/deadwings/images/pages/5425.jpg

Are there private messages here now? I am still using Alabaster so don't know if new features are being implemented in it...

It's okay. You're allowed to have a life.

FB, Mr603 and I are trying to build up the size of the Comms Team so that one of us can have a life once in a while. Want to come play with us?

Eurgh. L's back in hospital again in a week or two for more tests, the solicitors of the developers we're buying the house from are playing silly buggers, and there's always work to peck my head too.

Happy Nerd, I'll email you later to let you know a few brainfarts I've had.

But other than that, I'm going to spend every spare moment this month under my bed.
