Wishing @Melrick the very best of birthdays, and many, many more!    

Oh, sweet gods, Notre Dame is burning… 

One flower bed weeded,  four to go..

I am back, and slowly getting to the point where I’ve picked everything back up again. Which means, if you’re wondering why I haven’t been reviewing lately, it’s because I’m just beginning to catch up on my reading.
I love holidays, but they do tend to make me lose my way when they’re over. Never literally as yet. I mean, I’ve always managed to get the train back eventually, though if the service degrades any further that might change.
Looks like I won’t be holidaying in Brunei anytime soon. What a world.
I am back in Wales at the end of the month, though. They putting a bit of opera on.

does not recommend stair surfing.  Things get broken.  Like your neck, your collarbone, and apparently your wrist. 

So, there is something very wrong with the universe when my 24-year old niece is undergoing chemo for Ewing’s sarcoma.

Have I ever mentioned how much I fucking hate cancer?

I am away for a week and will be without internet… wish me luck!
Hopefully, I will get some writing done. I plan to extend and write more of an original story that @CloverReef has helped me with – thank you so much!
If all goes well, I may start posting that upon my return.
Later!
 

Day UK leaves the EU: 29th March.
Day UK government bans internet porn: 1st April.
Nothing can go wrong here… nothing at all!
Seems you will be able to visit porn websites if you go into an actual shop and physically purchase some kind of weird licence for a fiver, which you’ll need to use within 24 hours. This will be sold to you by the very last person alive that you want thinking of you and sex. Though even getting to the counter may well mean having to fight your way through a violent melee involving people fighting over toilet roll AND people who left it too late to buy bread and are now battling it out for the last Soreen.

Well, I’m back, and I may even be writing again. I’m not going to say what’s been happening, because that would just bore you all – and me. Suffice to say I suspected it before, but now I know that Hell is dually purposed as a carpet shop. You’ll finally realise how many rugs you’re standing on when cackling demons start pulling them from under your feet.
Something is off with the universe lately, but perhaps it’s settling itself. Except, there’s Brexit to look forward to. Of all the things I hate, I hate that I’ve become one of those insane people who keep shelves full of bottled water… just in case. All we need is a second referendum, then the people of this country will vote ‘No Deal’ like lambs to the slaughter.
Ah, well.
For as long as it’s possible, I may as well potter about in my own AU’s.
 

I’m back from vacation, and ready to start planning the next one.

Happy Holidays to everyone, and hope you have a wonderful time. 

The happiest of birthdays to our very own @DemonGoddess! I hope you at least get the day off today, or get to go home on time so you can celebrate!  

A bird recently shat on my head.  Apparently that’s lucky, although I can’t say it felt lucky at the time.  Still, perhaps the lucky bit was that it was a seagull and not one of the 28lb pelicans we were surrounded by.

Just said my goodbyes to three specialists because they’ve figured out whatever I have is not in their wheelhouses… They’re still not sure exactly what it is, but they’re pretty sure it’s in infectious disease territory now, so yay! Less trips to the big city hopefully! And by next week I should actually be receiving some treatment. Which will be nice. Been going downhill since March, and nobody wanted to treat me before they knew what they were dealing with. 

The wee corgi is home! She’s a little bit stoned on meds, but she’s home, and I’m so glad to have her here!

The wee corgi lass is in the hospital.  ::sigh::
I fucking hate epilepsy.
