So I have no internet for all of 48 hours, and you guys go nuts! Skip=140 people! I'm...really going to have to do a flist trim again, because this is going to drive me insane. *goes hunting for scissors*

I've got about eleventy-hundred tabs open to read, and want to try to actually, you know, talk to people over the next week, but TalkTalk interpreted our "we are moving on Friday and wish to cease our contract" message as "cut us off and do it now". So we have no outgoing phone and no internet at home. There is a reason we're switching ISPs. As a result my internet's going to be very limited over the next week or so, which is immensely frustrating.

Yes, the weekend was lovely, thank you, except when it wasn't. Full report to follow, and if anyone has a sure-fire way of eliminating transport gremlins, please would you type up the recipe for me?

There is much, much more stuff, but for now let me just point to this: [livejournal.com profile] donutsweeper has done a commentary on my story "The First Time", here, which I WILL read later. Thanks, hon!

Oh, and just a warning for those of you on my SGA first-readers filter (you know who you are...), I've got a few things I'd really appreciate some help with, so apologies in advance for any spamming! Things are going to go a bit nuts around here for a couple of days, so I totally understand if you want me to unfilter you. I think I'm going to be driving myself insane, never mind anyone else.

Anyhoo, that's me. How are you all? Skimming through, I see some of you had great weekends and some of you had terrible ones. Give me a highlight or a lowlight? What's going on with you? *peers into LJ-distance* I know you're out there because my reading list is insane...

I keep starting to type up stuff about this weekend and keep getting distracted. Your lives are way more interesting than mine, and I've got about a hundred things going through my head at the moment. But I shall try to concentrate long enough to get this down...

Friday )

Saturday - The Myers Briggs Personality Type Indicators day )

Sunday )
The other thing I could get used to is 4 day weeks! I've got Friday and Monday off so that we've got time to move house, and it's going to be a real shock having to go back to 5 days a week after that. Not that there isn't enough to do, but these long weekends are definitely the way forwards...

ETA: While out on Friday, we were in a shop that actually sold a microwave for the car. Not for a camper van or caravan. For the car. A whole 'plug into the tiny little cigarrette lighter' type thing. Seriously. Why?

Fic posted to [livejournal.com profile] gateverse_remix (Genus: Wraith; Teyla-centric Gen; PG; here). Other fic can be written at home, and there'll be no comments for a while yet (assuming there are any) because America is still at work. Or something. And I can't post the [livejournal.com profile] sgabigbang preview until tomorrow. From work, where there is internet.

Have posted 3 times today. This is more than any friendslist should reasonably be expected to stand for.

Rang the insurers. Insurers computer down. Ringing insurers tomorrow. Need stuff from home to ring other people to change details.

Have moving-type things to do at home. Have no internet at home. Husband also not at home. Which means no dinner until he is at home. There's no incentive to move. Only the long list of stuff to do.

Must leave computer and go home.

Must. Leave. Computer.

*tries to stand up*

*fails*

Nyargh

*stands*

You know, I'm not going to have the internet at all for FOUR DAYS at the end of this week. That's so not worth thinking about...

My name is Jadesfire and I'm an webaholic...
