Friday on my mind...
It's not often I'm this glad for the arrival of the weekend, but it's been a long hard week. Makes me wonder how I'm going to be, working full time again for the next two weeks. I think I've gotten lazy over the last year. *sighs*
I really do need the money, tho'. Today I got my tax return back, and somehow I owe money. Only $38, but it's the first time I haven't gotten a refund. And this is after working part-time for half the financial year; this sucks arse. Next time, I think I'll get Dad's accountant to do it for me - I must have missed something. Just as well my social life is quiet at the mo', so I can save up for AussieCon.. And Pete's making noises again about people trying to get me put on full-time permanently, although it's getting to the point that I'll believe it when I see it.
Speaking of AussieCon, good news on the Canadian front - Dex has confirmed that he will be there. *happydances* This is a very good thing - ever since the last Dexcon, I've been getting this overwhelming urge to show people my favourite places. Must be the after-effects of having Dex play tour guide to me. *grins*
Ooh, and that reminds me of something else - Mel, you still up for that interview idea of yours? I really liked the sound of it. It's too good an idea to go to waste. *grins* And once 'Draste finishes The Thesis, we'll have a web-page designer handy to do the techie stuff. ;) Any thoughts for preliminary victims?
People - well, some people, will also be glad to know the writing bug has bitten again, and I've actually been working on things. It's how I go - bursts of frantic activity, followed by periods of not much at all. Comes of having a Muse who's a lizard - lizards aren't known for their long attention spans. *ducks* I went looking through my old notebooks - always a scary thing - and found a Subreality fic I'd started for the ElseMuse challenge. *grins* I think I'd better run it past Raph first.
Enough trivialities from me - I'm still so tired my brain won't focus on anything much. Besides, I hear the call of the Bath Gods, and their summons cannot be denied.
