deathpixieOkay, that has to be one of the more exhausting Auscons ever. Possibly due to the fact Amanda and Phil and I ended up being very naughty Snday night and went to the Joint which is a 24 hour bar.
This explains the lack of entry yesterday - no sleep at all plus a really slow work Internet connection (it went funny yesterday for some strange reason) means Rossi falls asleep on her desk and can't construct coherent sentences. However, I've had fourteen hour's sleep since (I went to bed at 5.30 yesterday afternoon and didn't wake up until 7.30, my usual time, this morning), so I'm awake and functional again. :)
It appears everyone had a good time this weekend. This is good. :)
I got my computer back yesterday - I have yet to turn it on and find out how it is, but I have it back. Apparently the hard drive is developing errors and will need eventual replacement for between $400 and $500. *sighs* Hopefully later rather than sooner. I will be backing everything up on it tonight, and doing that regularly to avoid trauma like last week's. And it only cost me $150. I think the guy I spoke to was new, and that's why the heart attack-inducing quote.
Mum is out of hospital, sans gall bladder. Apparently they're optional in the scheme of things. Bodies are weird like that. Everyone, wish my Mum a speedy recovery. *waves*
And now I have to make up for yesterday with doing lots of work. Fortunately there is lots of work to be done, so I'll be able to redeem myself. So possibly no new bits of "In The Public's Service" to be done today, but never fear, there will be more.
Oh! Amanda gave me a new pair of sneakers! Red sneakers! To replace my other ones which are scarily worn out. I <3 Amanda!
Actually, I <3 the whole Auscon crew. I had a blast this weekend. :)
