:woot: SNOW!!! What a lovely thing to wake up to! :love: Be careful on those streets Christin :hug:

:telepath: Luck! :clover: I'm sure you'll be fine!

Thankyou, I knew I could rely on you guys. :love: And thankyou Sally too! ^_^
I know. :woot: And thank you. :hug: I can't believe that the temperature dropped by 20° in only a couple of days. :Passout: Last week we had two very heavy storms, but the temperatures were well around 15°C. Now it's below 0°C, something like -5°C or even less. :blink:

Thank you. :smooch:

^_^
 
:eek:ldhi: Helen! :hug: :smooch:

Okay...no grammar test today. :blink: It's been postponed until Tuesday next week. 🤷 Well, that leaves more time for studying. But there's loads of other work I have to do as well. :o_O:

*sigh*
 
I was breaking up my catch up reading into bits, inbetween working (y)

:lol: It's not a who, but a what! Tintern Abbey Yesterday, I read Wordsworth's poem about Tintern Abbey and today, we talked about it in class. Now, I have this crazy desire to go to England and see it! I want to experience what he describes! I am a BIG nerd! :lol:

Ooh, come to England! I'll travel to Tintern Abbey and meet you! :woot: (err if you want :blush:)

felgercarb! felgercarb! felgercarb! I keep forgetting to burn those CDs! :Pinch: I will try to do that tonight or tomorrow, I promise! :smooch:

So, I had one fun thing happen today, and one crappy thing. The crappy thing is that something is wrong with my phone line. It's dead, but they're supposed to have it back on tomorrow. The fun thing that happened is that my office supply guy came to the office today to work up my first supply order. We ended up talking for an hour! We have tons of things in common -- the funniest is that we went to the same college and hung out with some of the same people! :lol: We were trying to figure out how in the world we never actually met because we were at so many of the same places at the same time! :blink: Anyway, I made a cool new friend, I think!

Oh it wasn't intended as a reminder to you - I keep reminding myself to do my CD for you! Last night I didn't burn it, but I DID work on adding music to it. See I'd lined up the songs for Nsspense and Candace's CDs, and then remembered some songs I'd missed. Since then, I've bought new music and was gonna add some of that to it. So last night I went through, adding some songs, and removing others I thought weren't quite right. It started at 56 songs and ended on 40 - I think it ended up a little lower, actually. I MUST remember to add the two Daniel Bedingfield tracks...

Then, I'll post/PM the song list to you, and see if there are any you already have or any you don't like/want, and once that's done, I can burn it. Then post it to you (and the CDs to Nsspense and Candace, and photos to my grandparents). It took all night to work on the playlist though!

The darn fire alarm went off again. This time, they told us that it is malfunctioning. It has been malfunctioning. The resident director said that even though it is malfunctioning, we still have to come outside. My suite-mate and I were like, "Are you crazy? We're staying in our beds!" But, then we found out that not coming out during a fire alarm is a $250 fine. :o_O: Yeesh.

Ouch!

Okay, the dates are:
San Francisco: 28th October to 9th November
Portland: 9th November to 12th November
New York: 12th November to 12th January (I'm basing myself out of NY for two months, but I'm going to make day trips/overnight trips to Washington and Boston then I'm going to Toronto for one weekend somewhere in that period as well...)
Los Angeles: 12th January 24th January... then on the 24th I go back to San Francisco to fly home and I'll come home on the 24th. :( This time next year I'll be pretty much rounding up my trip and desperately planning when my next will be, I'm sure...

^_^

Oh this is so exciting! I'm very jealous ;). Are you gonna keep a travel journal? Or a Blog or something? We could all comment on it then (and friends and family). Sorry - I get excited about travel and photos :D And ooh, you leave the day after my birthday (27th) (you leave on Mellie's birthday, the 28th)!

Uhm... dudes? If you aren't sick of things about me, I might have something else to tell you. That is, if you don't mind?

Like you even have to ask :sternface:

:hug:

:blush: I was going to wait to tell you until I had something official, but I can't back out of things with this now so... :thinking: I'm quitting my job. For real this time too, and everything. I've had a few pretty rough weeks (one in particular 2 weeks ago) and it's at a point now where I wake up in the morning and don't want to go and come home and cry. (n) Some of the things that have happened, you guys wouldn't believe and I'm sure some would convice Meloh to rally the army because of them. :lol: I've been on the phone with the agency just now and I talked with my consultant there this morning about it. I just have to wait for another job to come up with the bank my dad works for, give my notice and I'm gone.

:mellow:

Well I'm sorry you've had such a rough time, but I am so, SO glad you'll be getting out of there! :hug: :smooch: here's to bigger and better things for you :hug:

It's snowing. :Passout: It must have been snowing for a couple of hours already, because when I woke up, the city was completey covered in white. :lovely: I like seeing snow and walking through it when it's all fresh and white. :love: But I've been hearing about car accidents and icy streets all morning, which makes me not like snow again. :lol:

Snow! :Passout:

It's sunny, blue sky with some white clouds here. Apparently there was a dusting of snow on high ground by Bodmin (in Cornwall, a way from us), but nothing here. If I'm having cold, I want it to be worthwhile, damnit!

Enjoy the snow! (and I hope people take better care with driving then).

Back to work *sigh*.

Leaving a :hug: and :smooch: for everyone!

Yep. :smiley: It was very lovely walking to my class. Everything is white, and there is the typical snow smell and the noise one makes in fresh snow. :love: It's still snowing. :Passout: Maybe, if it keeps on snowing, the arrival of the brown and muddy snow-aftermath will wait until Friday or Saturday. :lol:

Snow-:telepath: coming your way. I could send you a snowman, but I'm afraid he'd be a formless waterman when he arrives. :lol:

:console: Just a couple more hours... :hug: :smooch:
 
Still no update on when SD-1 is coming back. Either update, or don't say "down for the night", when it's now 2 days later! :(

Ballpark guesstimate would be helpful.

I'm in the sun right now - streaming through the window, on to me. It's nice.

:baaa: Yeah... :(

Aww, can I have some of your sun? Sun mixed with snow would be even better than just snow. :love:

Snow 1
Snow 2
:love:
 
Well, if you're sure he's okay... ^_^

I'll tuck it away and ask you some rainy day. *nod*

The funny thing is, I never made it to my bed! :lol:

I don't think my humidifier works anymore. My sinuses have felt icky for two days. But I have to think that perhaps it is because I am traveling outside my little box of a room and into musty, old buildings with unsupportive air.
I like to think so.

^_^

Oh, that's sad. Your bed is such a wonderful place to be.

It could be because of all the other places you spend your time. It's also possible that the humidifier isn't meant to help with the kind of ickiness that is your sinuses. Mine are kind of icky too, even with the humidifier. It doesn't make my cold go away, it just helps my nose from drying out.

The darn fire alarm went off again. This time, they told us that it is malfunctioning. It has been malfunctioning.

That sucks. I'm sorry. :console: I got all mad at the end of last semester when I was at school one day and I had to do outside for a fire drill. It was cold and I didn't want to stand out there. Prime laughed at me.

:mellow:
I'm glad you are going to get a better job. :hug: You deserve better than what you are dealing with right now. *nod*

I guess I'll try the bed thing now. I had just gotten into bed when the darn alarm went off. Then, I stayed up finishing Hemingway. But I think I can sleep now. Only ... MelohMom seems to think I might have some illness that I thought she was just telling me to freak me out. Then, I researched the illness and I really have a lot of the symptoms associated with this illness. I think I'm just going to forget about it. I'm sure I don't have it and all these symptoms are due to ordinary things like poor circulation and the like.

Please forget all of that last paragraph. Except the going to bed part. ^_^
'Cept I can't forget about all that because I worry about you. It's like my job. Plus I have this whole curiosity thing inside of me. You must tell me what illness MelohMom thinks you have.

I'm in the sun right now - streaming through the window, on to me. It's nice.
The sun. *sigh* I miss that guy.


I need to get myself out of bed in a few minutes. I really don't want to.
 
:eek:ldhi: melly! :hug: How are you?
I was okay, but then I got the worst Logan news ever and I'm feeling very lost right now and I need my meloh. I'm totally him > :blue: 'cept my face isn't blue and I don't have time at the moment to find a yellow smilie that looks like that.

:eek: Bad Logan news? :cry: I haven't watched last night's episode yet, but I'm here and very curious (or: anxious). I'm not meloh, but you can talk to me... :hug:
 
Oy. I'm so tired. I was so pooped that I went to bed at 9:00 last nigh (fell asleep around 9:40) and woke up this morning at 6:45..but I'm still exhausted...and I don't want to go to class
 
:eek: Bad Logan news? :cry: I haven't watched last night's episode yet, but I'm here and very curious (or: anxious). I'm not meloh, but you can talk to me... :hug:
Thanks. *sniffle*

He wasn't in last night's episode. Not even a little bit. That has nothing to do with my bad news. It was sad to not see him, but I expected it a little.

My bad news came straight from Matt via Ask Aussiello.
Yeah, but it might make you ill. Matt Czuchry thinks Rory and Logan should eventually (yikes!) go their separate ways. "I would love to see Rory single at the end. I just feel like that's the way the show began, with the mother-daughter relationship. It's kind of like Sex and the City with Sarah Jessica Parker and the big question of, 'What is she going to do at the end?' I thought she should have been by herself, because that was the whole through-line of the show. The most important thing for me is that Rory and Lorelai are there together at the end. It should be about the Gilmore girls and them going forward." You know what? As much as I love Logan and Rory, I kinda agree with him.

:blue: I really need to find that smilie. Perhaps I'll have time when I get to school.

I need to be leaving now. If I have time before my class starts I'll check in here. Otherwise I'll be by after my first class.

*insert the sad bye guy here*

eta: Where's my spoiler? :eek: I don't understand! :cry: It's just a blank space. And I don't have time to play with it. If you want to see what I wrote about Logan you can reply to my post and you should be able to see everything that I wrote. I think. :thinking:
 
:baaa: Yeah... :(

Aww, can I have some of your sun? Sun mixed with snow would be even better than just snow. :love:

Snow pictures:
Snow 1
Snow 2
:love:

I'll share my sun (he's moved round to another window now, so not falling on me, just landing in the corner of my eye).

What lovely snow pictures! :love: Thanks for sharing, it cheered me up (wasn't sad, just busy busy) :hug:


Busy, busy, busy! I've raised 7 requisitions today (each takes about 15 minutes), tried to do the timesheets but I need to check what code I input some stuff under, and I have another 5 or 6 requisitions to do :frantic:. Busy bee! Good though, I much prefer the flat out pace like this.

This is why I've not been around, sorry - just 🛴 ing through now to say this is what I'm up to - might try and check in before home time, if not then I'll see you guys at home.
 
Thanks. *sniffle*

I think I know what you're referring to. I just checked spoilerfix.com and there were some huge news. :eek: :Passout: And 🔨 for no Logan in last night's episode... :cry:

Have fun in class. :hug:

Yeah, that's weird. Maybe they aren't working when you put smilies or pictures in the tags. I tried to tag my snow pictures and that spoiler miraculously disappeared as well. :blink:
 
Well, felgercarb. I had quotes, dangit! Where are they? Let's see what I can remember.

One day, Helen, I'll make it to you and Tintern Abbey. One day. ^_^

Look how pretty the snow is! Thanks for the pics, Christin. And I'm sorry your test was postponed. But that does mean more study time, so it's good, right? :hug:

Melly!? What is this disastrous news you speak of? I'm thinking all sorts of scary things now. I'm sorry I wasn't up earlier today when you needed me. :( Many :hug: for you. Please tell me what's going on!

:eek:ldhi:

We'll try the spoiler tag again and this time I'll only put the text in it.

From Ask Ausiello when asked if he had any Rory/Logan news:
Yeah, but it might make you ill. Matt Czuchry thinks Rory and Logan should eventually (yikes!) go their separate ways. "I would love to see Rory single at the end. I just feel like that's the way the show began, with the mother-daughter relationship.

What crazy sad news! Will DR do this? Is this the last season? Will Rory and Logan be split in just a few months time? And didn't Matt say something completely different a while back? Enough with the questions. This is sad news. I'm sorry you had to read this, Melly.

Of course, he does have a point -- but they'd both need to be single at the end. And they're not going to both be single at the end. Are they??

:console: :console: :hug: :smooch:
 
*sigh*

Lorelai isn't going to be single. Warning of big spoiler that I know you won't mind hearing, but in case someone else is reading this....word on the street is that she's going to be married to Luke (sorry *insert console smilie*) and maybe pregnant. I guess everyone is on board for an eight season 'cept Alexis so they are making plans for doing the next season without her. Making it more about Lorelai and Luke. I don't know if they'd really do it. If they are why couldn't Rory have moved off to New York or London with Logan? Why would she have to be alone? I just know that I've heard talk of Rory being single at the end of the season/series before and hearing it out of Matt's mouth makes me nervous. My heart hurts. I don't know if I can write you your PM today. Maybe later. It would just be depressing right now and that's no fun.

I can't find my smilie. I know it's out there. I just know it. I have, however, found some very disturbing ones.
