Well, that was a slightly longer than usual gap between posts, wasn't it? I blame the weather - no, seriously. We've had massive electrical storms just about every night for the last few weeks. It's been insane. The central section of town got closed down today because of the hail drifts - yep, that's right, hail drifts blocked all the streets and car parks. The Uni, a bunch of schools and government departments had the day off - not mine, of course.

In two weeks today that I leave for Europe - this time in a fortnight I'll be sitting in plane flying to KL, if all goes according to plan. Plane tickets are booked, accommodation in France is sorted, britrail/eurostar passes paid for - after paying that much money, it's starting to feel sort of real. Wow.

Right, I'm going to take advantage of the continuing break in the storms to actually read my flist - since there isn't a hope in hell of me actually catching up, let me know if I've missed anything vitally important?

Hmm! Well, if you haven't been reading LJ since your last post, Aelfgyfu has a new fic up, which I recced here. And sg_fignewton continues to rec lots of good fic- she's just posted her end-of-month-summary yesterday, and I think there was another of her canon vs. fanon pieces while you were out.

Welcome back.. drifts of hail, eh? One of the things I really like about having my own wireless network is I can stay online without endangering anything, even when the weather is crummy. I just unplug and run on battery power during the storm.

Thanks for the heads up - I'll check them out.

I have wireless, but unfortunately the battery on my laptop is on its last legs and only manages about 10 minutes without being plugged in. It's been on my list of things to replace for a while now, but I've just never gotten around to it. Maybe now I finally will.
