Full on back to work mode engaged. . . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
Two weeks off and I’m like a kid on the last day of the holidays. Meh. I think I need another holiday now. . . still, at least I’m going back on a Thursday. It’s a standing policy for me to never...
I kind of called that. in It's a llittle llazy over here
Voted Remain, but once the gap had closed to 50/50 with a week or so to go, I always thought that the polls would underestimate the final turnout for Brexit due to people who were voting Leave bu...
I am tiiiired. in It's a llittle llazy over here
More tired than usual. This month is shooting past, and it feels a lot like I’m treading water at work. I do have two weeks off in July, which will be nice. Other than that, things are just drift...
And so. . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
. . . after eight years, my little car finally bit the dust and we had to old yella’ it. I pick up my new car next weekend. Since I do naff-all mileage in it, I’m getting a city-car. No tax, a...
Review done. . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
Woo. Will find out what rating I have achieved in May. And there will be little to no rejoicing because if I’ve got anything other than the middling rating that I expect it will be a major surpri...
The sun is out, the sky is blue. . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
. . . and you can practically hear the weeds starting to grow. One of the things about being all domesticated now is that I have a garden. This garden hates me. Everything in it hates me. The r...
Long time no llama in It's a llittle llazy over here
It’s almost March. Work feels like I’m tap dancing on quicksand. Technically I’m on top of everything, but all the while I’m waiting for things to go wrong very badly very fast. It’s performance ...
Merry Christmas and the happy New Year. . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
. . yes. The forecast for 2016 is llamas all over the place. Be warned, and do not adjust your set. Have a good New Year, y’all. . .
It's starting to feel a lot like llamas. . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
Or amas, unless I can fix my laptop. The l key is erratic. Works every other time. I’m sure you can imagine that this is not the ideal key for me to lose, of all people. No. Christmas is next wee...
New floor is new. in It's a llittle llazy over here
And it is nice. How amazingly domestic. I have lost the use of my down and left arrows. I used to use those all the time, but now they just make an unsatisfying thudding sound and nothing happens...
Really October already? in It's a llittle llazy over here
Who’d have thought it. . . . We are having our new downstairs floors put in on Wednesday. We’re having laminate through the hallway, living room and dining room and sheet vinyl in the (tiny) kitc...
This weekend I will mostly be doing. . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
. . . nothing. And loving every minute of it. I will force my carcass out for a short run tomorrow, though. The fitbit judges me otherwise. I like my fitbit. . . it’s not that it has any real ide...
Itchy and scratchy part 3? in It's a llittle llazy over here
Well then. . . So, I went to the doctor and got some short term prescriptions to calm down the flare, which is nice. Give it a couple of weeks and we reassess. I should be in decent shape by the...
Mission accomplished. in It's a llittle llazy over here
We found llamas. The holiday was nice . . . it was good to get away and lasted just long enough for us to be glad to be coming home, but not so long that we had any days where we were wishing tha...
Neeeeearly. in It's a llittle llazy over here
A week and a half to go. Seven more working days. Woo. I have a new phone incoming. The power button on my old S3 has always had a fault where it thinks it’s being pressed all the time, so it get...
Four weeks to holiday. . . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
. . . woo! The magic pills have done their magical stuff and I look much less like a sunburned giraffe now. . . Let’s just hope that it stays that way now. Meh. We shall see. I’m now two for two ...
Scratchy and itchy. . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
. . . so to update, the nice doctor gave me a repeat prescription of the steroid ointment, and I’m on a course of oral steroids. Hopefully that’ll at least get/keep the crazy rash under control ...
Itchy and scratchy in It's a llittle llazy over here
. . . more so the first bit. Though I’d be lying if I said I was avoiding the second bit. I’ve pretty much given up trying to understand what my skin is doing to me. Today, my back is sore. By th...
Interviews this week. in It's a llittle llazy over here
So much fun. I get to interview for my matched position this week, and likely the others the week after. This is going to be . . . odd. Normally, you would of course be interviewed by your prospe...
Soooooooo. . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
Been a while. The bathroom is done, and it looks generally fabulous. Every thing we do to the house makes it more ours and less the house we inherited. If we can get rid of the carpets that would...
Holidays! in It's a llittle llazy over here
Well. . . I’m not at work. This is a holiday by definition, I suppose. Actually, I’ve been at home while the builders are in replacing our bathroom. It looks wonderful already. Admittedly the bat...
There is something . . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
. . . oddly fascinating about a mechanical watch. I currently have four watches that I wear, plus another one that’ll be sold at some point in the near future. It’s not quite a ‘collection’ . . ....
At least this year. . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
. . . it’s shaping up to be a close. Superbowl. If you’re going to stay up until stupid o’clock, the last thing you want is for the second half to be a procession where you really should just cal...
And the women were mopping in the streets . . . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
So . . . standard not going to bed before Monday morning entry . . . Woo. We saw a random film on Netflix the other day - Arn, the Knight Templar. Kind of a meh film that I do not recommend, exce...
Nothing cures faster. . . in It's a llittle llazy over here
. . . than booking a doctor’s appointment. The eczema is a lot better right now. at least on my arms. It’s hard to know why. We went and got some different detergent for the washing machine just...
