A quick update of my weekend:

- Had a blackout on Friday night. Was not impressed. Sat around the house from 7 to 8.30pm realising that I couldn't do anything. I couldn't cook tea, I couldn't watch Buffy or Angel, or Hornblower (I'm now two episodes behind...), I couldn't surf the net, I couldn't listen to music... I just realised that there is very little I can do without electricity. I couldn't even have a bath, because I didn't trust myself to shave by candlelight!

- On Saturday, I spent the morning arranging NY's holidays for me, mum and younger brother. It'll be really good, if I remember to go in this afternoon and pay the rest of the deposit.

- Saturday night, around 11pm, I realised that I hadn't returned Schindler's list from last weekend, and decided to watch all the Amon scenes again, since I'd probably have to pay for a week anyway... I take it back about my comments on the slashiest scenes. The slashiest scene is probably the second last time Schindler sees Amon (set on the balcony again, and there is actual physical contact between them... *g*). I am not writing more SL slash. I'm not. Really... I have SV stuff to do first...

- Sunday was stuffed because I didn't sleep much the night before (see above for reason why *g*). Completely forgot about Hornblower, so I'm so glad that mum reminded me. Basically, we'd just watched Angel, stopped the tape, and saw Hornblower on TV.
Mum: Isn't that the show you like.
Me: Yeah... Hornblower.
Mum: Do you want to tape it?
Me:... That'd be good.
Mum: Why don't you just fastfoward after Buffy, and tape it.
Me:... okay.

(As you can see, I wasn't really thinking. Woke up this morning and almost kicked myself for forgetting that I have a Hornblower tape with two episodes so far, and that I was going to tape the new ones on it.)

- Now we're up to today. I'm tired due to not getting to sleep til 2.30am (hot day, by the time it cools down enough to think, I should've already been in bed.)

Why is it that I basically did nothing, but my friends have managed to write 50+ entries! None of us have lives, do we? *g*

Meanwhile, I actually have work to do this arvo, and I've already used up my lunch hour, so I'll have to fix the fic sometime tomorrow,
