So I started this week with feelings of loneliness and inadequacy. I dunno... just not feeling particularly close to anyone, feeling a lack of close contact, feeling as though the life I was living was a bit of a sad one without enough variety or adventure, and on top of that missing my old-school fandom life, missing the hubbub of Livejournal and ( Read more... ) -

I finally finished The Assassination of Gianni Versace today and it was not nice.
I was really excited about seeing something with Darren Criss in that would be so unlike his Glee character but honestly, after following it closely for several weeks, I had to switch off because it was just so disturbing. The way the murders were committed, that ( Read more... ) -

Hah, so I just had a very interesting weekend where several things happened. On Saturday I went up to Windsor to see a friend's play but what we didn't realise was that there was a match at Twinkenham. Ergo - RUGBY FANS EVERYWHERE. The trains were packed there and back and some idiot was playing his Alexa speakers loudly to the whole carriage on ( Read more... ) -

I just had a well-deserved steak and chips from one of my favourite takeaways and it was sooooooooooooooo good. I know steak costs money, but I couldn't help it; was working all weekend and things were a little intense, both physically and emotionally. I'm really tired. Today was a little draining, as we had evac-chair training and I was terrified ( Read more... ) -

Honestly, my life feels so boring these days; I don't feel I have a lot to say or share. I'm by no means unhappy - I'm far less depressed and anxious than I used to be - but my life is so repetitive.
I really wish I could move out of my flat as I need breathing room but there's a month to go on the contract and my housemate has informed me that my ( Read more... ) -

So, I don't know if anyone's had this problem and it's probably not a problem at all, but:
There's a reader on Ao3 who keeps leaving fresh feedback on my History Boys fanfic; just brief one-liners, every couple of months. I know they probably don't mean any harm and I know I should appreciate the support, but... I'm finding it slightly annoying? I ( Read more... ) -

A friend and I tried to get tickets for the Darren Criss gig in London later this month and both times, we failed. :( I hadn't seen her for six months, though, and it was nice of her to think of me when she asked if I wanted to go. It's a shame we weren't able to do it, as I would have loved it and would have loved to have gone with her. Hopefully ( Read more... ) -

Today: sickday for Ellie. I pushed myself too hard day before yesterday and came home exhausted, coughing and wrung out. The next day, after a few moments contemplation, I made the decision to go into work anyway, figuring I'd be okay once I got going and grabbed some breakfast onsite. It soon became very clear, very quickly, that I'd made a ( Read more... ) -

I have been really enjoying re-discovering Cabin Pressure this week. I say re-discovering as opposed to listening because I haven't really listened to any of the episodes properly in, well, a long time, not since I needed to sit through Kuala Lumpur a couple of times as part of a Martin and Arthur-centric piece I was working on. But now, I'm ( Read more... ) -

Firstly, thanks so much for the kind words of encouragement about my completion of Going Anywhere! I'm still really pleased and so glad that I don't have to worry about it anymore; although the response wasn't massive, I got some really kind comments, congratulations for finishing it (some of which made me properly squee!) kudoses and a few more ( Read more... )
