That idiot in Washington and his environmental delusions
Real post coming soon. Honest!
In the mean time, here is a bit I lifted from an article in The Independent. This is from the President's speech in Washington yesterday:
'In recent years, science has deepened our understanding of climate change and opened new possibilities for confronting it.'
Translation: In recent years, my refusal to ( Read more... ) -
Happiness
I swear I am one of the luckiest people in the world! I have a lovely home - it really is the first time in a long while that I've had a home. I share my home with the most amazing man on this planet, whom I love very much. I am very busy with my classwork, and despite some frustrations and setbacks, I'm loving what I do. I'm still waiting to ( Read more... ) -
'Everything' (or so they say)

Moving!
I think most of the people who read this will already know (cause I just told most of ya!), but I'm posting about it anyway! I'm moving!! Jack and I found a nice flat in Anlaby. We're probably going to be living out of boxes for a while since we're poor as church mice and can't afford much in the way of furniture. But I am so happy!! -
Geeky yumminess

Spring!
According to the calendar, today is the first day of Spring. I woke up to more snow on the ground than on any one day in winter, and it was still coming down! Figures. I guess it is a good excuse to hole up and get some solid work done. But I'd lay £10 on my boss calling to beg me to work tonight when 75% of her staff calls in. -
Happy News!
I'm in a good mood at the moment! I've been terribly stressed and unhappy lately. Just a combination of stuff that has added up to me being a mess and working hard to keep it together amidst the craziness. Generally optimistic, but aware that I was all too near that point where I could crack. Sometimes more in one area than another. But I ( Read more... ) -
I know... I know... I'm terribly late
I have been sufficiently chastised for my lack of updates on many fronts. So here is an attempt at a recap...
While I have been known to post novel-length posts, I'm thinking I'll break this one up cause otherwise it may be the War And Peace of LJ posts. And I rather doubt I will reach Tolstoy's eloquence.
So here is what's been happening in my ( Read more... ) -
Randomness
Interesting things I learned today:- When my clutch pedal flaps, that is BAD.
- In moments of stress, Lizzy and I can consume a box of Cadbury Fingers in record time.
- Sometimes a pathetic sob story will get you a refund even when the terms and conditions say you cannot have one. Being cute helps with this.
- Sometimes having wonderful plans completely ( Read more... )

Christmasy Stuff!
Hello out there Christmasy world! I'm very festive this year. :) And I have a tree!! I am ridiculously excited about that. As soon as I had money (Yes, my loan check finally arrived), I went out and bought a real tree and some deco stuff. Well, first I bought food. But then I bought a tree! My tree sorta has a theme - it is all red and gold ( Read more... )
