two days

Sunday I was supposed to see lauperr at around 2pm but when I got up in the morning I texted to delay it until 4pm so I could get my debian installation finished and out of the way. First big mistake of the day.

bouncykaz had a go at me for having my priorities wrong so I logged out of IRC, picked up my coat and got on my bike. Had a lovely time with lauperr and watched AntiTrust as well as having my second big meal that day. We then went off to the pub quiz as planned, had a game of pool first. Mr C turned up (yey!) so we won free drinks. djkoa couldn’t make it because of interesting theatre work he’d been doing.

Anyway, when laura realised I was planning on biking back to Bourne at 11:30pm she said it was too dangerous and asked her mum if I could stop the night. That made me feel awkward as I wasn’t really properly invited and I sensed the sleeping arrangements might cause friction. Anyway, when we got back to her house, laura was desperate for the loo and while she was distracted I grabbed my bike and set off into the night. Second big mistake of the day. It honestly seemed like a good idea at the time, but looking back it was very rude and stupid.

A two and a half hour phone call later and lauperr no longer wanted to cause me physical harm and we were chatting happily again. Phew. (can’t wait for the phone bill!)

Today (Monday) was mainly spent breaking Linux installations but I did leave the house twice, shock horror! Once was to go to the opticians to get a free eye test while I still can. Apparently I have pretty much perfect vision. Possibly very very slightly long sighted. Considering I was expecting to come out needing glasses, I was pretty pleased when I could read most of the bottom line of letters in the smallest print.

Watched The Green Mile with the family and did more Linux hacking, this time with a bit more patience which means I’m getting on quite well witha debian installation (mark III).

Tomorrow lauperr is coming round so I’d better get some sleep.
