Had a lovely time with <a href=\"http:\/\/lauperr.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">lauperr<\/a> 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. <a href=\"http:\/\/djkoa.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">djkoa<\/a> couldn&#8217;t make it because of interesting theatre work he&#8217;d been doing.<\/p>\n<p>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&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>A two and a half hour phone call later and <a href=\"http:\/\/lauperr.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">lauperr<\/a> no longer wanted to cause me physical harm and we were chatting happily again. Phew. (can&#8217;t wait for the phone bill!)<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p>Watched The Green Mile with the family and did more Linux hacking, this time with a bit more patience which means I&#8217;m getting on quite well witha debian installation (mark III).<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow <a href=\"http:\/\/lauperr.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">lauperr<\/a> is coming round so I&#8217;d better get some sleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>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.
