Update on the boiler situation: Arrrrgh now I'm not getting hot water from my boiler when I put the damn thing on AT ALL - timed or boost or anything. How the fuck am I supposed to have a shower?
- 12:36 I r so smrt. Left my secret santa present at home. (Grr.) Have had to go home at lunch to get, so now no time for food. :( #
(or at least, I MIGHT have had time for food if my taxi had arrived on time, and the driver driven at more than 15mph :P) - 18:55 Why are community pharmacists teh suck? :( I'm still here and the git has gone home and left me in limbo. Should I just go home? Grr. #
(Lady rang up at 17:25 and asked about an insulin delivery device that her local pharmacy couldn't get hold of (Novo Nordisk didn't send one out, we're not sure why), and we liaised with her community pharmacist to be able to supply one - we had to get one off the diabetes centre. The guy was supposed to get in contact with her, then bleep my Boss's bleep so we could phone him back, and he'd tell us he'd made contact and we were okay to send the thing out to the patient by taxi. I wait until 18:30... nothing. I ring his pharmacy... answerphone. Git has just pissed off home and not kept up his end of the bargain. I had to phone my boss at his home and ask what had been arranged, and we ended up just taxi'ing the thing out to the patient ANYWAY. Grrr.) - 18:59 Next story has a title, BTW! "Future Tense" lol pun #
- 23:14 My braaaaaiiiiin is meeeeeltinggg. #

BTW I got your card in the mail yesterday. Thank you _so_ much, it's lovely and the stickers are awesome!

Date: 21 Dec 2008 02:50 pm (UTC)Yeah, "Future Tense" is sort of "SBM3" ;) So named because it's set in the future, and the characters are tense! Bwahaha, pun. I'm not sure I'll actually get as far as writing the thing, though - partly because I've got to finish "Warped" first, and partly because stories involving time-travel make my brain go a'splodey.
Glad you liked the card. :)

Date: 22 Dec 2008 10:06 pm (UTC)I read a few of McCaffrey's books when I was at school, but not since. :)
...Time travel makes my brain hurt in whatever form it takes, so I have NO idea why I'm thinking of writing about it. :'( I'm'a go sit with Warp in the Stupid Corner.
Edit: Why have I got someone else's icon there? *is confused*

Date: 22 Dec 2008 11:07 pm (UTC)Even as an adult I still find it a great series to watch. The CGI is crappy by today's standards but it was considered to be inovative when the show first aired. I find it considerably less campy than G1 and the smaller cast of characters is very well developed. I'd _really_ recommend watching it, but then I suppose I'm biased. ;)
In regards to the Anne McCaffrey books, the thing I was getting at was how similar Skywarp's ability to teleport is to the dragons' inate ability to go *between*, complete with the fact that if you don't have a good visualization of where you're going you're fucked. In the series it was discovered that dragons could go *between* times as well and that some things, like the five Weyrs disapearing and the Long Intervals were 'meant' to happen.
Alright, I'll stop geeking out now. XD
