Back from Surrey now. Was definitely an interesting trip. Pity I didn't get to see more of more people. I'll try and remedy that in the summer, but I won't be about too much then either. It's this whole working thing (which I'm doing again tomorrow, thanks to a phone call last night).

I keep planning long and interesting posts, but I really don't have too much to say. I've actually trained myself out of self-analysis on lj. Toast is training me to do it outloud now, instead.


In terms of self-discovery, I can say that I lack self-confidence, but have probably too much pride. I can usually disguise one with the other, but sometimes the two act in union in a very negative way. I'm a pessimist, but generally a positive person. Very self-conscious, and tend to react badly to people who aren't thinking about how their behaviour might be construed by others. It's a 'you hate most in others what you hate most in yourself' thing. I don't miss people, but I'm always happy to see them again. I can't understand people who don't let things go, because I'm pretty much incapable of holding a grudge myself. I can understand why people think certain things are aimed at them, but as a general rule I find if you think that, then it's probably not and the person it is aimed at still remains oblivious. This goes for both positive and negative things. There's a limit to what I'll stand being teased about, and for how long. I'm quite happy to laugh at myself, but 'min got drunk' is a pretty boring joke, especially the seventh or eighth time round. An advantage of coming back to York is I won't be hearing it solidly for the nect two months from my sister.

You are not a unique and beautiful butterfly. You are just like everyone else. Your experiences are not confined solely to you. Trust, relax, get on with your life.

And yes, I am using 'you' to mean 'me' ^_^ Now I'm even talking to myself online.


To do list:
- See Toast off
- Get apple cake
- buy fresh stuff (meat, vegetables, milk)
- buy TT22, and thingy for keeping comics in
- do magazine work (and find out what magazine work I'm still meant to be doing)
- create accounting thingy on Excel
- pay almighty_frog the money I still owe her
- get Natwest online working, because otherwise I have £6
- fill in loan form (or decide I don't need a loan...)

Oh, any Hellblazer/Constatine/Warren Ellis fans, there's an unpublished comic online, floating around because it's about a school shooting, and was due to come out too close to the columbine shootings. Pretty interesting, pretty good.

ETA: I seem to have done half of most of the jobs today. I did do half the magazine work, but I couoldn't think of a good way to show that with a strike. ^_^

Don't we all plan long and interesting posts? The problem being when I do "long and interesting" nobody reads them. I suppose I have a very specialised sense of interesting.

. . . you haven't paid me the money you owe me.

damn, must have failed to close a tag somewhere in there. oops!

BTW (since I'm here, and the appropriate post to rely to is somewhere else) I do like the look of the new solelyfictional page. Amused that you mentioned the Authority fansite seperately, but not the huge sprawling tangle of the WK fansite. Probably best just leaving it without either, if it's not too much trouble.

::snerk:: Well, I thought about mentioning it, and then couldn't figure out how I was supposed to summarise that in one sentence. Mentioning the Authority fansite was easier, though I'll take that out if you want. ^^ Anyways, yay, you likes the layout! XD
