Happy friday!
Sep. 10th, 2004 10:37 amTwo days off to bask in the sun certainly make for a better end of the week than usual ;)
And i have shiny new windows to boot! They only actually took one day to put in, but there was no way I was wasting what was probably the last decent day of the year by coming into this shithole, when I had an almost valid excuse to stay home.
I was quite productive tho and cut the grass and attempted to cut some of the manic hedge (see the car photos for a glimpse of it) but got bored after taking ages just to cut the gate free and phoned A Man who called round and said he'd do it next week for a quite exorbitant sum, but what the hell, beats actually effort on my part :p And it is a very big hedge.
In horse news, we're coming along slowly. The hardest part is trying to vary the walking route each night so she doesn't get too bored with the endless plodding. Hopefully next week we can start being a bit more active so we'll both enjoy it more. She's looking well tho (apart from the huge grass belly), must get a photo.
In discworld news, I finally made it to Decrepit. Tho only after Taffyd MEANLY ousted me from CWC :~(
To be fair, it must be over a year at least since I've done any kind of coding and altho I'd like to say 'I'll come back' and mean it, in reality, I won't really have the time or inclination anytime soon. Plus I'd have to start from scratch all over again.
But as FATE would have it, just as I found this out, I also got hold of the very elusive Gruper on icq and LO i got retired and hired into Decrepit, so now I can log on guilt free and ramble aimless in the finest tradition of Old Folk everywhere ;)
I thoroughly enjoyed my time in CWC tho and it feels sad to no longer be officially part of it. I could go on but then it would turn into one of those dreaded 'i love you guys' fluff post things.
But hey, I love you guys!
