I got things done today! I called my bank to arrange a transfer of money from my ISA to cover my bills for Redemption. I normally dread this, because due to a mix-up and the takeover of my bank by another bank, I only seemed to have my old details for my ISA, which weren't in the right format for my bank to now do anything with. Which basically meant whenever I called there was a lot of umming and ahhing, then security questions I obviously couldn't answer well enough, and then they'd say no and I'd have to go in and do it over the counter. I upgraded my account and got all new details last year, but I haven't used it since then. Today however all my details seemed to be good enough and in good order, and I managed to get it all done. The only problem was the phoneline - it was so quiet I could barely hear anything they were saying, which when people are asking you security questions isn't always great. Also the people I spoke to were either Scottish or Irish - I can't always tell those accents apart for some reason - so they had accents, and I could barely hear them, and occasionally they just spouted boilerplate at me very quickly. Which wasn't brilliant. But I'm pretty sure overall the money came from where it should and is going where it should. Which, according to the terms and conditions I got sent with my new details, means it should be in my current account by Thursday at the latest. Which is win.

Also I emailed my Employment Coach, which I've been meaning to do for a week or two now. Which means that barring packing and washing my hair, I have done everything I need to do before going to Redemption this weekend. Hurrah! I still can't quite get my head around the fact that I have tomorrow to pack, and then I have to be off, on a train, on Thursday. For some reason I'm pretty convinced that should be Friday, but it isn't. But like I say, I've done everything I need to do, pretty much.

Also, I ordered some things from overseas a few weeks ago, and the last of them came in the post today. So I can stop waiting for them and worrying they're lost in the post or something.

Also, I finished all the sidequests I am planning to do in Mass Effect, so I can get back on with the main storyline. Benezia here I come.

Also, I watched episode 5 of The Following. ( Spoilers )
