girlofpreySo. While I've been out of work, I've been getting up pretty late. Waking up late, and then lying in for a bit. But waking up when it's getting dark, that's a new one.
It's pretty much my own fault though, I think. I had a few goals yesterday, and one was to get up in time to listen to the Adam and Joe show in my flat without having to turn on my computer for the first time, on my shiny new digital radio. Which I did, despite not going to bed, again, until about half past 3 in the morning. After a similar night on Thursday of staying up but still getting up earlier than usual. And not going to bed early last night. Yep.
Yesterday was pretty good though, actually. I did indeed get up in time for the Adam and Joe show. I got three packages in the mail, which my neighbour brought in and knocked on the door to give me, because one was a bit ripped. And they were You Don't Mess With The Zohan, the Fleet Foxes EP, and C.R.A.Z.Y. Which was nice. The envelope that was a bit ripped turned out to be my new bank card. That's only sad because I remember when I used to look at the expiry date on my old card and think "Oh, that's years away!". But oh well. The new one is the same colour as my Eden Project membership card though. That might cause some confusion.
My other goal was to go into town for the first time that week, and to get back before the gales hit. Which I did, although not so much through being early as through the gale not really appearing. It started to rain a bit last night, about 8-ish. I was promised a gale. I pictured being in my flat with food and the heating turned up while the windows rattled. Knowing me, it'll probably hit tomorrow or something, when I actually need to go shopping.
And I stopped into Evolution in town, where they were having a sale, and I got two lovely little jewellery holders that were reduced to £1. It turns out they have lids that come off and smack against the floor very easily, but they're just a bit wobbly now, and haven't actually broken. And I managed to get The Independent, and the free Frost-Nixon interview dvd, which I might not watch until after seeing the film. It was brilliant. Except for the lack of a gale.
In fannish news, I'm not massively a fan of Eastenders except for how STACEY IS AMAZING, but I'm sort of fascinated by how long they're dragging out the Ronnie-Danielle long-lost-daughter storyline. I think Ronnie could now reasonably sing the Johanna song from Sweeney Todd, if she wanted to. There are people who think it's going to go on till March, around Mother's Day. Blimey.
