Jun. 9th, 2008 09:19 pmTo make a very long story short, I will be scarpering to Ormskirk tomorrow evening. I will be around for pretty much no time at all - fingers crossed, I will arrive before midnight on Tuesday night and will be leaving around midday on Thursday - but yes, I will be there and probably not online. If anyone is in the vicinity, it would be nice to see them but I can't really make any promises. Let me know via the telephone, okay?
Now, there are those of you who might question the wisdom of driving for six hours after a shift at work. I am one of them. I am generally not in favour of being in my smoke and mild insanity filled house, ALLOW ME TO ASSURE YOU OF THAT. The advantags of being home are generally Simon and friends; the first, well, I have attempted contact and am getting nowhere so if anyone does see him then please make him pick up the goddamned phone because I have questions and owed money and am at the stage where I am willing to be petty and that is neither here nor there ANYWAY and as for friends, I won't really have time for a decent catch-up with anyone. WOE.
However, I need a bit of inspiration for why I want to spend my summer learning the Fat Philosophy as part of the Fat Family (oh, I wish I was joking, I really did, I hate corporate shit) and, well, to be honest, I could do with a wee bit of time away. It may, or may not, help to clear my head. I also need to drop off some of the winter stuff - thicker quilt, blankets, stuff like that - to try and make moving out a bit less painful in two months time. And finally, to basically cut a lot of time of disseration research, I'm instead just going to go through my A-Level folders so I have a thorough understanding of the events and politics of the Civil War and Interregnum so I can make a straight bash at doing the side I'm focussing on.
Also I can empty the fridge.
Either way, it will make me glad to be back in St Andrews for the summer, and that is no bad thing at all.

Date: 2008-06-10 10:21 am (UTC)seriously, it's been increasingly hard to know what to say to you lately, since we haven't seen each other in so long - our lives are diverging on a scale never before seen. or something. so yeah... i really hope the trip home, while short, allows you some relaxation or at least that the usual frustrations remind you of how glad you were to leave it all behind. i'm glad and proud of you for doing well in uni and for getting your dissertation approved - i'm not even attempting one, in favour of playing euphonium all day and night :)
and yes, general good wishes your way. if everything keeps being crap here there is a chance i will go and live in edinburgh for a couple of months, in which case it would be more arrangeable to meet up, yes?
much love.
