And most of the cheese.

Do not ask why I am awake at this unholy hour.

So, my week. Well, week and a half. My parents had been planning on hopping over to visit my brother for a bit, do some other random sight-seeing things... The dog is old and feeble and requires a lot of special care, and since my parents were having trouble sitting down and deciding on when to go, they didn't bother booking him and the cat at the kennel. They'd actually asked me a bit ago if I could house-and-pet sit while they were out, and I agreed to, on the conditions that they give me enough warning that I could inform my internship people and wrap up any business here in town, and that there be food in the house. Not, you know, meals, but at least ingredients, yeah? So, last Monday circa 7 pm, my mother contacts me over AIM to let me know they're leaving the next morning, surprise.

( So there was that. )

And then, despite having done nothing much beyond sit all week, I turned on the television to set it up to record later and discovered BBC America was just about to run all of Torchwood: Children of Earth and so somehow I ended up watching that. I did remember to record the Doctor Who special that was on after, at least. (My father wanted to see it, but he was too tired after driving all over the place, so instead of him coming over to watch it, his cassette came over, instead. The poor thing is started to wear a bit thing, but I think the image and sound should be okay...?)

AND THEN I got Aniko watching Doctor Who somehow (???) and right now she's watching the end of series two (Doomsday).


In completely unrelated news, today - yesterday? WEDNESDAY - was the last day of my internship! Now I just need to write a paper and get this all in to the instructor somehow. I am very sad it is over, but at the same time, it is kind of nice? Also, once my current round of blisters clears up, then new ones won't appear. Which, you know, bonus.


Still exhausted all the time, but definitely feeling much better. I hope to be done coughing within the next week or so...

'NOTHER GAME POST

Surprisingly longer than I had anticipated, on account of finishing the game. LAST FFXII RAMBLING POST.

( I hate it when monsters blow themselves up and steal my exp away )

Really I probably could have put those last few sentences outside the cut instead of this. OH WELL.
