Holidays...
There are two things I really dislike about going on holiday - the three days before I go and the week after I get back, because the former is when I completely panic about everything I haven't got done yet, and the latter is when I realise that there are way too many people out there with my work email address.
Which is a long way of saying - I'm going away on Wednesday morning, back to the lit fest to volunteer, for two weeks, and I did not need today to be quite so much of a Monday. I slept through my alarm, my bus didn't show, I was late for my first meeting, late for my second, went to pick up a pair of jeans and a pair of trousers from the repairer and didn't discover till I got home that they only gave me my jeans, my DVD player decided to die on me (it's two months old!), I sent out a mass email with the wrong month on it, I appear to be broke for no apparent reason and... yeah. Pre-holiday panic, which, sadly, doesn't get any better for me knowing that's what it is.
Also, sign language class starts again tomorrow evening, and I can't remember the sign for 'work,' which is just pathetic.
I'll be so happy when I'm actually at the lit fest, where if nothing else, I'll be too busy to panic any more.
I'll have internet access at the festival, just not a massive amount of time to use it, so if you've got something you urgently need to say to me, or really want a reply to, now's the time to say it :o) Otherwise, see you in a couple of weeks (someone poke me if sign-ups for sg-flyboys open while I'm gone, okay? I'm counting on you guys!)
