The funny thing about blogging real-life events is that your readers are sometimes your characters

Yay! I managed to log in! Blogger does not like my parents' computer for some reason. I think it is that it was made in the 1920's and runs on punch cards. Punch cards are not IBM compatible even though IBM was pretty big on them back in the day.

There has been some stuff happening lately. Mostly it is essay writing but there is other stuff too. On Sunday I STOPPED WRITING for a while and went into Wellington to have a HIGH-POWERED MEETING about the video. I did not get fired like I kind of expected. Instead I had to talk in very concrete, practical terms about the video. It was quite hard. I liked the video in abstract form. Now we have a shooting schedule and I have a to-do list. I combined the two so now my to-do list has entries like "WAKE UP AT 5am" alongside "BUY JEANS" and "Work out how to convey a whale getting it's heart broken at the realization that a mermaid is in fact a person (via a single thought bubble)" It's a pretty good list. I hope I don't miss anything.

Also on Sunday I saw Richard. Richard rules even though he now looks like a Leb. He has the best job in the world driving a jiant elevator shaped like a train. I got to be one of the guys who talks to the tram driver. I always wanted to be one of them. I also found out the old tram driver is a dirty dirty man. That reminded me of Frank, my former work mate who I haven't seen since I quit. He lives on in my memories/anecdotes as a 64 year-old miming the groping of oversized breasts. He was so cool.

After my HIGH-POWERED MEETING I went and baked biscuits with Elizabeth and Hannah. It was kind of wierd because I still felt rushed and so I was not paying much attention to anything. I think it was my fault that the biscuits sucked, I may have accidently added an extra cup of flour. We watched Gilmore Girls but didn't take much in. I am the worst person to watch GG with as I always talk and complain about the people I hate (April, Rory's new friends, Logan, the writers, even Lorelai these days) luckily the others weren't paying much attention so I got away with it. Mussy did not show up which was a bummer, I don't know if i'll be able to see her before I leave.

After baking I went to Matt's and hung out with Gemma before going back to Emily's and watching Band of Brothers and talking about war heroes. Gemily are so awesome, they are the best team ever. I hope The Huxtabelles actually start making music of their own now.

Nothing much else happened, I had to stay at Matt's because the last bus had gone. I had an enjoyable bus ride the next morning.

Since then I have been pretty much on the computer the whole time. I smell pretty bad and have 12 dirty cups/glasses in front of me. I was going to reward myself with a shower after finishing one of essays but now it seems too late in the day. That is pretty gross, huh?

The essay I finished is pretty mint in some bits but will probably only get a C because my teacher is lame and knows more about Martinique than I do. I came up with a pretty cool idea about different forms of authorship and a text's signifgance existing in social relationships but it wasn't very convincing.

Also, I have fallen in love with a 16 year old who lives in Sweden. She makes the best music I have heard in ages. I will try to write something proper about it once I am less busy.

This post would have had photos but I can't find a USB cable.
