One problem at a time…

Studies!

Terrible things seem to be looming over the horizon. The exams look remarkably unfriendly, but for now I first have to deal with a test on Friday that involves too much studying. It’s not looking too bad, just not very good, although the forecast is less optimistic for the exams. That said, let’s take it one problem at a time.

Checking It Out

I was puzzled as to why my Hazards Of Love order was taking so long, so I dropped the Decemberists Store an email on Monday evening. The reply came somewhere in the middle of the night yesterday, and it appears that it got lost in the sorting process and is now presumably on its way, with a signed booklet to boot.

Lovely, prompt service. Great stuff. Just makes your day a whole lot more pleasant.

I just want to get a first listen to it now, though, so I really can’t wait.

Two Episodes

Went through two more episodes of Doctor Who‘s Series 4 (one a day), and the impression was a whole lot better. The Pompeii episode had those really beautiful sets and a really nice volcano, and the script was sharp. The Ood episode after that worked very well for me, for some reason, though the lines were sometimes a little dull. And Sontarans in the next story. Simply brilliant.

For Today…

Signals lecture, plus I want to finish up notes for my cell biology. Not terribly exciting, but at least it won’t kill me. Sometimes that’s all you’re ever going to get.
