My day (so far)

[trilliumgrl]

My hatred of Lexis-Nexus continues. I started a search this morning, which got me 327 hits because I can't do date ranges on the search, only "before" or "after" Bleh. I was working merrily along until noon when I realized that I had to go meet these girls at 1 to take them to rdg's place. So I quickly showered, and dressed, managing to grab a pot of yogurt and a Ryvita on my way out the door. I of course was late (though not much) because I had to stop and get a new bus pass first. Got them over to the flat and set up.



After that I ran back to school and met up with Tom and Julie. Looks like I'm going to Brighton tomorrow. Julie is going house-hunting, doesn't want to go alone, and Tom has plans, so she's paying for my train ticket so I can go with her. We'll see how functional I am, as I will be out till 4am probably and need to catch a train at 9ish. Bleh. Oh well I get to see the ocean!!!! *happy dance*

I also went to the library to see if there was a way of getting special access to Strand Polytech's library for 2 books they have that I need. Nope. Bastards. I had to order them interlibrary loan, which means waiting 1-2 weeks for books that are 6 blocks away, if that. We only have once a month reference access to King's, so I can't just go there and get them. The books are also at UCL, which has the same problem Grrrr *makes nasty faces at Strand Poly and UCL*

After all this is was nearly 4, and I hadn't had lunch. You can imagine how I felt. So, I came home, had lunch, and went through the last 50 Lexus articles. I'm going to run one more search (pre-1995 articles on Patriarch Pavle and Bosnia), work a bit more, and later get ready to head to the Ballroom. It's been a long day. TGIF.

Have fun getting out tonight.

Don't tease the drunk boys too much. ;-)

:P I do NOT tease the drunk boys. I try to ignore them. If one is drunk, one should annoy one's friends, not try to grope random gilrs on the dance floor IMHO Hence, the reason I will put up with Jamie when drunk, he is my friend.

tsk, tsk.. Kyna we all know that you absolutely *love* teasing the drunk boys. ;)

hehehe


Drunkness should be inflicted on friends not strangers? An interesting theory, but not one that most people subscribe to.

[trilliumgrl.livejournal.com]

Friends forgive and tuck you into bed, and make sure you don't get alcohol poisoning. Strangers are merely annoyed and if you're really annoying they kick you in the balls. Friends get blackmail material from drunkenness and halos, strangers just get annoyance. Thus we see my theory is better for all parties involved.

Indeed!

"Be a good friend, don't let your drunk friends go near strangers."

When I find one of those elusive good luck fairies I'll send it to you. :)
Don't have too much fun!

[trilliumgrl.livejournal.com]

Thank you dear, but don't forget to keep one of them for yourself. :)

Good point. I'll hunt down two good luck fairies and send one of them to you. That would be an interesting thing to put on the package description at the post office, contents: One Good Luck Fairy. :)
