I feel I should excuse the lack of decent updates, but I don't really have much to defend myself with. I haven't been spectacularly busy, no matter how soon the coursework essay's due in (5 days and counting).
I bought the first issue of
Loose Lips Sink Ships. It smells wonderful, and I'm looking forward to reading it. I have actually been doing some reading of late. I've read a couple of poetry books by Edna St Vincent Millay, and I'm currently on a book of Robert Frost poems. Poetry books are good to read, as they're rarely over 100 pages long, and still count towards my goal of reading 10 to 15 books by the summer.
Plans to go to Sheffield for a weekend in a fortnight or so are underway. I haven't seen Cinnamon in so long, I doubt he'll remember me but it would be nice if he did. I want to see Tom and Jennie (at least I think she's called Jennie) again too, they're nice people and I can probably talk them into giving me a hug or two. Tom suggested organising a mini B3ta bash, which sounds fun, as long as it remains "mini" only. I don't know if people will want to come and meet me though, as I started a bit of an argument yesterday around the usefulness, or lack of, of children, and another argument earlier in the day around phobias, mental health and how friends and relatives of those who suffer with them should try to help the person cope with it. In summary, I don't think I made myself any friends. Nevermind, there are worse things which could happen.
