4.


1) gym: Am still going to the gym most days. Still feeling like I stick out like a sore thumb but still going and still working hard, so at least that's something.

2) work: Back to work tomorrow (albeit part-time for now) after a bit of a break. Am dreading it more than I can say. They already have a meeting lined up for Wednesday with me, my line manager and unit manager which sounds like it's going to be extrememly stressful and unpleasant (for me) so any good luck vibes anyone feels like throwing out there would be appreciated. I would give pretty much anything at this point to be able to afford to leave that place.

3) comm & flist cut: Did a little tidy up of the communities I belong to/watch a couple of days ago so will likely follow that with a flist cut shortly. Some of us are following each other out of nothing more than habit now which isn't a reason to be on anyone's flist; I like my flist manageable enough that I can read all the entries and for it to be interactive, which is why I keep it relatively small, and if we're not interacting and/or are not interested in what each other is saying, then what's the point, yeah?

4)fandom:

a) does anyone know when the new series of Lewis is going to air?
b) todays [livejournal.com profile] h5o_daily post made me smile.
c) I swear I saw a fic posted recently, a modern AU where Merlin and Arthur are both fathers whose kids go tp the same school, and they've both seen each other but wrongly assume the other is straight. Or something. I think it was a WIP which is why I never bookmarked it but now I can't seem to find it and I'm starting to think I imagined it. Did I?
d) this series of being human is great so far.



Hope you're all okay ♥

Good luck with being back to work!

You don't mean the fic wherein the kids fight, do you?

Im still 2 eps behind with bh but loving it too :D

Thanks, I'll definitely need it.

I don't think so, I'd have to see the summary to know for sure though.

I'm pleasantly suprised with BH so far, really enjoying it =)

[identity profile] chaosmaka.livejournal.com 2011-02-21 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Hope you'll be fine!

I thought about this one...

:)

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2011-02-21 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I don't think it's that one. I didn't actually read any of it, just the summary, which was pretty much as I've said above, and there was nothing in it about fighting I don't think. I'm SURE I didn't imagine it.

Thanks for trying though =)

Oh my god, that H50 post! ♥_♥

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2011-02-21 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
One of the best, I think =)

[identity profile] nimielle.livejournal.com 2011-02-21 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I really hope work is less stressful than you anticipate! I hate it when work turns out that way!

*hugs tight*

YAY for going to the gymn. Good luck with that!

I really need to catch up on all the BH I have missed, it's such a great show!

Love you! ♥

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2011-02-21 05:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Work is horrible, and if it becomes even more horrible after Wednesday's meeting, then I honestly don't know what I'll do. We'll see, I suppose.

BH is great, you should definitely try and get caught up soon =)

*hugs muchly*

4a/ As far as I know they haven't announced an airdate for 05.01 yet, but I'm eagerly waiting for the new series.
4c/ Do you mean Little Lion Men (http://community.livejournal.com/kinkme_merlin/18397.html?thread=18200029#t18200029)? ♥
4d/ I agree, I didn't watch the last episodes of S2 because I was slightly annoyed but S3's really good so far! :D

Good luck with going back to work tomorrow!

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2011-02-21 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
It's nice to know someone else likes it too. I've only just got into it, and by just I mean I downloaded and watched every single episode during the last month or so. Funny really, as I never watched Morse. Love Lewis though.

I don't think that's it, though I suppose it might be. I never read any of it, I just remember the summary, which is pretty much as I wrote it above, and I don't remember anything about the kids fighting, just that they'd noticed each other when dropping the kids off at school and were both assuming the other was straight when in fact they weren't. It's really annoying me now, and I was sure one of you might actually know it. Maybe I did imagine it then.

Thanks love, I'm going to need it.

Lewis is a bit of a slow burner, the cases are always a bit tricky but I really love the Oxford/university atmosphere and I really, really like Lewis and Hathaway together, they make a great team and I'm eagerly waiting for the new series! :D

Just out of interest I've checked out an old episode of Morse at the ITVplayer some time ago and I have to say: I LOOOOOVE it! It's just so entertaining and interesting to see an 80s UK crime series and the actor who played Morse was quite charismatic. So whenever ITV repeats an episode I very much enjoy watching it.

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2011-02-21 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Lewis and Hathaway are a fantastic team, and I love how long and intricate the episodes are. Just a shame there are so few episodes per series.

I do remember Morse being on for years and years, and probably did see odd episodes here and there, but never really got into it or was that interested. I don't know. John Thaw was an amazing actor though.

good luck with work tomorrow

Thank you =)

good for you going to the gym!

i hear ya about going back to work... ugh.

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2011-02-21 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm pleased with myself for going and i'm sure if I keep it up I'll be even more pleased with the results, so thank you =)

I desperately need another job, but can't actually afford to do anything about it right now. I'd love another job, I really would.

1) ...or a blushed petal on the side of a white rose - isn't all bad not being exactly like everyone else.

2) ...

3) ...I won't have to hunt you down will I?

4) ...a) - nope, sorry. b) - like the show so far, haven't dipped my toes in anywhere. c) - can't help d) - I never did get around to watching Being Human - kind of slipped the net and I never bothered catching up.

I'm ok thanks, one again huge "Good Luck" for tomorrow, wish you could find somewhere better, where you'd be happier, but for now, I'll keep my fingers crossed and my toes crossed when I'm sitting down!

2) Sending you lots and lots and lots of good luck, honey.

3) You are not a habit - I better not be cut. :P *loves*

4) c) I wanna read that fic now...

You are my favourite. ♥

Huge good luck vibes for going back to work! And man, I'm really happy to hear you're making it to the gym ::hugs::

[identity profile] aramley.livejournal.com 2011-02-22 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
*hugs* Good luck with going back to work. I'm thinking of you and hoping it all goes well ♥

I don't know when Lewis is coming back, but I wish it would soon! And I keep hearing very good (slashy!) things about this Hawaii 5-0 - worth getting my hands on?

[identity profile] psycho-warbaby.livejournal.com 2011-02-22 11:57 am (UTC)(link)
1) Good job on the Gym! And you thought you wouldn't last that long!

2) More timetable of doom? Good luck on that... Me on the other hand,, I've had a pretty good run. My bosses have been really kind to me and are letting me do operations and I'm super excited because I got to perform my very first C-Section! Yay! Hopefully I can send my Yay-ness over to you!

3) Couldn't agree with you more~

I know I have not been around much lately, RL has been infinitely demanding with my finite time/energy, but I would like to keep in touch with you.

That said, this series of Being Human is rocking my world. I can't believe the amount of fabulous dread and anticipation I have for each new episode!

Sending you LOTS of luck for that meeting, I hope that your stress comes to naught and they'll be a lot more reasonable than you expect.

I do hope you won't feel too bad at work. I know too well how it can get to you. Strangely (or not), after gym I usually feel better. Even if I had awful day at work. Does it work like this for you as well?

*hugs*

2. WHat what? I've missed stuff here I can see. *hugs* Hope all is well.

I hope work was ok for you this week. *hugs*

I'm so proud of you for going to the gym. It's a big step and I think it's wonderful you're making the effort :)

I am so behind on Being Human. I haven't even downloaded the first ep from this series :( Good to hear it's been great so far, though. Something to look forward to. Eventually.
