Tonight I have reactivated my WoW account. Whether I will use it, whether this is a good thing or not, whether I will get time to play, all are things to be discovered. However, 350+ Megs of patches is really putting a damper on playing it RIGHT NOW!!!!

I also had a talk with "the woman", and complained again about her Internet usage, which extends to such periods of time that it essentially freezes me out and leaves me sat like a lemon while she's pretending to be someone else. It's not just at home, which would be problematic enough at times. We were out with friends at dinner last night and I saw her on her mobile checking something or another earnestly ignoring everything around her. This isn't an unusual event. I'm not quite sure what's so damned important that it can't wait an hour or two.

Life goes on at work. There's another person from GroupTSG who's leaving DM, they are now going to be in a position where they will have no choice but to recruit else they will be short-handed on a ridiculous scale. I'm watching the intranet like a hawk for the advert to go on.

Outside of work, we had our housewarming this weekend, with various of Jane's friends and mono/LJ friends coming. It was a really nice day/night I think. Was lots of work preparing and if I'm going to do the same thing again I'm going to make sure we get proper charcoal, this quick lighting stuff doesn't stay hot for anywhere near long enough! There were buckets-full of Pimms & lemonade, we went through a case and a half of lager, several bottles of wine and a little bit of whisky. I am still, however, finding squished mosquitos all over the walls in various places, the reasons for which I am hesitant to even think about asking.

Hmmm.

Can you get a 2nd PC? If so, you could connect the internet to it?
Alternatively, maybe the pair of you could set agreed useage.

Also, maybe "ban" either of you web/text checking whilst with friends? Me and boi will look at text messages perhaps, when with friends, but don't reply.

In other news...Pimms and Lemonade - YUM!!

She has a PC, which she has left at her parents' for a while. I am anti-"bans" or "limits" or "rules" in general, but maybe it's the future!

What the heck were your guests doing to the mosquitos?

I really don't know! That's what disturbs me most!

It wasn't me, nobody saw me do it, you can't prove anything...

(and I was in Manchester by this point playing on Claire's pinball machine :P )

At a guess though, I'd say your guests were probably killing them, on account of how noone likes to be a Mozzy Snack'N'Stop in the middle of the night ;)

Oh I see, you only went for the pinball!
I dunno, having a mozzie drink my blood might be the quickest way to lose weight :P

Ofc, not to see a good friend at all :P

Hmm, imo being eaten by mozzies is pretty ineffective for weight loss. It might work to bring on anaemia though :P

oooo, I've always wanted to be anaemic!
