Kate’s allegedly a human (although increasingly right-wing bigots would say otherwise). She’s definitely not a vampire, despite what some other people claim. She’s also mostly built out of spite and overcoming oppositional-sexism, racism, and other random bullshit.
So she’s either a human or a lizard in disguise sent to destroy all of humanity.
Either way, she’s here to reassure that it’s all fine.

Adding physicality to the abstract of a concept.
So, I’ve had a busy day. Really busy; no; busier than that. But before I get into that; you – people – go watch Hot Fuzz, it’s very funny. Saw it yesterday, laughed lots, really a very silly film. Yes. So, today. Well, first up because I’m too late for Snapshot Hunter (I’m really fracking…

So, I was in a good mood.
Yesterday, orientation and a few hours in the ED and I was very nervous; it didn’t seem to be coming back to me; I felt like I knew nothing and although I convinced myself not to stress too much about it; I found it a really hard day. Today was basically A&E as I remember…

Whining and feeling none-too-clever.
So; tomorrow I start work in the emergency department at St. Fred’s. I have to say I’m nervous; for several reasons: 1) My hayfever (well, allergic rhinitis) is worse than ever; I’ve resorted to mixing anti-histamine and decongestants today; with rather limited success. Apparently, it’s a mix that you can get – but it’s not…

Don’t look back…
So, last day on Q-Ward at Saint Bob’s Hospital, it was very weird to leave. I guess because while I’ve been there about as long as I was on placements; when I left placements I didn’t leave alone. And I knew I’d be back in the same hospital (except after my second placement…) for the…

Making with the pretty.
On monday, I was riding to work and there was sloooow traffic, and the reason was that some truck had lost what had once been a sheet of pink expanded polystyrene (Like the big blocks of packing material made of little tiny tiny bubbles of polystyrene). By the time I got there it had been…

The long and the short of the week
It’s been a weird week really; monday was insanely hectic, the shower screen arriving and everything; I really intended for Tuesday to be a working day – as in, getting more done on the house, but after work I just fell into bed. Fell, pretty much literally. I led there and I thought ‘ten minutes’…

Corraling chaos. Again.
So, this morning’s plan was simple, if somewhat busy: – MOT Cherry – GP – Return Keys – Tax bike – Go to pharmacy See, easy. Timing was slighly of the essence, with the MOT being at 0800, and the GP at 0920, and the van keys needing to be back by 10. But I…

Contrary to my own expectations
After a solid hour of lying, eyes embedded in various bits of pillow, I declared that my eyes were better enough and that the weather had cooled enough for me to endure the outside world; or at least, if not, to achieve something inside. Fortunately for me, clouds were scudding across the sky, and the…

No, actually, it’s too hot.
So I was going to try and sort the oil pressure switch, but it’s *way* too tight, and I fear snapping it. So I am actually going to let a garage handle it. And the service, because quite frankly 31.5 degrees CÂ (89 degrees F) is too hot for working on the car. Really, too…

Ouch :(
So I’m meant to be doing the car, my plan was ‘service the car, fit the new brakelight switch, if I get time carry on with the bathroom’. Unfortunately, I slept like crap – it was too hot (I had the fan on, which probably didn’t help with…) – and my eyes were sore; so…
