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.

Nothing to say…
It occured to me that in relative terms it’s been a while since I posted. Mostly I’ve been watching the L word (second series), trying to spend what little time I can with my parter, and finishing off putting Rebecca back together. This morning I tried to swap the thermostat housing, which nearly worked, except…

L word series II
So, I’ve been watching the second series of the L word, and so far it’s been really good. I miss the original title sequence, the uh “this is the way we live” song just doesn’t do it for me. But the big problem is Trey’s not seen series I, and no one else in the…

Why do they do this?
The entire purpose of their feeble little existance is to look at documentation sent by people to confirm it’s validity and correctness. So why do they say “we need a newer letter… your letter is dated July ’04” (the end of last semester, essentially) – about something regarding the next semester?! WHY! WHY!?!? So I…

Happyness is a warm gun…
…or something that isn’t what I feel at the moment. I’m heartily sick of my life at the moment. I don’t know why. I’m got a fantastic girlfriend, I love nursing, I’ve got a nice house, my bike’s actually running and the car is nearly back on the road. But at the end of every…

insomnia
it’s pretty rare that I can’t sleep. Just can’t. Eventually, normally I can get there. I’m sure I iwll tonight, in the end. But since the end of my night is 5.5 hours away and another long shift on A&E awaits, I find it all the more frustrating that I can’t sleep. And frustration keeps…

And the sun shines…
it’s 7.34. Which would be fine, but I’ve been roughly awake since 6:30. I then singularly failed to get back to sleep; despite my best attempts. At the moment every muscle in my body aches; I remember this feeling the first time I started working full time at a hospital. It felt like each shift…

That just tired feeling
So, it’s going to be my second shift on A&E today. I’m shattered. I didn’t get home ’til quarter past 10 (having left in the pissing rain). So the shift was cool, I started off terrified, but by the end was starting to feel that I at least had a vague notion where things were…

ETD – 10 minutes
So, in ten minutes time I’m going to get changed into my rapidly-slightly-waterproofed bike gear; I’m going to get on my little motorcycle, and I’m going to head into my first ever shift at A&E. I’m scared! Not only because it’s A&E, but also because they seem really together about students. Everywhere else has kinda…

1000 miles in (a) transit
This weekend we did 1000 miles. We drove 1000 miles in a transit van collecting engines (and other assorted transmission parts). I’ve got a 1275cc A+ ital engine sat in my garage (and a gearbox too!). It turns over. This is good. I am very, very tired. Spent my first (induction) day in A&E. Now…

It Hertz to rent from us
So. We rented a van. Or more accurately, we said “we want a pickup this weekend”, they said okay, and reserved one for us. Then when Nikki went to pick it up, no pickup, would we like a seven-seater foldy-downy-seats big car. Uh, “no”, not unless they want it back all nicely greased. Then…. after…
