Oh. The solution to all my LJ-related troubles is apparently to post from work. Heehee!
Well! What's new? Not a lot, really. Busy, busy week/weekend - on Saturday, I went to zee mall and bought a whole lot of nothing in favour of wandering around in the AC. In the evening, there was an excellent gaming session (me? a geek? whatever gave you that idea?). I'm a big fan of all sorts of role-playing games, but this one took the cake - it's not based on battles. Instead of warriors, you've got 'investigators', real people trying to solve supernatural mysteries. It's insanely fun, needless to say, especially when it's set on campus and the Big Bad is the concertmaster of the symphony orchestra gone insanebut everyone's too busy trying to get the absent-minded professor to his meeting about coffee machines to care. Huzzah!
Sunday was a lot of sitting-around-and-going-for-ice-cream-ness. Yup, heat wave's still on. Five consecutive days at or above 30 degrees (that's, um, eighties or something for Fahrenheit. I dunno.) isn't unheard of, but it's sort of rare hereabouts. Seems like nothing compared to the heat in Germany last time I was there (high forties, no AC - the fridge couldn't even keep stuff cool, and only hot water ran from the tap!), but it's annoying enough that I'm looking forward to the cooler weather beginning tomorrow. Oh! And we had a thunderstorm! Well, kind of. It was heat lightning, anyway, and I would've stopped to look at it, if it weren't for the fact that I was acting like an imbecile and walking home at three in the morning through deserted streets. Gah. Apparently, staying up late puts my sanity at risk. Good to know.
I then had violin and Torchwood, and it was generally a lot of fun, though apparently I need to buy a new bow ASAP. *grumbles*
Tonight? Going to grandparents' place to play piano/entertain/get food/mooch a ride to my parents' place on Thursday. Tomorrow? Fencing. Wednesday? Further violinning. And on Thursday, I'm going back to my parents' place for my brother's year-end choir concert. And then there will be sleeping all weekend. Oh yes.
Also: latest Doctor Who episode? Let's just say I loved it so much that I'm actually gonna write out a coherent and extremely long-winded review at the earliest opportunity. Too many echoes to ignore.
