We finally have a network on our computers. The moment that the laptop actually logged on at the same time as the desktop was a good one. The fact that the moment was well after midnight diluted it a bit, but still, it's done. So now James can surf as I do, which will be fun...not.

I've also found a way to use Google. It's complicated and the actual google URL doesn't work but I can use it via the BT home page. It's not the same, I love Google so much, but it'll have to do for now.

We went to the fireworks last night which was cool. It was also freezing and blowing a gale but I like fireworks so put up with it.

In a way it was a shame that we went out as I was writing well. Did 4 pages of The End which is more than I've managed in weeks, and a story for sentinel_thurs The advice I got, which simplified is 'stop stressing and listening to other people and just write' worked *G* It's mostly dialogue which isn't my strongest point, so I'll be throwing it out to the ever patient betas soon.

I've had one of those days. James is sick, with a cold I said but he thought it was the flu. He's sitting in his chair, coughing and sniffing, pathetically asking for Lemsips and hot drinks all the time. He's one sniff away from getting the next one over his head I tell you.

As he was off work I told him to pick Corey up. He agreed, so we drove up, went to park, and reversed into a wall, smashing the brake lights. It was one of those moments, you hear the crunch and just tense for the argument because it was me that suggested we park there.

Then we went to the doctors, to get drugs for his raging flu. The dr said he maybe had the start of tonsillitis (sp?) and perhaps shingles. See, James had told him his eyes were stinging earlier. Of course he didn't tell him he'd just rubbed his eyes after touching a powdered Lemsip before they started stinging...sigh.

Left the doctors, came home. About 10 children descended on the garden, and one of them snapped the washing line.

So yes, annoying day. And to fix it I'm going to think about having sex with ten beautiful men, not together unfortunately ;)

And now I shut up and mop the drool from my desk *g*
