turpsIt seems the e-mail problems were only the start of a break down for poor Silver. Being as PC World has the worst after sales service ever he's been with one of James' friends who fixes computers and came home this morning. *hugs Silver* My desk looked so sad with no hard drive on it, thankfully I was out most of the last two days so couldn't pine that much.
It's been a busy two days. Doctors and a visit to my Aunt's on Friday and shopping and a ride out yesterday. The visit to Auntie Irene's was good, all my cousins were there and I was so nervous about going in, but we had so much fun and didn't leave until late. Then yesterday we were helping the SiL buy a PC, which was hard seeing them all as my baby was in the computer hospital *sniff sniff*
My Joey came on Friday too and he's gorgeous. There was no box but for 99p who's complaining? I assume he's one of the European ones as he has a nice looking face and is wearing the patchwork denim. So Chris has a friend now and they're happily standing together *g*
Okay, I have things to do, including waiting for the plumber as we sprung a leak behind the washer last night and the kitchen floor is soaked through. Thankfully the plumber is a friend as I wouldn't like to think of the cost of a Sunday call out :(
ETA: Plumber guy is coming later and needs to be at the water stop thing, which is upstairs in the airing cupboard. Why aren't I the kind of person that keeps everywhere tidy? Why?! *runs to take clean clothes off stairs and tidy bathroom* Did I mention I've just tipped a tray full of grease off the grill down my front? No. Well I did...sigh.

and rar for friends who can help you out.

Oh, no...teh Choey! I don't need any more bunnies! *tries to chase bunnies away*

Did I mention I've just tipped a tray full of grease off the grill down my front?
Eeek! I've done that more times than I care to relate. I hope you didn't burn yourself.
*hugs*

Date: 2004-09-19 06:49 am (UTC)I figured getting Silver seen to now before he had a total melt down was the thing to do. But it was hard, especially in the morning when I'd automatically go to sit at my desk *g*

Date: 2004-09-19 06:52 am (UTC)Man, I miss Silver so much when he's gone. It's like a physical ache which is pathetic but when I walk past the desk and there's this gap my heart pings (/dramatic moment)
I will hug him *hugs Silver*
ROTFLMAO
I'd say they move during the night but I'd scare the life out of myself thinking that.

Date: 2004-09-19 06:54 am (UTC)It's the same Aunt. She's determined that we'll meet up at least once a week so invited us to hers. I knew my cousins would be there and we were close ages ago but haven't seen each other for years so I was nervous. But it was good :)
Friends who help are the best!

Silver seems fine. Still a little full memory wise but apart from that fine now.
NO! You need bunnies! Loads of bunnies! ;)

Date: 2004-09-19 06:59 am (UTC)It isn't fair. Things are supposed to break down one at a time, not in a group. At least Silver is home. I can cope with anything when I have my flist to fall back on.
I didn't burn myself. Thankfully it was cooling, but between the flood and cleaning up the grease my floor is cleaner that it has been for years *g*
How's your story going? You were torn between TrickC and Trickyfish last time I saw you.

Date: 2004-09-19 07:06 am (UTC)I hope your doctor's visit went well! I certainly would have missed you if I was around. Sadly, I've not had much online time this week. I'm glad you had a good visit with your Auntie and cousins.
*hugs you*
*pets Silver*
*pulls out duct tape to fix your pipe*
What? Not as good as a plumber? But you can fix anything with duct tape!
*hands duct tape to your Choey dolls*
*wonders who will tape the other one up first*

Date: 2004-09-19 07:23 am (UTC)For what it's worth, I think I've got something for our story, but we still need to brainstorm a little. When's the due date for it? Like...Next week or something?
There's something to be said about being clumsy, because I have not only done the afforemensioned spilling grill grease, but I've also gotten into a fight with raw chicken insides, and thrown freshly fried food on myself. Why? Because someone up there obviously does not like me.

Date: 2004-09-23 10:45 am (UTC)I've learned a lot about the marionettes while I've been researching *g*
It seems there's 4 kinds of each guy. One has sharp features and a brown base. Another much better features, better clothes and a brown base. There's the blue based ones and the half sized ones too.
I'll get them all one day ;)
