  • Tried out the Alphas pilot, am cautiously interested.
  • Bought a new modem, well [personal profile] chaosmanor did the actual buying, but I contributed brain power! That counts! We're getting a much nicer wifi experience now and had the fun of naming the new network... yes, we *did* watch a lot of My Little Ponies recently, why do you ask?
  • Looked at a house the commune found, it’s very nice – has enough bedrooms, enough space and three bathrooms – it’s also priced higher than we’ve been planning for so we’re going to re-do our financing plans then, assuming we can afford it ( which I think we can) probably make an offer.
  • Tripped and fell on [personal profile] transcendancing’s Social Dance classes – was good fun, relaxed, interesting and light exercise. I’ll be going back for more both for the dancing and opportunity to spend time with [personal profile] transcendancing and [personal profile] maharetr. Alas they are held late at night, I’m going to have to start work late or skip meditating to get enough sleep.
  • Dug out my collection of jewelry – in a box in storage cleverly marked ‘Hat’s (there were hats too). I don’t usually wear jewelry but I’m aiming for a certain look at work so I’m exploring that. This has been very interesting and involved a series of conversations about what people use jewelry to convey in the workplace. I feel like I’m getting mentoring in a sekrit art. It turns out most of what I already have isn’t suitable – it’s a collection of magpie impulse buys, presents from others and stuff I’ve inherited from my grandmother.

Random buys can still work. I find jewellery interesting, as it does sort of have some secret codes.

Yay for modem - can't wait to see what the network is called!

You rock, can't wait to see you :) *loves*

enquiring mouse would like to know: where is new potential house?

also, for learning about jewellery, I suggest taking a young female jackdaw human with you op-shopping for jewellery - anything they pick will be unsuitable for Serious Business.

oooh. Just around the corner! Yay! Here's hoping that this one will pan out, I'd love to be able to visit you and housemates more often.
