but its past my bedtime, and i have to do this now, as i'm going home for the weekend and i really don't have time to reply to everyone individually. i just wanted to say thanks to everyone who sent me their sympathy / empathy for my whinging the other day. i'd forgotten how nice people are around these parts. props out to gareth jenkinson for making me feel insignificant (this is actually a good thing) also to debs ****, andrew churchman,and andrew_2_lloyd for seeming exactly like me which as far as i'm concerned is also a good thing and general props to everyone who offered advice and general cheering up. in case you were wondering (as if) i am now grinning inanely after a pleasing encounter on wednesday night, and i have an appointment with my tutor in the morning to sort out my course. life is back on track (possibly) ooh i feel so naughty for such blatant list abuse, but while mummy's away... i also asked about the name of the decade in which we are currently residing and i received various suggestions: jason andreas said -
