Back! *squeaks up*

*dead* as went to bed at midnight and had to get up at three, and it's now ten to one Iceland time but ten to three Dutch time. Trip was great - beautiful country.

Think I will leave details for later, as the List of Facts now important to me is:

  • Have job - GOOD
  • Have to work at 9 a.m. tomorrow - BAD
  • Gmail is not working - BAD
  • Have read HP6 twice - GOOD
*frown* There must have been more of those but they're the only one I can think of right now.

Right, might as well catch up with things while I wait for Gmail to spring back to life.**

**Thought as I typed this: My golly it just has! *checks* No, it hasn't.

Edit: Holy canary, people, I just skipped 200 entries on my flist and I'm still not seeing a date of before I went! Anything you particularly want me to read? Because there's no way I'm going to be able to keep track of all that!

Well, see, *that* I missed

That's what vacation does to you, especially in a country where you have less than a farthing's grasp of the language and have no access to newspapers anyway.

Came home, picked up a newspaper which casually mentioned "London" and went, "Huh? London?" *ruffles through two weeks' worth of newspapers* "OMG!"

As soon as I can get round to it... which will not be that soon, I fear.

(Huh? Where? And why? Glad I was missed, though.)

Re: Ooh, bribes

Well, few and I were reading THIS updated page and were thinking, 'Who do we know in Amsterdam'?

Silly ticket buying restrictions.

How big of a bribe are we talking?

Re: Ooh, bribes

Well, among others, I'll bring a camara with me when I try to obtain the tickets and you and few will have to look at them, laugh at every lame joke I would care to make when you listen to and pretend to be entertained by the horrid tale of when I was forced to go into town during the Uitmarkt! *evil grin*

And, of course, since I'm too lazy to look it up and it has slipped my mind again (*sigh* Oh, Neville!), you'd have to tell me which tour I would be procuring tickets for.

*thinks of other bribes*

(My mother's sending me off to bed now.)

Re: Ooh, bribes

Lol! I think I can deal with all of those.

I hope you got a good night's sleep!

Welcome back! Am jealous that you've been through HP6 twice. Am still in the page 300 area, and have full workday to get through before I can go home and bliss out on the rest of it.

Welcome back!

Didn't get married, didn't get pregnant. Nothing you missed here.

I got your postcard on Saturday, but at least it got back before you did!

Welcome back! I hope you'll be posting pics!

You've read HP6 twice already! Goodness, I'm only half-way through.

My big news with me is that my husband and I did go to Toronto after all, but hit a deer on the way. It did a lot of damage to the car (though miraculously it may have survived; no carcass found), so we had to turn back home and rent a car. But we made it safely in the end, and returned safely, baruch Hashem. I hope your trip was more pleasant than that.

A deer! My. The only thing we hit were flies. Lots of those, though.
