Well, I was supposed to be going to Nottingham tonight, having arranged with the agency to go register tomorrow morning (still no word on that interview, despite having talked to them all day). But since the weather is disrupting all the train routes and frankly, scaring me, I decided to postpone it till the afternoon and go tomorrow. So I have an extra evening of Morrowind and internet. Hurrah. Also vague packing, but probably only of the vaguest kind. I could of course prepare for any interviews I may or may not have over the weekend. THAT WON'T HAPPEN.

(Also, my dad is apparently stuck in London since a tree fell on the train in front of his, and they recalled them both to the station. It's sort of scary and amusing all at once.)

I don't know what my internet access is going to be like from now on. My friends in Nottingham don't have it, but I might be back if nothing comes up, but I should probably stay even if it annoys them to be available for stuff. I could of course move out and get a flat really quickly, but there's no guarantee that will have the internet either. So I might not be around for a while. Thought I ought to say, just in case. Declarations of love or the location of buried treasure are probably best revealed tonight, or on my mobile.

I was going through iTunes so I could upload new stuff, and I appear to be incapable of deleting entire albums. It's pretty much just a mess of songs, ocassionally arranged into very small playlists. On the plus side, I did well enough to get the entire Wicked album uploaded in time for Nottingham. Which is what I was really aiming for. I'm going to be pop-u-lar...

In other news, [livejournal.com profile] strangeumbrella made a big post about Guy/Mac, and it was great. It is lovely when things appear and let you know you aren't the only one. Also, apparently goats faint. Who knew?

It's alright with you, we can just text. WHAT WILL THE OTHERS DO, CECILIA?

(I'm never giving you my password. Consider it 'security')

If I become a rich and famous data entry clerk, I will probably become a recluse soon after. Maybe in Cuba. But you can come live with me. (Bring gun!porn).

WE COULD START A REVOLUTION! AGAINST US!

You could go to that party. And not bring doughnuts.

(Because you still have me, obviously)

I don't have that thing of which you speak. SORRY.

By other people against us. We would be safe in our fortress. One covered in gold. It would basically be for our entertainment, and some gun kink.

I HAVE ALREADY SEEN IT SO IT DOESN'T MATTER TO ME. THAT'S QUITE A SELF-HATING HOPE, DUDE.

DON'T GO. No, do, 'cause probably that's the way to get a great life and everything. But still.

I think my father is also stuck in London behind a tree. I'm not sure. I know he isn't here and he's supposed to be. It must be a thing that fathers do, being stuck in London behind trees.

I'm sort of thinking at this point that maybe I should just stay at home and LIVE IN A CUPBOARD, but no. The whole independence deal is probably at least worth a try. No guarantees of success, though.

Oh, they should get together. And start a club.

Mine came home, scuppering your club like plans. Your father will have to party alone behind his tree.

You can live in my cupboard sometimes if you feel like a change of scene. There's a Christmas tree in there, and a power saw.

THE THINGS I COULD DO WITH THAT CHRISTMAS TREE AND POWER SAW.

Mostly saw through the Christmas tree. Carefully.

Or you could assemble the Christmas tree and then hang the power saw from it, if you were feeling less destructive and decorative and just a tiny bit sinister.

I don't trust power saws at the best of time. I'm not sure how I'd feel about one hanging in midair. In the cupboard where I live. Would it be plugged in? Would it come on with the fairy lights, for example?

And here I was worrying about the saw!

On second thoughts, a tree covered in bits of glass and plastic with electric cable wrapped around it is probably MUCH WORSE!

Trees have been falling on EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE. Suddenly my whole plan of leaving the house more is shown as the CRAZY thing it always was. Dude.

Probably you will have a lovely time and forget about us. Don't be doing that. You're allowed to have a lovely time, obv, it's the other bit I'm more down on.

::DECLARES LOVE::

Good luck and other shiny things.

CLEARLY EVEN THE OUTSIDE IS TRYING TO TELL YOU IT'S A BAD IDEA. There's actually a big tree right outside my bedroom window, but we've escaped so far. Mum thinks it's leaning towards our neighbour, anyway.

I doubt I will forget about you. Probably I will come crawling back to LJ after a week or two out in the sticks. Or, y'know, get a flat and the internet REALLY QUITE SOON. Or come back home on the weekends. SOME SUCH PLAN THAT WILL LET ME HAVE MY CAKE AND EAT IT. You are my cake. Just so we're clear.

I must say I'm not expecting you to be away for as long as would make me worry about you going. Probably they will give you work with internet access at least for the beginning and then later when you get a proper job you will presumably have sorted out somewhere to live. I hope you find somewhere nice to live. Probably you will. Anyway generally I am more hopeful about your internet access than others seem to be which is why I am not CLINGING TO YOU quite as much, sorry, I apparently hadn't thought things through. It is just my lack of foresight and not my natural lack of care. Good. Probably it's too late for you to decide not to go to Nottingham, though, and if you stayed eventually you'd come to hate us and there would be resentment and whatnot, so you should totally still go. Yes.

I AM NOT CAKE. That's just crazy talk.

I THINK YOU'LL FIND YOU ARE, MY FRIEND.

You don't have to apologise, dude. I wasn't really expecting the declarations of love, but I'm not going to argue! I think I'll probably get back online pretty soon, and I'd forgotten about internet at work, haha. It's pretty easy for me to get back to my parents', anyway. And I'm pretty much planning to go to Nottingham however much you all love me. SORRY AND ALL.

No. If we were UNANIMOUS in deciding you should stay then OBVIOUSLY YOU WOULD. That is ONLY RIGHT. Mostly you're only allowed to go because my lack of thinking things through has created a LOOP HOLE THING. Dude. I think other comments just made me realise that you might ACTUALLY disappear and that was Rub. Don't be doing that. Anyway. Yes.

I AM FLESH AND BLOOD, RACHAEL, I AM THE WORST CAKE IN THE WORLD.

I see the powers of democracy are ALIVE AND WELL. I probably won't disappear. I'll do my best not to. Oh, I could post via text! IN TEXT SPEAK! You'd all appreciate that, right?

MMM, FLESH AND BLOOD CAKE and I'll stop now.

Oh, sorry. I'm going to Nottingham tomorrow to register with an employment agency, and possibly interview for a few jobs they've mentioned. I'm planning to move there as soon as I get some work, pretty much. And I don't know if I'll have internet access. I sort of realised you were in for a big letdown after friending you. So, um. Sorry about that. I'll probably be back eventually though.

It's not...entirely clear at the moment. I'm going to register tomorrow, maybe interview for a job (but I'm not counting on it) and do some house-hunting over the weekend. If I get work, I'm obviously going to have to stay, if not I'll come home again. But if I stay I'll be looking for a flat or houseshare, and I pretty much plan to get the internet up and working as soon as possible when I get somewhere. I might be back online in a few weeks, I just thought I'd let everyone know just in case. It was a great few hours, anyway.

It was indeed a wonderful few hours, and I thank you for it, and for the mutual "oh wow, someone agrees with me!" thing, and the excitement, and the locker sex, which was so very much more than what I was expecting to find when I posted the thing in the first place (in a good way). Anyway, I hope you do get back online soon. :)

OMG I HAVE CHANGED MY MIND ABOUT THIS WHOLE 'YOU HAVING A LIFE' PLAN. Maybe you should just stay here for my own personal entertainment. HAVE YOU CONSIDERED THIS OPTION CAREFULLY, RACHAEL?

*dances you* I hope you do not die in Nottingham. Especially since I thought I'd withhold my declaration of love until a STILL MORE DRAMATIC opportunity. Dude.

I WEIGH IT UP EVERY DAY, DUDE. It is sadly lacking in monetary funds. I LOVE YOU THOUGH.

See how easy it is to declare? You're going to be embarassed if I never come back now.
