Bits And Bobs

Well this is the record. I haven't posted in here for so long, and I can pretty much only blame it on twitter. I do love it, but I never intended to neglect my LJ!
I also couldn't write at a good speed for a while cos of my poor hand. I was having it dressed every second day for about one and a half weeks, then Mum was helping me with it on our own, then I started doing it. It's still very scabby but haven't had anything on it yesterday and today.
Guess nothing much has happened though.
My internet speed had been throttled back once again; second time I used all my download bandwidth on my own. :( It's so slow now.
I finally downloaded the Sendspace wizard on Sunday, and I think that finished it off. It's great though, when it works. for some reason, I discovered that it doesn't auto resume like it should until about half an hour after I've opened it.
I downloaded, installed and am now using Quitter.It's based on Jawter, and it's quite fun to use.
Christopher S started talking to me about his job again and how they're hiring, so, after a bit of thought, I applied. I so don't want to go into Queens Street.
Yesterday I had my required O&M, even though, surprise surprise, I didn't need too. Heartly and I remembered everything!
I'm off to Cairnes in two and a half weeks, and I so can't wait; I need a break, oh yes I do!
Then, despite a bit of a stage of reservation, I am looking forward to convention; just meeting new people will be fun!
If I've left anything out, I'll be sure to update again.
I just tweeted this morning that I'm glad to be awake, though I still feel tired and weird. I had a strange dream this morning, and it concerns Kay D and liam E; both of which I don't talk to a lot, though starting to talk to Liam again a bit more on twitter, and occasionally on msn when timezones permit.

Liam, Kay, and a few others, (though don't remember who they were) were staying at our old non-existent house in Ang and my old room. It started off with Liam and Kay creating computer games, though it affected us in real life. I can't remember how, but they'd randomly be able to program objects to fly around the room, hitting other objects, and be scored on it. For example, if they hit something gold, a computer voice would announce "gold", "silver", or anything, but occasionally they'd hit me on the head, or anyone else.
I finally got the huff and went out into our old kitchen, but found it was worse out there. If I stomped on the floor in certain areas, I'd hear a message in a computer voice telling me what I was in for, (and I can't remember what the announcement was now), but where-ever I'd go in the house, I'd have to be careful little flying objects didn't hit me in the head.
Also, Kay had created other objects that hit me and had worse consequences; something to do with the object burning as it hit me.
Anyway, the rest is pretty much a blurr, but, needless to say that once I was hit by this burning object, I was part of the gang who programmed the flying objects.
There was another aspect to the dream, but I'm not able to remember it unfortunately. it was more scarey though, i know that.

very weird and strange. While a lot of events don't make sense at all, when I'm awake, I can try and piece it together, like a jigsaw puzzle.
As i say though, I'm feeling worn out from it. stupid dreams. *grrr
OK guess that's about all. I promised I'd write about the above dream in here since twitter would be obviously difficult. -- yes, I know I'm strange!
Oh, btw, I expressed my interested in doing a weekly radio show on The Global Voice. So in talks with the mannager about that now as I hadn't broadcasted for a long while, so can't remember exactly what I need.
But before I didn't have my entire albumn collection on here. now I do plus additional stuff I'd bought and things.
Because I'm into such a wide variety of music, it'd have to be from the 60's to today, playing a bit of everything from country, to rock, to balads etc; idealy with a bit of humour chucked in, but I still need to talk about the specifics, but it sounds like they're pretty flexible on that, so that's good. I was wondering about a good title. I straight away thought of "bits and pieces" but realized why that did come to me so soon; as that was the name of an interactive show on ACB radio so I then came up with "bits and bobs".
Anyway, that's about all. perhaps breakfast may help this worn-out feeling.
Til Next Time, RdFreak

Wow that is a strange dream, living a video game in real life. Just remember it was just only a dream and nothing more. Take care.
