Up to speed
29 04 2003Well, I’m back in Oxford now. It’s taken a day or so, but I’ve managed to avoid putting everything away just yet…
The drive back was definitely a feat of superhuman levels. I had previous maintained that it was unlikely, if not impossible, that Nikki and I could both get back in the one car, but we did manage it. And probably contravened certain rules about car overloading. And albeit at speeds not exceeding 60mph. Still, it was worth it to get her back with me rather than face an uncertain amount of days here without her.
This morning’s lecture was interesting, to say the least. The lecturer threatened to kill us 3 times through various methods and it transpires the module is, as I suspected, some kind of glorified HTML course. I was quite lucky to find the lecture theatre this morning since I only stumbled across is about 3 minutes before the lecture was due to start, and, thankfully, Ian and George were sitting in there already so I didn’t have to do things alone.
After getting back, we went into Oxford for what turned out to be probably the most pointless journey in recent times (for me) as it transpired that the deposit machine was broken and the queue was too long to put in Rob’s cheque, and I need my log book to get a parking permit. Fuck.
Nikki, on the other hand, managed to get her prescription for her newly developed eye infection. Litres of pus oozing from the eyeballs, sealing it shut in the mornings probably describes both it and one of my worst nightmares, so I was naturally glad to hear it is highly contagious…
Tomorrow I have my next lecture, then I’ve got 5 days off. Maybe more, since next week’s lecture is probably unecessary. I have no idea what I’ll do for the majority of those, of course, but I’m sure I can think of something.
least you remembered the cheque was there, anytime over the next week would be cool but make sure u take what I owe you for the whole ebaymejig, cheers
