Too hurried to think of a decent title
There's something deeply satisfying about going into my Blogger Dashboard and seeing Corbett's Fiction, a little tag saying “4 posts” underneath it, at the top of the list, the latest of my blogs to be updated. The MacTake has been on the bottom for a while now. I'll get round to that sometime soon.
But not tonight. I said I'd be online to play some friends at Halo 3 but didn't manage it, partly because I left some homework too late (some of which I still have to do) and partly because I was watching the fourth season première of Stargate Atlantis. It was a good episode and it's fun to have something to watch once a week again. I can do this with the 'Gate series because they start showing in the UK just a few weeks after the US and that means we catch up and surpass the Americans while they're hanging around at that mid-season hiatus thing.
I remember when SG-1 ended and various geek sites on the internet were hyping it and lamenting it. During all the buzz about the final episode, I was just thinking that I really should get round to watching it. It had been saved on the DVR for weeks.
Anyway, I've just been reminded of some other homework that I need to go and do, so I'm cutting this short. I'll probably still end up having to do half of it at school tomorrow, which will be difficult for various reasons. One, someone is bringing in a 360 for a Halo 3 marathon (technically, just to play Halo 3, but you know it'll never even be switched off) and two, the table I usually work at in the study room has been stolen.
We really don't know where it's gone. Someone took it for some school function and it never showed up again. Since one table is covered with games console stuff, that really limits the working space in the study room. And I don't have time tomorrow to lead a crusade to recover it because I'll be too busy stealing a little patch of table and scribbling down answers for Computing homework.
I really need to stop being so damned lazy about schoolwork. And I really need to get that fracking table back.
