Bring Me Sunshine...
Well, that crisis was avoided quite nicely, heh ^_^ I'm glad of that.

Mum'd been stressing out because of all the various things to do with the Sky engineers coming over- tidying up, waiting at home for three hours for them to turn up, as well as having to help out with odd bits and pieces (the guy that came was supposed to have had someone else with him, but he was off 'sick'), then having to cook tea afterwards. And since Dad never fails to call at precisely the wrong moment, things were getting incredibly heated around the table, and it wasn't the food that was emitting most of it >.>

But things were averted by me sorting out the TV connections which had all been undone by the engineer and taking the dogs for a walk. Go me, heh.

I went to see my friend today. I phoned the hospital this morning to check when I'd be able to visit him, but they first told me that I wouldn't be able to because he was due to go into theatre (operating theatre, not on stage ^_^;). I was able to speak to him on the phone for a good half hour or so, which was nice, and I promised I'd go and see him if I was able.

The college stuff took much longer than I anticipated. Bloody beuocracies beurocracies office politics >.> It's still not sorted yet, but it will be very soon. I have to go back in tomorrow, heh.

Anyway, once that was done I bought the joke books, stayed with Lawrence for a bit (as by that time I reckoned that I might at least be able to catch him after theatre, if not before), then md my way towards the hospital.

His operation was actually delayed until tomorrow morning, and despite saying that he was very bored, he seemed pretty upbeat ^_^ And he loved the joke books, heh. I stayed for as long as I could while he read me a few of the ones about blondes and sex (his choice and not mine, I hasten to add), then I left to catch a train home. He's due to be out this week, if all goes well. That'll be good ^_^

Window to Heaven
The moon is incredibly bright tonight, and I can see the stars clearly. I love nights like this. It would be nicer if it was actually a full moon rather than a three-quarters moon, but can't do much about that, heh. It's lovely to walk in.

I used to feel incredibly uneasy when looking at astrology and the phenomenally huge scale of the Universe- I just felt sad that I'd never be able to experience it all. But later I grew to become more grateful to be a part in it, and simply held in awe the majesty of it. When you look at space from space, it's pretty bleak. But from here it's very humbling.

One ambition of mine is to see the Northern Lights. I see them so often on TV and on pretty pictures- I think it's the kind of thing that needs to be seen in person to get the full impact of it. I love stellar events like that.

I wonder when the next lot of shootng stars will be coming over...
