Fuck me sideways, this Centrelink business gets bloody complicated after a while. Was on the phone about the whole jury duty payment thing, halfway through reporting this fortnight's income on the website, when the internet dropped. Sigh. So I finish the phone call about jury duty, get all that sorted out, then go try to report for this fortnight. Except that I can't, because when the internet dropped, despite my having filled out all appropriate details, the site had me down as having earned no income for the last fortnight, which would, uh, get me in some serious trouble with the vicious governments gangs. So I call back... and have to go through the whole add-an-employer business over the phone because their system won't let me edit a report that it fucked up in the first place. |D; Trying to explain that it's the same business, it's just changed ownership? More bloody trouble than it is worth, I tell you.

Once again, today was a waste of time in the educational playpen. My InterWri lecturer actually vanished from the room for long enough that I deemed it more sensible to just go home.

And now I am home. And I have a shift tomorrow night but it is only being on register and I like register shifts and Luke got me the weekend off and he is a good boy sometimes really. I got to talk to Seb on the phone. Sometimes I just want to squish that boy. ♥

I spoke to Dad, too, and they're all moved in and apparently there is a bus that goes fairly close (which is probably the 444) and he's going to pick me up from work on June 7 and I'm going to go out there and hang about for a few days and take my study stuff with me and god, won't that be nice. They live in a suburb without my neighbours, and hopefully without drag racers trying to go over the roundabout. You have no idea how much I am looking forward to this. I may actually just sleep from June 8 - 10. It would be an excellent use of my time.

And then, [info]teacupscientist, we can actually do that movie. XD Assuming anything is still in bloody cinemas at that point. God. When do you think your day off will be that week? I'll still probably be working Fri & Sat nights, and my 40% exam is on June 17. ♥ Let me know, babe.

It is bizarre, how relieved I am because today is over. I'm not even sure why. It's not as though I had anything stressful to cope with. Anyway, now I can go and continue to write Charlie in past tense, which he is happy with, and then I can do a little bit of Japanese study - vocab in particular, I think, because tomorrow is only a listening test and I am not awful at those - and possibly work on listening skills with, I don't know, SOMETHING WITH SUBTITLES AND POLITE LANGUAGE. Although given my choices in anime, gods only know what that will mean. XD Furuba, probably.

But before I go, a link. Just to sort of highlight, bold, italicise and underline why Tokyopop is a piece of shit. I really do not like these people, although I have to admit that the Loveless editor is not terrible.

[EDIT] Also, because it's true: god, the weather is fucking lovely today. ♥ It's been freezing and overcast all day. It's wonderful. I miss this weather every year.

[EDIT] Why does the church even bother? Honestly. XD;

[EDIT] It is embarrassing how long it took me to realise that I could just rewrite Steam Will Rise for this DigiMed assignment. Embarrassing. (Also, huzzah, finally an excuse to fix that thing. I always liked the idea, but Christ, overdramatic first drafts are not the answer.)
