I have a new laptop. It's shiny.

I am, however, determined *not* to have a net connection in my room when I return (on the 7th). I know myself - if I do take a connection, that will be the end of my academic career. Besides, why pay when you have it for free? There is something very exciting about reading porn in the university computers.

Meanwhile, my mother is back from her trip to London. She has brought a lot of chocolates along with her. So right now I'm shamelessly eating more chocolates than any sane person should be allowed to eat and listening to delightfully obscene (and thankfully, untranslatable) songs (and also attempting to write some Desperate Housewives slash, but we shall not talk about that).

Life, she is good.

Yay! congrats on the new toy. I have a new one too -- it looks like a space ship. *g*

But what's with the no net-connection thing? You should know that fangirl time is like magic pudding -- it exists in a space all of its own without impinging on anything else. ;)

No no, you mustn't tempt me. Swatkat+laptop+unlimited net connection+a place with no regulations = KABOOM. In short, a very bad combination - not something I can afford to do. The university computers will have to do.

Are you all settled yet?

Nope. Unsettled down to my toenails.

I have a new mantra, though: "This too shall pass" *g*

I have yet to succumb to the world of laptops -- it would mean I should always be working. And while that is the assumption for both students and freelance writers, I like to avoid it when I can.

But if I had to go out of the house for a net connection, I would never log on. Late night at home, after the denizens are out of my hair, is the best time to jump into the electronic world for me.

I heartily approve of avoiding work. I do it all the time.

This is the only option for me, though - otherwise I'd be up all night reading porn when I should be getting some work done.

Wait wait wait...what????

Do I have to threaten you to finish, or is bribery enough?

You have mail.

But I wouldn't say no to bribery. Would you like to write me a Cuddy/Lynette fic?

Ooooh. I will get back to you in a little while about the email.

Cuddy/Lynette? That's actually strangely feasible-sounding, isn't it?

It is! Think of the amount of ass they could kick together! And the hotness! I am told LE and FH had excellent chemistry in Sports Night, but I've never seen the show, and they're hotter now anyway.

Oh, they were on a show together? I never watched Sports Night -- the premise of the series didn't interest me.

Whoops! That was me, forgetting to sign in.

They were. I'm not sure about the nature of their roles, though. The show doesn't interest me, either.

Yaaaah!!! New laptop! I look forward to seeing you here more often, then. *g*

Mwah!

Hmm, not sure about online time, because I'm NOT taking a net connection in my room right now. But it does give me more writing time. I hope. *crosses fingers*

So. How ya doin'? [she says in her best Joey voice]
