Hey! When did it get to be May, all suddenly? Surely there are rules about that sort of thing?

I am, sudden unauthorised departure of April notwithstanding, pleased to report the following:
  • Rain. Winter is apparently looming, in a way that makes me deeply happy. I had to dash to the library this morning in a light drizzle that wantonly became a downpour, as a result of which I look like a damp English sheepdog. (Although I hope I don't smell the same).
  • Indecent triumph over the Powers of Darkness that reside on my computer. It is a relief to note that the random turning-itself-on trope wasn't, in fact, me sleepwalking or losing time to alien abduction of my hard-drive, but a mutant BIOS setting, which I have subsequently located and disabled all on my lonesome except for the power of Google. *flexes little, tiny geek muscle*. I'm also more or less caught up on all the missing programs and settings from the hard drive swop. Mutter.
  • A couple of this batch of essays which have turned out to be astonishingly literate, which means I won't actually be forced to club to death both my classes in the interests of the human gene pool.
  • Lost! It's cool! I like the way it's filmed, all fragmented, like. Although I'd be happier if the graphics card in this new hard drive didn't leave a regular grid of tiny, high-relief pimples all over the screen. That'll teach me to encourage evil bootlegs.
  • Jo's game tonight, after many weeks of deprivation. I'm missing being monosyllabically obnoxious.

Enjoy Lost! Channel 4 have FINALLY started showing Series 2 here, even though America, Ireland and even fricking Belgium are well into the series already. I almost feel like I'm in some backwards developing country or something! ;)

...but see if you're still enjoying it by the end of the series. I kept wanting to throw things at the screen as I realised they really weren't going to answer ANY of the questions they'd been setting up. Messing with us, grrr.

Of course, I still watch. Sawyer keeps taking his shirt off.
