Nov. 1st, 2005 04:22 pmEp 4. Working way too hard.
This is hard to film, I think. It would have to be a massive cut, from a tableau of me leaving the house on weds morning to whizzy blinds transition with me returning late into friday night to find everything much the same but slightly settled, and that I hadn't taken the time to eg. check the freezer door was shut properly :( :)
I don't know how it happened. Things got put off, relied on other people, etc, I thought it wouldn't take so long, and then I found myself crunching, determined to finish by friday, and hence working wed 2pm to fri night 2am with only a 8h break wed night and 2h break thurs evening.
OTOH, I think I established a pattern of working which should prevent future such fuckups, maybe.
I don't know why I'm admitting this.
Ep 5. Saturday
An interesting but not coherent episode. Like Sim City perhap: a smorgasboard of three or four interconnected vignettes.
(a) Poohsoc. I missed poohsticks, but turned up to part of the meeting. Estelle got an innuendo. Rachel's sister and Rosy's mum turned up, who were mostly called Rachel or something too. We had the idea of printing poohsoc mugs[1]. Basic stand up comedy fair.
(b) Sally's dinner for miss_next. Lovely food, articulate, planning cambridge geography for miss_next's novel, lots of hugs and innuendo from mole, and a classic impromtu socratic dialogue on how to play. Basic sitcom fair.
(c) Slipping away to help Katie on the amnesty stall. They found someone to cover after all, but I stayed to chat for a while. Somehow, desptie everything, Katie makes my list of people I can always talk to, so you get an acceptable episode of two people just talking, but a chance to catch up on gossip, a few laughs, and to plug a good cause.
(d) Edith's pumpkin party. Random hair stroking by insane crackheads (not really). Nice soup (though I'd eaten). Nice larpers having an orgy on the sofa. Nick/Edith arguing about the chemistry of jelly and rolling around on the floor.
Susan is cuddly.
[1] c. £10 for a custom mug is fairly cool, neh? Less if you can find somewhere to get them in any bulk.

As to mega-work, I have that feeling, with all the random appointments etc I have I'm going to be trying to work at least 10 hours a day yesterday - thursday. Possibly more. Ah, well better than you, and next week is nice and quiet so things should be better then.
Speaking of which...food..work...
