Should. be. working. I actually have work out in front of me, which is better than usual. Still, though, it's because it's the writing bit that I keep dreading it. Oh, well. Can't be helped. I'll get it done...sometime. Sometime today. Which probably means tonight, but still. As long as it leaves me free for International Food Market (read: macaroons) tomorrow, then it's all good.

I was supposed to go to the post office today, but was thwarted by a combination of stupid Saturday scheduling and my own sleep habits. I got up at noon (which is normal/slightly early for me), and by the time I checked the opening hours for Cost Cutter's post office branch it was 12:30, which also happened to be exactly when they close on a Saturday. Ugh I fail ;_; I'll go Monday.

Also stressful/possibly upsetting, depending on a couple of factors, is that my grandfather (the good one) emailed me today to say he'd express-mailed me €150 left over from their last trip to wherever they went. Hooray! Except wait, does he know that I've moved/my new address? He says my sister arrived last night (family reunion weekend is this weekend), so it's possibly she told him, but what if she didn't? I have emailed him back to ask exactly this, but we'll see what happens. Basically in addition to the post office on Monday I'll go to Victoria Hall and ask a) if it's got there and b) if it does would they please hold it for me. I guess that means I can just go to the post office adjoined in the building - that would make sense. I'll go directly after my meeting with Philip. This is now a Plan(TM).

Unrelatedly, I still occasionally get confused by British usage of the word "bracket." When I say "bracket" referring to punctuation, I mean [these]. {These} are curly brackets, and (these) are parentheses. I mean, it's a pretty simple translation process, but it always takes me a couple of extra seconds to think "wait, no, not [these] but (these)." Unless I've just been misinterpreting everyone, which is entirely possible and would round out what appears to be today's dose of luck (exemplified by the GORGEOUS weather I can't go out in because I NEED to do my work).

EDIT: Instead, naturally, I've messed around with my layout. It's not pink anymore, and it IS one of the S2 themes...must learn to make custom ones at some point. Because seriously, these options are crippled. Plus with the millions and millions of LJ users out there, I feel like a couple hundred options is just...lazy, you know? (This was all true in S1 as well, but at least I knew the overrides...)
