Bloody Long Day

[laura_seabrook]

It's been a really long day today. Some days I just can't cope and hack stuff, but this wasn't one of those.

I left early to catch a bus that didn't turn up because it only runs on "school days" (I'm back, why aren't the high school kids?). saw my counsellor and talked non stop about the things I'd been doing for the last month -  I hadn't realised that I'd been so busy! Caught connecting buses (one bus following the other to a stop where I ran to the bus ahead of it) and saw Jenny in hospital - they're moving her back to the nursing home tomorrow. Went to Broadmeadow where I got a pricing on a return to to Lismore via Countrylink. Went into the city where I bought a new power supply, sound card and DVD burner (only to find tout from Kevin when I got home that the power supply and sound cards were no good, so I'll return them tomorrow). I caught the train to university and went to my post-grad seminar from a student who's basing her artwork on photos of "Hysterical Women" taken in the 19th century. Caught the bus to Jesmond and got a drink; then the bus to Wallsend where I bought Pizza for dinner, ate it on the seat outside the library and then went inside; where I found a CD that they hadn't marked off my list but which I'd returned, then borrowed some cool stuff; and finally caught the bus home.

A long and busy day, but I'm happy.
