Yet again, I have been mostly absent from online life, aside from a few stealth-like activities. The main reason for this (apart from my terribly slow desktop computer) is because of my Open University course. It's a killer this year, an unbelievable amount of work. I had it easy last year, I'm sure. I've just spent the last few weeks studying Pride and Prejudice and Frankenstein (1818), writing an essay on the narrative voices used by Jane Austen and learning all about the rise of the realist novel. I handed in my essay last night and now I'm planning my essay on character and genre in Frankenstein, of which I have developed an absolute obsession. I have three days to indulge in some extra reading (Paradise Lost) before I have to move on to Great Expectations and concentrate on the essay.

Anyways, sorry for being quiet. I'm catching up on my comments and emails now. I've had to delete all my LJ post notifications because I took one look at all two hundred of them and flailed.

I notice y'all are Twittering again. HERE IS ME

OMG, nine days until The Hub2!! Who's excited/skeered?

[livejournal.com profile] foreverbm is fabulous! Look HERE and HERE to see exactly why we think Michael and Ben are the bestest and the hottest and the sweetest.

And talking of hot, I was browsing [livejournal.com profile] tomfelton_daily and I found a brand new Piccy. Fuck me backwards on a bicycle, how gorgeous does he want to be?!?!?!?!?!?!

Day 37

I haven't been online much this last week due to things, stuff and widgets, so sorry for the lack of me. I'm sure it's been difficult for you all.

I've been smoke free for 37 days. On day 34, I didn't think about smoking at all. Today it's all I can think about. I've been knitting through the pain and I have a new friend to introduce to you all: Little Ted!



He was tricky becuase I had to use 3mm needles and keep the tension deliberately tight. Sewing his parts together (and doesn't that sound remarkably dodgy?) was nail-biting stuff because the yarn had to be pulled so tight to keep him together when his arms and legs move.

Today I've been planning my essay on the narrative voices and dialogue used by Jane Austen in Pride and Prejudice. It's not as easy as it probably sounds but, god-damn, motherfucker, I'm determined.

In fandomy news, I've been re-watching QAF (US) and if I wasn't smitten before I'm certainly all of a flutter now. I feel a picspam coming on good and proper.

The first part of Grief Counseling is now just days away from being posted. I'm excited about it and also looking forward to getting it all done and dusted so I can move on to the next project. I have started my Xangel in Spaaaaaaaaaace and poor Angel is already in a predicament and will unfortunately have to stay that way until I can get GC off my mind.

Now back to my essay and then I shall catch up with my 183 emails ~boggles~
