I seem to have forgotten how to write. I wouldn't mind, but I have this Tenth Doctor Ficathon thing that was meant to be in on Monday and I said I'd have it done by Tuesday and now it is almost the end of Wednesday and there are words but they are either the wrong words or they are in the wrong order. I have also forgotten what point I was trying to make (yes, yes I do try and Say Things sometimes, I hate myself for it, but there you go) and really if I hadn't started caring at some point I would probably just squidge together the bits that are there with words and then send away but, sadly (or possibly not) there are bits I like and I care about it being Quite Nice. Plus it is for someone else and I should stop writing such rubbish for ficathons.

OH GOD WHY IS IT NOT MAGICALLY WRITING ITSELF WHILST I MAKE TEA.

With the last teabag. There are no more teabags. THE WORLD IS CLEARLY ENDING.

Bank Once Again tried to cut me off from money - this time through credit card. "Hello, Ms. M-, did you buy something from PC World yesterday?" "Yes, yes, I did." "Oh. Right. Just checking."

It was Traumatic (not in any real sense, just in a rubbish way for me cause I had to Use The Phone and Call The Bank.) Then I had to answer a bunch of questions about my account and stuff which I magically knew because clearly when you change your address and then purchase a harddrive you are committing fraud, or something. Mother says I should be less judgey because is it not a comfort that they care? THEY MADE ME USE A PHONE.

Harddrive is beautiful and shiny. It will solve the slight problem of having a mere 5GB left on the actual harddrive, and the forever time it takes to load stuff...I assume that is due to lack of space. I am not watching Supernatural (six episodes left, No Spoiler, dude). Apparently I will kill Sarah if I do. UNFAIR. And, really, am pretty certain I never actually agreed to any such thing. (I am making a list of telly to catch up on. There seems to be A Lot.)

But I did make the Cafepress Shop prettier. And made more things. Because mindless repetition I can do.

Where are my words, dude?

You fibbed at me. You said you could not draw.

MY BANK HATE ME. I cry at them, and they also stopped beautiful preordered telly from coming when it was supposed to and I DID NOT KNOW until today, dude.

Oh they are evil fascist bully boys. We should burn them.

I did not fib. My drawing is poor. Are you doing drawing? Alice drew on me in chalk and I forgot and now it is all over my pillow. Sorry, I just noticed. Um. Bugger. MAKE PICTURES, LIZBETH.

I saw your drawing and it was GOOD. This makes me SAD, Jennifer. I demand that there be someone rubbish participating before I do anything, yes. Good.

DO NOT BURN THEM THEY HAVE MY debt MONEY.

Harddrive is good for storage but possibly will not affect loading time, that is usually RAM.

Good luck with making the words do the right things and go in the right places!

Yes, that makes more sense. I am maybe thinking of extra harddrive space to shuffle things around when ripping? And then they make a thing that is a GB and I stare and wonder if I need it and I don't. I seem to have 510MB of RAM. That seems silly and non-standard. Where is the extra 2 gone?

There is no tea anymore. Writing without tea is clearly madness.

Oh yes, more space is great so that you can make/rip things and not worry. I am constantly burning DVDs to get stuff off my laptop for space. I am putting things on right now so that I can burn them for my sister and it is a balancing act.

510MB is a really weird number for RAM. It's also low, I was using 512 for ages and finally got fed up and got another 1GB for my birthday and now I'm in love with my Lappy again, hurrah.

Is that the whofest thing? I've still got a nice blank-ish page in front of me. *conforts* Look for plot-bunnies and things like that behind couches.

Noes, this is a Ficathon, yes. I, foolishly, took three requests for whofest and have only done one and the other two have mere sentences, woe.

Gratuitous icon comment!

I am so with you on the not writing without tea. It is an impossibility.

Running out is somewhat unheard of. I did not panic. Noes.

PHONING PEOPLE YOU DON'T ACTUALLY KNOW IS STRESSFUL AND BAD.

There's a Government Health Warning ad y'know. Christopher Eccleston sits in an 'average household' and monitors the level of stress when someone has to phone someone they don't know. Apparantly it's enough stress to power a Volvo. The he says 'Don't phone unknown people, kids. Use the anonymous screen of the computer and NEVER LEAVE THE HOUSE. I'm Christopher Eccleston.'

It's all a big scam by the phone companies and the security office and MI5 to RECORD OUR VOICES FOR NEFARIOUS PURPOSES.

I am ranting.

Yes.
