Tomorrow morning boyfriend will arrive. He lands at 10 and will be in town probably an hour or so after that. Picking him up at the train station. I'm nervous, but excited. He's already on his way, on the night bus to Heathrow. Can't wait to have him here...

 

I'll be heading to bed now so I can get up in the morning. Goodnight, everyone! :hug: 

Good night Thorn, and have a great day tomorrow. :)

Question #10, which I just finished was about Dr. Randy Pausch, and "The Last Lecture." Dr. Pausch was dying due to cancer, and he did this lecture that went "viral" in 2007, among the academic world. Oprah had him on her show, to showcase this lecture he did. The question was, "Watch this video, and then explain what your Last Lecture would be." The video is 10 mins long, and frankly, I found it powerful.

after i started to watch this, i remember Oprah having him on the show

it's something to think  about for sure!

Ok, this is disturbing. I just saw the time on my tablet - 3:40 - so I looked outside, and it’s dark out there. So yeah, it’s 3:40 a.m. not p.m. and I’m still awake, with no sign of being tired. I am in so much trouble tomorrow  today morning... *sigh*

 

Better get to bed...

That’s, like, every night for me. :P Night, Reader!

 

I’m up and about to head into town. To pick up boyfriend. I’m so excited! You guys probably shouldn’t expect to see me much today... or, like, at all. Will likely be busy with other things. ;) Love to you all! :hug:

That’s awesome. I’ve been using Gimp for that stuff myself. Used to have photoshop, though it might not have been a strictly legal copy, lol!

It’s quite powerful, but it takes some getting used to. Open source, though, which is nice.

 

Handed my laptop in for service today, to get the battery replaced. It may take as long as 26 days to get it back because they’ve had a lot of customers at the service centre lately. Could be faster too, but... Luckily, my iPad also has Scrivener and all my work is backed up in Dropbox. And I managed to get my bluetooth keyboard to work, so I can still write. Yay!

Was called a misandrist by some guy on Facebook. Told him it would be weird if I was, given that I’m transmasculine. He told me nothing about me was masculine. That if I wanted to be a man I should act like a man. I told him that if acting like a man is being a reactionary dick, I don’t know an awful lot of men. Nothing like having your gender questioned by strangers online, but I guess that’s the price we pay for being unapologetically ourselves. Choosing my battles better next time, though...

Good afternoon everyone...

 

So, I survived my late night after three coffees in quick succession, that is. Still feeling the need (craving?) for a fourth...

 

Have a great day peeps! 

 

That goes double for you and the boyfriend @Thorn Wilde :)
