The horns of a terrible dilemma

I have work to do - academic work, I'd like to hand it in this afternoon even though it isn't due until tomorrow (if I can hand it in today then I don't have to go to Trinity at all tomorrow and this saves me three hours)... and I'd sort of planned on doing some sewing today (get those Aikido bags finished, maybe make a fleece skirt). None of these things can be done here. Also, I have Alexander Technique at 2pm.

It's snowing. It's been snowing since I got up several hours ago. So far it isn't settling but I have hope. The BBC weather forecast is on crack as usual and tells me that it is raining. Nope. It's snowing.

I have a refrigerator full of fresh eggs, and some soup left (though it REALLY needs more veg added), and a kettle that can become full of hot water at short notice, and a computer I would like to play with even though I have no way of transferring anything to it today. All of these conspire to make me want to stay home...

but I have a warm furry sleeping cat in my lap and the ENTIRE INTARWEB in front of me. How can I leave? How can I even think about leaving?

The cat and intarweb will still be there when you get back.

allo, are you still ill?
I can't remember if you agreed to have me round for dinner on sat...
I'm supposed to be celebrating a friend's b-day, but would really like to come round.

Leave a furry sleeping cat and the web when it's snowing out? Nah...stay right where you are!

Hi Sweetie,

I'm devvie2 for the time being...silly reasons. Anyway, I've missed your posts and wanted to be added to your friends list...I still have you on mine. You don't have to though..just wanted you to know that. Hugs

Hello ewt. What a very strange coincidence to see you here. I found you on a friend of a friend's page. It must be over ten years ago that we first spoke (well tippety tapped) on IRC (#england). Are you and Shevek still together?

I'm slightly flooded by nostalgia, it seems so long ago... :-)

How are you doing?

Jxx. (josh@joshsmith.me.uk)

Yes, [livejournal.com profile] shevek and I are still together.

Have added you to my list, so you'll be able to see a bit more of what I'm up to; I have lots of friends-only entries these days.

Have a cookie. :)
