hmpf: Me painted blue (fanatic)
What is this 'spare time' you speak of? I think I knew it in a former life...

Seriously.

I. Am. So. Busy.

Words fail me.

In the last week I've had a visitor from England, have started uni again (and it's turning out to be a *very* busy term, especially since I have to make up for a lot of lost time now that I've changed my major), have *tried* to get some FS fansub beta work done, have made a shitload of important calls, have run a convention, have started making jewellery again, have tried to read more books at once than is humanly possible (for uni, of course), have been ill for about four days, have never slept more than maybe five hours a night, have been roleplaying (fun, but not *really* what you need right after organising and running a con)... and today I had a 12 hour day at uni. I really, really, really want my bed.

And the week is going to continue that way. Far too much uni work, another con on the weekend when I could really need the time to do uni work (at least for that one I'm only a normal visitor!) - but the con was too expensive to bail out now, and I still have to finish the fansub corrections.

Arrgh.

It's impossible for me to keep up with things here at the moment. Please, people... would you mind giving me a short update on how you're faring? Everyone, please. Or at least everyone I used to have some sort of closer contact with, in better times. I want to know how you are. I *wish* I could read your LJs, but Real Life is eating me up. Honestly. I mean, Farscape returned (and ended again), It's Walky is ending tomorrow, BSG, which I'm watching once a week during dinner, is off to an amazing start, and yet you hear nothing about it from me here because I don't have the frelling time to drool and squee as befits a fangirl!

Sad, isn't it?

Come on, guys. Just a few lines on how you are. I feel so disconnected with LJ-land. Please send me a life sign.

Thanks.

at least with all the adrenaline I'm suddenly turning efficient again.

that in addition to all the other exciting and stressful things that happened this weekend and on Monday, I also had to relearn very quickly how to drive, after four years of total abstinence from driving. I drove in moderate traffic late Sunday night, and in full Frankfurt inner-city traffic - a scary thing indeed - Monday afternoon.

I'm still crap at driving - even worse than when I still had some practice. Obviously.

On the plus side, I *did* survive those two trips unharmed, and so did the car.

In other news, I'm still/again totally drained, and desperately wishing I could bail on RingCon this weekend. But the con ticket was just a bit too expensive to bail now. Frell.

Oh, and today I had a chance to try to strike fire from a flint. Unfortunately I failed miserably. My respect for our ancestors has risen another notch.
