jackmaybenimble Flag Darling Flist,How have I missed thee?Let me count the ways!!I hate having no net access at home, and no personal use at work. But I love my house (though the commute sucks), I like most of my colleagues, I adore my big bosses, both of whom seem to reciprocate (though there may be a potential ....thing with one, which may be awkward. And wonderful. I was giving her grief 10 minutes after we met and we haven't stopped since. *shrugs* ) Cards and texts from my darling lifeasanamazon and littleloonlost have taken the edges off my aloneness, so thank you for those, my loves. God knows how I'm going to catch up with all thats been going on with you all (did I mention Im in a pub having trailed my laptop in on the village bus?!! I have 40 minutes to do this and order my groceries for delivery) but know that I miss you lots, I love you more and my life is paler without you.*hugsflisttight* I feel: chipper chipper

jackmaybenimble Flag I have the keys for the new house.All 6 of them. (I know! And that's not including the missing key for the external garage door. Though the internal one needs two different ones, one to open and another to lock. Huh?? Plus there's one for the side door, one for the interior kitchen door (plus a spare), one for the rear garden door, and one for the front door. Comes as a bit of a shock when I've just been carrying one around for 5 years....The house is great - apart from the central heating not working. (I know; I should have turned round three times and spat, lifeasanamazon) But that's the agents responsibility so they better deal. ( Picspam hereCollapse ) Tags: new homeI feel: tired tiredI'm hearing: WaT

jackmaybenimble Flag I'm a geek. I can live with that.So I was playing "Free Rice" while eating lunch (yeah, I know, I work with words for a living you'd think I could do something non work related, but see Point One.) And the word that came up was "sempiternity". Now, having (a) done Latin at school and (b)sung more Requiems than I've had hot dinners (see Point One)I know that semper means always (as in Sempiternam Requiem) and eternity is forever, so I kind of drew the right conclusion. But then I stopped and thought about it (see Point One). When did we stop using that word? Because its so cool. And this is also interesting for a look: http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/SempiternitySempiternity. I'm bringing language back one beautiful word at a time.ETA: If you one of you sweethearts who is better at that kind of thing than I (so that's like, everyone...) would care to make me a Gibbs Abby pic with the word Sempiternity, I'll pay you in a drabble/fic of your choice in my field. Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?Current Location: workI feel: geeky word nerdI'm hearing: rabble

jackmaybenimble Flag So, uhm, news time, I guess.Well, where shall I start? I have a suspected grumbling appendix. Again.We bought a new car. An Audi A3. Named Agammemnon.The Heart moves into the new office in town on 10th October.I have to move to start the new job on December 3rd. But have also applied for a Creative Copywriter position at the same place which would be more fun as it's working across all depts.There is a very large wolf spider on the ceiling of the bedroom.New Ncis tonight (feel free to spoil me) and CSI on Thursday (please God someone spoil me).The End. Love, Jack.I feel: awake huh??I'm hearing: NCIS
