Fire walk success - I don't want the world...
http://angua.livejournal.com/691795.html
I dont want the world. Oct 30th, 2009 at 11:55 PM. I am happy to report that I have successfully walked across hot coals twice and have no burns, blisters, marks or other injury. There are a couple of photos here. But unfortunately no-one managed to take a picture of me during the actual walk :(. Thank you to everyone who came and supported me and thank you to everyone who sponsored me. I should hopefully have raised nearly 300 for the Arthur Rank Hospice when I have finished. 8 comments Leave a comment.

Joy from despair - adventures in academia. 21 July 2009 @ 04:55 pm. Two months ago I'd failed to get the British Academy fellowship, and was pretty much out of prospects for next year. I came back to Oxford Friday, loaded up the in-laws' car on Saturday morning with stuff from the house that would accompany them on the road trip to Zurich, and spent Sunday in the Pembury Tavern getting people (specifically,. To distract me from the prospect of Monday's interview. My first feeling that this might all go o...

Random Transient Noise Bursts with Announcements. Trains, Parks, Planes, and Screwdrivers. Aug 24th, 2009 at 9:54 PM. And there was no way to get it to stop. Once I'd worked out how to drive everything from the armrest then things were fine, though I did have to ask the man next to me not to put his elbow on my controls because then even more weird stuff happened. 3 comments Leave a comment.

Feb 16th, 2011 at 10:15 PM. So, as is semi-traditional at this point, I'm asking who's going along to P-Con this year? And I should be along for most of it, and wil likely be somewhere in the bar for most of the weekend. We'll see you there, if you're there! 19 comments Leave a comment. Feb 16th, 2011 10:23 pm (UTC).

The Rest of my Life - From the Depths of the Sofa
http://frandowdsofa.livejournal.com/463369.html
From the Depths of the Sofa. April 28th, 2014. The Rest of my Life. Today I am 55. I have just served on my last convention committee. I spent quite a lot of Lent thinking about what my life would look like now - how much I wanted to stay connected with fandom, what I wanted to do on a daily basis, project priorities, health issues, all sorts. I like jumping off cliffs, and I haven't done a really big one for nearly 25 years. April 28th, 2014. A big move - I hope your new home brings you much joy xx.
