Aft scope creep

[torquill]

I'm having one of those days where I end up getting sidetracked half a dozen times before I can do any of the things on my to-do list for today. All of these things are good and necessary, but they aren't really helping me feel accomplished.

One such situation today: I needed to unload the dishwasher, so that I could load it again, so that I could clear some counter space, so that I could bring out the flour I just bought and fill the flour bins, so that I could make the bread and buns I'm supposed to bake today. All good and necessary things, but aaargh. Did I mention I also had to go to two separate stores this morning to get the flour, eggs, and cheese I needed for baking?

Oh, and rice flour is up to $0.99/lb. Ouch.

I'm tired today, and this sort of Rube Goldberg situation is really not making my CFS happy. Hopefully once I have all my ducks in a row, I can perch on a stool for a few hours and rest a little.

Yes, they're here. You're not losing your mind. :)

I have a little stack of autographed ones that crept in by mistake, I should get them back to you... I've been waiting for the dust to settle before we talk logistics. :)

Awesome! If you don't mind returning the autographed ones, that would be grand.

They're all backed up on my PC (which has gone awol) so it's not like I'll never hear 'em again - just gotta find the damn PC!

The stack is ready to hand over any time I see you again... which hasn't been as often as I'd like of late. :) I'm working 45-hour weeks, so we'd have to actually coordinate something.

If your PC doesn't come back home (for whatever reason) I have rips of all the discs to restore your backups, so don't fear on that score. You were so generous in starting my addiction, it would be the least I can do.

Drop me a line and we'll work something out. I'm kinda jonesing for a Sapphire & Steel fix. ;)

Ah, I'm afraid you're laboring under a misapprehension: all I have are the Doctor Who BFAs, not any of the other series. So if you can't find the Sapphire and Steel discs, I can't help you. :/

We should still hook up so that I can give you the autographed ones, and I have the whole run of Doctor Who (by hook or by crook) if there's any of those you'd like to listen to in the interim...

Alrighty, they must still be lurking in an as-yet unpacked box.

You've gotten *all* of the monthly serials? Where'd I put that 4gb flash drive...

[luna-torquill.livejournal.com]

I just ordered #128, so yeah, pretty close. :)

Work has been hell this last week plus, but I have hope it's leveling out. I'll make a note in my to-do list to ring you up when it does.

Hey, you don't have (or know someone who does) the BBV "Time Travellers" audios, do you? There are a couple floating about on the net, enough that I'd like to track down the rest, but they're well over a decade old by this point. I can spend a bunch of time ferreting out used copies, but I thought I'd ask you first.

Alas, I am utterly non-conversant with the BBV oeuvre. I'll ask around. ;)
