10:05 pm Sunday 21st November 1999

Well, how about that, I waited until after 10:00 pm before I started work on today's diary entry. ;)
I was extremely bored last night, and just had a lie down for something to do at about 10:30 pm and then when I woke up again at 2:00 am, decided "stuff it" and went back to sleep. That meant I woke up at 7:00 am and lay round because I couldn't get back to sleep. I finally got down to brunch about 10:00 am and I wondered whether I was being a bit confronting by wearing my silver cross earrings, but in the end it didn't matter since there was virtually nobody there. I came back and then walked over to the lab. It was raining and so I took the coat and umbrella and started puttering about at 11:00 am. I worked up the 4 reactions and ran NMR of the two new dimers. At about 1:30 pm I figured I had done enough and came back to John's. It was still raining.
Bummed about and Susan and Jules came down for coffee and chats and so it was nice to see them for perhaps the last time in quite a while as their $1600 or so worth of stuff will be arriving at the house tomorrow and obviously soon after they will be moving in.
About 6:00 pm I was getting bored again so I went for another walk. I headed over to the lab again and decided to clean out my hot-mail account. After about an hour of ruthless cleaning I had discarded +800 k of old messages (about 300). It was necessary because I was approaching the account limit again. Thankfully most of the messages were far from essential or even relatively interesting.
I came back home and bummed around, had dinner, chatted to Soba and then Gidget (who should have been studying) and then went for a shower. Came back rang my parents and chatted to them for a while and that's about it.
Jules's thankfully installed a new copy of Netscape on my computer, because the old one was crashing constantly, so "thanks Jules's". :)
Hmmm… so, what else? Not very much. It's still raining and that's about all. Have to get around to returning some clothes sometime soon, I also need to respond to email from Illara, Shirley and Ocky.

11:10 pm - Ok, time for beauty sleep (obviously badly needed *s*). Byeee….
