    So. Full.

    Made enchiladas for dinner, chicken and steak. May have overestimated my portion sizes! :rotfl:

    Nothing much this weekend, went shopping today for the basics, made dinner and now it's study time. :cry:

    Hope everyone's having a relaxing weekend

    What a day :o

    Woke up late, ran about house, but still had time to grab breakfast-to-go and lunch, go me. Grab a tea from C0st@ 'cause I'm running late, bad. In to uni, studying away, got a decent amount done. Friend come in to chat, I'm talking away, hands flying about.... whack, into my cup of tea which goes all over my laptop. Could have cried.

    Get friend to hold it upside down, grab paper towels, mop up as best as I can but once done trackpad won't respond properly. Give it rest of day to dry out, get home and it's still all jerky and clicking on things randomly when I didn't click.

    Get hairdryer, blast it for 2 minutes, and it's fine. Phew!!! That could have been so expensive.

    No MFW news yet, just studying away, trying to avoid mishaps and get courage to go to the gym :o

    Hope everyone's Monday wasn't too bad!

    Phew! So glad it's OK. I've known laptops to die completely when drinks have been spilt on them. :(

    Hope you have a better day tomorrow, Cal. :)

    Secondly, my very worst interviews have always resulted in a job offer - I kid you not, so you never know.
