Notes to self:
Alarm clocks. If you switch them off, you need to be certain you're actually going to get up now, and not merely fall back into a comfortably non-alarm-interrupted sleep. Restful though it may be.
Glasses. Yes, you still wear them. No, they don't mysteriously disappear when you want to splash water on your face. Apparently you need reminding of this fact.
Salad. Should not, in fact, go up sleeves.
Notes to others:
Being disorganised. Clearly I'm not the only one. Yes, I'm looking at you, schools of the UK. The deadline was in February.
(Has anyone read the Prince What-A-Mess books, btw? I adored them when I was little. Perhaps unsurprisingly.)

I'm dying to ask. I really am.
Schools? Disorganised? Never!
Also, for the record, I'll jump on the "I do strange things with my glasses" parade. Like, go swimming and forget to put them back on, then wonder why all the prices in ASDA are fuzzy. Twice.
What? You mean you never feed your elbows? I'm calling the authorities! ;)
My elbows are on a diet.
and call it Captain Pepperyou simply must get it, and enjoy it through their eyes. *nod*And yes, best reason to have a kid - so I have an excuse to read all those books again. :D
really?
that shouldn't be there?
:P
I've done that with my glasses! Usually when I forget I'm not wearing contacts.
I've had the same CD in my alarm clock for over a year. It's a miracle I still wake up to it by the second or third song.
I don't have the contacts excuse, sadly. I've managed to forget to put them on, on the odd occasion - headed off to work, thinking, "Why is the world so blurry?"
I can listen to music repetitively, but not that repetitively. Eesh.
I don't usually, either! This is a very, very special case. I've even tried to switch the CD out, but my brain refuses to go along with it.
I used to have music to wake me up, but I don't have a clock radio thingy at the moment. I might get one, next time I get an alarm - I much prefer waking up to music. Although not to radio DJs, who are loud and grating and are a horrible way to start the day.
:-)
The superpowers thing would be a nicer shock. :D
One wee tiny teensy final little thing...When you say 'schools of the UK' you mean 'schools of England and Wales' dontcha :-D Us up here in Scotland have a seperate education system from the rest of you :-p
And, ah, true - but I'm sure that Scottish exam board workers say exactly the same about Scottish schools. ;)
Oh I'm pretty sure they do!!!
Salad: glad you've straightened that out for me. I'm making a note now. ;-)
And I'm glad I've cleared up the salad issue. My work here is done.
*breathe*
I'd be interested to hear what you thought of it when you get chance to read it.
I have to catch up on my posting about Stargate novels, come to think of it. I've not blathered about Trial By Fire and Siren Song yet. Must do that.
I've not read the others (I'm a shameless Janet!whore, so unless I know she's got a chunky role, I'd rather save my money) but I'd still be interested to read reviews.
(I liked it a lot too - I hear many people not liking the gore and stuff but that's silly. Like when people read fic with bad language and complain that it's not true SG cos they never swore on the show. Yes, granted, the group of them are adult and intelligent enough to express frustration/whatever without swearing excessively, and I don't like fic with gratuitous language either. But the reason they never swore on the show wasn't cos the characters never swear, but that it was a family show. Even more ridiculous is the idea that the wounds and scrapes they get into are really as sterile as we saw on the show. A staff burn has to be really gross. They just couldn't show us loads of blood and gore. Doesn't mean it didn't happen. Whoa, essay! Sorry)
