18:10 HI GUYS! I'm back! House almost ready! #

18:34 House is getting three cleaners on Saturday for 8 hours, then some ikea furniture #

18:35 In the meantime, it's the hour of the seagulls, the sky is pink, and one of the churches of the street just rang the beginning of Mass #

18:36 Lisbon is so beautiful I could cry! #

20:23 Wow, I have a lot of photos to post. Might do them all then choose the 365 ones! #

22:46 Uploading photos and more photos #

23:23 Countryside photos getting a little old. Ready for house photos now! #

23:23 Though I just uploaded really cute sheep. #

23:27 Order of acrylic left the UK 2 weeks ago with ParcelForce (Royal Mail), It was supposed to have arrived in 3 days. Um, yeah. #

12:25 @Eolo_sama I'll take work with me. And I'm going to SUPERVISE, haha. No, really, just keeping my mother company. #

12:40 @Eolo_sama You look at them do it, and shout FASTER! FASTER! #

12:50 @iseedead_people Pff. 2,359, baby. #

13:02 It totally feels like Summer today (inside a heated house, of course). Still, weird. #

13:31 [Almanac] 04.02.09 tinyurl.com/btlb4o #

18:53 SO TIRED. Still so much to do. #

18:54 @FriendlyMonster *hugs* #

19:40 @PrincessPoochie Packing! Because with unpacking it's all fun because you're in a new house! #

01:06 Business supplies are packed, now for the rest. Then cleaning the house. Oof. #

01:45 @fishbite Tamos quaseeeeee #

01:48 Right, have to go finish packing + clean. Then off we go! ☁ ✈ ☁ #

03:20 @sophiachou Aw, thank you darling! :) xxx #

13:41 And once again, having the photo for today planned, I end up taking a picture of my cat. hah #

15:27 Oh yay yay yay, Charlie Brooker is on Twitter! #

15:38 [Almanac] 03.02.09 tinyurl.com/acj3xo #

16:51 Time to take Crowley to the vet. Oh, the joys never cease. #

17:57 WTF tinyurl.com/ap5k7y #

17:58 We're back from the vet, everything's fine, Crowley is ready to travel on Thursday! #

21:36 Pizza ordered. So need junk food today, it's terrible. #

22:50 Two days to Portugal! Damn, pickings are slim on the apartment front.. #

23:00 And, of course, next week, when I'm supposed to be looking for a house, Mother has roped me in to go North #

23:01 to help supervise the planting of 1000 almond trees. For four days. Yes, that makes a lot of sense.. #

23:25 This one is messy but adorbs: tinyurl.com/cg4s8w/1509153# #

16:04 £400 in bills. Awchie. #

18:02 I love Intrepid: www.intrepidtravel.com/trips/VSV - you can steal the itinerary and do it for cheaper and with better hotels! #

18:02 Which is totally what we did in Japan. #

18:04 It's odd because while I really want to go and settle down in Lisbon now, I also have the overwhelming urge to take off and travel far away. #

18:05 I also wonder if there would be a date where me and all my twitpeeps could be at the same place in the States. NY anyone? #

18:14 Ooops. Intrepid London (intrepidlondon) is now following your updates on Twitter. haha #

18:48 Re: NYC - Next summer, maybe? A weekend? :D #

19:11 So, massive TwitterFest on June '09? :D #

20:08 Need some energy, need to go pack the rest of the library. Hello, Toffee Crisp! #

04:15 So tired. #

18:43 Just got an e-mail with the title "Power Tools with Attitude!". Err, ok. Surely that's an accident waiting to happen? #

00:50 Getting very nervous with Paraphernalia + move. Will I have to take everything? Will my suppliers get my stuff here on time? #

00:51 Will I be able to work properly in the middle of all this madness in a strange house? Shall I close my Etsy shop? Argh! #

20:14 Hours of work done, now hours of packing. One day, one day, I will have a life! ;) #

20:19 Yes, 342 followers, that is indeed my glamorous life! :P #

20:34 Crap, just took a look at the new boxes. I think we're gonna need a bigger boat. #

20:38 I love wall decals, but need the space on my wall for art! Hummm.. maybe on some Ikea furniture? #

20:46 Right, back to packing. Jeez. #

00:38 Oh man, I just crossed two things off my To Do list that have been there for 4 weeks! Jeez #

01:17 Eating a teacake. Biscuit+jam+marshmallow+chocolate. So wrong and yet so right. #

16:42 [Almanac] 28.01.09 tinyurl.com/b9ddac #

22:19 So so so so behind on my e-mails. Will spend three hours doing that today. Sorry guys! #

22:20 Good news is I managed to work for many many hours today already, which is great and very needed. #

00:41 Was just told by an Etsy seller she's not responsible for missing packages. You can do that? Apparently. News to me! #

07:03 WE'RE DONE. It only took what, 8 hours of final proofreading and printing? #

13:47 Made an error on the pagination. Printing the thesis again. ARGH. Thankfully not the appendix, jeez. #

14:12 Eating a Kinder Bueno for breakfast. Bad, bad Vanda. #

14:32 Right, time to put the bread in the oven for lunch. #

17:51 I want a tattoo with a housemartin, but not a damn sailor jerry swallow! Difficult.. #

17:53 This is so full of bullshit: tinyurl.com/5eajuv it's amazing, lol #

17:55 Surely the first sign of land being near would be a seagull, not a swallow. And it's not called a sparrow either, for chrissakes. #
