I am so epic fail at the Big Bad Blogger Challenge... but that's because I've gone on vacation. For one week. Visiting my parents ;)
I left on Thursday afternoon, and before that was running around like a headless chicken trying to get things done, since I knew I was going to be away for a week. So I didn't manage to get blog posts done for Tuesday or Wednesday, either. Of course, I wouldn't have been quite so headless-chickenlike if I hadn't procrastinated earlier. But you didn't hear me say that!
Now that I'm here... well... my parents do have Internet access, but it would kinda defeat the purpose of flying 2.5 hours to see them and then end up sitting in front of the PC most of the time, so I'm online only intermittently. Like right now, it's 12:10am and my parents are asleep, so I'm taking the opportunity to write this blog post, check email, and chat with Karl on Gtalk.
It is hard not being able to see and talk with him at our usual times... given that our time zones clash like crazy and we don't get to see each other that much in the first place, this is like... almost being cut off. Especially since I cannot say when I'll be online, so it is hard to arrange to be online at the same time. But, if we don't manage to see each other on Gtalk, we'll keep in touch via email. At least that's something. Thank goodness this is only for a week!
I can't get Plurk to load on my parents' 300kbp connection, although Plurk Mobile works great. Couldn't seem to post a plurk though -- I tried but it apparently didn't show up on my timeline. Meh :P
