Getting ready for the edits starting tomorrow. Getting a little bit of toothache. And HSBC tell me that the reason the card worked temporarily was a kind of courtesy. The cheque wont actually be cleared until Thursday. ARRGGH!!!

Ah well I managed to give Mia a little money and we have a buttload of food in the house now, so we can last a day or so like that. I must admit being without a mobile or internet is kind of liberating. I mean intially when it's cut off it's like an arm. You wonder how you are going to button your fly with only one appendage... then you realise you were actually born with one arm so what the fudge are you complaining about, muddyfunster?

So yeah, big deal I can't make phone calls when I'm at home. I can't even charge up my emergency backup PAYG phone, so I have 15p credit on that till tomorrow. But yeah, doesn't matter. After a while you don'tmiss these things. Besides, as I always forget, I actually have a payphone outside my house. I now at least have a bit of change so I CAN run outside and call someone and say call me at home.

If I've leaned nothing else by being in this situation it's that you can get around anything if you have to. I've lasted for ages on no money, food, form of communication, and I've found a way to supply those things. It comes down to this, what are you prepared to do to keep things going? If you're out of options you're not trying hard enough. :)

Anyway, off to Christchurch Studios this afternoon. Got to see what kit they are setting up for me tomorrow. Wondering if I'm teaching the program or Will (our visiting lecturer) will be taking them through it. Time will tell.

Got lots of episodes of "Lost"and "CSI" to watch tonight so screw the Internet. We got what we need.
