It's sort of organized daydreaming.<br /><br />Kunstem..., thanks! I consider this high praise.<br /><br />Chibi and Morose, academic justification for fan obsession sounds fine to me. And it works, too!<br /><br />James, you may be right. Speaking of which, should I send you my latest paper, so you can use your other work as a way of procrastinating reading it, and vice versa?<br /><br />Mary, the puzzles are difficult at first, but not so bad once you get used to them. But it sounds like you have a lot to do already!<br /><br />Greg, I may well be. I'll e-mail you when I know for sure. It'll be sometime after the 12th of December.<br /><br />Scholiast, that was tough! But fun. Thanks!<br /><br />Ms. Mood, a radio soap is just like a tv one, but cooler...with no visuals, you get to imagine more. I always had a favorite soap when I had tv, and got into the Archers when I had no tv. Speaking of which, do you know if there is any way of seeing Portuguese soaps on the internet? I discovered that I really like them (I only had seen Brazilian ones before, and I find them difficult to understand) when I was in Lisbon in July...I was just in time to see the last 3 episodes of (I think it was called) Dei-te quase tudo, and I'm eager to see one now from the beginning.<br /><br />Tiffany, yeah, they were quite cute. :-)<br /><br />Blue, I'm so excited about the trip actually...and the one afterwards. It'll be nice if we can meet up then.<br /><br />Daphnewood, 'a thorn in the side of productivity' is exactly it! I've always known you're a kindred spirit. Hey, you wouldn't be in California in either December or April, would you?<br /><br />Marion, yep, Panda nap...those are the really long ones. And speaking of ways of procrastinating, your blog has got me all looking forward to getting sea monkeys when I'm in the states over Christmas. I think I'll splurge and get the executive set. Thanks for the idea!<br /><br />Sophie, Lovecraft is wonderful, but nothing like the name would indicate. Definitely not romance.<br /><br />Mr. American, good point. Although I don't want to go mad slowly either. ;-)<br /><br />Siriroop, I'd love to see your blog, but don't have access. I'll have to try again later. :-)kimanandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02631078429676761765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14074807.post-50663842735755328392006-10-19T10:53:00.000+02:002006-10-19T10:53:00.000+02:00hmm a diff kind of "not dng anything" is what i ha...hmm a diff kind of "not dng anything" is what i have posted on my blog! <br />I like it that you have categorised the reasons :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10563990510319296798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14074807.post-49965968039699964872006-10-16T16:42:00.000+02:002006-10-16T16:42:00.000+02:00I have to check all these links -

Both visits.<br /><br />Stevi (it's very strange typing Stevi, and not Chloe, here)...yes, I know. I started with the synopsis when I was still in London, for when I'd miss an episode. Here, I keep thinking that I'll start listening to it again, so I'd better keep with the synopsis so that I'm caught up when that happens.<br /><br />Vanessa, I can spend days planning trips, for the imaginary ones, too.
