Yesterday I finally received my final schedule for the first two months of this semester and was able to plan my life, above all my trips to England as well as Linus' here. But, as I knew deep down, booking tickets with this short notice is expensive. And considering flight times and transportation costs my cheapest and best option was about twice (or more) as much as I usually pay. The result is I'm skint and that this autumn will have to be a very frugal one. No shopping. No excesses. Nada. Except a new computer - but I'm borrowing for that and I can't do without it. C'est la vie.
Then I've rediscovered a problem with laptops. Since the keyboard is attached to the screen and I like having the screen quite far in on the table (so that I can do other stuff on my desk as well) I have a tendency to but lots of weight on my elbow which is placed on the desk when using keyboard or touch pad. The result? A bad pain. And I've been here before. Last time I had to keep my arm in a sling - it hurt that badly - but I'm trying to be wiser this time. Lets hope I manage.
HAd lunch outdoors today in a park. It was lovely.
