Bit of a classic saying, that, but it basically means that there's two more evenings until Mena comes home. I couldn't think of anything else to put as a blog title, and I did sit here for around 15 minutes trying to think of one.

At the moment I'm watching Chuck, and it's still making me giggle on occasion. I'm hoping Virgin 1 pick up Season 2 rather quickly, because I don't wanna load the episodes and watch them online. They're so much better on a big screen. That said, I don't want to wait too long for Season 2, either. Decisions decisions.

Work was a bit 50-50. This morning, it was rather stressful. I had to serve an 88 year old lady, who for the life of her couldn't sit still. She was quite a stable old lady, but every time I asked her to stay still when I wanted to take some readings, she'd either look elsewhere, or just move out of the way. It must've taken me about 15 minutes to get any sort of readings on the first test, and I didn't even bother with the other two. It was so frustrating, when she'd left, I leant back and let out an internal sigh of relief.

It didn't stop there though. All the way throughout the morning, I just wasn't having a good time. I wasn't getting anything wrong, I was just taking longer than usual to get it done. Thankfully, once I'd had some dinner and an hour to sit down and let it all wash over me, I was fine. The rest of the day went without any annoyances, apart from the onset of a headache, which wasn't very welcome, especially as most of Specsavers' lighting is very bright.

Tomorrow's my second day off for this week, as I'm having to work Saturday. I'm not quite sure what I want to do at the moment. I'm either going to make it third time lucky and have a DVD day, or I'm going to fire up FL Studio and try to at least get the music finished for that song I'd promised Mena I'd have done. I've had a complete lack of ideas recently, which is quite distressing as I really wanted to have it finished, ready for her to listen to. I guess if I get the music finished she'll still be able to hear it, and then I can focus on writing and recording some lyrics as and when I'm able. It'd be a shame if I can't finish it off though.

I also need to look up show times for The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, as me and Mena (and maybe some of her friends) are going to be watching it in a week's time. Once I've got showtimes pinned down, I can start to finalise her birthday party. I did say I'd get that sorted before she came back, and right now nobody's actually given me a concrete Yes or No, which is actually a little disappointing.

On that note, I'm going to be off now. I've decided that, seeing as I don't need to be up early in the morning, I'm going to entertain myself with a film, and I'm thinking that I'm in the mood for either Planet Terror or Death Proof, which I picked up a week ago with The Number 23. Already watched that. It wasn't bad, but to be honest the twist was pretty poor, as was the actual ending of the film actually. I'll watch it again with Mena sometime though, see what she thinks of it.

OK then, night night people! Until tomorrow, the last day of my 14 Days of Blog!
