well not really by I had to title this something and its late and I'm knacked but I have an early flight to catch.
OKay I'm healing, legs still look bad, the left mroe than the right, can't stop wanting to scratch but know it will only make it worse, have failed on this a couple of times.
Head is better, hair growing back. Actually rather unexpected suprise really, its growing back White which might look very cool on me. So its not all bad.
Off to Spain in about 5 hours, well out the house and to the airport anyway. It seems I've been persudaded to take a beach/relaxing/non working holiday for a bit, still banaged up a bit so this should be interesting. It's the Island of Majorca/Mallorca. Been before when I was younger staying in the mostly German area so this time staying in Palma and there's a "Club" there so at least there's something late night.
After that heading to Kentucky to see people and maybe sort out some Non-work Work.
Be back in London around 20-25th of this Month but then off to Greece for a week in September. Promised my Father i'd lend a hand on this new project of his and i'm not paying for anything flight/accomodation/food/expenses to woot! Think Harvard University are paying, not sure have to check when back.
I'm not sure if I've packed certain things so going to do that now, still haven't gotten round to getting a new Camera after losing the one in Germany so might get one at the Airport.
See everyone when in Country.

Its 12:30 i've just turned 23, my legs look like something I once made for a low budget horror flick and i'm knackered. I don't know what the Day will bring. Oh and after watching the various American news networks over the past few days the best one to offer the least bias and actually interesting news would be Naked News. I'm not sure if thats really bad or not.
I'm going to bed.

I'm able to walk now, well sort of and my legs are completetly red from the lower thigh down to the ankle and all well not nice. But the pain has subsided a fair bit. The top of my head is still fairly red i'm told (I don't want to look in the mirror to see yet) and the hair loss if rather bad. I'm told it will take 6 months to grow back so rather than having it in patches I might just get it shaved off when its safe and let it all grow back together.
The problem is now I am really really bored, I can't really go out and i've just spent most of my time watching films. Currently on a Music Film bent - Blues Brothers, O Brother Where Out Thou etc
Managed to go visit the other guys Yesterday, there doing better. Both look a lot worse than I but all bandaged up. Some very cute girls in those odd uniforms wondering around the Hospital.
I've been promised a Weeks holiday in either Spain or Greece when I'm fit enough so ill be back after that.
Sucks really, miss seeing you lot and going out oh and Drinking of course - conflicts with the Meds apparantly.
And the worst things is the accident ruined my boots I was wearing. I'd only had them a month, but they did stop anything happening to my feet so it's not all bad.
Edit: Ooh trying out some new snazzy tech bits for work on this laptop including portable vid equipment and other stuff including a new IP Masking program.

I have had rather dramatic hair loss and skin damage over my extremities which I have been assured will heal and grow back in time, though the hair i'm told will take quite a bit longer.
I really miss seeing you all so now i'm not sure when ill be back in the country. I would hopefully like to make it for sometime around september but I'll just have to wait and see.
Additional: Just finished watching the lastest Dr Who series as I missed most of them (what else it there to do) and is it e or are they just really terrible?

Work's picked up, thank god. I was getting bored milling around doing well not a lot. And good thing to i'm rapidly running out of money, it's slump time in the Art Depmartment Bis so it looks like quiting Work and making that my full time occupation ain't gonna happen anytime soon, it's far to unstable and unrealible that ill have to stick at drowning in World Affairs and Drastic Action for the mean time.
Into London on Thursday then. Meetings and organising things, not the fun part of work but its something to do and it leads to the more interesting parts eventually. Eesh you leave any part of anything you do to someone else for the slightest amount of time and it all comes collapsing down around you.
Now where's the Gin....

The adventures round the globe of SV_Harlequin will written in the morning as I'm knackered.
Edit: Popped into The Dev after finishing Christmas shopping and seeing as the last time I was there was the first day "under new Management" and... meh.
From what I saw basically all they have done is sand done the floors and paint the walls black no? It also seems to be some sort of Time share scheme where during the day its a normal/rock pub and as 7pm approaches the Alts/Goths filter in, the music changes and the "other people" leave.

If anyone needs/want to share?
Right gotta sort out stuff to take to the office and pack stuff and book train tickets to New York.

Huh! Well I never would have guessed,
Ill be in the Dev from around 7pm, I fancy wondering round Camden a bit see if they have started on any of the changes yet. Would be nice to see people for Drinks that I didn't say bye to before I left.
I won't be back until the first week of October after and its only for a couple of days then i'm back well "Home" but I do have plans to be in L.A. for Halloween, well the 27th anyway (I would like to be back home for the 31st, The Last Dance are on).
Right i've got so sort out some stuff to take back with be and then i'm out.

Well that didn't last very long, I wanna comed back. The US is boring me and i've become even more English, if I start wearing football strips, I need to be put down.
On the bright side I have found some very good Deathrock bands I actually like and could listen to more than 1 song by.
Right breakfast then er... something I might get the train to New York and er drink.
I can't sleep properlay lately, I need to drink more or less or something..
- Music:Unnamed - Antiworld
Now family stuff until then, ehhhhh.

Edit: Oh yes apologies to people who I was meant to meet at Infest but someone popped up Saturday morning with a more interesting proposition so I blew off the festival, meh only lost the ticket price so no big deal.
Another Update: Yeah drinks then before I leave then? Friday Big Red sometime, planning meh. Or I could just have a week of leaving drinking unitil then (I like this idea, it invloves no planning) with a final leaving drinking on Friday.
Unless of course anyone can think of somewhere else amazing, astounding, fantabulous.....?

Anyway i'm off out (gonna drive in for a change) and thought i'd make an early post before hand. I'll going to be incredibly busy until I go off to D.C next month and won't have a chance to do anything in an orderly or well disposed manner.
Well this weekend should keep me calm or at least lower the coloured bars in my head that seem to be going quite high recently with what has surpisingly been a lot more hassle than I thought it would be.
Oh and I hurt all over for the last couple of days after some very bad work desiscions to test some new gear out at night (okay its night gear so it kinda has to be done at night) Drank and ate and drank and drank some more as apparantly is tradition for the company before they send people off on contracts.I wasn't going but seems I had to drink the same amount if not more so. Did however seem to have consumed a whole pig in the form or Bacon an Sausage sandwiches since then though in an effort to disguise the body ache and large amounts of very small but loud Drummers that have taken up inside my Skull.
I have begun to amend this though by booking an appointment with my masseuse to come to the office at lunch at which i think i shall play on the Wii which for some reason we now have (I should get one for Christmas) and probably should eat healthy stuff aswell..... Nah I think ill ignore that and get a MacDonalds on the way in,

So i've done with Cyberpunk stuff for a while and getting Wild Palms on DVD as my last thing to finish on the subject so far, so its onto steampunk.
This was brought on by playing WarMachine 5 times over the weekend and losing only once to I find I really rather enjoy the idea of SteamPunk which i really didn't much before (always thought of it as no style, i mean how can something made ot iron and powered by giant steam tanks be stylish) .
I picked up a copy of SteamBoy, a Riverworld DVD of Sci-fi Channels attempt to do Farmer's Riverworld. I'll wonder round the bookshops and otherplaces tommorrow morning before I leave and see if I can find anything else.
Edit: Come to think of it I actually have a fair bit of stuff that could be steampunk, Against The Day by Thomas Pynchon, Anna Dracula and some other stuff by Kim Newman, Imperial Moon by Chris Bulis, LXG stuff etc. Eh Ill have a look on Wikipedia and see what it says. Though really I prefer my Steampunk running along the lines of Technomancy so some Magic and Fantasy stuff thrown in for good masure.
