(no subject)

I have been self-employed for EXACTLY ONE YEAR.

To note this occasion, I got a letter from the HMRC, inviting me to a workshop for new business owners, which includes a session how to fill in your first tax return. Um, thanks, but I've already been there, done that, and you're a year too late?

Honestly, I don't even know.

I suspect I have a wheat allergy or, at the very least, an intolerance. To this end, I've made an appointment with my doctor to be referred for an allergy test. I had to make the appointment in advance, so I won't even get that till the middle of December. God only knows when I'll actually get the test (and even then I'll have to wait for the results).

I know it's not life-threatening (I seriously NEVER EVER want experience anaphalactic (sp?) shock). But it is bloody annoying.

I downloaded XNALara so I can mess about with Mass Effect figures in it. Because I can, I suppose. And because I like shit like that (I may have ditched my animation degree, but I am still interested in those things).

Also I love the idea of modding textures - always have - tried to do some when I got into Poser a decade ago, but didn't really know what I was doing and gave up. Maybe it's time to try again! Also also, references for fanart! I'd draw fanart for Mass Effect more often if I were more confident of drawing the aliens, but I'm not.

(I just tested out XNALara, and it does work; well, it loads. It should work. We'll see over the weekend, no doubt!)

Meanwhile in ME2:

~ recruited everyone possible, except Kasumi, because I've never had enough points to get her DLC. So.

~ Now randomly scanning planets and picking up side quests! Found me some Eclipse mercs, so expecting lots of shooting!

Next up: more side quests, then the loyalty quests (dear Garrus and Tali, get on that, will you?), and then, eventually, back to the main story, I guess
