Admittedly that was only some art this morning, so never mind. Apparently my brain needed to decompress by doing even less than that.

Work is over (though inevitably I logged in this morning, because I was paranoid an email I had sent made me look neurotic).* 18 days off, hurray. Instead of the aforementioned art I went and got petrol, and a pair of boots I took a chance on on Ebay have arrived and fit, which was not guaranteed. So I have a couple of days to relax (and clean the bathroom and take care of various bits of business...) before heading to [personal profile] antisoppist's for Christmas, before coming home again and heading to my parents for new year. Unfortunately, one of the things I didn't do is book a flight to Edinburgh, so I am on the mercy of the railways, and said mercy is very small again. But I'll have been on holiday for a week by then, so hopefully more relaxed about it. At least unlike last time I probably won't turn out to be tired on the train because I'm coming down with Covid.

Another thing that finally happened after a lot of faffing about is a Reykjanas peninsula** volcanic eruption, which managed to occur at 10.20pm ish on a rare night I was asleep before then. Videos are spectacular, though. It now seems to be quietening down a bit and the weather has been awful, so webcam footage is not so exciting any more.

*It was fine. Did send a different email so it wasn't the last one to that person, though.

**That peninsula is possibly redundant, given that the nes probably = ness.
