Oops, haven't blogged for ages. But other people haven't either, so that's good. Hehe.
My Dad has had MRI scans and things and it looks like he has two slipped discs in his neck. He was going to see a spinal surgeon person and see what they said. I don't think he's done that yet, though he may have. I shall have to phone my parents tonight and find out.
Although... my brother's online at the moment so he might know. Oh, apparently he's going to go back to work next week, so that's good. Apparently it will 'sort itself out'.
I downloaded the x-fire messenging console, and it has a handy indicator so that people can see how sad I am and what I've been playing. Yikes!
We went to see a mortgage person today because we'd like to buy our friend Phil's house. They'll lend us the money, though it's all a bit scary. We discussed life insurance and critical illness cover and all sorts. Took ages, and it's going to cost us a fair bit, and it'll be tough if one of us (namely me) ends up without a job, but... it's a really nice house. Besides, Hovis (the hamster) was really ill in our flat, at least partly because it was way over the safe 27 degree threshold in the flat. (They get very ill when it goes over that, a book said that we read.) A house would be cooler.
See, we're buying a house for our hamster.
I may go and do stuff now. Drink orange juice maybe. It's still hot, despite a pretty good thunderstorm this morning...
