Bad Stuff
* I have a cold. It's in the sniffly, feeling-sorry-for-myself stage.
* The release date for Final Fantasy X-2 has been put back.
* I managed to call [livejournal.com profile] secretrebel "Liz" on the phone. Hopefully she's still talking to me.
* I'm failing to agree a weekend date with [livejournal.com profile] ealuscerwen and Bella (for which I'm happy to blame Bella of The Invisible Choir Practice Commitments).

Good Stuff
* Today's mother and toddlers group went well, Beatrice (one biscuit, one piece of apple, one piece of birthday cake) has developed a sandpit obsession. Ryan (half a piece of birthday cake) only spent the last forty minutes of it on my lap.
* [livejournal.com profile] cuthbertcross's wedding preparations (the buying of dresses, etc.) are also going well. Despite having the indifferent-to-fashion combination of [livejournal.com profile] angry_marmot and myself as the clothes shopping posse. No more details in case Emily's Uncle [livejournal.com profile] dr_bob (adopted) is reading.
* My parents have offered to take the twins off my hands for a long weekend (the Hornsey Family Birthday Weekend) in March.
* Athory is going well (a write-up to follow sometime soon).
* My Patchwork Universe thread is progressing nicely (and I swear that the American guy who plays Dr Odom is related to [livejournal.com profile] telpher).

Other Stuff
* I'm playing Summoner on the PS2.
* I have Valentine Day plans (and, yes, they involve [livejournal.com profile] bateleur)

The release date for Final Fantasy X-2 has been put back.

It has? The places I've looked on the web all still list it as 20th Feb.

Amazon (.co.uk) have it as 12th March.

Hmm, so they do. Special Reserve, Play, Game, HMV and Virgin all still list it as 20th Feb, so there may still be hope. :)

Odd. It's now only a week away from the supposed release date, and there still seems to be some disagreement between the sites as to when it is actually out.

The main FFX2 european launch site (http://www.ffx2-europe.com/) lists it as 20th Feb, as does the 13th Feb edition of MCV (the games retail trade magazine).

However, both Amazon and Play are now listing it as 12th March. Maybe they have just sold out. :)

That struck me as a possibility too...

Both Amazon and Play are now back to listing the end of this week as the release date, so hopefully it will actually be out soon. :)

It's a very common mistake (assuming I'm the "Liz" you called her), so she probably is still talking to you ;-) Makes no sense to me, but I've done it, too (and so has she), and it's now a running joke that we're actually the same person. Hence this icon ;-)

Oh, and is there a gap in that weekend in March to have another go at the snow-spoiled plans?

Yes, it's all sadly true. I am now so confused about names that I have called Triskellian "Rhi" more than once.

I forgive you entirely. :)

Fear not, it's not as bad as the time I failed to recognise [livejournal.com profile] ealuscerwen at a party and addressed her as a complete stranger, just because she had slightly different hair. I wasn't even drunk.

(I have some sort of facial dyslexia, I think. For the first year of school I could only recognise people by their clothes, and they were inconsiderate enough to *wear different clothes every day*! Gah!)

I am moderately good at forgetting people's faces too. Plus I'm terrible with names (both remembering them and, in some cases, pronouncing them). It was a problem at work, someone would come up to me and start chatting as though they'd known me all their/my working life and I'd be thinking Who the **** are you anyway ?.

A small, possible one (!) - I've dropped you an email.

It's a sad thing, y'know - I'm sure 10 years ago that would've made it into the Good Things category !

They become Good Things after they've gone well.
