The Mancunian Candidate

I have now arrived in my new prison cell. Well, actually, it's uni accomodation, and I arrived two days ago, but there is a rumour going around that my accomodation is actually based on the design for a prison. That really wouldn't surprise me too much, given how much architecture is reused, and the similarity of purposes.

It doesn't have the internet yet, and won't until monday afternoon, when HORNET* (a rather odd name for something you'd want in your room) will finally be available to set up, but fortunately I have access to a computer centre for the uni very nearby, so I'm not entirely cut off from the internet.** I have done a very small amount of propagandising for Dr. Steel, but a rather larger amount of having fun. I also have had one person agree with Project Woven Death, but I can't exactly remember who he was...

... I'll have to sort that out.

But it is understandable that I'd forget, I have met, and got the names of, about 100 people minimum. I can't expect to remember them all. But I will try to remember those who I recruit to PWD in future. It probably doesn't help that I've had a total of about 7/8 hours sleep in the past two days, and have been drinking every night for the past four.

I've met someone who's in to Harry Potter slash fiction, and happens to have gone to my primary school (several years above*** actually), a girl who brought more clothing with her than I own, a woman who's reliving her freshers year despite the fact she's now a postgrad, and is really rather cool, in a kind of overly-immature way,**** and many other interesting characters. Including a woman who was going round flats with the accomodation officers, trying to find where she'd locked herself out of before going off to get hammered.

***Yeah, I kinda thought it was teen girls that read those things, but not in this case. She's actually mature slightly beyond her years IMO, just nice and quirky.
****I am a big fan of immaturity, so this isn't a problem.
