Well! All sorted and moved now, thank goodness. R demonstrated great strength in carrying heavy boxes full of paper and books up various staircases to our flat - most impressive. My computer is safely installed here now, and should even connect via G's machine once the firewall is sorted out! I'm very glad it's ok; I was convinced some horrible accident would befall it during transportation.
Calling was good last night, though I was tired and didn't dance. Talked to many people, which was nice, though I was rather concerned about some of my friends, who seemed in a bit of a state. At the end of the evening, I got into a very silly argument with a prick of a guy, about historical linguistics. He was one of the most arrogant people I've ever spoken to, even including students :-) After convincing him that he didn't know what he was talking about, I was drunk enough to tell him that he was very rude and aggressive. We then had a meta-argument about whether people who were too shy to have vigorous arguments were worth talking to (he thought they weren't). Finally, as I was going, I asked what he did, and he said he was studying at "the moron college". He laughed, and said I could work it out later. I said, "Oh, you're at Homerton then. So you're doing teacher training?" He sniffed, and said, "Yes. Thank you for your dismissive attitude". And thus we parted. :-)
Duncan came back to sleep on our sofa last night, and this morning after G left for work (rather late and very hung over) he helped set up networking for my computer, which was good of him. I have tidied _some_ stuff away, but there is still a mountain of it to sort out. Will go to the Co-op soon, and then to the jobcentre to see G for lunch.

What an arse. I think he would have been the sort of person who tried to set fire to my college during the 1930s. Unfortunately for them it's made of brick and has metal gates :)
