I forgot to mention that I successfully perfomed an epidural yesterday. It's quite a hair-raising process - you have to stick a large needle into the spinal canal, and then inject 4mls of morphine and local anaesthetic. The potential for harmful f**k-ups is quite great too. It was the first one I'd ever done, and it felt great when I got the needle in the right spot first time; better still when it became apparant that it had worked properly :)
Oh, and the obligatory meme:
1. What do you call me? or What do you think of me as?
2. What song makes you think of me, and why? or What would be my theme tune?
3. If you could give me one present, what would it be?
4. What one thing/event do you associate with me?
5. How well do you think you know me?

2. Hmm, lots of songs. Apocalyptica playing Night on the Bare Mountain, or Rammstein's Rein Raus, or that awful Nile track you subjected us to :-) Or NMA's Vengeance, because you always bounce to it a lot and sing along. I guess euphoniums would remind me of you as well.
3. More free time to relax!
4. Roleplaying. Or getting drunk at parties/post-pizza/CUSFS etc.
5. Quite well - we've talked a lot.

1. Matthew, usually. Or Emperor if I've spent too long on irc...
2. Can't think of a particular song. The soundtrack to a film about you would have moody classical music for the sad and/or introspective bits, and Apocalyptica for the exciting and/or angry bits.
3. The present of not having to do hut ever again.
4. Sheep. ;-)
5. Not as well as I'd like to. And not as well as I should, given how long I've known you now. Either you're enigmatic, or I'm useless. Or both. Ho hum.

Matthew, almost always.
2. What song makes you think of me, and why? or What would be my theme tune?
I'm not sure, really. Probably choral music rather than a song, really.
3. If you could give me one present, what would it be?
Peace of mind. Or a bottle of really special whisky.
4. What one thing/event do you associate with me?
One is hard, can I have three? Beer festivals, champagne cocktails and DCMS dinner last year.
5. How well do you think you know me?
Sometimes I think quite well, and other times you seem to shut down and I feel I don't know you at all.
Oh, I forgot...

1. What do you call me?
Hmm when in person emp, matthew, mcv I guess its more emperor with remote communication.
2. What song makes you think of me, and why?
For some unknown reason - Dave Dobbyn (from footrot flats movie) Slice of heaven.
3. If you could give me one present, what would it be?
A sheep *grin* Honestly - either your vet qualifications or better still a wonderful girl who would be perfect for you and equally smitten.
4. What one thing/event do you associate with me?
A certain party at relativity and my panicy non Cambridge reaction to Cambridge behaviour *grin*.
5. How well do you think you know me?
A little - not as well as I'd like.
