String and sealing wax...

1. My username is annwfyn for assorted complicated reasons. I wanted a name in Old Welsh, as I was trying to write a thesis about Romanitas in Dark Ages northern Wales at the time, and was quite focussed on it. 'Annwfyn' is the Old Welsh spelling and word for 'otherworld', which summed up something I was trying to create at the time - an otherworld, a journal space away from my then-main journal of winterthing. And most of the good words were already taken.
2. My journal is titled My Own Private Otherworld for the reasons explained above. It is mostly an elaboration on the name of my LJ.
3. My subtitle is nothing - I've never put that much up there.
4. My friends page is also nothing. Maybe Annwfyn's Friends. It's too eclectic to have a name.
5. My default userpic is a pic of me when I was about eighteen. It was my mother's favourite pic of me, it's a rather pretty sepia pic, my sister took it and it's nicely neutral which I feel a default pic should be. I use a lot of other pics tho.

In other news, I am currently meant to be in work. I am not in work, however, but am instead in Weybridge, which is why I am able to write in my LJ. Bless Surrey County Libraries and their liberal internet usage policy.

Why am I in Weybridge?

( Why I am in Weybridge and not in work )

So, I'm here. Jez is working at the moment, and I am purging myself of miserable thoughts via LJ.

Oh, in other news, I'm not on LJ really at the moment. I'm mostly either in work, where I have no LJ access, or I'm at home where we currently have no internet access. The internet is theoretically arriving on Wednesday, but until then I'm offline, and so may not be reading LJ. If there is anything I should know about, e mail me (annwfyn@hotmail.com) or call me.

Any news?
