The wine is talking...
Mar. 24th, 2005 09:41 pmWhat’s the name for the inside bit of the elbow? And the same for the knee? I need to know! *curiousnoises*
Am so pleased about Bank holidays - 4 wonderful days off, to do lots of lazy flopping about! Yaaaaaaaay. I fear I may be getting idle, but I’ve just had such a busy week I’m strangely excited by the novel idea of doing nothing at all for a few days. Maybe I’ll suffer from sensory withdrawal and start drawing pretty things in the middle of the night, or write awful poems. Oh dear, I fear I may become effusively creative now. Eeeep.
I’ve been doing the social butterfly thing again. Aaaargh. Last Thursday
ixwin offered me her spare ticket for The Now Show being recorded for Radio 4, so we pootled along to the drillhall with
vectorious. This is always fun, and I was in giggles for much of it.
ixwin‘s comments about Belly-button fluff got lots of laughs, so hopefully got included in the final broadcast. Must get tickets for that more frequently. Got home and found we had a house gathering -
snow_leopard’s friend
snathe was visiting, and was very happy to see
happygoff and Chewie also visiting, who want me to feed their kitten this weekend. Must not forget that or will be very unhappy kitten. Friday evening the enterprising
snathe produced a jigsaw of the London Underground map, and it was inevitable with me liking maps, and maybe the influence of too much elderflower wine, that we decided to put together the jigsaw from memory. This was much easier than it first looked, except for the vast amounts of scary whitespace. Erk. Yay us! *bounce* I later terrified poor
elettaria who lured me onto MSN, by unceasingly waffling about polish drainpipes at her. Ooops. Elderflower wine makes me think oddly, I’ve decided. Bad me. Saturday I trekked boldly out with flowers, chocolates, a pile of pretty manga and other shiny goodies to Cambridge to enjoy the whole weekend with my lovely
cassielalone, who was very happy and pleased to see me. *happysmiles*. The whole of Sunday was spent in bed *shyblush*. Monday evening
snow_leopard had invited me along to a lesbian gathering in the dev with the lovely
bad_faery, Robyn,
doseybat and ...er...
timeplease (hopefully not a lesbian) and we fooded at Camden Wagamamas where they have *huge* jugs of sake. Ooopsie. I was a little too tipsy. Got home to find that
telpher‘s computer had exploded. Much fun! Tried to fix, but diagnosed the motherboard was toast *sob*. Tuesday I landed on
karen2205’s Coffee @ Borders gathering, were I dragged
compilerbitch and
doseybat along for the first time, met
rahael, gave
neonchameleon my old mobile phone (the one that used to belong to
mirabehn),
arkady was showing off her adorable doll of
reddragdiva,
ewtikins taught
mstevens how to crochet, and I enlightened a confused
hairyears on the magical directions leading to Haymarket Wagamamas, where we then ate at. I avoided the sake this time. Good plan. Tonight I’d had several invitations to various pubs (from
squirmelia,
pinkdormouse and
inskauldrak and others) but I’m feeling so exhausted I want to just stay in. So I am doing just that. Letting the elderflower wine do the talking. ooops. *waveshandsaroundrandomly*
I’m doomed to infatuation. Now in possession of a pretty photo of the Ninimonster, I had to go find the prettiest photoframe ever to display her loveliness in. I don’t know if this is sad of me, or soppy of me, but I’m totally obsessed. I miss her right now. Lots. Waaaaaah! *screams*
Lots of casting for exciting things next month - hugely pleased that
the_alchemist has cast me as the beautiful Anne Page in the Merry wives of Windsor which should be a muchly fun role to play, and
smhwpf has cast me with parts including Spike, Willow and Tara in the great big Buffy the vampire slayer readthrough of doom so am bouncing about that too. Yaaaaaaaaaay.
So that’s me. How is everyone else today?
