Giving up dieting for lent
First day of lent, and someone brought a huge and very yummy chocolate cake into the office. *lickslips*. Therefore, I am resolved to give up not-eating and therefore to stuff myself silly. Is this missing the point? *wonders* Last week I excelled myself in cooking vegetarian curry for *5* people and it was divine. I should do more of that. I like being able to cook again! *bounces*
Also - the brick of doom has been conquered. I have finished reading War and Peace. Finally! The epilogue is fascinating, isn't it? *nods* Now off to read something a bit ... er ... shorter. Probably with lesbians in. Or maybe my Norway guidebook (yes, I'm considering a trip to Norway as it appeals to my sense of strangeness!) Or something.
Postman has been bringing happy goodness this week. Firstly, a shipment from Japan bringing some Moi meme moitie goodness. Then a nice box containing Gin Truffles. And I'm expecting a big box of goodness from Amazon containing Chobits and Haibane Renmei and more goodies imminently. *happysmiles*

Re: Joys of Lent
*Grins* It's very nice to be remembered/be identifiable. Thankyou for the compliment! I 'll recall that when I have one of those days, where I look in the mirror and groan :@
I think I might have hear of RazorBladeKisses: I'm going to look them up on the net after your recommendation.
Yes, I have to admit, have a big box of lush stuff udner my bed and as for those bookshops - heaven! - i went there last weekend and came back with a couple of bags! Heaven is an old dusty bookshop full of old favourites and new surprises. Or at least one heaven of many good things!
So maybe my friend is going to be worse for wear than my other friend!
I might see you at the gothic choir thing - I'm at the earlier one, due to wanting to also go, to the Vampyre Connexion meeting later that night, but I may bump into you - which would be good!
So I heard - and saw your earlier post about the very gothic kitchen. Hope you were all able to sort everything out - sometimes I think inanimate objects conspire against the human race to get their own back for being mere manual labour workers! Was sorry to hear about your plant,as I have one I am very fond of, had him for quite a long time, and they don't talk back! ;) - but had a couple of other plants that I liked, die on me after being moved or something. :(
Looking for work at the moment so pretty free. Yes, I would love to come and visit you all! I'llhave aword with Rose as I'm seeing her tonight.
Send you a big hug, and speak to you soon.

Re: Joys of Lent
Try looking for RazorBladeKisses songs "The Butterfly" and "Deadly Yours", my favourites. Lots of violin goodness and pretty words. I'll play thme to you sometime if you have difficulty getting them. I'm sure you'll love them. I hope they play in London again sometime soon.
I spend hours getting lost in those bookshops. So much good stuff in there. Plus theres ladders to climb and dusty cellars and lots of creaky floorboards. Someday when I own a castle it'll have a library like that. *dreams*
Kitchen appears to be sorted now - Rose is truly lovely and paid excessivly for new stuff (even though she can't afford it) and we have a shiny new kitchen. I'm getting excited about cooking again, and comign up with good ideas. Just ask Rose about the curry I made the other week. She's been wanting me to cook more like that, so when you visit, maybe I can be pursuaded to do the cooking magic again. Not that I ever follow recipes, so who knows what will happen? *wonders*
Sad about my plants. That's the most upsetting of all. :(
Big hugs and see you soon, sweetie.
