When do you get home?
It feels a bit weird to be in my flat by myself at the moment, but kinda nice after living on top of someone for weeks. I expect I shall miss her when I go home and the flat is all cold and empty.

Flying back tomorrow, arriving home Friday morning. Ridiculous transfer at Houston Bush International and thus longer travel times which means possible incidence of old crankypaws but at least walk home with suitcase from station is about 200m.
Annoyed about half a stone weight gain, wish I could leave it here in the land of sky-blue waters (filled with bovine growth hormone). I blame cheese, potatoes, microwaves and ridiculous US-only cravings. Steam room, am coming to get you...

I'm feeling down again. I don't know if this is being back at work, or being back on the interweb.
I'm contemplating Cybersuicide - or, if there's a better word for just deleting your MySpace account, your Flickr, your blog, etc.

Bah, instead of getting to enjoy my long weekend, I came down with the EXTREME DEATH LURGY FLU so I've spent the weekend in bed. Was just dragging myself into work, when I get a message from my boss saying "there is no power - work from home if you can" I told her I probably couldn't, but to let me know when it was back up. NOT UNTIL 8PM TONIGHT!!! yay, unexpected day off.
Anyway, I've been productive while ill. I put up shelves. I bought the Tiffany elephant lamp and a little antique table to put it on. (I did this while still in the happy floating stages of illness.) so my flat looks gorgeous. I have less CDs than I thought I did. I bought a 750 CD rack, only to find out that I only have 500 CDs. Must buy 200 more! Hurrah!
Actually managed to do a lot of mixing and even a little recording. (This is hard with the lurgy so you have to fill yourself full of lemsip and sing one line at a time.) It makes my voice sound really wispy and etherial girl. I like it.

I am eating loads of spicy food to drive it out. I made the hottest curry in the world last night. And super lempsip, which is honey lemon lemsip, mixed with cloves and cinnamon and lemon juice and honey. Actually, you could probably leave the lemsip bit out and it would be great anyway.
Also, I have new glasses. I feel like I'm on drugs, they are so strong. The world looks all bendy funny. But then suddenly I realised that I was able to read writing on posters FROM ACROSS THE ROOM. I feel like I have X-ray vision. I can see bus numbers all the way down the street! I have on the purple architects glasses today. Tomorrow I may wear the green ones.
Has Kerr made it over? Anyone know if there's any updates on his 'Rents and the accident? Ah well, I'll drop him an email and tell him we're here.

Just been offered more gigs by a promoter - and a live radio show! Eep! I have to think about this. Not to bite off more than I can chew and make it all not fun again, but it's so tempting when you're having a nice rush of energy and things seem to be happening.

Have four minutes left on the web cafe... there is a rolling walking thread on here somewhere, I think. If there's not, there should be.

I could easily have been Emsk. Everyone at her party has had the killer death lurgy. I'm going to blame O'Farrel, I could have sworn he was hiding a sneezing chicken.
i have realised i was heading for the lurgee all day the saturday of the party though. at the time i thought the swallowy throat was aftereffects of poptimism - too much shouting and laughing - but realised when i went to bed sunday morning it was the beginning of the edl. but WHO DID I GET IT FROM??

So, sandbox again! Did you all see that cuffufle on the other thread? I hate it when ILX starts arguing with itself, it all seems so undignified.

yeah, seriously. the spanish trapezist got threatened by a guy trying to hit her with an iron bar through his car window while she was cycling up cambridge heath rd the other day. must be cameras *everywhere* but obv the police aren't interested as she wasn't hurt or killed. not even a crime ref number. it really sounds like it might be worth chasing the insurance co - and apart from anything else, this fucker is going to keep driving like that if no one stops him, and who says the people in the next car he broadsides will be so lucky?
Emsk wasn't able to make it along with her nummy pancakes she told me that she was cooking in a txt I got from her
omg they were SO GOOD (ARE so good, there are lots in the fridge if anyone wants to pop round). they are these - http://www.astray.com/recipes/?show=Parsnip-potato%20pancakes
Larrikin Love. Were they good, Emsk?
larrikin love were actually a lot of fun. it was a proper Kids' Gig, y'know, everyone chucks their beer in the air when the band come on (we were safe up on the first balcony, phew), they crowdsurf at the mere sight of an electric guitar, the band come on in cheesy outfits for their last encore. but yeah, i liked them. i liked how they started out like a gypsy band then turned into a samba band at the end. i like that they have a violin and a cello but use them to make this raggedy noise, and i like their stage props: two goats, a hawk and a shark. tiny dancers, on the other hand, who were supporting, were appalling.
