Good, good night. Went to Old Skool Goth Night. Got drunk. Grabbed my friend James's ass a few times. Made out with my friend Michael who I've known (and lusted after) since before I got married to that miserable fuckhead. I feel like I'm 22 again. Woo!
That does sound like a good night! What did you wear?
t predictable tag never closes
We went to Plei's. I got to play with Tickybox! Oh, and Paul created an Addams Family theme ringtone for my shiny new phone, because I AM that much of a cliché, thankyouverymuch.
I should add that my friend James asked me to grab his ass. I wouldnt' have done it otherwise.
I wore very boring clothes, I'm afraid. Lacy V-neck back-tie shirt and cargo pants.
I see drunkie people, and it's faaabulous! Yay for permitted ass-grabbing, Jen! And for home-walkage, Hil!
You otter-loving people, run, don't walk to the library or the used bookstore, more like, and track down Ring of Bright Water. "What-what-what-what?" Almost as good is the movie of the same name starring that Bill Somebody who was also in Born Free. Travers. Charming movie. Charming-er book.
The Drambuie is all gone, and I am sad. and bed-seeking. G'night.
Skipped 400 posts, because playing catchup doesn't seem to work well.
Go Team Me! Last night my peeps (heh) - or at least most of the British Contingent, plus one token American - went to the Mena House to join the Indian Community Association of Egypt for their
fabulous
Diwali celebration. In the Ballroom. Words cannot do justice to the gold-encrusted oriental opulence of the Ballroom, and this was an occasion upon which it simply served as an appropriate backdrop to the flurry of dazzling saris and mirror-spangled scarves and candles and fairy lights. Live music from Indian pop singers. Dancing. Kids. Divine food (mostly vegetarian). Inexpensive alcohol.
AND a cute guy (whose cuteness I had earlier observed appreciatively) came over from a table opposite ours to tell me that he and his friends had been talking about me, and that I looked fabulous.
I harboured a small suspicion that they were taking the piss, but decided to go with the "yay, compliment" interpretation.
Today we're off to the second hand market near the Nile Hilton, in search of Winter clothes - for it is becoming comparatively chilly. By local standards. (I bought a duvet, and am sometimes wearing proper shoes rather than sandal-types.) Earlier today I walked to the shops, and somebody in an expensive car wolf whistled as they went past.
Am feeling fabulous. Go team me. (Appear to have lost at least 4lb this week, also.)

Oooh. That sounds amazing.
Timelies! It's day 5 of the cold watch around here. Joe and I both still feel yucky. I don't think our drive to Charleston on Thursday (to pick up 1000 lbs of coffee beans) did us any favors. The house is a mess but no one around here cares.
stopping solids for a week cleared it up.
Thanks for the suggestion. Despite both nurses telling me there was no connection, this is what my mom and I were thinking. Of all of us, the Bean is handling being sick the best, but I'm holding off on ayn new solids until she feels better and this other problem clears up.
When I lived in Tulsa I got to see the plays Oklahoma and Dust on her Petticoats at the Tulsa Amphitheatre. That was so much fun.
I love musicals, even West Side Story.
Timelies. I'm being a slug.
Stephanie, I hope the cold clears up soon for everyone.
I didn't used to love musicals and I still need to see them live to really love them. Being married to DH#2 made a musical lover out of me. There is something about seeing the same shows hundreds of times to give a girl some appreciation. Now I sing showtunes to the kids. At least once a week I need to sing oh what a beautiful morning to get them up.
Some day I'll dig up a picture of DH#2 doing jumping splits in Annie Get Your Gun. He was such a cutie.
I have boxes of music and a piano. Some day I will learn to play and really drive them crazy.
Today I have science fair project to complete. Tomorrow I do main gate staffing (5 hours) for the Delray Beach Garlic Festival. If nothing else very yummy food.
Hi Deena! I say you deserve to be a slug for a bit.
