And I've just gotten back from my parents' again. It was Jack's birthday. We went bowling yesterday, and had a big takeaway/cheeseburgery meal.

But what I mostly did over the wekend was lug books about. They're doing a production of His Dark Materials as a play at the West Yorkshire Playhouse in May, and I remembered buying the trilogy once, years ago, in a couple of 3 for 2 Waterstones deals, but I couldn't find them in my flat or on the bookshelf at my parents'. Or the first one, which I read. Mum said there were some in the drawers in the little bedroom, and indeed there were, but not those ones. I remembered that I used to have some in a drawer under my bed though, so I checked there. And there were. It was full. Full of books. Imagine a drawer in a chest of drawers, but bigger. Of books. Books I'd forgotten I had. Books I'd been thinking about recently and wondering where they were. So I went through them, and brought a load back. I just need to find a place to put them. I might need to wait for a furniture store to go bankrupt and get a new bookcase.

Dancing on Ice has the exact same rules as Strictly Come Dancing. I didn't know that. Jo from Emmerdale is going to skate, but not till next week.

Whenever I go to my parents' for the weekend I tend to watch NCIS when my dad has it on. After hating it for a good few months, I've decided that I love the computer expert junior agent and the female Mossad liaison agent. Which is annoying, because I still hate the two main men, and the way they write the woman who runs the agency. Hmm.
