Various trips, for some reason

[girlofprey]

La. I took my newfound day off work yesterday, to get stuff done before going away again this weekend. It was oddly liberating, even if I did mostly spend it doing chores. Next week I plan to go see a movie. There's quite a bit on at the moment, actually. I also managed to see my estate agents about the wasps nest outside again. Not that I imagine it will do any good. And I got my sister's birthday present. Hurrah!

I went to London last weekend, which was great. Cee had doughnuts. We went to see Elling, which I quite enjoyed, although yes, it probably was a bit too chaotic and directionless in the second half. John Simm was good though. We went to St Pauls on Sunday, which is very big and gold on the inside. We sat in on the Eucharist, and heard quite a lovely sermon by a priest from South Africa, who talked about how America should apologise to Iraq, and how the Church declared apartheid a heresy, and previous priests at St Pauls refused to hold the post-Falklands service as a victory celebration, as a "certain prime minister" wanted them to. It turns out the Church is sometimes shiny. I couldn't follow any of the hymns, though. Then we got lost, and ended up on London Bridge. It was quite good. Although over the weekend I attempted to show Cee the bits of Dodgeball where Jason Bateman and Lucas Buck are dodgeball commentators together and she insisted on watching the whole thing, AND IF SHE TELLS YOU ANY DIFFERENT SHE IS A FILTHY LIAR.

Tomorrow I'm going to my parents for my sister's birthday. Thought about taking my day off tomorrow for travelling, but I would still have had stuff to do, so I didn't, so I'll be going straight from work. There's new Suburban Shootout on tonight, though! Only three episodes this series, for some reason, but still. And whatho sent me Nightingales today. Thank you! I will watch it, probably next week. Oh, and there was a postcard with a failed icon in place of a stamp! I fully believe stamps were the original icons. Fully. I have to finish Arrested Development Series 2 before a new series though.

OH GOD, BUSTER. OH GOD.

Oh, glad to hear it arrived safely. Don't feel in any sense obliged to watch it or anything along those lines. Sending stuff feels awfully pro-active.

Don't poke the wasps' nest with a stick. That's all I know about wasps' nests.

I don't have a stick long enough. THE WASPS ARE STILL THERE. Why won't they fix it?

I want to watch it! I totally will. I have a plan to do so. DON'T GO THINKING I WON'T.

I think with Suburban Shootout they're running them as hour long episodes, so we get 3 hour long episodes rather than 6 half hour ones.

Ah yes, I noticed this on Thursday night. I can't tell whether it's a better format or not. Still, squee Suburban Shootout!
