I went to a sort of school reunion in Northampton last weekend. I wasn't sure what L was doing or whether she'd have people round or the dog or something, so I booked a hotel room zomgz the extravagance. It was so cool to have a little room to myself in town with a shower and a big bed. Within ten minutes, I had covered every surface in the room with stuff and gone out to the shops. They have ace shoeshops in Northampton, due to it being a Traditional Local Thing. Bet Dr. Eleven will wear nice leather shoes.
The reunion wasn't for my school but the upper school after my middle school (while I went on to feel out of place in a posh school). Apart from L, I only knew about two people there but everyone was ok and I met some nice people from Macclesfield. Also the brother of my first ever crush was there (from when I was ten - people forget how young it starts in the head). He looked exactly like him, which was nice.
Also I saw 'Watchmen', which was too much exactly like the comic in places and not enough in others. I liked the cast mostly, but they messed up one of the key scenes and the soundtrack was SO DAMN CHEESY. Maybe the DVD version will balance out better.
I am behind with BSG again, mostly because I have heard dire things from my online friends and because they are not giving my pet character enough to do.
Oh, the teaching. It's better than typing but it ain't my vocation. Too many rules, man. I might go to London for the summer to teach foreign students, though. It'll be a nice break, if I can afford to keep up two rents.
