Last Friday I turned fifty.

The previous night, I had attended Thursday Night Curry, starting in the Fork & Brewer with adrexia, Joel, Jacob, & Martin. seraphs_folly joined us at Dawaat, along with others regular TNC-ers.

I'd taken my birth day off of work, after seraphs_folly expressed surprise that I hadn't already arranged to. I had intended just to go to work as normal and ( Read more... )

Last night I went and purchased high quality cotton boxers from a local  manufacturer (Yes it's a horrible web-site, it seems the owner agrees). It's been a long search to find anything that matched the ones I bought in India four years ago, but now I have, and they're also local, so I get to feel good about supporting local industry as well.  They ( Read more... )

Had to think of you this evening while listening to U2's Original of the Species on the train :And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
And I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you're not

Well, almost. seraphs_folly could have not had the sniffles, and then it would have been nicer for her. Still 'twas a nice two days and three nights. My lady arrived late Friday, and we went straight home. In the morning we met up with jarratt_gray & evie_fae for brunch, then went home and prepped for tyellas' Mad Scientist party, filling it the remaining hour or so with playing with ( Read more... )

It's Wednesday morning afternoon. Friday evening I shall be seeing seraphs_folly again, first time in almost two months. Looking forward to it. With this Vodafone Best Friends thing, I get to talk to her almost every night for as long as we feel like, so I don't feel like we are apart, but physicality and proximity, obviously, add something that electronic ( Read more... )

So this morning the Oracle served up Pat Banatar's We BelongWe belong to the light, we belong to the thunder
We belong to the sound of the words we've both fallen under
Whatever we deny or embrace, for worse or for better
We belong, we belong, we belong together
Can't dispute that. This was followed by GnR's Patience, The Scorpion's Winds of Change ( Read more... )

The last four days have been one long wonderfully decadent pastciche of snuggles, sleep, food, and anime, primarily Death Note

seraphs_folly last night gave me an antique gold ring with a collared wolf relief on it. I feel sorta like a girly girl with an engagment ring. Squee! Pictures will follow, as will more words. Happy! :)

Well, it turns out the bed wasn't really for sale, it was one of those emails you forward round people at work, so I' afraid I won't be buying a four-penis bed unless I can source one from elsewhere ( Read more... )

And my mobile seem to be one of them.

This is the sequence of tracks it served to me on my trip into work this morning :

1. Morningwood - Nth Degree - The classic poly love song
2. NiN - Closer - the classic industrial love lust song
3. Live - Dolphin's Cry - The remarkably good Christian love song
4. Hoobastank - The Reason - A basic rock love song
5. ( Read more... )
