For the last week I was in New York City, with some of my very favourite humans. I had a brilliant time and I... got to see Hamilton!

And not just any Hamilton. We booked tickets months and months and months ago, and yet somehow the date we picked ended up being the date of the once-in-a-lifetime, never-to-be-repeated FULL CAST REUNION. We got ( Read more... )

I got quite a bit more reading done this month than I expected to: I didn't get to go on a trip I was really, really looking forward to, and so I kind of drowned my sorrows in books a little...

( Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life, Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World, Scott Pilgrim And The Infinite Sadness, Scott Pilgrim Gets It Together, Scott Pilgrim Vs. The Universe - all by Bryan Lee O'Malley )

OK, so I just bought a ticket. This ticket is for a plane, which will take me to visit aneli8, FOR GREAT YAY. However, I was just reaidng through the ticket details to make sure everything was all right and I discovered something. It made me laugh, and then it made me boggle, and then it made me go O_O because I had reached the level where only emoticons ( Read more... )

I just randomly feel like commemroating the fact that I got to welcome in the New Year (which is a completely random and arbitary date, but who cares) with my mrsronweasley and aneli8, two of the best people I know of - in a drag bar, with Russian techno and strange pop versions of Bohemiam Rhapsody that prove everything really does turn into Queen playing and a DJ ( Read more... )

It's official! I have found the BEST QUIZ IN THE WORLD EVER! No, really: it's even better, in my opinion, than the Monty Python quiz. It is, in fact, an EDWARD GOREY QUIZ. A Gorey quiz! GOREY QUIZ!!

( hee hee, I'm Gorey porn! )

I have a sore throat, swolen glands and a temperature. Dammit. I am not going to get ill! I won't, I say! However, this post was actually meant to be about the Edinburgh Festival, so I shall move on.
