Oh, the last week has been frenetically up and down. November is such a bipolar month. Dissolving into tears at the slightest thing one minute and then upupup!! the next. Saw Nana on Wednesday - she's looking terribly frail, like if you touched her she might snap, all bones and paper-thin skin on a body that used to be snuggly and buxom and full of

That bought(or is it brought? Grammar never has been my strong point) back memories of my Grandad and Granny there. It was always the other way round health way. Hope everything goes on the up. x x

I've never really done this before - I suppose I'm lucky I've had all my grandparents for so long. I'm sorry about your grandad, though. And thanks. You're a sweetheart. xx

and I'm trying to remember who I shared with at Patrick's party - was that you, Chris?

Started off as Anna and I, then various things happened so I wasn't there anymore, I'm not sure who joined you in there after that... I slept on the hall floor wearing very little and hugging the radiator, silly really concidering it was my house, but there you go...
lots of love
Patrick

I love Some Like It Hot. I'm reading a (kind of) biography of Marilyn Monroe right now and it's reminded me how great that film is. All About Eve as well. I'm so addicted to old 'glamourous hollywood' films. Whose Afraid Of Virginia Woolf? and Whatever Happened To Baby Jane are the best.

I hope your Nan is ok :( It scares me so much that my Nan and Grandad are getting older. She's 63 already. In perfectly good health, but it's scary none the less. We're so close, which makes it a million times worse.

Some Like It Hot also has the best ending of any film ever. I saw a documentary on her once, all about how terrible she was to work with, unpredictable and all of it but when it worked it was genius. I haven't seen any of those other films - uncultured, I know. Who's your favourite silver screen actress?

I'm sure your Nan and Grandad will be full of life for a good while yet. I found that I only started really being able to talk to them after she became ill - it softened my grandad as well, looking after her. He used to be so intimidating. Ironic - but inevitable, I suppose. Make the most of her now.

Nah. Wasn't me at Patrick's party. Just the other time.

At Patrick's party I stayed up all night smoking hash and drinking chartruese and being all emotional and nearly crying at Seirian.

she was probably doing exactly the same at you...
lots of love

From my recollections it was more of an general feeling of "Oh my god... he keeps looking like he is going to try and kiss me... please dont. help me someone!!!" coming from her....

[bohofaery]

Didn't we finish the chartreuse before I passed out? I swear I remember pouring the last bit into a tumbler and draining it. One of my few memories. That and dancing to Britney in the kitchen. God.

I feel exactly the same, all november long... I am also in agreement over some like it hot :D

Hopefully it should lift in a couple of weeks. November winds down and down, and then sometime between Christmas and New Year you reach the sort of eye of the storm, and everything's beautiful and still. Frost is incredibly calming.
