When I was in my last year of junior school, i.e. aged 11 or 12 or so, I had the lead role in a school play. Well, to be precise, in the small, serious mini-play which served as the opener to the school's production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, in which I was a member of the chorus. Possibly the lead member of the chorus, come ( Read more... )

I've been thinking we haven't had one of those cannot-meet-for-lunch-as-my-calendar-gaps-don't-match-your-calendar-gaps conversations in a while.

We really must meet for lunch!

Ah, I see I am currently logged in as Torquetum. Heh.

Goodness, I had no idea you were doing the Torquetum thing, that's impressive and slightly terrifying.

I could conceivably do lunch on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday next week?

:) I have very quiet third period tuts, where I bring work along and the students ask very occasional questions. I'm trying to be good and always take a paper to read. Then after a few such sessions I can summarise it and blog it.

I could do Monday or Wednesday. How about Wednesday?

Wednesday is good! 12ish? do you want to wander past my office when you're free?

I acquired a part in Miller's Crucible by channelling my beloved grandmother and adding a quaver, except I was utterly overwhelmed by the attention of my cast mates and eventual audience and could never manage it again. To the deep disgust and distress of my director. She was a dragon lady extraordinaire, and directed both the fall play and the spring musical with an iron fist in an iron glove. Not quite the howling ogre you had to live through - but formidable nonetheless.

pleased to see you writing, hope your winter is going well

LTNW Sorry to hear you've been 'stuck'. All the best with your further blogging, and emerging from it all.

When my laptop was stolen last month and it was time to redo bookmarks, I realized that yours is one of the few friend blogs I check regularly these days. So you have place of honour in my "regularly read friend blogs list" right now :-)
Besides that, I've been thinking of you a great deal recently, missing your blog posts and wondering what had swallowed you up. I'm awfully glad to see another post. Please meep whenever you can.
