What I did At the Weekend (since it's better than working ;p).

Friday evening was a good one, started off with a lovely quiet hack on Ziggy as the sun was going down, tho it was bloody cold. Back home got bottle of fizz in anticipation of Hofftasticness. And Wow. I won't go into details, cos I've done that already, but that was an hilariously bad film. Wouldn't have missed it for anything!

Saturday, off down home to do more clearing, resulting in finds of more Childhood Treasures, a box of old photos and the little brothers P7 story book, which caused great hilarity. My personal favourite was the Picnic story which started "We had a lovely day at the picnic. And then the sharks came." Strange child.
Also found an old watch of Dad's that I'd appropriated when at school and wore for a few years til I got bought one for my... 18th? birthday. It still works too ;) Actually I wonder where the 18th b'day watch is. Hmm.

Sat evening was Party at Stables, which I wasn't too keen on going to, because while I chat to these people most evenings, I don't really *know* them, and the one girl I do hang out with most there wasn't staying, despite me trying to convince her to stay so I'd have someone to talk to.
Of course after some cider and a few glasses of the sparkling wine that was going round, it was a different story and I was happily rambling away at anyone and everyone. The kareoke machine broke quite a bit of ice too. Ended up dancing and singing (tho avoided the microphones, for the good of all there) and rambling til about 5am, with a brief break at about 3 (apparently) to go see teh horse. I'm sure she appreciated it... More than

mivvvv seems to have appreciated his drunken phone call at any rate ;p

Sunday was a Day Of Pain. Mixing drinks is a bad bad thing. So very ill. Did manage to get to stables by about 3.30, which was quite good going I thought, then back home to collapse with junk food and another v. bad movie, Starship Troopers 2. Alas this one wasn't even entertainingly bad, it was just crap. I don't think I even bothered watching the end of it.
Finally went to bed, tho not to sleep unfortunately, resulting in a somewhat dazed and cranky Helen today.
Still that's not so different from any other monday anyway ;p

All in all, a good weekend, and the last Unplanned one for a while too.

The horror =(

PS You forgot to mention youre organising karaoke

I thought you were ;p I can't do EVERYTHING you know!

You can't let everyone down now you've offered. I'm sure you'll think of something

I'm fucking not doing any karaoke!

oh =( Hellison said you'd want to, that was the whole point

she did fucking not.

*stares in hellison's general direction*

MORRISSEY!

Of course I didn't, ignore the LIES of the welsh. You know what they're like for the singing!

dun a nice draring for you now

Am v jealous of your sparkling social life.

I slobbed round the house, slept and knitted. Felt poorly as well, though I don't know how much of that is being under the weather and how much is dreading this week.

Am currently trying to think of excuses why I shouldn't go to my nan's funeral.

Heh, given that my social life mostly revolves around horses and t'internet (eg friday night was spent watching the film with people online), I wouldn't be too jealous!

Would your family understand if you didn't go? They can be horrible horrible things, but also, having your family about can help a lot. Could you go see them but skip the actual funeral bit?

The horrible thing is it's my family I don't want to see.

The amount of politics that's happened this week is horrible.

If the one sister who still talks to me (and who I am close to, to be fair) hadn't asked me to go, I would have had no problem at all in missing it.

ARGLE ARGLE ARGLE
*empathy*

Thank you!

You ok today?

NO! I FUCKING WELL AM NOT! I AM IN A FOULER! RARR
(for entertainment, see me get cross on my LJ AND in the Ladies Loos)
I WANT TO PUNCH SOMEONE ON THE SNOOT!\

You should go punch a pig in the face. They've got it coming.

OINK OINK SQQEEEEEEEEEEeeEEEE

(I don't actually advocate the punching of pigs, aka "Porcine Face Boxing")

ooh what has mivv DONE to you!
ooerr!

Which thread on LL? I haven't been paying attention :(

(I don't think I'm allowed say? just have a scan through)

Found it.

Mwahahaha

(that's hysteria rather then it being funny)

HURR HURR HURR.
(better be discreet, though)

Meh. I'm having one of those days where I'm tempted to put on an animal hat and blow up the town ;-)

ar ar ar ar

PS a week's worth of artpads coming

Looking forward... you kept promising

*waggle*

*woggle*

"and the last Unplanned one for a while too."
How come?

Next weekend babysitting for karen, weekend after party for paddy's day, probably followed by more house clearing, weekend after that, bristol!

Then... i think that's it. For now.

Bristol? Coo, any occasion?

Girls Day Out, for me birthday! Hurrah!

what exactly is the paddy's day Plan? i need to tell wee sister and see if she wishes to attend (if so, there will be additional Blonde Friends of wee sister in attendance too - would this be allowed?)

yrs in anticipation

Plan is!

1. Come to my house
2. Get drunk
3. Profit

Blonde friends also welcome, the more the merrier!

yes, but what TIME at, woman!

Um. I dunno! You think I planned that far ahead?

Friday evening. sometime. 7/8ish? Whenever ;p

that's all i required to know! (you might have been starting in the afternoon, after all)

Well i did think about that. But then I realised I don't really have any other time between now and then to actually make the house in any way presentable or fit for visiting (ie. clearing some space so people can acutally SIT on the sofa, likewise floor). So I figured a slightly later start might be better ;p
