I keep meaning to post Stuff - usual ramblings about eg charlie and teh chocolate factory (mostly loved it, except the ending), Electric Picnic (veering from whee to omg why am i going back to whee) and so on, but then I look at the news again, or other lj reports and the words just leave me.
Even if I get away from Katrina and the horrors in America, there is the chaos and horror in Iraq, people being shot or murdering their babies in UK and we're even doing our own little bit here with rioting and chucking petrol bombs into childrens' bedrooms.
Some people have been mentioning the quote about us being only 3 days away from savagery. I'm not sure we're not much closer than that.
But then what good does staring at bbc news with a Woe Face do?
So I shall go to EP and make the most of the sights, sounds and time with good friends. After all, as the mother is fond of saying, you never know the hour. When its done, I'll tally up what I've spent on fun and frolics and donate as much again as currently I can't think of any other way to help.
In the meantime, I'm going back to my new Happy Place, Neil and the kitten (oh, those hands...)
As it says up there at the top, enjoy yourself, it's later than you think ;)
