Day: August 7, 2004

Lazing around today. Chatted a bit with petkatyyazzick and montreality; and Tia called from Bern this morning to wish me a happy birthday. It's always interesting to talk to her – with her accent, you'd swear she was british :) She's having an interesting weekend at a Busker festival there, among bird-flipping leather-kilted scotsmen, Mongolian singers and Italian saxophonists. It was fun talking to her, as I do miss talking to her on a regular basis.

montreality gave me a really sweet gift today – she paid for a 6-month full user account on LJ. Let the icon madness begin :D

I spent a good part of the morning watching MASH episodes on TV with cat sleeping right next to me. He was all quiet and content, purring away. How cute, thinks I.

Then he woke up and bit me on the ass.

Yes, he did.

Had sushi goodness with ashre79 and emjayne today. Lots of laughs (oh, and MJ, you still need to send me the Ass Shot Gallery, and sorry again for the antihistamines). Wandered around in Chapters and Metro Video after lunch, where we both did a bit of retail therapy. Went to Hurleys for a pint and a chat while we waited for eniran to get back from Houston.

I'm back home, the ladies are gone, and I'm alone with Boris and the 6th season of MASH on DVD. If I didn't have the gas pains from hell, this would be a good night. I hate my friggin GI track.
