Musings on a world I am no longer sure about

Yo, mofo.

Been having a bit of an 80s film revival lately, partly due to the fact I bought Ferris Bueller’s day off $months ago and TJ really really liked it. So this time around I bought Ghostbusters (which we watched last night) and Police Academy. Fun fun fun. Although disturbing, finding Steve Guttenberg cute (again) I’m being pretty lax logging of late, but nothing *that* interesting is happening in my life, I guess... So. Since Fell City Girl, I’ve had my review of the gig published in Londonist (tho RobG has more reviews than me now. Bah), I’ve been found not guilty of having an intent to evade my fare on the DLR, I’ve watched lots of fireworks, I’ve had Miles down for the weekend for snuggles and fun photographing said fireworks. I’ve reinstalled Windows, having got my second drive. I now have a mirrored RAID1 array keeping all my data fluffy and lovely. I’ve bought some screws from the gorgeously fabulous “Clerkenwell Screws” shop that fit my laptop so it’s not falling apart. I’ve received a new power supply for it too, it’s also lovely. Also booked holiday in December. Am going to Edinburgh from 8-12th December...CelticLo’s off somewhere and leaving me his flat keys so I’m going to have a budget holiday and wander around Edin and stuff. Might also go visit Glasgow too, as I have friends there. Erm. That’s about it really. Took Friday off work to prepare my court case. So spent the morning pottering about and writing things, zoomed off to the RCJ to see a lawyer and went through it all, zoomed back home. Started watching Good Morning Vietnam whilst eating steak and chips, then headed out to meet Miles. I was stupendously late. Came back via Somerfields and alcohol and pizza. I was glared at until I indulged in a couple of glasses of red wine (and by that I mean two of them). Bed and snuggles. Saturday and we were invited to go see some bloke Lloyd knows singing in Foyles bookstore. Pretentious much? Didn’t stay long and instead went to Mr Topper to get Miles shaved. Always a good thing. Was somewhat surprised to see a young man under all that hair : P Went shoeshopping, dragged Lloyd into Shoe Express and broke him somewhat. Attempted to hug him better but he was having none of it. Found Sunin and RoB and then retrieved Sunin’s car from the MOST EXPENSIVE CAR PARK IN THE UNIVERSE and drove to Old Street to go to Expectations for some filth shopping. Bumped into James down there - much to our surprise - he apparently works there one day a week. Chatted a bit and caught up some. Much hugs. Miles got to meet him too, I’d not realised they’d not met before. Miles wanted to take him home but I suggested that his boss might not be too happy about it... Toodled back home and deminged and stuff ready for our amazing trip to see the Blackheath Fireworks - Miles took his tripod as well as his camera, something I wish I’d have done, as I just took the camera. Headed off at 6:15. Bought KFC en route. Jane broke a bit, so I reset her, but unbeknownst to me I also reset our destination. So having made it as far as Surrey Quays ourselves she suddenly sprang into life and proceeded to direct us back home. After getting out of the Blackwall Tunnel the wrong side of the river we decided that perhaps we should check our destination and then realised our mistake and reset her. So we arrived in time for fireworks, but not in time to find other freaks, which was a shame. Fireworks were excellent, although there was nothing particularly outstanding or stunning about them, just big bright bangs. Toyed with the idea of buying a “lightsaber” but didn’t. Took many many pretty pictures. Ate cold KFC. Lamented the fact we’d just spent an hour an a half in the car travelling 4 miles or so. Headed home via Tesco for alcohol and food. Watched Jay and Silent Bob and<
