There and back again...

[boglin]

Still working on sorting the photos out, but I've made really cool Maes Howe dragon button for 'forward/back'- hurrah!

I appear to have eleventy billion photos, and deciding which to put up and writing a commentary to go with them is proving a Rather Big Thing.

Birmingham, gentle reader, is nowhere near as nice a place as Orkney, and I'm not altogether pleased to be back. It's great to see the cats again, particularly My Boy, but this city holds very little joy for me these days.

It's always a bit of an anti-climax to come home, which was shame seeing as it was lupercal's birthday on Tuesday. We did very little other than order pizza, lacking the inclination to do anything else, and then he had an NWO writy writy meeting to go to.

Am considering whether after finishing the photos, my next project should be to fashion a vest out of a disused monitor and Tippex 'NWO Games Discussion Forum' on the front of it, to see if I get any more attention that way. I do feel rather like a LARP widow this summer, and sooner or later need to face the fact that I really should have some interests of my own.

lupercal's off to see what presents his parents have got him today - a trip which I cunningly got out of due to having a riding lesson - possibly my last for a while, as the new term looms along with a new - and yet undecided - timetable.

I really, *really* don't want to go back to work.

Heya, you got plans tomorrow night?

[boglin.livejournal.com]

Nothing definite that I'm aware of.

Fancy a night in? Films, wine, summat like that? Yours or mine?

Here has still got bits of Orkney over it. We could bring some wine over to you, about 8? Will give you a call if I don't hear back via LJ.

I like that idea much better than hoodies, because it made me laugh out loud. He may, by muscle memory alone, attempt to type something on your knees if you are sitting down though. This may or may not be a bad thing.

Glad you enjoyed the time away, I wait for my own escape with slumped shoulders. I fully understand the langour of return and the photocopied streets of the hometown. I don't even want to talk about work at the moment.

Saw this (http://www.livejournal.com/users/smokingboot/169061.html?#cutid1) and thought of you. If you want them, shout quickly cos I think ephraim's going to be visiting smokingboot tomorrow and could probably transport them back. Hope he doesn't mind me suggesting this!

Oooh no! I don't do gerbils!

Never mind then

Wow! Have I found an animal you don't like!
*falls over in shock*

LOL - not so much don't like gerbils as not really have much of an interest in them. Bit like hamsters. Not really any room, suitable cages etc though. I am considering not getting any more rats when this batch go though, too.
