HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Still tired of coteries and bans. But hanging about anyway.

FINALLY!  Having a super duper yummy cup of coffee with the beans I got yesterday!

Where did you get the coffee?  Do tell. 

I had a perfect day yesterday.  I took the bus to the city centre and read my book on the bus.  Went clothes shopping, found EVERYTHING on sale and actually found pants that fit!  And a pair of shoes that are really comfortable and look nice!  I had lunch at my favourite place and sat and read while I ate.  DH met me later and we went to the starbucks for coffee that is our favourite people watching place. 

In the evening, we had home-made pizza, and watched The sound of music, singing along all the while.  A perfect day!

That sounds really nice, I need a day like that as well.

Got the coffee beans from Fresh & Wild.  I have also found the same ones online.  Fair Trade Dark Roast.  Yummmmy stuff! ;)

Went to Covent garden met up with a friend who gave me some cool goodies. Sat and watched a street performer with some hot choc and ben's cookies whilst enjoying a sunday afternoon relaxing and for a slight second I forgot that I had too many essays and a short span of time to sort them out...I should have added some whiskey to the hot choc so I could totally forget about them..next time ;D

But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

I've lost a bit of weight recently, and today i retrieved a big binbag from the back of the wardrobe, which was full of clothes that had become too tight for me.

I tried them on, and almost everything fit!!  Except for a couple of items which are now TOO BIG!!  ;D
I was doing the happy dance all over the place!!

4 pair of work trousers, 3 skirts, 1 pair of jeans, 2 tops, and a denim jacket!!   WOOOHOOOOO!!!  ;D  :D

When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.

Very cool!  I can't wait to say the same in a few months (I hope)

Mine is my Grandfathers 93rd Birthday yesterday.  He and my Grandmother are still around.  Hoping it's so for them to meet their first Great Grandson in September.

Spending Saturday at the seashore in Whitstable :)

Had a leisurely drive to and around Canterbury to pick up my friend's brand new car, then into Whitstable for a scrumptious Fish N Chips lunch, then a walk along the shore, watching everyone walking dogs of all shapes and sizes, having a pint at the pub, then heading home.

Nice to get out of the city, which I rarely do.
Hollywood, CA -> London, UK 2004
London, UK -> Long Beach, CA 2007

Best 3 1/2 years of my life!
