An Update Of Substance But Little Style

[serinde]

I'm sort of feeling anti-"fleshy things with their mouth noises" at the moment (I guess I have for awhile, at that; but it's marked tonight) so this will consist chiefly of unadorned information.

1. Yes, I signed on Apartment #12. I will, barring extreme WTFery, be moving the first weekend in April. Various, but mostly high, levels of psycho-emotional ulaeulaeulaeulae are being generated from these small, bare facts.

2. I was in London this past weekend, as some knew, some intuited, and some had no idea on. I went to sbp's birthday party, which was groovy; missed simonb's birthday party, which I deeply regret; went down t'pub with pir, which was most pleasant; and missed connections with reddragdiva, which I also deeply regret. I also got mired in a bog, discovered an 18th c. house in Hampstead Heath, and continued my trend of walking into pubs frozen to the core (and then got stared at like I had three heads when I asked for tea with whisky--did not you people invent this shit?). Ostensibly the purpose of this adventure was to see a number of the members of Hawkwind recreate the legendary 1972 Space Ritual tour, which is literally a once-in-a-lifetime chance, but Nik Turner fucked up his back using a chainsaw last week (!?!?) and so it's postponed til June. Because of the nature of the exceedingly cheap ticket I got, trying to change my travel time or even cashing it in for a credit would have been a giant lose, so I just bloody well went, and why not? Also, I really like Camden. And I feel slightly lame for not heading down to Brixton on Sat. night to see Alabama 3's all-night dance party: on the one hand, yes I'd been up for nigh 40 hours at that point, but on the other, when would I have a chance to do that again either?. Anyways. Returned last night, am still awfully flat.

3. I need to re-dye the teal in my hair but I just don't have the energy or will. I find this mildly distressing, but hope and trust that a few days' sleep will set me up right.

Congrats on the apt. Sounds like a great trip to London. I've never gone just for the weekend, but I've heard if you just stay up the whole time, the time difference all works out in the end :).

Oooh, I haven't seen the teal in your hair, it sounds fabu!

Let us know if you need help moving.

I know the wibble of which you speak. My thoughts are very much with you.

Hmmm...big stressy life-changing residence thing combined with long plane rides and fun weekend in a radically different time zone.

Yeah, just give it a few days. You'll be back to yourself in no time.

Yeah, what Briony said.

Also, was there teal in your hair the last time I saw you? I was dark. It was drunk. Did I miss it? More please!

Please let me know if you need moving help. Maybe it will be cheaper to consolidate things to one location on the NJ end before the movers come?

Hooray! New place!

Easter is 2nd weekend in April - we'll be down (and probably free on Saturday) if you want stuff transported from $SOME_PLACE to $OTHER_PLACE.
