  1. @AuntieNubbins ...aw, bless you, you've given an old woman a big smile on a cold evening. Happy New Year to you too!
  2. @AuntieNubbins ...thanks for this, auntie. Hope you stick around on this account during the A&J drought... and maybe see you at BUG in 2010.
  3. Today's art square: dirty-looking golden yellow cloud-y marble-y thingummybob. #100days (day 31)
  4. Oops. I seem to have got sucked in to watching a re-run of '100 greatest musicals' with mum. I can't escape.
  5. Thai curry now bubbling away nicely. It's always an epic undertaking but it'll keep me fed for days on end so I can get on with other stuff.
  6. @wickwox ...thanks, chuck. It's a good exercise to do on this day tho, and a nice window into people's lives, so thanks for passing it on.
  7. That last post was a distillation of the last decade of my life #2000-2009. Not much scope for jollying up. I'm doing OK at the moment tho.
  8. Got PhD. Found Unitarian community. Left academia. Fell in love. 5 years together. Beloved died, suddenly (08). Lost soul. Starting again.
  9. @wickwox ...wow! That sounds like a pretty good decade to me. Will try to do my own later... tho it could end up sounding a bit depressing!
  10. There's more on today's to-dos than I remembered. Must start preparing a huge Thai curry and send a rallying email ahead of Saturday's walk.
  11. Awake, just, and about to catch up on some bits and bobs I recorded over the festive season (starting with that Alan Bennett interview).
  12. Today's art square: dark & mid brown chevrons and diamonds on light brown paper. Turned out quite well after all. #100days (day 30)
  13. Just realised that the brush pen I am using was made in Peru. That seems unusual.
  14. @AuntieNubbins I'll keep them warm for you in the meantime...
  15. Haven't yet got round to doing any arty activity so suspect it'll be another slapdash square tonight. Will do some proper painting on NYE.
  16. New to me today: 'We meet at meals three times a day, and give each other a new taste of that old musty cheese that we are.' (Thoreau)
  17. Quite a satisfying day in the end - surprised myself by getting stuck in to a big sort-out of my room - still lots to do but it's a start.
  18. @wickwox ....swoon! That sounds enticing, doesn't it? Isn't it tantalising to hear everyone else getting worked up!? Solidarity, sister...
  19. Desperate to get a look at Adam Buxton's TV appearance!!! Sadly can't get to a TV tonight... glad so many are singing his praises tho.
  20. OK. I'm going for 'Walden'. I always hear something new in that.
