taimatsu | Weekend report

Here I am, in a fairly tidy living-room, on a raggedy but comfortably arranged sofa, with a laptop and the dregs of a pizza - I feel good.

I have had a lovely weekend in the company of

ixwin,

vectorious,

kmazzy and, of course, the most marvellous

borusa. We spent Saturday evening baking cheese biscuits, banana bread and chocolate cake, and Sunday afternoon eating them; in between we went to a funfair, a convenience store, a hill, and Wrest Park. See

borusa for photos of the latter. It was all excellent fun and I feel very relaxed and happy.

Or, I would, if my stomach had not begun to react badly to the pizza. Unladylike expletives go here.

I have become strangely restrained in my commenting. I used to just bung things down and not really think about them, but this evening I keep typing things and then backspacing emphatically and not saying them at all. It's a bit odd. Probably good overall, though.

My father has unexpectedly donated me a Significant Sum; he has also gone away on holiday so I may have trouble thanking him for it in a timely fashion. Will try tomorrow.
