One of my coworkers just THREW SOMETHING AT ME!


But it was a KitKat, so all is well.




It's increasingly difficult to keep my mind in the game, here. Not that it's much of a game, I'm just longing to be elsewhere. O, to be in England! My Dad sent me a page of links to extremely inexpensive deals, and I'm tempted. I found a deal yesterday that's the exact dates I want to travel, though it's more than I want to spend. I'm biding my time as yet, though. We'll see what shows up. I find the thought of returning to England vaguely terrifying, but I'm not sure why. Am I afraid it's all changed beyond recognition? Am I afraid I just won't have as much fun? No matter. I won't know if I don't go. Feet First at Camden Palace is gone, which grieves me, but then, it also means I don't neccessarily have to be in London on a Tuesday night, should Bath or Stirling becon.

I want to touch the hills, I want to get dirt under my nails, I want to drown in language. I want to struggle with my own accent-- yes or no, and how do I resist, anyway? I want to eat in a booth high up on the wall at King's Road Jam-- which IS still there, it's just called Buona Sera at the Jam now. I want to see Bath again. And Jane Austen's house. I want to shop on Regent Street, and Oxford Street. And Portobello Road. And Kensington Market. And Marks and Spencer. I want to walk in Stratford.

I wantIwantIwant. Sigh.

You want to stand in the middle of home but you're too far from it and it's too expensive.
I feel for ya chica.

C'mon, admit it, you ARE GOING!! And you'll love it! I want to go back to Bath as well - it was one of the top three most spectacular sites in in England, as far as I'm concerned, along with Kenilworth Castle, and the left-in-place ruins of Coventry Cathedral. (An ex-lover of mine worked at the cathedral for two years, and I know the M40 to Coventry and Stratford well.) Hey, can you drive a manual yet, and are you okay driving on the wrong side of the road? ;-)

Hey, um, what do you think about moving there, you know, just for a year or so? Just a thought... :)
