elucrehAll I've typed about lately is angst. Well, and TC. ^_^
But I meant to update on this stuff, I swear:
Wednesday night we went to an Indian restaraunt, and I actually enjoyed the food (this is bizarre, I never like anything with flavor). We then spent an hour measuring our heights and working out whether we were anywhere near the Grecian mathematical principle the Golden Mean. Then we watched Indiana Jones and tried to wax our legs with a Middle Eastern wax method. It didn't work--we teased Amelia it was because she didn't know what she was doing, even though she's been doing it for years--but I think really it was because we didn't have time to let the stuff cool enough to work. However, I would just like to stop and rejoice in the fact that I have a group of close friends who will spend an evening chasing sunset gaps in the houses on the hill, calculating Greek aesthetics, and playing with melted sugar.
I love my Aunt Jill. Have I said that? She is just the most amazing person. My uncles have fabulous taste in wives. (Of course, that may be because their mother, my grandmother, is fabulous in the same way. Except that on my dad's side they also had excellent taste, and it doesn't apply to them.)
Jess came to my house Saturday and we did nothing. It was great fun. We read I'm With Stupid, each of us taking a part. I love that book, have I mentioned that?
Also she leant me Good Omens, and I will say that I think that it clearly shows that even Terry Pratchett had to mature his talent before it was as amazing as it currently it is.
Question: trying to get an image as my background in my LJ. Not repeated, but just stretched out. How do I do this? MY LJ EXPERTS, HELP ME! HELP ME PLEASE!
