Take 1 massage; add hot water bottle and ibuprofen. Don't do much. Whine a lot. Then get strapped into a fab corset and get to Jilly's with excellent chums on a saturday night. Pain all gone!

That was a terrific weekend. I've been disappointed with Jilly's Rock Club every time except the very first that I went there; I was on fire that night, dancing for a doomed friend. Since then, Jilly's has been repeatedly rubbish with music I could fall asleep to and legions of hopeful hobbits trying to leap their way into my underwear. This seems to be a Friday night phenomenon. Saturday was better; my list of dancefloor stuff that hits me directly below the hips is growing to include a lot of Rammstein (Engel's the one for me right now) and my old favourites (More Human Than Human and Closer) were trotted out in tandem, just the way I like them. Generally it was a night when I felt great and felt that I looked great, which always helps.

Said friends stayed over, and much playing with kittens/creation of catflaps/cheerful gibbering occurred. Then they went home, and just as we thought we were too wiped out to be any fun at all, [profile] bytepilot, [personal profile] thalinoviel and [profile] itsjustaname turned up at the door, and great conversations lit us up all over again. Then there was pizza. And it was good.

Today I am happy. Let's see if it lasts til noon.

Friend of a friend of a friend reading random LJ entries. And... hey... Is that Jilly's Rock Club on Oxford Road in Manchester? And is it still open? I thought it closed yonks back. I used to be a bit of a regular in my studenty days and even now my mind is going back to watching Lawnmower Death live there one wonderful drunken night.

Yes it is, and yes it is!

We're not regulars, due to the rampaging hordes of 13 year olds moshing on the main floor, but sometimes it's a real blast, and for a fiver you can't complain!
