Hello Terrorvision. It's been a long time.
Hello Withnail and I. It's been too long.
Goodbye Friday night. We couldn't go out, we were just ruinously exhausted.
Hello Saturday night, and delishfish lasagne courtesy of larians, plus the excellent company of november_girl, ephraim, evilwillow and cyanidemigraine. The music at Jilly's was consistently bopaboutable-to, and apart from one drunk singing to me that he was a creep, he was a weirdo and he didn't belong here (all conclusions with which I vigorously concurred) the night was idiot free.

And the night flowed happily into late talk morning, and the next day turned into sleep/get over terrible hangover/sit around/watch dvds/eat fun size organic bananas day.

None of this can express my contentment. Much as I love words, some things can't be translated, so just for once I will have to trust my memory, and enjoy how good this feels.

P.S. Oh yes, note to self; red or purple hair suits me a lot better than blonde. I am trying to resist my mother's comforting advice to put ringlets in my hair before I get too old for them (her words, not mine). Thanks, mum!

Your hair is fab how it is. As for ringlets...isn't that the entire point of Maelstrom, or have I missed something?

But my hair has been straight forever and ever! one of my sweetest memories of Carrie is of her launching herself at it with electric tongs and curl-enforcing spray, snarling, 'Stand still you wimp! I'm not being beaten by your {expletive deleted} hair!'

was a great night out:-)

As for my mother, well, she thinks curls are for young women, so this is my last chance - soon I should take an inch off a year, and on my fiftieth birthday I'm meant to scalp myself. It's the rules.

I can see that vividly in my head :) I know what you mean about getting bored with straight hair.

But no maelstrom for me at Easter, so I am ringlet denied!
