Once there was this girl who
Wouldn't go and change with the girls in the change room
But when they finally made her
They saw birthmarks all over her body
She couldn't quite explain it
They'd always just been there

Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm

That song by the Crash Test Dummies has always been one of my favourites, more for the melody than the words, except on this occasion. The dermovate is working, and what Dr Maim claims is psoriasis is gone. I have decided to accept the doctor's diagnosis because it gives me a great reason never to wear one of those itchyclumpyhorribleugly winter jumpers ever again in my whole life. They can all go to charity shops to torment other people. I may freeze but my skin will be at peace.

I can feel some sparkle returning. Gave up caffeine (trying to cut down on toxins you see) two weeks in and the headaches have stopped. Beginning to feel a lot better. I'm going to write soon, I think.

*beams at you* have a great weekend!


[Amended to add: For bytepilot my dear Duke of Darkness, I'm posting this here so it doesn't get lost in the avalanche of prehistoric lj notifications everyone is suffering. 17/18th Dec is impossible because we won't be around until Sunday evening. You are welcome to drop by then, though knackeredness may make us less than interesting hosts! Is another date possible?]

All things are possible* Oh jewel of the desert dawn.
Though later rather than sooner may have to suffice.

I shall not let a mere matter of logistics prevent us from curling up on a sofa, drinking wine and talking nonsense.

*Except skiing through a revolving door

january looks more doable, though i am waiting on info. My dear one is away from 16th - 20th and 23rd -27th, so if you are around the grim north, you would be rescuing me from an evening of simpsons and christmas movies no-one cares about any more.

However, these are mid-week, so I gather this may not be feasible.

More info on free new year weekends as soon as I can (how can this be so difficult?)

I should be able to grab a few days leeway between the 23rd and 27th.

For some reason I am not surprised that the 23rd has come up as a day upon which the usual chaos of our lives may throw us together for a while.

I'll press some buttons at this end and see what can be made to happen.

Drat!

I have just been reminded, Sunday evening's a no-no! January it will have to be...

Either I need a secretary or we need to re-format the century.

Re: Drat!

Reformatting the non removable century, 2000-2100, will cause all data to be erased.

Proceed ? (Y/N)

*tears hair out*

That'll teach me to trust auto-archive.

Still, better safe than sorry. Get rid of it all. Start at 1971 just to be sure.

Do we have to have the 70's all over again ?

Can't we at least edit out bri-nylon...?

Re: Drat!

We'll override all that with something better. White leather boots! Space stations with bubble wrap around them! Teepee cities, peace on earth and parties in Goa that don't end until the 90s!

Admit it, my dear, mine is a better version.

Admit it ?
Darling girl i revel in your vision of the past, soon to become the future.

Let the giggling and pointing at non existant objects commence!
