Oh, I'm having a Good day :-)

Thursday was good too, with a documentary about early female astronauts with beautiful photography of clouds, tea and home-made cake with [livejournal.com profile] hilaritas, dinner and talking to friends at Geek Pub, then back to the cinema for a time travel film that was actually quite satisfying. They usually annoy me.

Today I had a nice hour's walk in the sunshine to the hairdresser; thinking about tomorrow's pancake party I realised I could make a duck and hoisin sauce filling. A Sharpie-decorated room posted by [livejournal.com profile] marypcb clicked in my mind with my ideas for the downstairs bathroom, and I think I'm now in a position to actually do something with it! I might need help from someone to climb around the bathroom with string and pencils at some point. And I'm going to need a lot of Sharpies.

Skirting Tesco and Sainsbury's, I bought a lot of staples for pancake-making from the Co-op, and now I'm going to enjoy walking along Mill Road and buying things from Bacchanalia, Northrop's, Arjuna and Al-Amin.

When I read, my brain often supplies helpful words which are not exactly the ones on the page (this happens more often when reading on-line, for some reason). So instead of "bathrooms" I saw "ballrooms". Huh, I thought, Bug has not just one ballroom, but multiple ones? Just how big *is* this house of hers?

She'd need a lot more than $10 worth of Sharpies, too.
