    Another Saturday night with the Frasier boxset and a colouring book. I really know how to live...I'm just not living that way!

    Doesn't sound so bad to me.

  • Awww, poor Gitdog! He's probably hoping that's his last bath until next year now.

    I LOVE Frasier, tea! I used to watch it repeatedly.

    Crossing everything that you are well for your trip, Pyxis! Can we have a photo please?

    I am contemplating whether to watch Lemmy's funeral live, they are streaming it on Youtube shortly. With the thoughts I have been having lately it could either help or make things worse. It's about a 50/50 either way.

    It's not....usually. Just a bit depressing when it's every week.

    Remind me why I'm not on a hot date?? Or any date.
  • This Saturday, like last Saturday, was BBC4 for ne. This week I was watching in super-widescreen though, as I finished installing a projector and screen on the ceiling today.

    If I don't ache too much from all the clambering around in the loft, tomorrow I'll have to watch Star Wars (episode IV) on it to get the full cinematic effect :D

    (yes, I blew the Christmas bonus on buying a projector :o )

    WaS,

    I imagine it would be quite uplifting as he had a very reasonable life span and likely crammed much more into his life than most people - perhaps they'll be the story of him kissing a young lady!

    I don't know your triggers of course, but I would be inclined to think it would be less likely to trigger you and more likely to be enriching. I expect you'll cry though for him and your dad and yourself. Could be a very beneficial experience ultimately. (If WaSp is there, could you have an agreement that he will stop it immediately that he thinks it is detrimental. He should know you well enough to know the difference between a cleansing cry and deterioration).
    :heartsmil When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because these weirdos are your true family.

    Today Gitdog has taken the opportunity to redeem the prize he won at his Christmas party.

    That was this morning and he's still sulking.

    Oooh Elsien! You's soooo crool! :D

    Nah! Of course he must have a bath! Tell him " Cleanliness is next to Dogliness!" :D

    Yes, Elsien, give him one next year whether he needs it or not! :D

    Crossing everything that you are well for your trip, Pyxis! Can we have a photo please?

    Of course! But I've got to get there first!

    Well, as it's a California Forest Lawns one, it might actually be quite nauseating, but that would stop it being a trigger, I suppose.

    Oh Tea, if you only knew how long it's been since I've been on any date! It'd cheer you up no end! Suffice to say, it's in double figures. Any more than that, I'm not saying, as saying it would make it real, and making it real would prove to the world how totally undateable I am. :(

    So, be heartened. And give yourself time to get over all the crap of last year. And to find the real Tea again. :A

    pyxis,

    It is very dangerous to call yourself undateable in 'public' when there is a series called The Undateables on TV.

    We may start getting ideas that you don't like!

    Good morning, folks.

    So I take it Mr Hot Lips has disappeared from the radar altogether then? :(

    Nothing wrong with that! :D

    (((Pyxis))) I'm sure that's not true. There's someone out there for everyone. :)
