We're beginning to plan a vacation to the desert southwest this year. In August.

I'm going to Cardiff tomorrow with Mum. We're staying until Monday lunchtime. On Sunday evening I'm going to the final appearance of John Barrowman in panto for this season. Yay!

Have printed off vouchers for restaurants for the weekend, including 40% off at Yo Sushi!

Oh and I recoloured my hair this afternoon.
Mum didn't say a word, so I know she hates it.
Never mind - I needed to look fabulous for my public this weekend and do justice to my new clothes.

LOTS of pictures to follow.

Eh, nothing major. a skin cancer kept coming back and it turns out the bugger did what they don't usually do and made a run for the bone. Thankfully I have a thick skull. Tuesday they took out about a golfball worth of tissue at the exact top of my skull. Pretty freaky to watch but honestly the worst part was the listening.

yikes, lookout! I am glad you are okay. Good for you keeping up on the skin abnormalities.

New with me: been working a lot, actually. I got featured on Etsy's main page yesterday, which was cool. I didn't even know it. Today I am watching my 2 year old niece. Yay!

Ahhh. Now you mention it, the 'skin cancer' thing rings a bell with me. Glad they got it and you're ok.

Ouch, L123. Did they remove bone?

New? Just finishing the blankets for the Disney Give a Day Get a Day thing, ready for delivery on Monday. Hector has taken up hockey at the ripe old age of 10 and is loving it. I'm going to see Ladysmith Black Mambaza on the 1st. Not much.

I lost a crown two days ago during supper. Yesterday was spent at the dentist getting the old tooth prepared for a new crown today.

My mouth hurts!

Today I get the new one cemented on and it shouldn't hurt any more than it does now. I hope. Total cost to me: $200.

Brian

Only $200? Must be a small kingdom.

Goddamn car needed repairs.

Paid a visit to the chiropractor who helped me two years ago, and once again I instantly switched from immobile agony to completely pain-free. The man is awesome.

Found a mystery box in the garage, must have been left by a previous resident, which contained a huge collection of old (blank) postcards from the 1940s. Shipped the whole mess off to a vintage postcard dealer, who's going to tell me if any of them are worth anything.

Been reading up on biofilms.
