(For

lilysea, since she missed me on the phone. Also, happy posts are fun)

Today was great. Went to

lizbyrds engage-ama-christmengagement party and drove all the way there and back: over an hour for my logbook, and I didn't run over a single pedestrian! Just now my mother in law rang up to say they'd visit us for xmas to save us the drive to rockingham and I was like "No really, we don't mind" :)

FINALLY met

flyingblogspot, who I've seen on so many people I know's ljs that I assumed I must know her, but as it turns out I didn't (but I do now) There was an amusing amount of "Do I know you? What's you lj username? Oh wow! I know you!"

Had very nice conversations on the verandah with tasty sophie friendly food *looks at that sentence. Realises it doesn't say what I mean it to. Decides to leave it as is*

On the way out

distantcam got to show ff his manliness by helping

dr_jekyl change a tire.

And just now we saw "The Simpsons Movie", which was fun, though I think it would have been better on the big screen. Next, episode one of Life on Mars!

Saw pilot of "Northern exposure" last night as an alternative exercise tv show to Star Trek DS9, it's actually as good as I remember, which is a nice suprise. Though Dr Joel has gone from "Cute but kinda old" to "cute but kinda young" :) (EDIT: except he was actually the same age as me. I suck at guessing ages :))
