So yeah, I hope you enjoyed Halloween. I did. I just chilled out on a couch, eating pizza and watching Juno. I was giving out life advice to the characters in the TV. Out loud. So that I could be heard. Nick pitied me.
So now I’m adjusting to my new home, my new area and my new bus routes. Apart from a short bout of depression, everything’s been fine (thanks to Nick and Sam and Max and Bosco the cow).
Also, it seems that the only way I can get Virgin Broadband is if the engineer wires it over the roof or through my neighbours flat (which involves a kitchen, and having a wire through there is a sin apparently) so the lifestyles of the broadband super fast lifestyle will now be a distant memory. Well, for a year or so at least.
That said, everything else seems to be going okay. Nick and I went to see Dara O’Briain the other night. He was on stage talking about his book, but also about the Albanians, David O’Brian and the English Aborigines (Nick Griffin anyone?).
We also saw "The Informant!" which would have been a normal film if it wasn’t for the amazing music throughout (and Matt Damon’s hairpiece) and "Up In The Air" which made me giggle throughout and had me pining to go on American Airways for some strange reason.
I also saw Up! which just had me very confused emotionally. I was either laughing, sobbing or very excited. Don’t let all the ads that seem to be EVERYWHERE put you off, this is a brilliant film, and being the cinema enthusiast that I am, you have to see this on the big screen. In 3D if you can.
Also, can I just say I couldn’t have hoped for better company. Nick’s been there for me in so many difficult times lately and I would have cracked up if it wasn’t for his kind heart, his wise words and his Dominos pizzas!
