My weekend so far, and other stories...

So far, I've had a very good weekend. Yesterday was unifex's birthday, and so I drove up (with assorted housemates in tow) to Hatfield, bearing chocolate, cake, and robotic fish for James. We got there, met with the myriad of other people who had also come to celebrate his Getting Old Day, and lo! It was good.

There was dim sum, and then there was Sweeney Todd, which was a fabulous film. I'm prepared to concede that it wasn't perfect, but as acid drenched gothic pantomimes go, it was pretty good fun.

( Film ramblings. Very light spoilage )

Elsewhere, there was gossip on role playing games, computer games, and Doctor Who*, which was all geeky but fun, and I had an entire conversation with badgersandjam which I don't think I've done before.

We finally left for home a little bit before midnight and got home a little bit before 1 am, which made me happy.

On a totally different note, my brain is not being a very well behaved place at the moment. I'm aware that there is nothing hideously wrong in my life, but I'm finding that I'm suffering from insomnia, feel tired all the time during the day, and find it very easy to panic about things. I'm trying to figure out what is bothering me, but I fear it may just be brain chemistry being daft, so be a little gentle with me over the next week or so!

*On that note, I found a load of discussions about racism in Doctor Who here which I thought becky_spence, and maybe some other folk would find interesting.
