You got me off the sofa (at long last).

Wow, it's been one of those wonderful days of ups and downs.

*At 10 I was told by the hospital after waiting over an hour for an appointment that I needed an X-Ray. The waiting list for non-urgent X-Ray referrals is 15 weeks. Oh yes. It will be after Christmas before they get back to me.

*At 12 today Tom told me I have a ticket to Bestival.
Oh yes! Scissor Sisters, Jamie T, Mystery Jets, Klaxons, Guillemots, The Young Knives, and more. A whole weekend on the Isle of Wight! And it's free! All expenses paid! All I have to do is some rallying for STW.

*Spent several hours in Stratford drinking Coca-Cola, looking in Maplin Electronics Store and milling around.

*I owe the library £29.40. That's far too much.

*At 4 went to see an exhibition of anthropomorphic cats. It was too late. Exhibition was closed. Drinks in The Phoenix instead.

*Just as I got in Teardrop came on the radio and it was dark and the fairy lights were glowing and the window was open and I lay and listened in my little green room on my double bed wearing socks and ballet pumps and had one of those intense moments.

The best things come from nowhere. Suddenly everythings unfamiliar and exciting and happy. How I hope this lasts.

OK, I don't think you missed out with the cats.

Plus intense moments never happen to me. Invite me round for your next one please.
