Ok, ok, I suck at the internet... and communication in general, lately, sorry guys. And I know I keep saying this in each of my sporadic postings, but I'm really going to try harder now to keep up with LJ. I haven't been at all, though, for months, so if you've said stuff I should know, link me!

carawj is still my girlfriend, still super awesome. This makes me indescribably happy. We now have a little flat together in Alexandra Palace, and we have board games and a plant and a joint account and everything. :D
* My mother still refuses to speak to me. It's been getting on for eight months now since we exchanged civil words. I'm pretty much gutted about it and I think about it a lot, and however much I think about it, and however much it sucks, I can't think that I would have done anything differently if I'd known it would turn out this way. Not sure what her health is doing, she was on chemo again for a while but I think she's done soon.
* Living in London is still the most fun EVER, especially since now I occasionally have money to actually do things. Plus many awesome people live here and sometimes come to our flat and we feed them cake.
* Jolly excited about going to see Nation soon, and Jim Moray in December. Hoping to get a gang together to go see Camille O'Sullivan, and also have vague plans to see La Cage Aux Folles at some point.
* Finished Unseen Academicals, very much liked it. Nobody writes realer characters than Terry Pratchett. Almost made me actually interested in football for a minute, there.
* Went to Kitezh again for a couple of weeks over the summer, it was brilliant as usual. Kids are over here for a two-week exchange with some Scottish kids, and I got to show them around London because they had a long layover before their flight to Aberdeen! So that was awesome.
* I use the word awesome too much.
* Finally got on the right tax code, had lots of lovely money back just at the crucial moment, so I am spending this month comfortable instead of destitute. Also from here on in I will be £100 a month better off. It was a very wrong tax code.
* My lunch break is ending, so that's all you're getting for now!
