Feeling better after evil Step class. Sister In Law was down last night so a Chinese was in order... very tasty but very unhealthy!

Website now over 1000 hits, and making good headway towards the 1100 mark! Sealy's vid really did the trick - Finally, people are keen to get ploughing through the Magnum Opus! So big thanks yet again to Sealgirl and Fay (and Rummi for her very uplifting feedback... hope you liked Episode 2, my dear, and you should enjoy 3 - it's good, tequila-fuelled fun, and includes some shagging at last). Still pecking at Episode 9, but I think I need a long time to sit down to it. I confuse myself a bit when I'm writing about the Black Knight because he's a symbol for a lot of different things, in the story arc and in my own life. Hmmm.

Thinking back a decade, spurred by Sealgirl's post... September 1995 I was 15, in my last year of school, studying for my GCSEs. I think I'd just got the part of Hodel in the school play, which was fun, but, God, I was so painfully shy back then. Really didn't help that at the time there were a few people who claimed to be my friends that were forever putting me down. When people tell you that everything you say is stupid, you start believing them. Somehow I managed to start coming out of my shell in early 96 - a change to contact lenses and a celebrationary drastic new hairdo helped - but I only really started to become myself once I got out of that environment to go to a college where I didn't know anybody in Notts. Then did it again, even more extremely and with an even greater success, self esteem-wise, by upping sticks and fucking off out of Ilkeston to go to Uni in Canters. This is certainly the kind of life I used to hope I'd have back then... nice little flat as far from Ilkeston as I could get, gorgeous hubby, independance... although I wished I could have a little black cat, a cool job, a published book or my own sitcom by now, but then I still wish that! And I could do with still having my friends in Canterbury so I'd be able to see them more often and with greater ease.

Still, off to Smokey for Big Kev's Bidet on Saturday and Spuddie's going to come! She's finally back from Spain... haven't seen her since the wedding.

Hooray!
