a very lazy saturday.
spent most of the morning blogcruising and then went to the post office. it is ages since i've posted anything overseas. they now want identification before they'll even consider allowing you to give them the money for postage... the parcels have more stickers on them than anything else - a credit card sized one for airmail, the green customs one that does not have enough space to write everything they want to know and another large vibrant orange one to let the world know that i passed the id parade... what happens if you turn up without id? do they make you sign an oath promising your firstborn? anyway, just to be a cow, i asked for real stamps, not the wanky computer generated labels they are so fond of using these days. the stamps were very pretty and made the parcels look very nice.
i also had a parcel to pick up at the post office. it was a cd burner from slw, one of my oldest and dearest friends - she is determined to get my computer upgraded into the new millennium - thank you!
tonight i went to miss e's for cider and pizza. we watched 'love actually' on dvd and it had the same effect as when we went to see it at the cinema.
the soundtrack took a detour today:
a song is a city : eskimo joe - twice really loud
hopes and fears : keane
son of evil reindeer : the reindeer section
the final straw : snow patrol - at least 4 times - still obsessed...
