Now that adding an advogato entry is as simple as typing ‘advo<tab><enter>’, I’ll probably make more regular contributions to this particular form of entropy. Thanks to raph and gary.
It was a good time to move into the Spankyhouse. Everyone else is down in Melbourne, so I’m kind of without close friends. Having the spankies around has been good, certainly better than keeping to my only-self (even if I’ve already ‘made passes’ at Mary and Andrew’s sisters, depending on your perspective or relative inebrity).
Wine, Cheese and Poetry was good, although a bit less bold and lively than the ones I’m used to. I think there was a bit of group dissonance though; not everyone was familiar with everyone else, and it seems there’s some undercurrent between those that did. I pulled out an old DAAS favourite and some Ani Difranco, and read Jamie’s John Donne.
I also read out of a little front-of-shop Love book that Silke gave me way back when, after having a short fossick through my special box. I should have avoided the special box; there’s always a little Pandora in there waiting to get out. This time it was photos of me with Louisa. Odd. Melanie and Silke - who were invited - did not turn up.
Mary read the humorous diary of the day out in the style of a pirate (not necessarily a pirate’s voice). “Haw haw.”

I’ve been listening to No Doubt, which is more surprising to me than it should be to you, dear reader. Specifically, “Spiderwebs” (Louisa in France), “End It On This” and “Come On Eileen”. Not my usual fare.
vino
Disappointed to see Amelie not receive an Academy Award. Drank quite a bit of wine whilst watching the ceremony. Nice having my favourite white as an unexpected leftover (I thought I was disappointed that someone had drunk it, but no one had!) from Swine, Sheets and Buggery.
