The news in breif...

Went to Char's, had a fab time, got a little drunk, ate Char's mums patent fried chicken (better than the colonel's and half the price) and generally did the happy birthday reminiscing about college thing. It was pretty cool actually cause Bunny hadn't heard all the old art college tales so we filled him in. He's loostened up enough to actually speak to me now which is also good.

Kat and the boywonder are home safe, sound and not a moment too soon. They seem to have brought all the most important bits with them, leaving only household stuff and a few misc other bits in storage, and Kat's now blissfully ensconsed in a nice bathtub full of bubbles.
Having been awake for 36 hours, she looked a whoooole lot better than I thought she would. Full marks on stamina, not even including the lingering mono.
Don't expect to see her awake till tomorrow lunchtime though :p

It's good to have them home though. It's really, really good. :D

Ohh, and they brought me POCKY!
Really, really fucking HUGE boxes of pocky! And MAN pocky! Heeeee
Charlie's going to hate my guts.

Christmas decs should be going up tomorrow and I'm finally starting to feel properly seasonal.

Oh, and the boywonder *bless his beautiful wonderful heart* managed to get me the BFO cast recording in Canada.
I'm not allowed to have it till Christmas, but darnit at least I know I GOT IT!

:D

*grins madly*

It's a Japanese/Chinese snack food. It's like a long, thin, cylindrical, sweet cracker, dipped in chocolate or fruity candy or nuts or whatever. It's very very popular among the Asian population but it's incredibly hard to get here. These are like jumbo boxes, 20 times the size of the ones we can get imported.
Ergo... very excited. :D

We do get Chinese Supermarkets, but they're few and far between in this part of the country. We have mostly Indians here so I can get sari silk for next to nothing. If I want pocky I really got to HUNT for it.

No, the city I live near has the second largest Indian population in the country. We don't have a China Town we have a Little India Golden mile. There's like 1 chinese supermarket in the whole county, everythign else is Indian.

Eh, it's a *THING*... it's fun to get surprised by it but I'm too lazy to actively hunt it down. I like it mostly because it makes Charlie make that high-pitched bat-like sound in outraged jealousy... :D
