Nonsense -- yay for the Morley!

1. Two weeks ago today getting news that made me literally cry with happiness
2. Being in love

Martin, my friend! I have been remiss in not following this news and I'm pleased as punch to hear about this!

Gosh, mine. Well, no order per se but:

1. Odd fun new leads in the Hunt for An Agent
2. Making some practical decisions now for the next year which will help give me some structure to work with
3. Au Lac's spicy tofu fish hot pot
4. Thanksgiving day and dinner with my dear friend Stripey and her family -- busy, chaotic, and well worth it
5. Thanksgiving Eve with Vic, Di and Arthur going around LA, watching the sun set in the ocean and seeing Colin Farrell go "...*HAGH!*" onscreen
6. So, so SO many cool reissues and things coming out to please my heart -- Cure, Siouxsie, Morrissey (sorta), Tyrannosaurus Rex, Jarboe, etc.
7. Not that I'm biased or have been waiting for a while or really care or anything but you know I do have a slight interest in the minor fact that THE RETURN OF THE KING EXTENDED DVD IS OUT IN TWO WEEKS and you know we'll see and...
8. A slew of fun things coming up -- art gallery next Friday, perhaps, Disneyland with Thea and friends a week from today, a big ol' Xmas gathering of friends two weeks from today, etc. etc., culminating in my Xmas visit home, which will all offset the imminent end of quarter work crunch.
9. Well worthy of a mention of its own -- my upcoming annual December Seattle visit to see the Squirrels Xmas show and hang around with so many great folks -- donut christ, Matos, Morley, Jen, Martin, Casuistry, Jake and many more, perhaps even the great and legendary Le Coq!
10. Something private, for now.

1. The Rockford Files - the attention to detail with shoe sounds is amazing, or maybe people just wore clanky shoes back in the '70's.

3. No more uni to work worry about this year
