You mean you forgot cranberries too?

Nice easy Saturday before the Onslaught-Of-Insane-Christmas-Joy that will inevitably start tomorrow. Have been given a half day at work because it's unlikely many people are going to be coming in to paint at the cafe, on account of being too busy manically shopping etc., so I'll go in about half an hour. Dad and Misha are at Covent Garden looking at the amazing food market (I was there on Wednesday before New Blood, circling all the stalls hoping for free samples, but sadly there was just a man offering free foie gras and nothing else. When I tell people about this they're all, "WHY didn't you take any foie gras???")

Christmas should be good: we're going to see family friends in Chesham, or Amersham, or one of those places...It will hopefully be better than last Christmas anyway, where I spent the last half of the evening drunk and crying (and thinking that at sixteen I was slightly too young to be having a drunk-and-crying Christmas, which just made me feel worse. Ugh, it was a Stupid Moment, let's move on.)

Also: it was really nice to see everyone at New Blood on Wednesday, and to sit talking in that freezing abandoned fairground afterwards.

Also also: Look - it's me!
