I'm not quite in it yet. I'm working on it, but mostly I'd like more sleep. I think I'm going through caffeine withdrawal a bit, since my intake spiked dramatically at work the past couple weeks. So since Matt left, I've been pretty sluggish. But I have a day off today so I'm going to get out there and shop til I drop (and possibly get a massage - I know, could I be more girly right now?). All the holiday lights everywhere are helping my holiday cheer and a good week of solid sleep should work its magic by the weekend.
I had a fantastic Thanksgiving weekend here in London after getting through all the work nonsense Friday evening. It was so wonderful to have Matt here and he was very understanding about me barely getting to see him the first two days of his five day visit. But then as of 6pm Friday we got to be together non-stop. I cooked my first Thanksgiving dinner, which turned out brilliantly, if I may say. We went to my friend Kat's awesome musical-theater-themed fancy dress birthday party on Saturday night which was super fun. I was so happy Matt got to meet my London friends. We dressed as the puppeteers from Avenue Q. Simple, comfortable, yet appropriate. It also helps when your artist boyfriend is able to draw amazing replications of the puppets for props. =) We had drinks with HLord on Sunday night. Also had time to go to a bunch of museums in South Ken - the V&A, the Science Museum, Natural History - Leicester Square, Covent Garden, Knightsbridge, Chinatown, Piccadilly Circus. Saw a pretty awesome street performer who climbed a freestanding ladder in a kilt, and juggled knives at the top. And we went to see "Four Christmases" - which is way better than I expected. Anyway, so we did lots and it was a great weekend. The best part is that I know I get to see him again in just 3 weeks for Christmas with his family. No more of this 7 months between visits, that's for sure.
Anyway, just recapping that weekend has perked me up and motivated me to get out there in London while I can, so I'll post pictures later. Bye for now, kids.
