Stephen & Elisabeth in England

Buh?
Mood:  lazy
Now Playing: Thump thump from whatever the guy downstairs is playing
'Buh?' pretty much sums up this weekend. Yep, we did a big fat zero. Lessee...

Yesterday: A trip to the library and lots of reading. Elisabeth got out a book on etiquette and manners and we were pleasantly surprised to discover that we actually know what we're doing when it comes to this kind of thing. And how many people who think they do actually don't. I finished up Douglas Coupland's Girlfriend in a Coma and was reminded by how, as a writer, he irritates me so now I'm reading a book about what it's like to be a pimp. It's called Pimp and written my a dude named Iceberg slim with an introduction by Ice T so you know it's legit. It's also got a glossary of 'pimp' terms which is handy. ... If our money troubles over here keep persisting, I know a way to book me some scratch.

Today: We went on a tour of the local theatre where Jack the Ripper's going to play and went to Carters Steam Fair. Those of you who've been following this web site might remember the fun we had there last year in Englefield Green on the bumper cars (Dadgem's in England) and how Elisabeth flirted with one of the carneys. Well, that same damn carney was there this year and, low and behold, who starts taking pictures of him? Hmmm... I made sure they were all deleted post haste... We were also good and resisted the urge to spend money. So instead we headed home where Elisabeth baked some cakes and melted part of the carpet.

What can I say? Carnies have a je ne sais quoi (and this one looks just like Stephen with Blond hair) cute as a button.

She pre-heated the oven and there was a try in it. Since all our counter space was filled with dirty dishes, she put it on the carpet and voila, one shiny, rectangular melted patch of carpet.
