Stephen & Elisabeth in England
Saturday, 27 November 2004
Countin' Down...
Mood:  hungry
Now Playing: Bob & Doug's Mackenzie's Great White North




(Above is something we saw at a steam-fair...digitally re-mastered for full effect)

It's Saturday, and we've both gotten paid! Wooo-hooo! We've paid a large chunk off the credeit card and are off to spend the day in town.

This last week has been chock-a-block with happenstances:

-Monday: Our phone died! Late one evening whilst Stephen was playing D & D in Camberley, Elisabeth picked up the phone to call the mobile, and alack, the thing was unresponsive. The next day the damn thing was in the bin, and a wonderful new tephalone with a CORD was in its place. It actually provides clear reception, and lots of fun features like memory-dial, holding-music (just give us a call, and we'll be happy to put you on hold so you can try it out), and best of all...speaker-phone. Mark and Jenn, you know what this means...hours of trans-Atlantic hands free talking!

-Stephen has been applying for jobs, and hopefully he can get one in Weybridge where I work...but that would be too conveninent, and British natural law will conspire against it I'm sure.

-On Thursday a few people from Innova got together for an Alternative Christmas party at a Weybridge tapas bar, which was quite intoxicating...But best of all come mid-night, after intaking an unknown quantity of wine, you could see a blond-haired girl swerving down the streets of Surrey on her bicycle in a black-velvet shirt, bicycling furiously to get home in time to wake up well-rested at 7am the next morning...trust me, I was not well-rested!

-Last night our neighbors below broke-up and a screaming match ensued at 3am which went something like:

She: You bastard! You pushed me too far
He: Go home, go home!
She: I hate you, you stupid .....
He: Go home, get away from my car!
(louder now)

She: First you ..., then you....I can't believe...
He: Go home you stupid cow
She: (even louder) ARHHH! I can't believe you're leaving me etc....

It was NOT pleasent.

Ok---enough from me. Now it's to market, to market, to buy...vegetables.

Have a good weekend all!

"So, what do you think?"

...

"What?"

...

"I SAID, WHAT DO YOU THINK?"

...

"About what?"

Oh, the fun we'll have with our double speaker-phone trans-atlantic-delay catching-up phone calls! Wheee!

Ah, but I must disagree. This is an 18 pound space age phone with super duper speaker phone technology and volume control adjustments. I just talk into it as I would talk to a customer at the book store and voila!, E can hear me, if I should happen to walk into our entrance hall and take my shoes off, as though I were a wee Leprachaun whispering into her ear. Or something like that.
