Scribblings from the Mitchy Side

Realised this morning that I left my last decent pair of work trousers in the hotel in NYC. Dammit. So I had to dash out and buy an emergency pair to wear this week. I've ordered a couple of other pairs from a good online company too, so I'll get those for next week.

Ah well, I badly needed to overhaul my wardrobe anyway. Now I just need to find good shoes for work, at least two pairs. I'm fussy about shoes, takes me ages to find what I like :)

Last day of freedom, so excuse the short post, but all this nothing won't get done by itself :D

I still didn't manage to get up early but I DID get into WGC to change the jeans I bought online. Happily, I was able to find two more pairs in the store that I could do a straight swap for, so now I have two pairs of jeans that fit. Hurrah! It's lovely to be able to go out without a) worrying I'm going to moon WGC town centre and b) be able to keep things in the pockets without the extra weight aiding the debagging process :P

Having nipped home to hastily change into new fitting jeans, I scampered over to Stevenage to see "Quantum of Solace" with thalinoviel. Excellent Bond film, I mean it, really good. Not sure if I liked it more than "Casino Royale", but it certainly matches that movie for quality. My only gripes were with some unecessary shakey!cam during high speed car chases and a couple of bits of really ropey CGI. Otherwise, I cannot gripe at all, the story was good, the fight scenes outstanding and the set pieces well up to Bond standard. Go see it if you can, it's worth it :)

Afterwards, we scampered over to McD's, having paused in momentary horror thinking it had snowed again while we were in the cinema. The word "jinx" was being muttered but to our relief, the white stuff on the pavement outside the cinema turned out to be soap suds :) In relief, we happily scoffed burgers, guzzled tea and yakked our heads off for over an hour :)

And now I'm home, all sleepy-like, and pondering a nice, quiet evening. I'm off to London tomorrow afternoon to meet up with Rik and Carol so I MUST make sure I get good sleep tonight!

Went shopping today, raided Evans thanks to a shiny new store card. I now have stuff to wear to Chess and the concert. I may have stuff to wear the nightclub next Saturday if I go, but I'm going to consult with thalinoviel first. :)

Hee!

Two more sleeps! Heeeee!!
