Two weeks in London!
Nov. 22nd, 2002 09:06 amOnly six more days until our return flight leaves for Dulles Airport. I don't think we will be on it. HAH! :)
Yesterday I finally got to hang out with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sexbat, who is the undisputed king of Goofy-as-Fuck MP3s. From punk and techno covers to outrageously silly remixes, I was rolling on the floor of the infamous Pit. Also got to taste some of the world-famous* Sexbat cuisine... omelettes for lunch, and pasta with peppers, sun-dried, tomatoes and mushrooms with garlic bread for dinner. YUMMY! Also got to ride in a car (sure is strange to be sitting in the left-hand front seat and not have a gas pedal beneath my right foot) and pet CATS for the first time since my arrival, and met the elusive Juliet, who's a really nice gal. All in all a highly enjoyable day. Then I headed off to meet up with bitchbat at the coach station. She was bored out of her gourd in the country and glad to be home! We are going out to Electric Ballroom tonight, back to the land of goths and dancing for her! w00t!
Tomorrow it's off to Edinburgh for Vain, my first guest DJ gig in this country. Our train leaves at 1 p.m. and arrives slightly before 6. Simon asked what I plan on playing, and since I have been unable to practice and there really hasn't been much space to rifle through the CD collection, I haven't done much advance set-planning at all. I did look at their old setlists though, and it seems to be more of an EBM-synthpoppy type place, so that's easy enough. Besides, no one in Europe would possibly notice if I play the "same old set I always play" ;)
It seems that even with my switch to drinking more beer, all this walking has made me unable to escape the universal fate of Americans in London: losing weight. I'm down 5 pounds ugh. Must eat fish and chips for lunch today. I have, however, now weighed myself in stones! (I won't tell anyone how much because obviously that would make me a BITCH. For existing. Sorry, a comment made a few days back is still rankling) On the plus side my legs are now solid as rocks! Why join a gym when you can move to London!
Anyway off to the bank and to get ready for this weekend!
