Ya wake up one morning and you find you're a thug blowing smoke rings in some dive.

Damn, I forgot to bring my black nail polish. I was going to put it on leaving work so I'd have one less thing to do on the spot for B-Movie. arkady and I shall be attending, and redcountess is frantically gathering the spoons to do so as well. \o/

Neo peed on the bedroom floor again yesterday. It's unfortunate that this is a hoax. It's only his incredible cuteness that stands between him and a future as mittens and pie. Mmm, pie. Update: He puked at the base of the bed too. Yay for babies!

And now, the weekend poll!

[Poll #590197]

Tonight or tomorrow will be a Date with Arkady. If it's tonight, then tomorrow I plan to attend Slimelight with pixel_person, who has just moved to London to be an artist, model and photographic genius and who I hope to see much more.

Update: Can't work out what to wear? Sort it all out in this order:

• Nice Boots
• Makeup/hair
• Underwear
• Skirt
• Top

You can stop at any of these stages and your appearance will be JUST FINE! And probably suit the likely temperature inside B-Movie.

Update 2: Black nail polish secured from Boots and now living in work bag — cheers to kelemvor for the tip!
