davefish came round for dinner, and seemed to enjoy it, particularly the rather-delayed orange sorbet (I started making it too late in the day, and it wasn't entirely set by the time we finished the first course. But it didn't really matter; we chatted a bit, and began to watch Chasing Amy, and then had the sorbet). DM had also helpfully printed out my article, which I sent off yesterday, along with a copy of my thesis, to the guy at OUP. I do hope he likes it!
My parents seem to be engaging more with the idea of us getting married - they've said they'll organize a cake, and my dad said he had loads of leftover air miles which we could use for our honeymoon. My mother even offered me her own wedding dress, a 60s designer number, which was a kind thought, though I have to say I had a slightly different idea of what I was planning to wear. We've made more plans for the reception; basically things seem to be coming together a bit more.
We'll be in London on Saturday, but not actually for the Anti-War march, which many of my friends, from both goth and geek circles, seem to be planning on attending. We'll be seeing my aunt Chris in Kew Gardens first (which should neatly sidestep the issue of her numerous feral dogs) and later, we'll go to Islington to see G's aunt Val. Then meet up with Doogle for Slimelight, and probably hang around with him for a while on Sunday too (if we're not too wiped out by then!).
Today I shall do some laundry, buy some fruit and veg at the market, and go to the UL.
