Happy Birthday timeplease

[lnr]

I had a nice time at August's party last night, though there were some rather stressful moments and not everyone seemed ot be having the best of times, not least the host, which was sad. I discovered that I can't play the mandolin or the bass, and still can't play the guitar, but did briefly get something sounding like music out of Dom's sax. (fnar!). Lots of nice food and drink (oops). In fact so much lots of the latter that I really must apologise to Rachel for apparently telling her my entire life history, not sure quite how I got into that!

Hopefully will be celebrating with the karate graders this afternoon, once I hear how they've done. I might stay off the booze though.

Feel like I ought to stay off the food too after this week :-/ Nice dinner out with Mike Monday, nice dinner in on Thursday which was nearly as disastrously calorific, and then a slightly over quota dinner on Friday, but I dread to think how much I consumed yesterday, and I just don't seem to have much motivation to eat sensibly today, though I guess I'll just have to try. Oh well, even if I gain weight this week (weigh in tomorrow morning since I wasn't at home today) I'm still well down on the start of the year, and I still know I can keep going, so it's not the end of the world. It's just painfully slow going sometimes, and I just feel so *fat* sometimes.

And I wish I could make people happier. Andrew, August, Jan: they're all fed up in various ways and I can't seem to help and with Andrew at least I only seem to make things worse. I just don't know what to do.

How on earth can they manage to be not worksafe?

Having seen them this afternoon, I know what he means. They were taken from a rather low angle! It was lovely to finally meet you, even if we didn't really get a chance to talk very much.

It's not so much the low angle as the fact that you are playing the saxophone by blowing out of your left eye socket (http://pics.livejournal.com/hairyears/pic/0003pyw0).

This is disturbing, and not at all worksafe.

The low angle is due to someone's boot being in the way of all other shots.

Watch this space (http://pics.livejournal.com/hairyears/gallery/0000ep6f), I'll get around to posting the others.
