This and that

LJ down for an entire day! I felt so bereft. However, it did mean that I was able to clean the whole house from top to bottom. Had LJ been around, it would have lurked here alluringly, like an importunate lover, whispering, "I am far more exciting than cleaning. Come away with me and I will show you wonders unimaginable."
On Friday night, we went to the 25th birthday party of my ladies' Morris dance side, which was fun. We walked the three miles there, and got a lift back. I never like phoning someone up and saying, "I'm not prepared to drive there tonight, so can you give me a lift?" but if I've walked there myself, and someone who's already made the decision to drive there chooses to offer me a lift home, then that's a different thing entirely. It was a nice evening for a walk. I love these clear winter days, and cold, crisp, starry winter nights. (Not so fond of the constant "wheee... BANG!" of said nights, though, especially when they happen after I've gone to bed.)
The buffet was so huge that everyone filled a second plate and took it home with them. However, I'd had quite a lot wine by the time I assembled my second plate of food, so lunch yesterday was a strange and interesting medley of cold buffet food. Ham and tuna featured, much to the delight and frenzy of my cats, who resorted to incredible feats of trickery and double bluff in order to get a bite.
At the party, there was a competition to identify people from their baby photos. Almost every picture was deemed "impossible" to identify, except for mine, which everyone in the room got. I think I ought to be mortified. Apparently I've not changed a bit since I was one.

Pellinor's off LARPing today. He got up early and fed the cats, but they are currently stomping around me, telling me in no uncertain terms that that horrid, cruel nasty man completely failed to feed them, and they're starving to death, poor things. I don't think cats have any moral qualms.
