it's hard to imagine with the way I feel today

cool weekend so far: went back to Sin City for the first time in forever with sea_cucumber and a bunch of people she's listed (most of whom tick the 'Egham People' box in my brain but actually seemed quite a disparate group)- there was much dancing to cheesy metal and then I got kidnapped by Hungarians and made to play endless games of table football

then last night to Behind Bars with T. which was cool but frustrating too: the event was awesome, well, for once the performances I caught weren't that great but it was rammed and buzzing, but I's acutely conscious that had I gone to an equivalent event in Sydney, after living there for a year, there would have been a whole bunch of people I could talk to whereas in London, despite having been sporadically involved in that scene for six or so years, there were only a couple of people there I knew, and at this stage I don't really see that changing, which is a downer cos it's exactly the community I would like to be part of [in addition, not instead of etc.]- what I need is a C. who will take pity on me & welcome me as a foreigner in my own city; ended up pretty nackered too & leaving (relatively) early

have hung out at Ben Crouch's, the Jugged Hare & Trash Palace (after its slightly alarming revamp) amongst these, caught up with ketchgirl, stealthracer and enjoyed the eerie quiet outside of barty's flat, have failed to make two Burma-related demos though; today I chill out here and try to get to bed before 4am

one thing I did like about last night [just in case there's anyone left on my flist I've not alienated yet] was coming home smelling of smoke; there's something incredibly powerfully and nostalgically erotic about coming back on your own to your room after a night out and in the dark stripping off clothes that smell of other people's smoke

Behind Bars sounded interesting. However that on top of everything else would have been mad. :-(

yeah, sounded like you had a pretty packed weekend: glad things went well at the GP meeting!

I remember that feeling from back when I didn't smoke myself. Mmmm...nostalgia.

yeah, it's really not the same when it's your own . . .
