December:

• Ivo put on 2 amazing gigs at the Blag. Dirty Rev played on the Friday night, and Smokey Bastard played on the Saturday night. It was ace.
• I went out for lunch with Heredge, and we exchanged Chrimble pressies. It was both lovely and delightful. She was furry.
• Went to what might be the best gig of the year, Franz Nicolay, Ben Marwood and Chris T-T at the Rising Sun Arts Centre, a place I barely even knew existed.
• My friend Charlie had her bag stolen and I sent her a replacement copy of the book she was reading. Spreading Atwood love all over the place.
• Dressed up all nice like to go to the pub on Christmas Eve. Managed to not be a dick or make myself sad about Mike’s ex being there.
• Got new scales at work which was very exciting for everyone, except that one of them weighed things really differently to the other.
• Accidentally ran a whole day at work by myself, which went really well and which I really enjoyed. Made me really want the asst manager position.
• Didn’t get asst manager position and got demoted from supervisor for breach of confidentiality.
• Made a LOT of fudge.
• Laptop decided it would be a good idea to pop a hinge out, so glued it all up and bought a little netbook for travel/moving about around the house.
• Had a lovely Christmas day with Mike and duck and a lot of chocolate and presents and Skype and pub and friends.
• Caught up with most of the fab 5, which was lovely.

And here I am, hopefully going to Southampton for New Year’s Eve, but not entirely sure as to how we’re getting there yet. December overall probably the best and worst month, but it’s Christmas and I’m in love so 9/10.
