Hey Everyone,
I went to Strength Through Joy last night and had one hell of a good time.
I danced like a loon, hung out, shot the breeze with folks and danced some more.
Hopefully all that dancing will be enough to carry me for a while, because the next Strength Through Joy isn't til January, since four Saturdays from now is Christmas Eve.
Chris forgot to put my name on the guest list. Though I did forget to remind him.
I'll remind him in time for the next one.
It was so cold last night. The only way I could face street level temperatures was to wear a white t-shirt, my Opeth Longsleeve, my Stockholm Syndrome T-shirt and then to double jacket with my Blue Denim Jacket under my leather jacket.
And a scarf. And Gloves.
To add insult to injury, after the first hour of frenetic dancing at STJ I was feeling pretty damn warm, so I had to put my Opeth Longsleeve in the cloakroom next to the two jackets.
Backtracking: at the Mac Shop I successfully uploaded the article. Hopefully it will go up without any trouble. After the glitches last time I checked, rechecked and reviewed it to make sure that everything flowed properly and there were no glaring errors.
After that I tried to download the USB driver for my digital camera, but all they had on the website was Windows drivers. A little miffed, I emailed a query to Tech Support at Sony.
Today Sony have replied, saying that there should be no problem, but for further clarification I should check page 86 of my manual.
Which I will do when I get home.
I bought some more jeans from Matalan. Two black Wrangler straight-legs and a pair of boot-cut distressed-denim blue Lee Coopers, just because I'm such a slave to fashion. When I get home I'll take a carving knife to the labels.
I digress in random directions. As usual.
After taking the tube home I dumped the laptop in my closet and hit the street again, this time heading to the Cafe/Gallery electronica thingo I had read about in that random poster.
It turned out that the cafe/gallery is part of a volunteer run project to take over derelict buildings and use them for some kind of community-positive thing like art classes etc. And weird events.
I chatted to a few people then jumped on the tube to STJ.
After STJ I took the #41 to Trafalgar Square then the #8 back to Leytonstone. Strange that when you are wearing a scarf you head doesn't loll so much when you start to nod off.
When the bus arrived in Leytonstone I headed back to the Gallery Party, which I knew from reading the running list would still be going. By this time it was populated by various hipsters and students. Not really my kind of folk, but interesting none-the-less.
After sunrise I schlepped back to the flat.
I may yet do some more schlepping before the day is done.
Over and out.

Tonight I want to go see VNV Nation in Islington. They might not really be my thing, but I figured
