deathpixieAnother thing about gathering ficcers together is that it's really hard to stop talking. After saying to the world in general that there wouldn't be another three am talkfest after dropping Raphie off at the station, Yasmin and I proceeded to do just that. I passed out on the sofa bed, so poor Yasmin had a Rossi lying on her feet at one point. I finally crawled out from under the blanket at about 9.30 and had a shower - Yas has only just started stirring. ;)
We saw Moulin Rogue last night. Huge amounts of fun. And Yasmin and I are convinced it takes place in a corner of Subreality. Think about it - people speaking in song quotes, stock characters, narrative causality, fantastic costumes and sets... you know it's true. *grins* And I won't say who we finally decided on for the lead roles. *snickering madly* But yes, I really enjoyed it. I could easily watch it again, although maybe nor at movie prices. Definitely something to acquire on video.
It's been a weekend indeed. Two of my best friends came to visit, Seraph was introduced to both Scrabble and vegetarian food, Yasmin has become a glomp monster, I told my mum about me and BRM...
Arg, the conversation with my parents I'm undoubtably going to have this afternoon after Yasmin catches the train back is not something I'm looking forward to. But I feel better able to do this - I'm not going to let them demonize BRM just because things didn't work out. And I'm not going to let them pressure me into anything I don't want to do. I'm a big girl now, and I love my folks dearly, but there comes a time when they're just going to have to accept that my life is just that. My life. Leanne is right, Mum does tend to live vicariously through me, which is why she's always fretting that I'm not doing spectacularly well, and worrying about me so much. But I'm not responsible for her. I love her, and I respect her, and I'm grateful for what both of them have done for me, but it's my life, and my decisions. *nods* I can do this.
