The best thing that happened today was the amazing cheese & smoked paprika scones I made, so tasty I had to put the cooling rack on top of a cupboard whilst they cooled down to stop my cat Poppy eating them. They are supposed to go with the spicy pumpkin soup that I am currently roasting vegetables for, but they may all be gone by the time the soup is ready as they taste too good!

Thing that happened today was putting on a punk compilation cd-r from my teens and realising the weakerthans were exactly the band I wanted to listen to right now.

The best thing that happened today was getting a reassuring email from a friend who i love and respect lots but feared i had lost. the sick feeling i'd had in my stomach has begun to lift.

The best thing that happened today was clearing my desk to give me a workable space for all my zining, mixtape making, and cut & pasting. This was prompted by the acquisition of the rather attractive chair in the photo, a bargain at £5 from Poverty Aid, LS6 based charity shop warehouse.

(the photo looks blurrier when you click on it to make it big as I have the unsteady, gleeful hand of someone who not only finally got a digital camera, but got it secondhand from a lovely lady on the classifieds, and discovered that it *is* linux compatible despite the warning on the box that windows is a system requirement.)

The best thing that happened today was recording three songs for the Robin Osterley covers EP! That's my band, and we have recorded Johnny are you queer, Call the shots and our interpretation of Summer Holiday. Hopefully available on cassette before the end of the year! I especially enjoyed recording my vocals over the tracks we had already put down, it felt like I was singing karaoke to my band :)

Thes best thing that happened today was waking up this morning and seeing my boyfriend Oliver still sleeping peacefully beside me.

the best thing that happened today was cracking the demon jetlag with the help of shampoo, warm winds, canine friends, and dream bitches on LOUD!! i actually feel like i'm in the land of the living again after feeling like a zombie for weeks on end - that's what four transatlantic flights in the space of a month'll do! oh, hello there brain, i'd been wondering where you'd got to!
