Another lovely weekend, with a side of bees and jam

Another lovely weekend with [livejournal.com profile] plumtreeblossom. On Saturday we went to a sheepshearing festival¹ in Waltham with [livejournal.com profile] teratomarty and [livejournal.com profile] trouble4hire (big thanks to them for posting about it!) and had a lovely time. It was great hanging out with them, and great doing country-fair things within easy reach of Boston. (I drove, but the festival venue is bus-accessible.) While there, we bumped into [livejournal.com profile] mrpet and, [livejournal.com profile] lady_anemone. Anyway, after the festival, which was huge amounts of fun, the six of us wandered Moody Street and then had yummy tapas for dinner before [livejournal.com profile] plumtreeblossom and I went back to my house, where we watched the first two-thirds of Lust, Caution.

On Sunday, we went to a Poly Boston dim sum organized by a wonderful person whose LJ name, if he has one, I don't know. We had a wonderful, wonderful time. Thanks so much to the organizer!

Last night was the monthly Poly Boston dinner at Bertucci's (the first one in a while [livejournal.com profile] plumtreeblossom's been able to make it to, because of theater commitments), and tonight [livejournal.com profile] plumtreeblossom, [livejournal.com profile] cathijosephine, and I get to go see Eddie Izzard perform! Life is incredibly full and fun.

And this coming weekend [livejournal.com profile] plumtreeblossom and I are finally making a trip to New York City.

Whee!
¹ Sadly, the venue has already taken down the web page about it. If you are luckier than usual, I will eventually get around to posting some pictures, though. Because, you know, you all appreciated the Topsfield Fair pictures and the pictures of our trip to DC to meet [livejournal.com profile] bcat1 and [livejournal.com profile] spacechicken so much.²
² That I haven’t posted yet. Those pictures.

Wow!

Wow! I just saw Eddie Izzard! With my two favourite people in the world! And he was right there and everything, just thirty-two million billion yards away on the stage, and if I squinted I could see his facial expressions! And it was awesome and wonderful!

I also just opened a kitchen cabinet door and had a shot glass fall out into the sink and hit a mug there and smash into lots of little pieces, but if a flying splinter had nicked my jugular and I were lying on my kitchen floor slowly bleeding to death, I’d still be happy, because I just saw Eddie Izzard.

(Eddie, baby, if you don’t remember where to send the check, my address is linked from my userinfo.)
