Sometimes, life is just unbloggable.
It's a bit of an arse really, because it tends to completely overwhelm the odd bits of bloggable life that happen in the middle of it. Then every time you go to blog about those bloggable bits, the unbloggable bits threaten to burst out, like an unintentional mid-word belch at a posh dinner party.
Best not to go there really.
Instead, I'm getting myself geared up for a week and a bit of social whirling, the likes of which I rarely do.
It actually kicked off on Saturday, with a trip to the land of NotLondon where I learned how to crochet with Threshers carrier bags and continued on Sunday with brunch in Balans with Faruk and Fatty, which concluded with a trip to the apple store on Regent Street, where I tried (successfully) to repress the urge to stuff a 17" MacBook Pro down my cleavage.
Tonight saw me visiting a friend who's been stuck in Barts hospital since last Wednesday.
Tomorrow I get to catch up with Christine again, which will be fabulous. Even better, there'll be knitting involved.
Wednesday will see me trying to resist the urge to skip my physiotherapy class and also the start of the @media festivities.
Thursday and Friday I'll be attending @media and the various social events which have been organised around the main business of the conference. If you're going to @media and see me ambling around, do say hi.
Saturday has several options for being sociable, and is far too far away to be able to decide which options are going to be taken.
Sunday will be mostly occupied with getting myself all rocked up. The girls are back in town! Def Leppard are at Hammersmith and it'd be rude not to go see them live, after all this time.
Monday will probably be spent recovering, so it's just as well I booked the whole week off really - a week in which I intend to relax, knit, socialise and probably do some stuff related to the unbloggables.
So why am I telling you all this?
Well partly because it's such a rare event that I'm such a social butterfly and I wanted to note it down, and partly to explain why I might go quiet again over the next few days.
Of course, having said that, the odds are that I'll suddenly start blogging lots.
Anyway.
Busy. Backson.
See you @@media, then! (And it's nice to have you back blogging).
Ooh Def Leppard! Have fun!
"Busy. Backson." made me grin all over my face.
Wooh, see you @ @media then!
Glad all's improving and so on still.
You can get a 17-inch powerbook in your cleavage?
I reckon you could have stuffed TWO macbooks down your top, no problem.
See you at @media. But knew that already.

I hope last night left you with a few bloggable bits. I had such a fabulous time and can't wait to see you again! I might just have to crash the @media parties.
Def Leppard were pretty great last Saturday, so I hope you'll enjoy them as much as I did!
Love the idea of unbloggables - I know exactly what you mean!
