Best thing that happened to you today?

I get you, I have that with a lot of songs. Sorry to hear you're homesick Jester :( not much of a consolation but it does pass. Funny Meatloaf related story though, when I was living with my parents in the house they moved into, I was home alone and decided to listen to Meatloaf and belt out the female part of "I'd do anything for love"... not realising I had an audience of a lot of builders standing outside my kitchen window which was open. Mortified.

Thanks, I know it'll pass just things going on to make me miss home. =) Haha, that is quite funny. I used to sing duets on the bus to college with my friends of that song... And I really can't sing. (Sometimes I'd be doing Meat and he'd be doing the female voice, which was always amusing.

Ah, I was just looking it up; apprently it's called The Meat Loaf Story now, but from what I can see it's pretty similar. Steve Steinman (no relation to Jim!) is a Meat Loaf impersonator, so it's essentially a Meat Loaf concert. He's really good, too. Especially as, now, Meat's voice is all bust and he can't sing any where near as well as he used to be able to. =( (So jealous of my dad actually having seen him live, but everyone of my age who has seen him recently has either been disappointed or had the show cancelled.) It's definitely worth checking out if you like Meat! Show is touring in Manchester on the 25th of March. =)

oh I know! My uncle saw him live a few years back and apparently he had to stop the set halfway through to be given oxygen! I'm so jealous of my uncle! He once saw Queen IN BRADFORD as a support act for £1.50. And he saw Thin Lizzy (I THINK) in the Netherlands and got invited to their aftershow party! Which is just insane!

oooh, I didn't know that was coming! I might have a look at it and persuade dad that mum would like it :)

okay, that is too awesome!! Good luck!!


best thing for me today is kinda weird. I'm so... grateful? that my dad was in the RAF for 9 years today. He totally gets my not-wanting-to-go-back feeling and he's being really supportive and looking after me, I'm currently in bed trying to get rid of this nausea and he's just come up with some food and a drink for me and he let me watch Top Gear this afternoon for 2 hours. I can't explain how nice it is just to have someone here who understands - my mum doesn't get it but my dad just understands things - and he can comfort me so much better because he's been through it.

I know I have to go back but I don't want to at all - and I'm just really appreciating him today.

My new babies are here! And they're all alive (I always worry my fish will die in transit)
