Where the fuck are we?

Goddammit! I want to see everything Sam West is doing, even if it is in Sheffield. Anyone fancy an expedition or two at some unspecified point in the future? I've already recruited our resident Sam West fangirl and our resident Northerner, any more for any more...

Since it's only a week and a half since I got back from holiday, and I therefore still nurture a certain degree of enthusiasm for doing stuff that isn't collapsing and sleeping forever, ici du hitlist. Crossed out is done, bold is booked, and italic is 'want to', so if you like the look of something in italics let me know before I work up the energy to organise it..

Assassins / Oxford OFS
Revenge of the Sith
Mr & Mrs Smith
Blenheim Palace
Twelfth Night / Open Air Theatre, Regent's Park

Sheffield may be a bit beyond my financial limits right now, but I'm up for Kew, Colindale and anything else London related, and I'm putting in a request for a trip to the Tower at some point... ^_~

(I am, however, boycotting War of the Worlds on the grounds that it has Tom Cruise in it and he has recently taken to loudly airing certain views on the medication of mental illness that I take great offense at, the more so because he is using his fame to spread what is a frankly uninformed and damaging distrust of medication that is already hard for some of the people who need it to get hold of. /rant)

Heh, sold.

(*snickers muchly* Yeah, and isn't the reason he's been sounding so maniacal recently that the Scientologists have taken him off his Ritalin? He's a walking advert for just how well it works :-p)

I wish to apply for more information on a) the McLaren F1 exhibition (are we talking the racing team or the pretty pretty sportscar?) b) anything that involves me finally getting to go to the Tate Modern and c) Chihuleeeeeeeeeeeeeee (despite the fact that my overriding memory of Mr. Chihuly is the huge number of wooden crates his exhibition left in my office when I worked in San Antonio and not anything swirly and glassy. @_@)

Oh, and I boycott WotW too on the "Tom Cruise is an idiot" principle. Also the "germs and not the US Army" principle and the "Victorian England, dagnammit" principle.

/rage at childhood memory spoilage.

Isn't there also the if you want to watch Independence Day watch Independence Day principle?

At last some rationality in our little dbeate.
