Jun. 16th, 2016 01:32 pmMy Camp Sparkle visit was a fantastic success, the only thing that could have made it better was if we could have stayed longer. Meeting up with everyone felt like coming home, and my hug quota has been filled for a little while.
I got to hang and talk with lots of fabulous people, sat and watched Dead 7 -- which was just as terribly awful/amazing as I expected -- drank out of a Chris mug, ate good food and on Tuesday go to Chester for the day, where I spent most of it hanging with![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
sperrywink and for the first time got 10k steps on my fitbit \o/
James also fit in nicely. Enough so I left him watching another movie while I went to bed, and then when he woke the next day he found he'd gone to sleep with a pixi stix in his mouth. Then last night, I was about to go to sleep when James told me that guy I liked was on an episode of Tanked, so I woke myself up enough to half watch Nick and his wife get a new fishtank installed in his house. Which was very nice, and I enjoyed hearing Nick talk about sharks and how water calmed him, and of course enjoyed looking at his wife and imagining her as a warrior priestess.
I also got to see ( this guy who friends of Turlough will recognise. )
The journey home was a bit of a nightmare for the first half as the rain was torrential at times, but we took it slow, stopped often, and made it home in the end.
So yes, Camp Sparkle was fabulous, even if very short.
The Monday we went away was a bit busy as I had my psych appointment, and after that we phoned Corey to ask if he was on his way home from Download, and he said he was, and was nearly back in Newcastle and could we bring him home. So instead of heading straight to Wales we picked the kidlet up, which was good as he was exhausted, and had a mild version of trench foot due to standing in very deep water nearly all weekend. The whole festival was a washout for him and his group of friends. He had to buy a new tent after his first one flooded, had to buy wellies and waterproofs and still he was soaked through after it rained heavily throughout the weekend. He said lots of people went home, and no wonder when the sites looked like ( this )
My psych visit went well too. ( cut for talk of weight stuff )
To end, the latest GoT ep wasn't the best I've seen but one part did make me want to fist pump and go YES! And no, it wasn't anything to do with cock.
